So it's not breakfast per se but breakfast TIME that is the question?
I fast 18 hours from 8:30 pm to about 12:30 1:00 pm the next day ...
when i used to eat breakfast i was eating like four eggs, four egg whites etc...and by 10:30 I was STARVING...now when I skip breakfast I am really not the hungry at all ...0 -
So why have we been lectured to about "the most important meal of the day" for all these years? "There are a lot of forces in our society pushing against" skipping breakfast, says Mark Mattson, PhD, chief of the Laboratory of Neurosciences at the National Institute on Aging. "Those forces are driven by money. They include the food industry obviously, and in some respects the pharmaceutical industry.” Breakfast cereals alone are an $11 billion a year industry, and that's before you get into eggs and bacon, bagels and lox, pancakes and syrup.

I don't agree. This companies are not forcing you to buy. Choice is yours. I believe Home made healthy breakfast is always good and must for good health.0

big name brands --> media --> us --> money --> governement put that in a circle however you want and figure out how do they know or even tell us whats really "good" for us .. same goes for every pill or anti depressant we "have to take" to be happy.. your depressed, your too big too small your not good enough you dont look good enough so buy this or take that to be healhy and happy and good looking.. when do you see a commercial telling you your fine and theres nothing Wrong with you? point being, listen to yourself not what the government/media tells you is "right" everything they drill into our heads is for $$ - not our well being0

I tried it for a month or so. Led me to binge more. So i've settled on about 150 calories at breakfast,which mentally makes adhering easier for me. To each his own. Looks like it works for you.0

DUDE! Vodka and OJ! Perfect breakfast. Why you gotta hate on the breakfast?na i just need to cut back on my vodka consumption ...
Seriousness: "Breakfast" may or may not be the most important meal of the day, it doesn't really matter. What matters is that you eat healthfully whenever you choose to eat.
Except for when you don't, which should be about 80% less often than when you do.0 -
Ok folks here are the stats...
forty four percent of us eat breakfast, yet 2/3's of americans are obese. Hmmm yet we keep hearing that breakfast is the "most important meal of the day". I guess if you want to be obese then it is. Also, the whole "I need to eat breakfast to stoke the metabolic fire theory' has been totally debunked; as meal timing has nothing to do with metabolism. So I say eat when you are hungry and the let the chips fall as they may. I personally have been skipping breakfast for about five months now, and have lost three percent body fat. Oh, and you wont go into starvation mode if you don't eat breakfast so don't even come with that...cheers!0 -

Please quote some peer-reviewed, reputable studies if you want to say it's been totally de-bunked. I agree science is sketchy on the metabolic aspect but you can find many studies on the National Institutes of Health web site supporting the cause for eating breakfast. I don't care if you eat breakfast or not, but so far no one on this site has shown me a peer-reviewed meta-analysis of literature de-bunking the theory. It might exist; I'm still just waiting for someone to show it to me. It's just the point that people keep saying it's B.S. without showing me any citations, particularly a peer-reviewed meta-analysis in a reputable scientific journal (which is a study of studies, essentially).0 -
Yeah, well, we know about you. You should really go for a Bloody Caesar, be crazy among your friends and attract nearby Canadians. Instead of tomato juice, use clamato juice. It is quite delicious!I prefer bloody marry's to vodka OJ ....but that is just me...0 -
example of totally unacceptable citation. this would not pass muster at any reputable college as a source for an academic paper.0 -
Whoa!!!!!!!!!!!
I consider breakfast top be the most important meal of the day! It's what one eats for breakfast that will pave the way either to the obese or slim life. Fast and I'll eat anything that comes my way and that's a promise! Eat a well balanced breakfast and I'll be happy throughout the day with healthy and well portioned meals with minimal sancking in between. Now everyone has their own preferences as to what they like for breakfast. Mine is rolled oats with no fat plain yoghurt, chia and linseed mix with blueberries and a dash of honey or maple syrup. Winter it's good ole porridge.
I'll stick to what works best for me and all the best with your journey...

i never eat breakfast, i normally just have coffee for breakfast.. and then wait to eat until lunch. whenever i do eat breakfast like if someone cooks so i feel bad and have to eat it - i always gain weight when i weigh myself the next day.. plus im not even hungry until like 12:00 anyway.. agree with you 100%!
this is exactly what I am talking about ...real life example of the ills of breakfast!
Yay! Woo hoo. More anecdotal evidence. Do you have a source for anything that you could possibly use even in a freshman-level public speaking course on this topic? Nope. You quote percentages with no back up. 99.8% of what you say is B.S. I can't find the source, but I'm sure of it. I read it somewhere.0 -
