You must eat breakfast if you want to lose weight

What should you try and keep your breakfast Calorie intake at.

No single approach, formula, or plan for weight loss can work perfectly for every person. We all need to do what works for us, not for others.

I believe that there is nothing wrong with sharing of what works. I posted what worked for me. Eating breakfast the way I described helped me lose weight without exercise and without feeling hungry.

The method that I share has helped me lose weight fast. This method grew out of my experience, my struggle with my weight and my frustration with the previous lack of success.

My post was not about just “eating breakfast” only. It was supposed to be about specific food that I eat for breakfast that made me successful. And of course there in no “a lot of protein” in the way I eat. I stated:”1 slice of 99% fat free turkey breast”.

I could have phrased the post title a bit different. I probably would be better understood if I used “for me it is very important to eat breakfast” instead of “must eat breakfast”.

It might be BS or inflammatory nonsense to some, who explicitly stated so here. But for others, especially for those who tried almost everything and nothing seems to have worked, it may be an option worth trying.

And yes. 91 pounds gone, in what appears to have been a relatively “easy” way, with no hunger and no exercise.

You must eat breakfast if you want to lose weight, and make sure it includes lean protein. Eating lean protein at breakfast is one of the most important things you can do to fell less hungry.

Even if you don’t feel hungry in the morning, eat breakfast anyway. It may be a challenge, but this is something you can do. Breakfast will help you prevent hunger later on. It will reduce your appetite and cravings and help you stick with your eating plan all day long.

I start my day off with good breakfast. For me it means non-starchy vegetable, fresh low-sugar fruit, lean protein, whole grain bread, and healthy fats (I take Omega 3 supplement).

This is my average day, but I generally eat the same things from day to day:

blueberries, blackberries, or apple,
1 slice of dry, 100% whole-grain toasted bread with
1 slice of 99% fat free turkey breast,
1 fresh tomato hot tea (no milk, no sugar).

As you can see it is not a typical "breakfast foods". The protein consumption, when eaten as part of the daily first meal reduces my appetite throughout the day. I also believe that it jump-starts my metabolism and sets my body in the optimal fat-burning state.

Eating like this was initially a little challenging, but I got used to it. It has become a part of my eating strategy that caused me to lose 91 pounds without feeling hungry.

So, respectfully, you are not aware that protein also significantly spike insulin?

depends on the quantities.
Yes if you slam large amounts of whey. Or eat a dozen eggs.

But if you're eating a small meal in the mornings like a couple of eggs with bacon, you aren't gonna see a huge rise in insulin.....

Not nessesarily true. See the attached links.

Insulin spike from protein in normal doses is pretty comparable to insulin spike from carbs.

Meal timing is crucial to health. You may lose weight when not eating breakfast, but your brain suffers and so do your organs. Look at the word: "Break - fast". In other words, you have not provided nourishment to your body for an average of 8-10 hours. To go even longer without food, especially once you are out of bed and active, is punishing to your body. The body will go into starvation mode and begin to break down muscle rather than fat, so it's more harmful than eating just about anything.

This post couldn't be further from the truth.
Skipping breakfast actually leads to optimal hormone levels. About 2 hours after waking, GH levels will peak if you haven't eaten.

Eating breakfast spikes your insulin and puts your body in fat storing mode for the day..........
