Most Important meal of the Day?

Breaking your nighttime fast is important. It starts to ramp up your metabolism and gets you going in the morning. If you think about it, most people expend more energy first thing in the morning as they ramp up the activity for the day. As far as what you are saying, however, think of it this way. If you are not hungry than there is no reason to Break your fast. Get a drink (don't think coffee is the best) water or juice. Then don't eat until you are hungry. I think most people break their fast first thing in the morning because they know that they will not be able to do so in the middle of the morning, with work or school going on. So if your breakfast is at lunch time it is the most important meal of the day. :)

i have heard all my life that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. i like to be up awhile before i eat & alot of people like to sleep as long as they can. since i can't work anymore i eat breakfast when i get ready, sometimes it's closer to lunch.i've always eaten breakfast tho even when i worked.

I agree!! Strongly agree!! Breakfast IS the most important meal of the day. Because you just had nothing to eat for the previous 7-8 hours (i.e. night). And your body does twice as much as work it does in the day. SO it also needs the fuel. People can even faint if they don't have their breakfast and go to work without it!! Its may be your metabolism but I am super hungry in morning. I just wake up, brush my teeth, take bath and shout for my breakfast. AS I love my breakfast to be hot served.

I avoid breakfast like you. Whatever others say OK, it is our stomach to fill. If we can leave it empty without filling dangerous acidity, fine. But I take a moderately good lunch. Evening I like take a light dinner. This keeps my body weight constant for many years. Still I have some potbelly. I want to reduce it sincerely.

I think breakfast is the most important one.. Though I am not sure :) I sometimes skip it :D Have a nice day..

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, not they biggest. After all you are "breaking a fast" (unless you can eat in your sleep). I always try to eat breakfast, some times its just toast with butter, it just depends how hungry I am or what I have in at the time. But everyone is different, if you are okay not eating till lunch, getting your 5 fruit and veg a day, then I don't see much of a problem. I dunno what time you normally get up, but you could always try eating breakfast later, if your work (or what ever) allows you to. On another note also heard that you should drink 2 pints of water when you wake up, because you lose alot from sweating in your sleep.

I would never skip breakfast. It is hard to get accustomed to if you have lived without it for a long time but once you eat breakfast on a regular basis you ll notice that you do better in life. Eat regulary and in small portions.

Hi acevivx, I know that we are supposed to eat breakfast because they say it is the most important meat of the day, but I very rarely ever do. I'm just not a big breakfast eater. I never really was. Even when I was working I really didn't eat correctly. I would grab and donut or a bagel and cream cheese, but neither were the proper breakfast foods. Now that I am currently not working I don't even it anything sometimes until dinner. I never was one to eat normally. Well, I don't exactly do anything normally for that matter! I happen to like my breakfast for dinner anyway! But I do know that people that I know that do eat normally and have breakfast are more alert and more prodcutive.

I don't normally eat breakfast, I'll just have a glass of juice and then coffee! Some of my friends also tell me that breakfast is an important meal of the day, I try to have a small breakfast, like cereal or fruits, but most of the time I don't feel like to eat! I think for me lunch is my important meal.

On my opinion the most meal of the day is our breakfast.But i do skip my breakfast and having a coffee only.I'm trying to eat my breakfast but i am not use to it.My wife is always telling me that the breakfast is very important for a person because after our dinner we don't have foods takes by our body.

According to me break fast is more important than lunch. If you not hungry please take some soup or fruit juice.

I think lunch is an important meal but then having breakfast in the morningis also essentially good as it makes u feel good and above all energitic.Atlast a cup of milk and a lille cereal is also good incae if u dont want to have proper breakfast.Even a fruit would also do good to make u fresh.Having diner lightly before u go to sleep is always good. Regards

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day since that is the time we are active. Our body needs energy to keep us going.When you skip breakfast you are likely to become tired when your brain and body run low on fuel. By lunch you are hungry, crabby and perhaps your mood might make you a little more prone to make unhealthy choices at lunch. Skipping breakfast is a common strategy by some women to lose weight.But it is not a smart idea.Many people believe that they will lose weight if they skip meals but that just isn't true, the body expects to be refueled a few times each day starting with breakfast.Actually eating breakfast is good for weight lost. In fact people who eat breakfast are more likely to maintain a healthy weight.

I disagree with this because skipping breakfast is not good, from the breakfast we get more energy than the lunch or dinner. I do not say eat too much in the morning but eat little bit so that you can eat more in the lunch. Breakfast is the most important meal for the day. The breakfast should be nutritious for the kids as well as the elders because the importance of breakfast is equal for all. This is commonly observed that those kids which goes to school after breakfast show better results. They do not feel themselves lazy and dull and this is why their perfomance at school is always better than the ones who do not have their breakfast. This is not only true with the kids but this is also quite true in case of elders. People having the habit of taking breakfast exibit healthy attitude towards eating and diet.

hi there, we are the same type of people. i only have a cup of coffee as breakfast. i don't think there is an important meal of the day. as long as you take in enough nutrients everyday it's good enough. to me, the body is just like a car engine. will you try to crank your engine right after a whole night's of rest? if not, why would you force your body to start the whole chain of reaction right after waking up? imagine the things our body do just so we can eat. firstly, the saliva glands got to start working really hard. then the oesophagus and stomach goes to work. followed by the intestines. four hours of hard work right after waking up! i don't think anyone will drive our car four hours straight right after starting the engine first thing in the morning! cheers ;p

hi there... i have to say lunch. i can skip breakfast and dinner but not lunch... even if i eat breakfast and not lunch.. i will feel whoozy.... happy mylotting.

Hi, acevivx. I am not that hungry in the mornings either myself. I get hungry around 11 or 12 pm. everyday. If I am hungry it is because I did not eat anything that was heavy the day before.

I know they say breakfast is the most important meal of the day. I can be hungry first thing but once i drink the coffee im not as hungry anymore. I still think that my first meal of the day is the most important reguardless if its 6 am or 12 noon.

I also skip breakfast most of the time and just eat lunch instead.Its not that i really mean it but i just don't feel hungry in the morning.I think the three meal are all important but its just depends how we take good care of ourselves.

I agree tat breakfast is the most important meal in a day..... let's think, our body is like a machine, if u dun start it probably it the beginning, how it can work probably, rite? so i think breakfast is the most important meal of the day.... =)
