Eating Breakfast Doesn’t Promote Weight Loss

Video taken from the channel: Healthcare Triage


A new study — the findingsof which appear in the BMJ— saw no evidence to support the idea that eating breakfast is a good strategy for weight loss, or that skipping breakfast. At the end of the day, total calorie intake is what matters most for weight loss. If skipping breakfast helps you remain within your calorie limits, then feel free to use intermittent fasting. But, it’s not magic. Intermittent fasting is merely a tool to improve dietary adherence.

For many people, breakfast may be beneficial in the following ways: Reduced hunger. Eating breakfast may reduce your hunger later in the day, which may make it easier to avoid overeating. Healthy choices. Eating breakfast may get you on track to.

In short, this study suggests that advising people to either skip or eat breakfast has no effects on weight loss. Although it doesn’t rule out that breakfast habits may have metabolic consequences, it strongly suggests that breakfast recommendations do not have a significant impact when people are trying to lose weight. Written by Aline Pilani. The biggest difference the study authors noted was that participants who ate a morning meal burned more calories doing light activities throughout the day; however, the amount of calories. In the past, some studies suggested that eating breakfast might help promote weight loss, while skipping a morning meal might lead to weight gain.

But according to a new review of research. Does breakfast help you to lose weight, or does it have the opposite effect? Here at Medical News Today, we have been reporting on conflicting studies in. Make sure you have a satisfying and balanced breakfast that provides sufficient protein (starting at 20 g), quality When practical, keep dinner light and lean (ideas include grilled chicken or fish and a variety of veggies) and limit.

Breakfast is perceived as healthy, even more important than other meals. Even today’s official nutrition guidelines recommend that we eat breakfast. It is claimed that breakfast helps us lose.

Experts say that people who eat breakfast are less likely to overeat the rest of the day, but recent studies have found no difference in weight between those.

significant effect on weight loss.6 What mattered weren’t breakfast habits but overall eating habits and diet compliance, which merely confirms what metabolic researchers have been saying for decades.

The experience of helping thousands of people lose weight has shown me that a breakfast high in proteins (eggs with ham and a half-slice of bread) gets a person to increase their metabolism and gives him a chance at losing weight.

Your breakfast has failed you if you’re hungry an hour later (though there’s nothing wrong with a healthy, preferably protein-filled midmorning snack to tide you over to lunch), so this is not the place to cut calorie corners.

  • Good morning Autumn. ☀️ I started my weightloss journey with IF. It was a great way to start losing weight without feeling like I was dieting. I no longer do it on a regular basis but will do it on my off the gym days if I can. Almost a year later I’m just ten pounds from my goal. Thanks for sharing!!

  • Good info, thank you! If someone wants to do intermittent fasting, they could just skip food/calories later in the day, rather than the morning/breakfast (as I think most do with IF).

  • I will say that if you do intermittent fasting, which may include skipping breakfast if it’s not the window in which you eat, works without a doubt for weight loss.

  • That’s either a reflection of Autumn in the background, or there’s a really snarky ghost living there who mimics and mocks Autumn’s every move.

  • I wonder if it’s not related to “breakfast food” more so than the time of the eating. People who eat breakfast are probably more like to eat cereal / fruit / oats / etc, than people who skip breakfast. A proper study would be having people follow exactly the same meal plan, just changing the timing of the meals.

  • All I know is I started eating just a simple breakfast sandwich almost every day and I’ve lost 5 lbs. Now this is over a 4 month period, but that is the only dietary change I have made, so I’ll take what I can get.

  • I eat breakfast every morning for long time ago. Then I gain weight, feeling body to be heavy my health had many problems. But one day I didn’t remember my body told me to stop eating breakfast. so I followed my body and now I loss weight slowly slowly loss the fat of my belly and I am feeling energy, healthy also. Thank!

  • my med school had a dietician come in to discuss diet counseling for patients with diabetes and they suggested that the best diet plan for this population was a large breakfast medium sized lunch and a small dinner. Any idea if this claim has any support

  • What I heard from the conclusion of this video is that if you compare the same diet for people that eat breakfast vs. those that don’t then more weight is lost by those that eat breakfast, But ‘the same diet’ to me means the same calories per day regardless of when you eat them. When I eat breakfast I eat more calories over the course of the day then I do if I skip breakfast because the additional calories in the morning don’t make me feel less hungry at lunch or dinner, and I can assure you there is no extra activity as I work at home and I go right from the bed to the desk whether I just have a morning coffee or whether I eat breakfast. It’s still not clear to me from the conclusions in the video that eating breakfast but NOT reducing calories the rest of the day will not cause you to gain weight (e.g., eat breakfast and consume 1600 calories for the day vs. skip breakfast and consume 1300 calories for the day).

  • No it doesn’t, it helps you gain weight. The human body isn’t designed to eat at breakfast. End of discussion.

    If you have half a brain cell and are capable of research, do it.

  • I wish I could have that oatmeal with cream & brown sugar is YUM, my old favourite.

    Great recipes though & so glad I’m “allowed” to still have bread, thanks:)

  • I like that, and enjoy Oatmeal, or a smoothie, but,,,,, what if our clocks are different? I seem to eat at the same time just about every morning, even if i wake up at 3 or 6 am I alway’s eat at around 9- 9:30 every morning!

  • Glass of water first, bowl of Grape Nuts and Honey Nut Cheerios mixed together and I have the perfect recipe to initiate my morning poop.

  • As an Austrian I never understand why north americans love their bacon so much.
    It’s so greasy and untastety, that here in Austria we couldn’t even consider this bacon.
    Try Tyrolean smoked baken. Best thing ever. And I’m not just saying this, because I am from there. I swear:P

  • I tried both and mixed up a ton of different habits for my own curiosity.
    When I quit eating breakfast over a month. I became less productive but I did lose weight. My blood pressure dropped substantially too (from 130/100 on average to 110/90 on average (rounded)).
    Adding caffeine (400mg at 9 AM) but it affected me being able to fall asleep and then remain asleep.
    What I concluded was: anything you do will likely have both positive and negative outcomes.
    Personally: I prefer to eat breakfast. Even just a banana or two in the morning and add a tiny bit of caffeine (50mg) along with a liter of water before noon.

  • I generally eat one meal a day. It’s never in the morning though. However, during the day I might snack on fruit, seeds, and/or nuts.

  • Thanks for this! It can be confusing.
    My husband and I both started IF and we are LOVING IT. I use your coffee recipes and I’m going to try the pumpkin spice one right now!

    Where is your pretty kitchen background?? I’m really distracted by the clutter in the back ��

  • Intermittent Fasting doesn’t say skip breakfast people; IF says eat within a window of time. Most people choose to eat later because of lifestyle.

    We don’t move more because we skip breakfast? What a Joke! Come on! Does this guy really look like he moves more than the average guy? Wake up!

    Eat healthier is the key GBOMBS. A big salad! And, adding some easy and light strength training (yes it’s movement but more than vacuuming) for the weak. Slowly build up some resistance training AthleanX with some easy resistance bands.

    You will look healthier and be healthier. Next video, “Is using resistance bands good for you?”

  • I’ve had amazing results not eating breakfast. I do drink warm honey lemon water with my meds because I have to have something but wow, what great results! Me and my girlfriend eat from 3 to 9 in the afternoon and we are both dropping weight!

  • Website called NextLevelDiet is the best for your body transformation. I lost 20kg by following their diet plan (I also had cheat meals) and training plan.

  • I’m kind of on the fence about this as much as I want to adhere to the science, because after eating I feel tired. The body needs energy to digest. This is energy that could go towards being active, instead it’s going towards digesting. Also, didn’t our ancestors seek food during the day since we can’t see at night, and then eat. It just seems that things need to get done first before eating. Surely, it’s common to feel like resting after eating? And to make breakfast a huge meal seems like a strategy for starting the day feeling sluggish.

  • It would be a shame for you not to get rid of body fat while other typical people are able to slim down very easily using Fenoboci Diet Plan (google search it).

  • Yes skipping breakfast makes you lose weight BUT not fat it does not make you lose fat, that is why its better two eat 3-4 times a day whilst working out at the gym for at least 1 hour or more, from doing this you are converting your fat to muscle and you have nutrition in your system. Certain foods that you eat in the morning can also boost your metabolism. But don’t skip breakfast just make sure if you want to lose weight fast to do a mini workout in the morning while on an empty stomach then eat breakfast go to the gym and TURN YOU FAT INTO MUSCLE LIKE A BOSS

  • Hi autumn. I’m a beginner in intermittent fasting. I’m doing the 16/8 method. Mostly of the users skip breakfast but I’m skipping dinner. So my question is what is better, skipping breakfast or skipping dinner? I’ll wait for your reply ’cause I’m a little confuse right now hehe

  • Perfect. I’m talking to my wife about eating breakfast and losing weight and this video goes up. Is SciShow eavesdropping on us now too? Hmmmmm…….

  • I personally found that skipping dinner feels much more natural and is much more enjoyable than skipping breakfast. I really struggled with skipping breakfast, I found it quite difficult, and I saw very slow results. I really couldn’t function while fasting in the morning… my mind was in a fog the whole time. Skipping dinner (or rather having an early and healthy dinner) on the other hand proved to be much better for me personally. I did a video about my experience https://youtu.be/_ZPc2LYFKyk

  • How many days a week do you fast? I’m pretty confused? I started 3 days of 8hrs then a day with 24hr fast in same week didn’t feel hungry at all. Is this correct?����

  • I really want to eat porridge for breakfast but I hate it �� I prefer it uncooked with raisins and nuts but is that as good as eating it cooked? Do you get the same benefits or should I at least soak it before eating it?

  • Great video overall,but I have to disagree with the grilled cheese-turkey sandwich being a good option if you’re trying to lose weight. Not only b/c cheese usually have high amounts of saturated fat, but also because it takes a long time to digest all these three food groups at once;starch-bread; meat & dairy-especially cheese! That’s definitely not recommended for someone who’s obese/or someone who just wants to shed a few pounds. I’m a registered nurse and I’ve learned a lot about nutrition through the years and I’m trying not to be biased-(me being a vegan). But if you want to lose weight,it’s best not to mix more than two food groups together,like starch=bread;rice;pasta etc,with vegetables; meat OR dairy products with veggies,etc. Another great tip is: Only eat fruit and drink water/green tea till 12pm,-(& stop eating after 6-7pm).-Then you’ll lose weight fast! Give it AT LEAST 6 weeks!
    But remember,it’s about changing your entire lifestyle,otherwise you’ll go back to the old eating habits and gain weight again.Eliminate saturated fat & sugar,-that’s the first important baby steps. Good luck.

  • Love Dr. Greger’s delivery! @ 4:18 “WHAT?!” Also am absolutely loving the new book How Not to Diet! I’ve already made some tweaks and am feeling great. Keep up the amazing work Nutritionfacts.org!

  • Thanks for this entertaining, and informative, bit of information Michael. These days, everything is being re-thought and re-analyzed. Seems there are pros and cons to many things. I happen to really enjoy eating breakfast, so, based upon your report here, think I will continue to do so for the coming decades 😉

  • This was a horrid vid PLEASE CAN WE HAVE VIDS THAT ARE definitive your frickin science for crypes sakes i dont care about a maybe and a answer that does answer anything but raise more questions. Stick to the facts its alot more helpful science

  • My body needs lots of calories or I auto.atically lose mass. My metabolism is so high anything I eat or drink goes right through me. I’m happy I can eat as many calories as I want. All thanks to keto diet it changed my physiology permenantly. I’m no longer on the diet I eat whatever I want and I cannot gain weight. Pretty cool

  • Never heard of that one before, at least quite like this. What I usually hear (at least at my corner of the planet) in favor of breakfast in regards to weight loss is more about the benefits of just eating regularly and in turn have less random cravings over the day that you may be tempted to fill with “snacks” that definitely won’t help weight loss because they’re cheap and full of sugar and/or fat. Basically, if you had breakfast, you might be less tempted to get that cream-filled-sugar-coated donut on your way to work. Not guaranteed, but it maybe helps? Also, almost certainly doesn’t help if your breakfast was a cream-filled-sugar-coated donut or two.

  • Personally (statistically representative test group of size 1) I had the best results following the principles of the Warrior Diet by Hofmekler:
    Skip breakfast, lunch is a salad, in the evening do sport, only eat after that. EAT!
    Had incredible effects on my blood sugar levels, too. (Type 1 diabetic) And also sport results were way better than only days before

  • Before watching me within 10 seconds of your video I already know the answer, or at least this is what I learned from high school and I’m watching a billion science documentaries.

    Eating breakfast prevent your body from going into what mr. Melody said was basically starvation mode when your body would burn fat when you exercised. And this would happen even after you ate lunch, something to do with your biological clock I don’t remember the rest of it.

    but when I learned when I got older there is a ton of other ways to do the same thing.

    What are the end what really matters is eating right and exercising. You don’t need to turn do a fitness freak but exercising for like 10 hours a week well it’s a lot better than nothing.

  • Watched a few if your videos. You need to read “The Obesity Code” by Dr. Jason Fung. He clearly explains metabolic changes when losing or gaining weight. His knowledge on the effects of insulin are second to none.

  • I was very skinny and after changing my diet I finally started seeing results. I didn’t know anything about training and diet, but my friend told me for the website called Next Level Diet and I just followed their diet and training plan. They have amazing tips 😉 check it out

  • Since making breakfast the only meal I eat during the day; I would now have to say, based on the results, it does promote weight loss.

  • I have spoken to people from some South American countries who’ve said their governments say lunch is the most important meal of the day. I don’t know if everyone is able to take 1 hr for lunch or whatever, but there seems to be some truth to eating earlier in the day. France is thinner than the US and apparently many French workers are still able to take 45 min, 1 hr or more sometimes for lunch.

  • I guess I’m doing it all wrong again. I mainly miss breakfast because I don’t have the energy/time in the morning. Maybe I’m not eating a big enough breakfast to wake me up.

  • Vid request: could you make a video on hormonal changes and best ways to supplement walking and if to balance your hormones and lower cortisol?

    P.s your posture is amazing any tips?! Love the vids

  • But weight loss isn’t the ultimate goal, is it? Intermittent fasting is said to be efficient practice for longevity and healthspan. And I find it much easier to skip breakfast than dinner.

  • Most week-end I sleep late, waking up at about 12pm or 1pm and so I skip breakfast. I am fat but on these week-ends I loose weight. So for me skipping breakfast some days help me loose weight slowly but steadily. When I was in college I used to do this every day because of my schedule and I lost about 44 pounds. The bad side to this is that after about an year of doing this my blood sugar started going down during the day, basically I started sweating and sometimes shivering. I regained normal blood sugar levels after giving up lots of my sugar intakes and starting eating breakfast again. I also regained 20 pounds during this period. So now I just do this on week-ends and I maintain normal blood sugar levels and I slowly loose fat.

  • Was that the Hamburglar who rushed by??

    Corn Pops, Frosted Flakes, Fruit Loops = yum.
    Honey Combs have changed and taste horrible nowadays.

    Ok, back to being serious.
    I don’t eat breakfast now either. Thanks to Coach Carlo!! ��
    No need for it.
    For me my new normal is OMADone meal a day -and that includes working all day and a CrossFit one hour workout every day. It took about 3 months to fully change to a keto OMAD diet with intermittent fasting thrown in.
    Watch Carlo’s other videos to change and improve your life dramatically too! ��

  • I can’t believe Greger is in his 40’s he looks so vibrant and focused I thought he was in his 30’s. I’m gonna make sure I get my daily dozen from this day on and live forever without any health problems

  • “About” section on Nutrition Facts website states that Dr Greger is a General Practitioner. With respect sir, and to be more specific, are you Board Certified in Family Practice, Internal Medicine, or some other specialty? Also, what has been the nature of your scientific training to qualify you to be doing this investigative work? I ask all this because the lack of these specifics is resulting in skepticism of your credibility on other forums, including ones which have no particular nutritional axe to grind. Thanks.

  • Love this guy (Been following his `stuff“ since he started………….I reckon he should come on with straw boater /cane in hand singing `put it to the test……….put it to the test……..At N F facts we put to the test!

  • Good one. I had a feeling that this arc would end this way, even though the cliffhanger made us think you might conclude with the corporate conspiracy crap. Here’s one other argument: if you are going to get to 30 grams of fiber a day, it’s really hard to do from 2 meals, and if you eat one of those meals out, forget it. Fiber is not served in most restaurant meals.

  • I’ve been losing a couple of kg by skipping breakfast and not eating alot in lunch. I skip most carbohydrates food (if it’s the main ingredient, I’ll eat half). So will i gain or lose weight with eating breakfast? Considering the only place i can buy food is at a convenience store (breads, onigiri)

  • fuckin america “we’ll feed kids only if they get better letters while reciting information”
    instead of
    “let’s feed kids because kids need food to live”

  • Just visit website Next Level Diet and get personalized Diet and Training plan with amazing tips. I lost 15kg in two months. Finally, I have a six pack.

  • I eat 1 meal a day since 88. An army thing. I am just not hungry. I eat 1 meal a day, at night. I was 186 in 1986. Last 50 year old physical last week, blood work, BP, all great. On ocassion I snack here and there and very rarely will eat a lunch or breakfast. Basically cigs, coffee, and one large plate at night. I feel sorry for people that have to eat all day long amd whine like an infant if they cannot eat now. Like I heard Autumn stated before about having an efficient metabolism. Of course, am an ectomorph and was a runner but this type of fasting, reduced diet, or whatever you call it, which isnt healthy at all, works for me.

  • I’m never hungry in the morning until lunch time, at lunch I have a 1l green smoothie (blended not extruded) and have nice dinner. So how about the people who don’t eat breaky and take a brisk 30″ walk to work each day? 😉 I’ll skip this medical insight, for once.

  • I have lost 10lbs in just one month by following diet plan from *Next Level Diet*. It’s really a great tool. I recommended it to my family members and we all started to eat and live healthier. Long live #NextLevelDiet.

  • Just visit website Next Level Diet and get personalized Diet and Training plan with amazing tips. I lost 15kg in two months. Finally, I have a six pack.

  • Not only I lost fat and gained muscle, but I feel more energized and productive throughout the day. My sleep has also improved drastically. Website called NextLevelDiet really changed my life for the better.

  • There is a lot of debate on IF out there, specially on YT where these days everyone are so called experts. I dont believe that only one principal ( aka IF in this example) is everything u need to get ur shredded physique but is definitely a very important tool. I do have one question though. In ur opinion, what is the minimum time u need to fast i order to see benefits from it?
    Cheers

  • It’s important that Dr Greger give clear answers at the end of each video, like this one. In the past, his answer or point of view was more ambiguous. Thank you.

  • 700cals for breakfast what the hell? That’s a hell of a lot. I was expecting 450 at the absolute most (approx two slices of cheese on toast).

  • Conducted from the tub �� Totally my sense of humor! You’re great at keeping the info from being dry. Always recommending your site.

  • If I eat breakfast my day is destroyed.
    I get tired and cant stop eating the whole day.
    It might work for some but not for everyone.
    I prefer doing Intermitent FASTING. I have lose weight, ive got a faster metabolism, testosterone levels over the roof and much more energy in the gym and in general.

    Of course With the right VEGAN diet. TONS OF PLANTS, herbs and sea weeds

  • I used to be a die-hard breakfast eater. Started intermittent fasting in 2012 and now know for sure that eating in the morning is lame for me. My energy stays more even through my work day and I eat afterwards, around 4-5 pm. You get used to it, and there’s no afternoon energy slump. Every time I eat in the morning I get a slump in the afternoon. My stomach isn’t digesting anything so I can drink as much fluid as I want in the morning and during the day without hampering my digestion. As a gardener, I need to drink a lot of water, at least.5 gal during the work day, 1 full gallon on a hot day. Food would get in the way of that as I’d be diluting my stomach acid with that much fluid. All my co-workers get tired after lunch because of the parasympathetic rest/digest, I’m ready to get back to work. All I add to the water is a pinch of baking soda, some potassium salt substitute, and some magnesium citrate powder (Natural Calm, great stuff, dissolves perfectly) so it’s some low-caf black coffee to start, then slightly salty water, then dinner. This way of eating keeps me regular too, all that warm fluid in the morning really wakes up the bowls. Pretty much all men should eat this way, it’s different for women. But all the guys I’ve met who eat this way get benefits. Women gotta keep up the fat levels or they lose fertility, Thomas DeLauer has a good video on it https://youtu.be/d6kDAEiBW-Y

  • Individuals who need to know how to shed pounds quick regularly accept that losing additional weight is constantly troublesome, exhausting and difficult.

This basic formula contains every one of the vitamins and minerals you requirement for the day, with 12 grams of proteins, normal fiber, sugar and 244 calories. At the point when contrasted with prepared to-serve raisin wheat, this hand crafted formula will enable you to chop down 50 calories, 5 grams of fat and 6 teaspoons of sugar.

    2. Boca Burger Grilled Vegetable burger

    The typical American BBQ has a high volume of soaked fats. Rather, go for this delectable, soy-based, high protein, veggie lover elective that has red-ringer pepper, onion, garlic, a couple of cheeses and insights of zucchini. Include ketchup, tomato, lettuce and different garnishes to get the customary burger taste. At the point when contrasted with a customary 3-ounce flame broiled meat burger, this formula can spare you 180 calories and 19 grams of fat.

    3. Tram Roast Beef sub-sandwich

    In the event that you just can’t get by without meat, at that point this lean 6-inch cook hamburger sub-sandwich is an extraordinary choice. It is an impeccably adjusted dinner with vegetables, tomato and lettuce, with only 4.5 grams of fat and 264 calories.

    4. Solidified organic product smoothie

    Blend some unsweetened, solidified blueberries with a large portion of a banana, quarter container wheat germ and water to make your own cancer prevention agent filled organic product smoothie at home. When you contrast this with your consistent canned smoothie from the store, you can spare 200 calories for each 2 to 3 glass serving. Actually, sprinter Bruce Shapiro utilized this same formula throughout the most recent few years to lose 30 pounds.

  • One tip would be that you dont do any video cutting and just let the camera roll. It would be way more natural and wouldnt be as stressful and upbeat. Btw very good info on this.

  • But what are the other health benefits of skipping breakfast. Aren’t there any? I thought that since the body does not have to digest breakfast it can use the energy for cell repair??

  • Skiping breakfast and lunch is then the best solution to pack weigh with the minimal intake, focus on daily activities and to maximize fast time frame. I think is the most frequent formula found in tribal culture: no overweight issue, scarse food but all whole organic dense nutrients!

  • I know for me if I skip breakfast with working a 7am shift, I will get tired faster and hungry before my lunch unless I ate a larger meal before going to bed.
    Personally, I feel I tend to have more energy if I eat breakfast before work. On the weekends, when I’m staying at home more I can usually skip breakfast with no problem. But my job also tends to be a bit on the physically demanding side.

  • intermittent fasting worked very well for me. I’d suggest trying it and seeing what results you get. plus it seems logical that giving your whole digestive system a break each day is a good thing. now to be clear I didn’t sktp morning meal every day, but about every other day randomly. i think it probably cut about a thousand calories a week from my overall intake, and that’s how i lost weight over time about 1 to 2 lbs a month, 14 lbs. in one year. it also seemed to ramp up my energy, my overall vitality. so give it a try and see what you think

  • … I was going to comment on how 23 is a terrible sample size for a medical study. Then I wanted to comment on how skipping breakfast did help me to lose weight. Then I felt a bit stupid.

  • AD WAS PAID FOR BY KELLOG AND GENERAL MILLS CEREAL AND JENNY CRAIG BECAUSE ALL OF THESE COMPANIES ARE LOSING MONEY DUE TO PEOPLE NOT GETTING FAT ANYMORE ON THEIR BS FOOD!!!!! THIS VIDEO IS A SCAM PEOPLE!!!! SKIPPING BREAKFAST CUTS YOUR DAILY CALORIE INTAKE BY 33%!!!!!! YES IF YOU EAT 3 MEALS A DAY AND YOU TAKE AWAY 1 OUT OF 3 YOU LOSE 33% OF YOUR DAILY CALORIE INTAKE AND YES YOU LOSE WEIGHT!!!!! DUH!!!!! LOL!!!!!!!

  • I’m sure breakfast really helps. The purpose of it is to break a fast. You’ve been fasting for 8 hours plus whatever amount of time not eating before you fell asleep. I assuming your body goes into some kinda survival mode after too long and reduces your metabolism a little to fully absorb the next meal. I think that’s why when you finally eat like 4 hours after waking up you feel like you’re gonna fall asleep again even if it was just an apple or two. A lot of your blood just hit the panic button and went to your abdomen.

  • This is really fascinating. Thanks, Doc. I find I’m least hungry in the morning. I also like to exercise in the morning on an empty stomach; so I never eat breakfast.

  • Keep uploading. You need more views. Do you know about 300promo”dot”com!!? It’s a handy tool to help you grow your YouTube following!!!

  • Donavon Hyder I drink a “happy” coffee that is hormone based! Helping with all things hormones. I have lost 15 lbs in 4 weeks, my energy is on point & appetite suppression is solid! I don’t emotionally eat anymore! https://www.facebook.com/groups/1637137069927393/ this is where I found it!

  • I’m never hungry in the morning until I’ve been up for at least 2h and been active, a walk to work does it and suddenly I want food. So my body naturally leans toward a slight intermittent fast and when because of work trips I have to eat earlier I end up always bloated and weird. Every single time. For me the breakfast thing is so not true:/

  • For those not hungry in the morning, it probably can be changed by adopting new eating habits. Trying eating early even when you aren’t hungry and then skipping your dinner for a few days. Or go on 24-48 hour fast. Either of those should make you feel more hungry in the morning.

  • I just hate eating in the morning. Therefore I changed my eating times. I now eat an early lunch. Like 11 AM and an early dinner, when possible at 5, but not later than 6 PM.

  • I just finished reading about this topic in the new book. It’s so fascinating that our bodies will treat morning calories differently than evening calories. I’m inspired to try eating the bulk of my calories early in the day now. As far as the new video format: I love the new intro graphics and music more than the (rather jolting) “shhhwoooop” in the old format. As far as Greger being on the screen, he’s so animated, I find myself looking at him, and not catching the information on the slides. I don’t know, just my first impression. I will say that the hard edits between Greger’s takes could use a more “graceful” transitional effect, like a really quick fade in/out. I’m a huge fan of this man’s work, it’s completely changed my life, and I’m sure thousands/millions of others. Just watched him speak in San Diego last night. Keep on keepin on Dr. Greger.

  • But did they look at studies where you take your breakfast, put it in the blender with 1000% more water, blend it in three different directions, take 10% of that and repeat it with another 1000% of water? This increases the efficiency of the breakfast.

  • Thanks for the video. It would be nice, when you mention other past videos of yours, that you add a link to them in the describtion. Also adding links to sources would be great. Have a nice day:)

  • Props to your writers for such informationally dense and balanced scripts. The exact same information would be inflated 4-5 times longer on other channels. Thank you.

  • Breakfast 2 cups uncooked oats
    2 bananas
    2 Tbsp ground flaxseed
    2 Tbsp raisins
    1/2 cup berries
    1.5 cups oat milk
    Been eating this for years! ��

  • This is sad, bc I’m rarely if ever hungry when I wake and can only do a light breakfast of fruit, a few nuts, tea with ginger and soymilk. If I eat much more I feel like gagging. Main meal is lunch, between 2-4pm. ��

  • I dunno, if I eat anything within a few hours of my waking up I get gnarly stomach aches and severe gut cramps. Breakfast is a dinner for me.

  • I really like the new video format, with you on the video! So much fun to watch! Thanks for all the information, you are the best!

  • Website called Next Level Diet is the best for your body transformation. I lost 20kg by following their diet plan (I also had cheat meals) and training plan.

  • Everyone I know who’s lost 50 to 100 pounds skipped breakfast and most still do. These studies are talking about much smaller amounts of weight. These studies are not showing that obese people lose weight when you make them eat breakfast. That would be the actual proof, and it doesn’t exist. There is some evidence once slimmer and healthy, morning appetite increases, affirming correlation. But it’s not causal.

  • If you ask me, it’s really hard to gain muscle and lose weight at the same time, but website called NextLevelDiet is great for that. They also calculate your BMI and calorie intake for FREE and provide you with diet meal plan and training plan.

  • This information is absolutely the opposite of almost everything I have read on this subject.  Normally love the content, but I think you need to do some more research on this topic.

  • Always follow where the money leads. Always. The plant based/vegan industry is now also worth multi billions and growing incl books, supplements, private retreats/clinics/online health pgms, premade/processed foods, related YT channels and commission based sponsor links, celebrity endorsement etc. Dr Greger hopefully will continue to be a source of objective (credible) science based info minus infomercials or ads. Sadly, the treatment of animals is being lost and sources of news like Daiya owned by Big Pharma co in Japan who do animal testing is lost or the work of activists. Those on YT who used to sold out to cult of celebrity and commercial agendas. Kudos to Dr Greger.

  • “At least 700 Calories” for breakfast? Yeah, um, breakfast shouldn’t be the biggest meal of the day, so they were encouraging participants to overeat all day with that big breakfast.

    2000-2600 Calories per day has been the recommendation for as long as I can remember. Dinners are where we eat the most elaborate meals.
    2300/3 = 766.7

  • I do about an hour of walking everyday. I am curious if it is better to walk first thing in the morning or later in the day? I normally do my walks after work but before dinner. Is that not as beneficial or does it not make a difference? Thanks!

  • My place of work actually does provide free breakfast, three choices of cornflakes or müsli with half-fat milk. And we get free fruit, too, mostly apples and bananas, sometimes grapes or pears.

  • So the research is not very good quality but we’re going to skim over that because the results don’t challenge our previous conclusions? That doesn’t sound like good science.

  • So how do we deal with the sleepiness and likely flatulence that follows just prior to going to work, assuming one works early? And who has that kind of time in the morning for such a large meal, and what about those who eat more at night because it helps them sleep deeper? Please answer these questions, someone.

  • If my goal is weight loss, is there a minimum number of fasting hours that one must do for the benefit (i.e. 16) or does every little bit help? In other words, is fasting for 12 hours better than 8, and 14 is better than 12? Or is there really no weight loss benefit until you’re hitting a higher number like 16? I have trouble going beyond 12, I get really emotional.

  • i just started with intermitten fasting and really loving your videos they are so helpful I’m really binge watching all of them:)

  • Honestly, I never had problems with my weight. I could eat whatever I wanted and still maintain normal weight, but a lot of junk food really affected my health. Diet plan from Next Level Diet contains delicious and nutritionally rich foods your body, brain and heart will love. It’s definitely worth trying.

  • I started doing this 15 days ago. I was 86 kg and now i m 79. I never felt this much fit and energetic in my life. Breakfast is the biggest lie with religion in history.

  • As a teacher, I’ve noticed kids in my class that eat breakfast absolutely do better and are more emotionally stable throughout the day.

  • I don’t know why we devote all these resources to studies like this.This question is like asking if putting gas in your car in the morning gives you better gas mileage than filling up in the evening. With breakfast, the only difference it makes is how much you eat and if it helps you eat less the rest of the day. Other than that, it is simply math. Calories burned vs calories consumed. If you ate the same amount of calories for lunch and dinner every day for a year but skipped breakfast vs not skipping breakfast, all you are doing is adding the calories for breakfast to your total every day. The results of that are obvious.

  • Well part of it could just be those who eat HIGH SUGAR or FAT breakfasts, can do WORSE than those with a Low/Non-Fat and Low Sugar Breakfast I imagine.

  • I used to never eat breakfast when I was a younger man because I wouldn’t generally feel hungry until closer to lunch time regardless of when I woke up, and shoving a bunch of food in too early would make me feel sick. However, with lifestyle changes I have been eating a small breakfast every day for about 8 years now and definitely feel more awake more quickly during mornings since making that change.

  • I would think the reason breakfast is said to be the most important meal of the day is because its the first meal of the day. No science behind it at all, when you first eat your body starts working and then you can start working. On a personal note what i have noticed through life is that people who skip breakfast are often low on energy and compensate by eating lots of sugar and when its time for lunch they are not hungry and eat something small then compensate again with more sugar. I dont think its very good to promote the idea of breakfast not being important since any well functioning adult person could tell you it is.

  • Breakfast totally helps me lose weight, when I eat breakfast(of course, how does one define ‘breakfast’), I feel like crap for the next 6-8 hours, and I don’t eat lunch, so I consume far less calories in the day. Wait, that is the opposite of good health….

  • Hi Autumn, love the videos. There was an article published this week in the journal Obesity related to intermittent fasting and decreased hunger in case you haven’t seen it. Small sample size but it’s good to see more studies: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/oby.22518

  • Could you please do a video on Tofurky sausage? Is it healthy for daily consumption?

    I am working out/training for professional wrestling. Is it okay to make tofurky sausage a daily part of my diet? Right now I have smoothies which are mainly blueberries, tofu, peanut butter, 10 bananas, kale, spinach, flax, hemp, chia seeds, and celery.

    I was thinking of jumping to salads. I was gonna make an oil free dressing with an avacado as the base. The salad would be of arugula, kale, spinach, celery, garbanzo, kidney, and black beans with walnuts. The following meal would be ten bananas mashed into a pudding with chia, flax, hemp seeds, peanut butter, walnuts, and blueberries.

    Anyway with the salads I was thinking of cooking my tofurky sausage with rice and mushrooms. All my greens would come after. What do you think? Is tofurky sausage not healthy enough to be in a person’s daily training diet?

  • As per the study-A randomized controlled trial to study the effects of breakfast on energy intake, physical activity, and body fat in women who are nonhabitual breakfast eaters mentioned in last video, people eating breakfast tend to gain more weight. This is inspite of eating just average 266 more calories. Now where does the concept of breakfast being less fattening apply here. Also I believe the results of big breakfast study are yet to be released. For me…the results of study in last video and study mentioned in this video are contradicting.

  • hey autumn! I love your channel and trust your information because I have noticed results. Would you mind doing a what I eat in a day vegan? I am vegan and I work as best i can with your tips but id love the inspo! <3

  • I hate it when people bring up correlation and stop at that when it comes to doing science. You need to be able to isolate and identify variables in your experiment, identify potential systemic errors and make sure your data is statistically significant. Than you examine your hypothesis whether or not it explains data not the other way around and if there is any better explanation, you have to trash it all and get to the drawing board all over again. Also your hypothesis should be based on theory that explain mechanism in terms of current biological or physical laws. This is why the question: “Does Eating Breakfast Really Help You Lose Weight” is a bad hypothesis. Help/not help is meaningless, because what does it even mean? It has to many variables you can not account for, whatever you answer it will not explain the mechanism of getting fat. Its better to ask: HOW not DOES something happens. How eating breakfast….nono wrong, breakfast is irrelavant word here…How different time patterns of food intake affect the mechanism of gaining weight. For that you need to take blood samples, measure insulin levels as well the levels of melatonin, cortisol and prolactin, design experiment in closed environment with many different subjects, subject them to uniform diet, measure the rate of de novo lipogenesis and overall activity in terms of energy expenditure. Finally you have to make sense in terms of chemistry how physiology of a human body differs in the morning from the one in other times of the day.

  • break fast i practice king and pauper eating largest meal is plant based breakfast modest lunch small salad for dinner… works for this 70 year old

  • OR, you can eat a balanced breakfast on training days and fast all day on rest days with steady/low impact cardio and still reach weight loss and fitness goals. I’ve done it and currently still do. However, I switch it up a little depending on what’s going in my life. Ie, events, etc..

  • what? “whether eating breakfast improves adults performance at work hasn’t been studied very much”?? ever heard of intermittent fasting and all its benefits?? like the significant increase in cognitive functions? come on…

  • Can you please do a video showing some good and healthy vegan meals to eat when doing intermittent fasting for all the vegan peeps watching you:)

  • All I could think when they talked about school breakfast was how much easier it was to pay attention to what the teacher was saying when your stomach wasn’t talking over them and how the breakfast program at my elementary school was one of those little boxes of cereal and some milk

  • Looking at pictures of you with your shirt off stimulates MY insulin. And be insulin I mean nether regions. And by nether regions I mean junk. And by junk I mean my penis.

  • I guess it heavily depends of WHAT you eat for breakfast. 700cals before 11 am just seem to much. All the other studies don’t seem so meaningful. ��

  • The study mentioned here says the weight of breakfast eaters stays the same as non breakfast eaters, even if they ate more calories. I wonder if there is a study that actually shows breakfast eaters LOSING the weight with the same number of calories. Makes intuitive sense, but you don’t know until you…. put it to the test!

  • For anyone who missed Aaron’s original video that totally demolished breakfast

    Breakfast. Take it or Leave it. https://youtu.be/Syleh_6Aopw

  • Do natural popular lose weight diet plan like Custokebon Secrets really work and if so, how effective are they? I’ve noticed numerous amazing things about this popular lose weight diet plan.

  • Healthcare triage did a great episode on this (check them out if you want more videos on health topics!) and Dr. Carol basically said eat breakfast of you’re hungry in the morning, don’t worry about it if you’re not hungry. Don’t force yourself to eat breakfast if you’re not hungry. Also, the video didn’t address this part, but one of the reasons breakfast can affect academic performance may simply be because kids who aren’t hungry will pay attention better! If I didn’t eat breakfast before school I would be thinking about lunch all morning and not paying as much attention in class as usual. But again, leave it up to the person, if the child isn’t hungry, that’s fine. We want to simplify everything when it comes to diet and although we all need some basic things, the truth is some needs can vary.

  • Dude, I only skip breakfast if I get too active to stop for it, also if I skip breakfast I get waaay waaay hungrier for lunch and eat more at lunch, snack and eat like crazy all night if I get the chance. Can’t help it, I’m an eater. Just how it happens for me. I love my oatmeal. So if I eat packed oatmeal and a fruit salad, maybe I won’t be so hungry later. Thanks doc. Gonna give it a try!

  • Breakfast is very inconvenient. Not only it’s another thing you gotta do in the morning to get ready for work, but you are also not even hungry and don’t want any food. So you end up stuffing yourself just because “breakfast is the most important meal of the day”. Just do this: eat twice a day, skip breakfast. You don’t need food early in the day, your stomach is still asleep. Body works great on empty stomach. I ski and do strenuous hikes in the mountains on empty stomach. Then eat a good dinner so you’re not thinking about food all evening. The weight will fly off, as long as of course you’re eating a healthy diet. If you’re still on cookies and cream puffs, then nothing will save you and there is no hope for you.

  • My doctor told me that I should eat something when I get up, even if it’s just half a banana. Something about getting energy levels up after sleeping (and not eating) for 8-ish hours so i don’t feel tired the rest of the day. It was a few years ago, so I don’t remember the details. What other research is out there on the benefits and/or drawbacks of eating breakfast?

  • Autumn, so do are start counting my “time” after I’ve finished my last meal? I finished my dinner at 6 so do I start counting my fasting time from there? Example, I calculate 16 hours and that’s when I eat again. So I’m breaking my fast at around 11am. Am I doing it correctly?

  • Breakfast: 1 cup rolled oats + 2 cups cold water. Microwave 5 minutes. Add half a pinch of chia seeds and some fruit. Eat.
    (Don’t skip breakfast; skip the added sugar.)

  • What’s sad is that for decades health care professionals have been telling overweight patients they HAVE TO eat breakfast. The fact of the matter is, many people aren’t hungry when they wake up. Then when they start moving appetite comes on. We also don’t need to eat “breakfast food” in the morning. Pancakes, muffins, toast, etc will end up making you tired and hungry shortly after eating.

  • • Eating more food doesn’t make you lose weight? That’s poppycock! Burn them at the stake for such devil-talk. (I genuinely wish that the official reports had the word “duh” in them. That would be priceless.)
    • The only way breakfast could make you lose weight is if it caused more satiety, thus making one skip or eat less lunch and dinner. Obviously adding breakfast to the same lunch and dinner as before doesn’t result in weight loss. Duh indeed. ��

  • Im always hungry in the Morning but i only have an appetite for some fruit, juice or like something sugary, later on i get my appetite for other things.

  • I’m naturally more active at night and I’m tired and my brain just doesn’t work in the morning (until like noon, not 9 am). And I found that when I wake up later, like I would naturally do, without alarm clock, I’m not hungry, feel good and full of energy, I don’t eat until about 6 pm. But when I wake up earlier and don’t get enough sleep, I need to eat right away and continue until I go to sleep. What’s even worse, I only crave sugar, don’t want healthy food with proteins and all. So I guess, contrary to these studies, I’ll keep waking up late whenever I can and not spend the whole day eating.

  • Hi Autumn! I’m wondering if I skip breakfast because I don’t feel hungry and then eat a normal lunch and dinner (meaning that I don’t eat more) is it healthy? I don’t feel hungry for the first 4 hours after I wake up

  • Excellent video as always, I have an other place to point people towards when they tell me you should eat breakfast, to lose weight.
    PS. The new style of thumbnail is really aesthetic

  • If you eat breakfast you most likely have a better diet which results in being in better shape. All depends on what you eat for breakfast ofcourse.

  • Do we know that our nutrient absorption doesn’t also go down at breakfast? One thing I know for sure is that early in the morning, my body does not feel like ingesting anything. It would be force to have a large breakfast.

  • Great video overall,but I have to disagree with the grilled cheese-turkey sandwich being a good option if you’re trying to lose weight. Not only b/c cheese usually have high amounts of saturated fat, but also because it takes a long time to digest all these three food groups at once;starch-bread; meat & dairy-especially cheese! That’s definitely not recommended for someone who’s obese/or someone who just wants to shed a few pounds. I’m a registered nurse and I’ve learned a lot about nutrition through the years and I’m trying not to be biased-(me being a vegan). But if you want to lose weight,it’s best not to mix more than two food groups together,like starch=bread;rice;pasta etc,with vegetables; meat OR dairy products with veggies,etc. Another great tip is: Only eat fruit and drink water/green tea till 12pm,-(& stop eating after 6-7pm).-Then you’ll lose weight fast! Give it AT LEAST 6 weeks!
    But remember,it’s about changing your entire lifestyle,otherwise you’ll go back to the old eating habits and gain weight again.Eliminate saturated fat & sugar,-that’s the first important baby steps. Good luck.

  • How important is exercise for health and weight loss! So many people say it’s 25 % exercise and 75 % diet, but I see people eat more when they work out and they stay lean from fitness so I think the ratio has to be off unless someone is severely overweight, then I can see how that applies moreso.

  • So Autumn, is skipping breakfast is bad during my intermittent fasting? My eating window is from 11am-7pm. I skipped my breakfast everyday, so is that bad to skip my breakfast? Lots of my friend telling me that skipping breakfast is very bad to body.

  • I’m glad I found your channel. A few days ago I started doing intermittent fasting. I did research and for my schedule, because I work 10-12 hour shifts, I decided to do the 16/8. I weigh 236 and would like to get down to 180 in the future. It’s a trial and error, but I’m glad I found your channel. Thank you.

  • Is Sr. Greger looking a little bloated, pasty and unwell? Just a little concerned here, he may need some animal protein rich in nutrients to fix that.
    Breakfast=break fast, what and when you eat it, that is extremely important!! Eat a low glycemic breakfast at 2 pm most days. Maintaining muscle mass, fitness and ideal weight easily.
    A lot of freaking sheep here that enjoy their echo chamber of cognitive dissonance. Go ahead, eat soon after waking and eat every 2 hours, hopefully you don’t wear your pancreas out and become a diabetic.

  • I wonder if you could say sth about how to decide how much and how often you should eat on IF especially when starting. I assume later it must be easier to feel how much you should eat during eating window for your needs but it’s hard in the begining. I especially want to know if I should wait with the next meal until I’m very hungry or rather eat often and less. You talk much about eating a lot and enough during eating window, but not about spreading the meals. �� I subscribed recently, great content, thank you for all the info. ��

  • Well it sort of is the most important meal, because by definition it is your first meal, and I would say eating every day is pretty important.

  • Like everything related to diets, it depends on what you eat. The issue with breakfast, or any meal for that matter, and for the same caloric input, is what type of food one eats?
    As others have pointed out, the aim here is to eat foods that make one feel satiated, and thus skip/not require snacks in between meals.

    Cereals or other foods high in carbs are digested quickly. 2-3 hours after eating a meal rich in carbs and the person will feel hungry again, and resort to eating cookies or whatnot, increasing their total caloric input. A “heartier” breakfast, for the same number of calories, will keep the person full for much longer, as the food will require longer to digest.

    Does this change the person’s metabolism? Probably not. But changes how they digest their meals and affects the number of calories they consume.

  • Looking at milk I’m not to sure but the other foods yeah I still use milk however it’s mainly for my shakes because milk replacements taste gross

  • See I find breakfast to be a gateway drug. Once I kick start my appetite in the morning by eating, I just want to carry on eating all day. But if I fast, I don’t get hungry until 5pm. The only effective way I have found to lose weight is by intermittent fasting

  • It just doesn’t get any easier than simply not eating so much. It is the perfect lazy person’s guide to weight loss and the most natural possible way too!

  • Next Level Diet website makes it simple. Select food you like and they give you PERSONALIZED meal plan with tips, TRAINING PLAN and healthy recipes.

  • Maybe people who skip breakfast are actually more likely to be obese to begin with, and skiping breakfast is meant to combat that. It’s like surveying people who go to the doctor they’re more likely to be ill. Does that mean doctors make you ill?

  • Hey Carlo, these days I’m finally seeing my abs in the mirror and real motivated to do more training and intermittent fasting but I ask this alot but, if I’m doing the omad diet, can I get what I want??( Eggs,Bread, Rice, Beans and meats like fish, chicken etc ) I’m also cutting out sugar drinks and snacks

  • Couldn’t disagree more, I’ve been skipping breakfast and undertaking HIT in a fasted state and weight has been literally dripping off my body with no loss of strength or muscle mass. I’m all for evidence based science and decision-making but in my case, anecdotally, skipping breakfast is the best weight loss decision I have ever made.

  • Glad to hear that, as I usually eat a heavier breakfast and lunch, but something light for dinner/supper. I always feel weak and sloppy if I don’t get that energy boost from food in the morning:(

  • Wow. So my husband gained 10 pounds over the holidays and started this morning fasting in the morning, so essentially skipping breakfast and then I watch this! Maybe he will change his mind now. Lol.

  • Isn’t the definition of the word breakfast “breaking your fast”? Intermittent fasting is like you said, not skipping a meal but lengthening the time of the fast…so, you technically are eating a breakfast. ��

  • Hi I love how to did this video looks so nice keep up the good work can u tell me please how did u get the picture of the foods the writing and the audio for ur video or which app u use to create I hv been searching for one like this a couple of months now and never got true so glad I met up with this wonderful video can u help?

  • this is a bit confusing since we use kilocalories instead of calories, but it seems most people think of them as one and the same. and in that case, 700kcal/cal breakfast is quite hefty in my opinion… i would think something along the lines of 300kcal for breakfast is better (eaten before 8am) followed by a meal around 10am-noon of roughly 700 -1000 kcal, small meal between 3pm and 5pm (maybe 300-500kcal) and finish with a snack around 8pm 200-300 kcal, this is for a male in his 30s, with little physical activities during the day, so add to it for someone who would do hard physical labor. (tho, most efficient way to lose weight (for me) was to eat couple slices of rye bread (with ham+cucumber) every 2 hours, with one small meal during the day, lost 8 kg in 2 months just with this, tho i weighed over 104 at the time:D this is due to keeping digestion going, it uses up a lot of calories just to do its job, so by eating every 2 hours, it was functioning a loot longer than it usually did in my case, since i used to only eat 2-3 times a day, and huge meals)

  • I’ve went from 87kg to 80.6kg in 2 weeks just by simply eating healthy and less amounts as well as lemon green tea and plenty of exercise.

  • Some thoughts about the study and how it was presented here:
    1. Such conviction in stating “breakfast doesn’t promote weight loss” considering it was later conceded that the studies included in the meta-analysis were poorly designed/executed. It’s a leap to go from “there’s no definitive evidence that breakfast promotes weight loss” to “breakfast doesn’t promote weight loss”
    2. The closest thing to a statistic presented here was “people who don’t eat breakfast lost a pound” which says nothing about people who DO eat breakfast.
    3. Re: the above finding, what population were the studies sampling from? People trying to lose weight? People considered clinically overweight? Without this information it’s especially dangerous to generalize to all people with food security.
    4. What possible confounds were controlled for? Activity level? Familial/environmental support? Professional support? History with weight and dieting?
    5. You conflate intake with weight change. Activity level can significantly interfere with the correlation between intake and weight change. I bet outside of controlled settings people with active jobs have higher average intakes than people with desk jobs.
    6. This is just me speculating, but going off of my previous point I wouldn’t be surprised if people who ate breakfast were more likely to exercise since they had more energy. I wonder if that was looked at or controlled for in any of the studies included in the meta-analysis.
    7. How long did the included studies run? Were subjects followed up with down the road to see if they’d continued eating or not eating breakfast and how their weight had changed or not changed? Were there lasting impacts of the study?
    8. What kinds of food were being eaten in the breakfast-eating groups? Was it different from what subjects ate for breakfast before joining the study? Were they given a certain amount or certain type of food to eat?

    All of this to say I don’t necessarily believe breakfast promotes weight loss (my inclination is to say that it varies drastically by person) but I certainly don’t trust a 2 minute presentation of a study and it irritates me that the findings are being presented in such a clickbait-y way.

  • I guess intermittent fasting is out. I was waiting to about 11 am to have breakfast, but I also usually get up later, like 8-9 am.

  • You know what happens when I don’t eat breakfast? By 10AM, I’m STARVING. And then I’m DESPERATE AND STUFF MYSELF BEYOND FULL BECAUSE I’M SO FUCKING HUNGtRY. I eat far more if I don’t eat breakfast.
    How do you not eat breakfast without being SO FUCKING HUNGRY before lunch? It’s not a craving, but rather being willing to sell your shoes for vending machine money. How do you cease hunger so as to not eat, and lose weight? If I could just stop being hungry, I’d lose all the weight I need to.

  • You know what I’d like to see an explanation of? Why journalists and other presenters are so animated with their hands. It’s absolutely deliberate, because ALL professional presenters do it. I can sort of get an intuitive understanding as to why imagining a presentation in which a speaker simply stands there, arms at their sides the whole time, would be a bit creepy, maybe even boring. But is that because there’s some psychological quirk to it, or is it just because that’s what we’ve become accustomed to seeing? Sometimes, it gets on my nerves, and sometimes it doesn’t. But some sort of explanation would be _awesome 😉

  • I tell all my friends to check out Lyfe Tea. I started with healthy recipes, and got to place where I couldn’t lose anymore, and Lyfe Tea really helped me.
