I eat eggs almost every morning. I start my day with protein and eating breakfast kick-starts your metabolism. I have lost 30 pounds over the last 4 months and I know that this is part of the reason. Don't skip meals or healthy snacks - keep your metabolism and blood sugar even all day.

I take medication in the morning. It is best to do it with food in the stomach. I am a Type one diabetic. I try to vary my breakfast from oatmeal to toaster waffles to rye bread toast.

I always have breakfast about an hour after rising. I couldn't think of starting my routine without breakfast.

I have no appetite when I wake up. I have tried to eat and feel bloated. I do take my vitamins and drink my juice in the morning though.

Like Barb and Jen, I wait until I'm hungry, usually about 2 hours.

I'm not hungry until 10am or so. I'll eat something small then.

Bacon or sausage with fried eggs and coffee with heavy cream every morning. Dietary cholesterol and saturated fat being bad for health is a myth.

If I miss breakfast my whole day is down hill as far as eating right.

I love breakfast even though I am on a diet.

As I cannot drive my vehicle unless there is sufficient gas to propel it, I cannot successfully launch my day without breakfast. I need a good foundation on which to function as peak efficiency. I prefer the protein in eggs to other options

My wife loves the breakfasts I make

I have heard that breakfast is food for the brain--and I need all the help I can get--so I never skip it!True Story LOL

In the past never ate breakfast, now I only miss breakfast 1 or 2 a week at the most. Conclusion: Do much better with breakfast than without. Usually if is high protein I do much better through until lunch.

I was born and raised on a farm/ranch. Never skipped breakfast...not then and not now. I enjoy healthy organic eggs and no nitrate bacon on different days of the week. I eat well and haven't been a patient in a hospital, I'm on no medications, I spend quite a bit of money on organic veggies, meat, milk/goat milk. I cook from scratch. Never eat box meals. I use butter and lard. Food is the most important item that I purchase.

Growing up it would have been unthinkable to skip breakfast and wouldn't have been permitted. I've always eaten a big breakfast. I would feel starved without it.

I eat breakfast but not till I get to work and at my desk
Barb - 07/19/2012
I'm just not hungary. Takes about two hours before I'm ready for food.
Carmen - 07/19/2012
Eating breakfast makes me more hungry the rest of the day so I skip it.
Ritt - 07/19/2012
I mostly like whole eggs for breakfast and I worry about the cholesterol so I limit myself to a couple of times a week.
Jen - 07/19/2012
I wait until I'm hungry. I'm usually at my desk at work
