HELP ME!

Okay you sound just like my daughter , she would rather sleep then eat but I try to make her atleast have something. I have been buying the bagel thins & berry cream cheese (160cals), the Kellog's yogurt bars are (120 cals), and the Quaker breakfast cookies. I know they don't sound like a meal but it is better then not eating and then overeating later. Hope this helps!

When I was in high school I would drink the carnation instant breakfast, fast and easy! Does your school have a microwave available to you?

If you're going to try to eat breakfast, maybe you could try a protein shake? I blend 1 cup ice, about 8oz water, 1 cup frozen strawberries and a french vanilla protein shake powder. It's less than 250 calories and is pretty thick and like eating dessert for breakfast. But, it keeps me going most of the morning. I'll have a mid morning snack around 9-9:30am (I eat my breakfast shake at 5:30am) --- usually some kind of granola bar or fruit. If I don't have something in the morning, I tend to overeat later in the day.

A cereal bar and a piece of fruit would be a good start to the day, your body works in a way that if you don't eat breakfast, then by the time you do eat your starving and then over eat to compensate, by eating small regular amounts your body keeps ticking over nicely and the more regular your eating is then the more regular your weight will be..... hope that makes sense, good luck

I used to NEVER eat breakfast. I'd wake up anytime between 6am and 11am (depending on work schedule) and I would usually wait until maybe 12pm-2pm to have something. However, I noticed that I get hungrier when I do that... which could be why I've had so much problems with weight loss (or lack thereof) in the past.

My remedy is this: Soon as I wake up, drink some water. Then I eat within one hour of waking. I force myself to eat 1 apple, 1 hardboiled egg, and maybe 1/2 ounce of nuts. Sometimes, if I wake up starving (lately that's been the case, I'll stop at dinner time of 6pm), I'll have an apple, 2-3 hard boiled eggs, and a full ounce of nuts.

Since I've been eating breakfast, with that exact mix of protein, complex carbs and mono fats, I've been feeling more satisfied throughout the day and less likely to binge at night, which is AMAZING for me. Granted, I still have my days where all I want is an entire pint of the sweetest ice cream there is, but lately, with my increase in protein and decrease in carbs (between 100-150g/day), I can do with just one or two tablespoons of sweets and be perfectly fine. Which is a HUGE feat in itself for me!!!

Having said that - I would make sure to have some mixed nuts on you at all times. Keep a fruit or two in your locker (make sure it's eaten the same day - last thing you want is a bunch of fruit flies floating around your locker lol. Hard boiled eggs are always a great choice, maybe some canned tuna sammiches w/ carrots, chicken and salad, beans and rice.

I would make it a goal to have breakfast in the morning with a good mix of carbs, protein and healthy fats. You might feel the difference the way I did.

Hope this helps.

You don't have to eat breakfast, but the general idea with eating breakfast in medical studies is that it helps you not feel hungry until your next meal. Being ultra hungry can lead to binge eating / over eating. I'd probably make something the night before so you can heat it up and eat it in the morning if you want to retain breakfast. Otherwise, you can go without it.

It really takes a lot of dedication to track your meals and to stay on target, I would try to at least log everything you eat so you can see what you're eating, that helps a lot with dieting.

Best of luck!
