I have never start my day without breakfast. Well, almost I think. Breakfast is so important for me. Even with breakfast, I am starting to feel hungry again 2-3 hours after eat it. So I can't imagine what will I be if I skip my breakfast.
Any breakfast is better than no breakfast, but try not to have doughnuts or pastries all the time. They're high in calories, sugar, and fat. And if you have a doughnut for breakfast, you won't feel full for long.
Just like with other meals, try to eat a variety of foods, including:
* grains (breads and cereals)
* protein (meats, beans, and nuts)
* fruits and vegetables
* milk, cheese, and yogurt
Eating breakfast reduces your hunger later in the day, making it easier to avoid overeating. When you skip breakfast, you may feel ravenous later and be tempted to reach for a quick fix, such as candy from the vending machine. In addition, prolonged fasting — which occurs when you skip breakfast — can increase your body's insulin response, which in turn increases fat storage and weight gain. In fact, skipping breakfast actually increases your risk of obesity.
