Not sure if someone already said this but here's a little something I learned while in the military.. We hear this all the time but Do you know why breakfast is the most important meal of the day?!?!

it's because your metabolism slows down while you're sleeping.. and even when we wake up our bodies don't actually know we're awake until we bite into something to kick start our metabolism..

So if you go all day without eating or eating until noon.. your body is gonna be all confused and out of wack.

    Isn't this one of those myths that have been disproven time and time again???

    I don't know if breakfast is specifically good for you, but I do believe that a minimum 12 hour fast from the time you stop eating the evening before to the time you eat something the next day is good for you. So if you stop eating at midnight and you eat again at noon, that works. You can call that breakfast or whatever you want.

    Yes. I'm neutral on the whole eating breakfast thing. I don't know the exact science behind it or anything but after doing some research on intermittent fasting and it's benefits, I am not so sure that one has to eat breakfast everyday. Personally, I prefer waiting until I'm hungry which is usually closer to noon and it does not cause me to overeat later on in the day or anything.

    Eating breakfast or not is a preferance and has no impact on metabolism.

    Breakfast the most important meal of the day??? Who said that? Kellogg?

    Oh this will be Fun!!

    On a side note I eat a Big Breakfast but that is just because of personal preference and the fact I workout in the A.M. but this truly is a myth in and of itself..... Best of Luck....

    I was in the military for 12 years, it's lucky I never heard this nonsense though, since nearly half of the time was spent on night shift.

    Agreed. I usually wait until I'm hungry. I go through stages where I can eat breakfast and feel full all day, and others where I'd rather wait until lunch because breakfast makes me overeat. :P Just so happen to be comfortable with brekky now; three weeks ago, I didn't eat it.

    I love breakfast, but I'm indescriminate as to when I eat it . . . I don't really understand why people get all bent out of shape over it. My hubs and I have had all out battles on the topic as he insists that his issue is that he doesn't eat breakfast and then continues to eat late into the night, and I keep telling him that has nothing to do with it, the fact is he eats like ****. He starts in on the bro-tabolism and I call bs and he gets all bent out of shape. It's hard to cure people of long term brainwashing.

    THIS ^^

    I bet someone logged into her account and posted this as a joke...so when she logs in from work she would come online to 9 pages of "Way to promote broscience" and "lolercoster" and "Trollolol" and pictures of the Pirate decline being caused by global warming, and of antelopes enjoying a bowl of popcorn! :)
