@Nonametoday I understand. The tone for the day would be a tinkle.

At the least, a little OJ or cranberry juice.
I drink 32oz of water upon waking up.
That sets the tone for the day.

@sidsmom If I drank that much water early morning, my bladder would fall out.

Health begins with hydration.

After 7-8hrs...the body is hungry for water.

I never eat breakfast. Never have. Always in too big of a rush to get out of the house to work. Deep down, I've never understood how people could sit down in the morning and eat. It would slow you down so much. also, a little bit of hunger in the day gives me an edge. I seriously believe I think and work better with a stomach that's not full. I realize that others may be different.

I don't eat breakfast either. Can't imagine eating and then going to work. I have notice that if I do eat breakfast I kind of feel tired, and I find that I eat more during the day if I eat first thing in the morning. I have eaten breakfast for dinner.

Even as a kid I was never a breakfast eater and I'm still not. I drink black coffee whenever I roll out of bed and usually don't eat anything until supper time. I do have some type of smoothie after I exercise though, but that's because I need to get flax seeds into my diet. I wish I could choke down some scrambled eggs in the morning, but I can't.

Must eat breakfast! Eat a large breakfast. I also heard that lunch should be light, and dinner also. Don't eat after a certain time in the evening.

Now, they're saying --- don't eat breakfast! Why the sudden change???

What do you all feel about this?

All the years I worked, I never ate a proper breakfast except perhaps when I was off. I would get to work, and perhaps at around 9:30 or so, I would have 1-2 cups of decaf coffee and a protein bar -- that was my breakfast!

Now, that I am retired, I do eat breakfast -- usually within 1/2 hour of getting up. Cereal, bananna, or something of this nature.

Also --- if you do eat breakfast -- what do you feel is a healthy breakfast? I was told by several people that cereal is not that good for you. But I am not much for eggs, and have somewhat high cholesterol.

If you're not supposed to eat breakfast, then do you eat a large lunch???

It's so confusing! Eat breakfast -- don't eat breakfast! This is good, this is bad!

What do you believe???

@AngelPuppy1

Who is "they" and where did you read this?

I can't eat first thing in the morning, and I don't think I should be forcing down food when I'm not the least bit hungry. Does that make any sense? I happen to love the Premier Protein shakes - 30gr of protein for 160 calories - and will drink one of those in the morning if I feel I need nutrition before lunch. Their newest flavor, Cafe Latte, has a smidge of caffeine in them!

@I am still oxox

I am sorry but I can't give you particular names. I have been seeing various things on t.v. lately. Some were saying --- this is old thing about eating breakfast is not true. And especially not true about breakfast being the most important meal and the biggest meal of the day.
