I do find that if I eat something for breakfast I am starving by 10, I guess thats my metabolism kicking in. <BR/><BR/>Anyways Thanks for the advice, tomorrow BREAKFAST!Food Comahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10982995804147402153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4634407137870663017.post-20620824058648315522009-01-18T11:43:00.000-05:002009-01-18T11:43:00.000-05:00For years I didn't eat breakfast because I was the...For years I didn't eat breakfast because I was the same way -- wake up and get out the door ASAP. Eff breakfast. I started because everyone said it would make a difference with my weight loss and it did. I can tell a big difference when I eat breakfast. It helps me wake up faster and doesn't leave me STARVING by lunch time, which helps me make better choices during my lunch break. That said, I still don't eat much -- a bowl of instant oatmeal and a piece of fruit and I'm good to go. Sometimes I try to get by with a latte as breakfast but it's never quite the same.FAT BRIDESMAIDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03230039625994850366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4634407137870663017.post-18504660624460393242009-01-17T23:12:00.000-05:002009-01-17T23:12:00.000-05:00I used to never be a breakfast eater either...my p...I used to never be a breakfast eater either...my perfunctory cup of coffee was my get-me-up. Once I really set about trying to lose weight, however, I read so much about eating breakfast that I decided to give it a try. That was over a year ago, and now breakfast is my favorite meal of the day! Like Roni said, even if you just grab a piece of fruit or a meal bar or some instant oatmeal, something is better than nothing!Joannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17133232352924060797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4634407137870663017.post-18811448476178787802009-01-17T21:37:00.000-05:002009-01-17T21:37:00.000-05:00I'd grab just a piece of fruit.

Plus you get a fruit in. :)Ronihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09163366730497010244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4634407137870663017.post-64704437207724848502009-01-17T21:36:00.000-05:002009-01-17T21:36:00.000-05:00I think that breakfast serves the function of jump...I think that breakfast serves the function of jump-starting your metabolism, and getting your blood glucose levels stabilized which are at that point in the morning pretty low. I have two philosophies:<BR/>1. I do not think we should eat unless we're hungry. And that applies to almost any time of day.<BR/>but I do know that<BR/>2. We need to jump start our metabolism and regulate our glucose levels to make sure we don't binge later.<BR/><BR/>I would experiment with this and eat breakfast, and see how I eat throughout the day for maybe a week. If you feel better, and are eating less/healthier then do it. If it hasn't changed anything and you just feel like it hasn't impacted anything, then i say, stick to what you're used to. <BR/><BR/>Sorry this ended up being so long. Hope that helps.Kudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13967668285238283972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4634407137870663017.post-79944806717409999092009-01-17T19:52:00.000-05:002009-01-17T19:52:00.000-05:00I use to never eat breakfast until I met Liam. I ...I use to never eat breakfast until I met Liam. I slowly started eating something in the morning and honestly I feel better throughout the day now. I believe that Breakfast is the most important part of the day ... if you eat the right things you can go a long time without eating, you feel better and your metabolism gets kicked into start right away. Caffeine I would think isn't that good to be drinking in the morning and counting that as your breakfast ... <BR/><BR/>Maybe start small??Crystalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00171090285181578498noreply@blogger.com
