most people that i knew does'nt eat anything for breakfast. a cup of coffee is usually enough for them to start the day. . . it's really hard to eat breakfast especially when i'm getting late for my work but i still see to it that i'll grab a sandwich for my breakfast.. i'm already thin and i can't afford to lose even a single ounce of my weight.

I don't eat breakfast sometimes too, but my mom is not okay with it. She must prepare some breakfast for me in the morning, so I can keep my energy for work. I don't used to eat breakfast, but now, I am okay to have them. Not bad at all. So, if you can, try not to skip your breakfast.

That is my work schedule is hindering me of breakfasts. I seldom eat breakfast from now that I had to be so early to be at work.

I skip eating breakfast in the morning most of the time as I take too much time to get ready for school. I have food at 12:00 PM and my lunch at 4:00 PM.. That's how it's been for years and I have got used to it!

Yes sometimes i skip breakfast when i am getting late for work.I just pick a packet of biscuits to eat wid tea at work.and lately i have had gastric problems and eat oatmeal daily as its soft and supposedly good for the stomach, but now im fed-up of oatmeals and cant wait for my medication to get over and switch to normal breakfast.Learning the hard way to have meals on time.

Hi,
I will ensure that I take breakfast every morning as it provides me the energy I need to be in tip-top condition. Its lucky that you are thin and cannot afford to lose weight. Now I am seeking to lose weight as I am putting on weight these days. However, I think taking three meals a day regularly is still needed even if I am on diet.

I used to skip breakfast when I was younger. I eat breakfast everyday now. I wake up at least one hour before leaving my house to make sure I can have breakfast and cup of coffee....

I have just the same problem. I'm underweight and I need to get more weight but I'm pretty bad at waking up So when I'm late, I don't have time to eat. I also sleep pretty long on weekends so it's already time for lunch when I wake up so I don't usually get any breakfast on weekends

Hello cainam , I have to eat breakfast every day except for when I am traveling long distance. My daily breakfast is the same thing I have every day. I start out with 16 ounces of 1% milk,2 cups of coffee,1 banana,and a 1/2 cup of fiber one cereal. It keeps me filled up until 2:00 PM.

i have also have the same problem and most people have this problem that they cant eat early in the morning(breakfast). I can suggest one solution as i do for my self. I am not exactly sure whether it can help you or not but it help me upto some extent. try to get up a bit earlier , i mean atleast an hour before the breakfast and then after washing your hands and face drink one or two glass of water. just try this out and may be it help you.
One another thing is that make a habbit to eat something during the breakfast and slowly and steadily you will be able to handle this.

most people do skip breakfast especially before school or work. I know i do most of the time but i find time to refuel like during break times.

I don't know you but still looks like I am from one of those. I can't wait till my breakfast to come or I get late to my college. Only a few times in a week I eat my breakfast. Two or three days in a week I suppose.Anyways good topic there you have posted.

I usually try to eat something for breakfast even if it's only a yogurt. But there are alot of days that i come to work and drink my coffee and won't get anything to eat until at least 10 or 11 in the morning. Sometimes i'm hungry as soon as i wake up but everyone's different so i guess it all depends on how your metabolism is.

i don't really skip breakfast because its not healthy to do so, though i might have a tight appointment to catch but i still make sure i have a bite or two of my breakfast to have some energy to handle the early morning stress, though i skip my lunch several times but i don't joke with my breakfast and dinner

Good for you - trying to keep nice and healthy.
I only eat breakfast if I'm awake in time to make breakfast. I could afford to cut a few dozen meals - I've got that many meals packed onto me already.
