    I do leangains intermittent fasting. I only eat between 12pm-8pm, I do this 5-7 days/week. Good thing my body doesn't know about this "breakfast is the most important meal, or your metabolism will slow down nonsense"

    This is me as well-break my fast at 11am and wrap up my eating window by 7pm. Works well for me.

    I'm a night person, I am just not hungry in the morning. Once I tried to force myself to eat in the mornings... I just craved and ate junk food all day long, it messed me up. I'd feel awful all day. Now I eat when I get hungry, it just makes sense. I don't crave bad foods anymore, I have more energy throughout the day, and I eat mostly when I get home, where it's easier to make healthy meals.

    There is no reason for breakfast to be the most important meal of the day, in fact in most countries, breakfast almost doesn't exist, it's a very north american concept, probably driven by the cereal and pop tart industry (cue the conspiracy theories lol).

    NEVER EVER skip breakfast. Most important meal of the day. Even if you grab a yogurt with some fresh fruit.

    Really? cause skipping breakfast has not hurt me in any way. Oh wait....I'm a special snowflake :laugh:

    The most important meal of the day...........does not exist. The most important thing to remember here is that everyone responds differently to different things. Most important to you, less important to me.
