I hate breakfast

If you don't want to eat it, don't. I don't.

Yesterday's news

@MyReflections I was as sedentary as you and now I run 5K's regularly. I was T2 diabetic but the symptoms are in remission from significant weight loss.

The trick to regaining mobility is persistence and baby steps. Exercise enough to get you puffing every day and as it gets easier, set new goals.

I am fairly confident you are fine starting your day with a salad or a Lean Cuisine. (I am assuming your lean cousins are live and inedible).

You can edit your settings to give meals different names.

The cereal that was literally invented to stop kids from the evils of self-pleasure? Lol

I hate breakfast too, I've pretty much stopped trying lol.

We wouldn't want anybody going blind or insane

"In 1894, Dr. John Harvey Kellogg, the superintendent of The Battle Creek Sanitarium in Michigan and an Adventist, used these recipes as part of a strict vegetarian regimen for his patients, which also included no alcohol, tobacco, or caffeine. The diet he imposed consisted entirely of bland foods. A follower of Sylvester Graham, the inventor of graham crackers and graham bread, Kellogg believed that spicy or sweet foods would increase passions.[2]

This idea for corn flakes began by accident when Kellogg and his younger brother, Will Keith Kellogg, left some cooked wheat to sit while they attended to some pressing matters at the sanitarium."

Kellogg was a total nutjob. There's a hilarious book and then movie based on his life, The Road to Wellville. Book is much better than the movie, although the movie has Anthony Hopkins playing Kellogg.

I know what you are going to say, "It's the most important meal of the day," but I just don't like it. I do eat breakfast at the weekend, but then it's more like a brunch. A mix between lunch and a late breakfast.

I have never eaten breakfast, not as a child and not as an adult. I drink something, either tea or water and I am ready for the day. I am just not hungry before lunchtime.

I feel like I am wasting calories because I make myself eat breakfast now. It makes me feel tired and bloated. I don't 'care for it.

Am I the only one who doesn't like to eat breakfast?
Do I really have to include breakfast in my meal plan?

I don't care for cereals, I am not crazy for eggs and I eat fruits as snacks during the day.

Do you exercise? If so do you do it in the morning or evening? Just wondering because lately I've been hating to eat breakfast as well, seems to make me tired but I prefer to exercise in the morning and not sure if it's a good idea to work out on empty stomach.

What time do you eat lunch usually?

Not the OP but I work out in the morning without eating, it's no problem as long as I eat supper the day before. I do eat breakfast, but it's small and not until hours after working out (I work out at 5:30 AM and eat breakfast around 9:30 AM at work)

Thanks for sharing! How many calories do you eat for breakfast.. and what are you usually eating?

I also tend to work out in the morning on an empty stomach. In fact if I go running with food in my stomach it actually makes me nauseated. I'm a little different from @robininfl in that I don't eat after working out until lunch generally. I find if I work out really hard, I might have a GU or something similar (I'm a runner so it tends to be something like those gels that you can take running with you and are usually ~100 Cal).

My advice would be to just go with how your stomach feels. If you feel tired/lightheaded/nauseated after working out then maybe try eating something small and go from there to figure out how much you should eat and when.

Sounds interesting - I'm going to add that book to my list

I love that book. Should watch the movie, even if its not as good.

I also love breakfast, but went for years not eating it (didn't used to love it--started loving it when I weirdly became a morning person) with no negative effect on my weight, hunger, or health.
