You don't need to eat breakfast in order to lose weight. If you aren't hungry then skip it.0

Breakfast really isn't necessary for weight loss. If you feel better eating it or you need the enery in the mornings, then it might help. But it's not required and many people do just fine without it.
That said, I tend to have Greek yogurt and coffee in the mornings.0 -
All I ever seem to hear/read is skipping breakfast will slow down weight loss etc etc..0

Who said you need to eat breakfast to lose weight? You dont need to eat breakfast to lose weight. You need to be in a calorie deficit to lose weight no matter when you eat those calories.0

That's wrong. Weight loss, and how fast you lose, is based on the amount of your daily calorie deficit. It doesn't matter when you consume the calories so let's just go ahead and nip the, "don't eat before you go to bed" myth in the bud while we are at it.

THANK YOU!!!! Least I dont have to worry about making sure I have breakfast now... That has helped LOADS, Thanks guys ...0 -
A lot of people who lose weight and keep it off eat a good breakfast, but some people who lose weight and keep it off don't eat breakfast. It's not a requirement. I added breakfast cereals to my diet because I need the iron and that's what I have most days...and maybe fruit.
You can eat anything you want. They say a high-fiber breakfast helps with weight loss, but they don't say it's mandatory.0 -

I eat Greek yogurt or eggs. I'm not one for a lot of breakfast either but I find that those two foods help to reduce my desire to indulge myself at lunch!0

I suspect many people say that it helps to eat breakfast to loose weight because by not skipping meals you hopefully stave off becoming uncontrollably hungry.
But at the end of the day all that counts is the calorie deficit, whenever you ate your food.
Some days I don't eat breakfast because I'm not hungry. No biggie.0 -
I am really grateful for all your advice guys... It has definately put my mind at ease about missing breakfast if I am not hungry. I am more a coffee for breakfast kind of gal haha0

I hate those people. The only way they can get us to join their breakfast cult is to threaten us with failure.0 -
I have started skipping breakfast - I realized I was just eating it out of habit, not really hunger (though my stomach would growl on cue at 8am. Now I feel better waiting until 11:30 for my first meal. I drink coffee though and a couple of glasses of water.0

Think I am just going to stick with what I know but control the rest of my diet... Coffee and water carry me through to lunch, so... If it aint broke, an all that! Thank you guys!!0

I find when I eat breakfast I end up starving by 9:30 ( today for sure) but for some reason although I never ate breakfast before I feel obligated to eat it now that I log. I guess I believed those that said I must. Think I may go back to the old way see what happens at this point I could not feel hungrier.0
