Be ok for what exactly? Are you worried about being hungry and needing to eat a little something to stave off hunger? Or are you thinking you absolutely must eat first thing in the morning? If it's the latter, don't worry about it.
Something to kick start the metabolism. I read somewhere something about having to kick start the metabolism when trying to lose weight. Monday through Friday I'm good. It's just Saturdays.

That is not true. Your metabolism doesn't need a kick start. Eat when you want, at a deficit, and you'll lose weight.0 -

I said when. And you can eat what you want, even if it's french fries-if it fits into your deficit and you have hit your macros for the day (if that's important to you).0 -

Well. Knowing my schedule I guess I could peel it the night before and just stick it in the fridge.0 -
My thoughts were, you said you don't have time...are you hungry? Make a nice sandwich the night before & pack one to eat while the Hubs drives to your location. If you are trying to incorporate more fruit into your daily nutrition, grapes, bananas, blueberries, rasb/strawberries are easy & not messy. Wrap peaches/pears/plums in a paper towel & eat away, keeping the messy part soaked up in the paper towel.0

Peeling an orange takes like, 20 seconds? We're not talking about a pineapple or a pomegranate here :PValenciaChristine0103 wrote: »ValenciaChristine0103 wrote: »

I'm partial to breakfast myself, but the whole must eat breakfast to kick-start the metabolism thing is not really grounded in any kind of science and is just basically one of those persistent myths that never seem to really go away.
Personally, I'd have issues doing a service or two on an empty stomach...but I wouldn't worry about the kick-starting of your metabolism.0 -
Greek yogurt. Keeps me full for a couple of hours.0

I'm sorry but you're just making excuses. We all have busy schedules. You could always wake up 30 seconds earlier and peel the orange. I don't think 30 seconds of sleep will be missed.
But what do I know. I'm just a guy that works 60 hours a week, 7 days a week, and gets up most days between 5 and 6 am to prepare my food for the day.
Just excuses.
I agree that peeling an orange isn't a big deal, but who said she needs to eat an orange??? No need to attack the poster. Plus, she's correct, oranges may not be the best choice for someone who wants something quick to eat on the go. So if she does want a piece of fruit, why not choose one of the many other choices that are easier? Besides, she doesn't need to eat anything at all if she's not hungry.

Eat whatever fruit you like that fits your calorie goal. You can cut it up or peel it the night before and just put it in a container. Berries, apples, banana, orange, pineapple, mango, pear for example.
Other foods are just as easy and portable though. Yogurt, cheese, a sandwich, granola bar, crackers, carrots, tomato, peppers, hard boiled eggs, nuts, or cooked chicken chunks.0 -
I wake up every morning go to the gym, come home, get my daughter off to school. Get ready and then drive to work, where I work for an hour or so, before I finally eat something. Why wouldn't it be okay?0

I like to eat apples in the morning. The crunch wakes me up and the nutrition gives me energy.

When I don't have time for breakie I blend together a scoop of chocolate protein powder, a banana, kale and almond coconut milk. You can take it with you and sip as you go
Or you could eat a couple of boiled eggs with a whole lot less trouble 0 -
