    I usually just have coffee for breakfast, because I prefer to eat a lot from dinner til bedtime. There's no reason to force yourself to eat breakfast if you aren't hungry.

    LOLcat (and therefore the Internet at large)-speak for "help"...or were you being facetious?

    Always eat breakfast. Never skip any meals in your day. What you had for breakfast is light & a good idea. Try Carnation Instant Breakfast or a protein shake. You can try juicing your fruits and veggies. It is very important that you eat breakfast because it gets your metabolism and blood sugar off to a great start.
    Liquid ideas for breakfast are good for those who don't like heavy meals to start off the day with. There are soooo many smoothie and juicing blends on Pinterest or anywhere on Google.

    I don't like breakfast either. I would prefer to just eat dinner and be done but find something small and light to kick-start your day. Even GoGurt... But it's important you put something in your belly :)

    No. Your metabolism is always going, you don't need to "start" it in the am. If you are not hungry, there is no need to eat breakfast (barring medical conditions like diabetes).

    I know alot of people on here are saying that breakfast isn't necessary, but any health PROFESSIONAL I have ever talked to or heard talk says it is. It gets your metabolism going in the a.m. it also helped me lose 26 lbs. That being said, my favorites are:
    Oatmeal, plain with toppings or flavored (I just use instant)
    Eggs and toast with fruit
    Toast with PB and fruit
    Whole wheat or protein waffle with PB and fruit
    Protein Shake


    Hope this helps!

    You don't need to get your metabolism started in the am. For every professional that says it is needed there is another that says it's not. It is a misconception that has been repeated for years with no scientific backing.
