Everyday Systems

[Note from Reinhard: this post was from a spambot, but I'll let it stand (after blasting the account to smithereens) since it prompted an interesting human response!]

Hellow...... friends. we will discuss about the breakfast is beneficial or not. In my views breakfast is beneficial becuse it provides the energy of the body and you are become fresh during the hectoic work schedule.

Thanks.......

Breakfast can be beneficial for some, and detrimental to others...

'Breakfast' is officially the first meal of the day after fasting during your sleep.
it doesn't have to be in the AM, and the body doesn't know what time it is on the clock.

Where Breakfast can be beneficial is that it can help set the tone well for the rest of the day. And of course, help create a habit. It also makes it slightly easier to handle the late night munchies ( knowing "I can eat again as soon as I get up tomorrow")

But then some people (like myself) actually feel even more 'hungry' or more ready to eat following breakfast, as if the first taste wakens their appetite. After lunch, I don't really feel much hunger... Only after breakfast... But I just try to get through it. But for some they might decide to just wait 'til lunchtime for this reason.

There's no right or wrong.. Breakfast isn't a magic meal in itself..
Two meals or three meals, heck even 1 meal can be doable for life.. If it's comfortable.

It's just that for many, not eating breakfast, leads to snacking on donuts or mini chocolates at work by 11am; thus craving heavy carbs/sugar by lunch; snacking after lunch; having dinner (and feeling lethargic after dinner); possibly eating more sugar, and sleeping poorly.

For many who don't eat breakfast (in a bid to cut down calories) they don't have any plan to combat the fizzy drinks, donuts or cookies their colleagues offer them. They may end up eating all (or more than) those breakfast calories anyway, but with high sugar foods that play their insulin.
They may have been better off having a solid breakfast, and it may have been easier to hold out 'til lunch, when they could have a more solid meal.

There are also some people who just don't feel like eating first thing in the morning.. I was one of them.
During my school years, I'd wake up at 7am, and I never ate breakfast, unless my Mum could force me before she left for work.. But at 1pm (or possibly 11am-ish (breaktime)) I'd start thinking about eating.. A drink would be enough until then..
I'd get back from school, and eat something small; have dinner, and possibly something small again before bed...
I was very slim, athletic, and healthy throughout my school years.

So I'd say while breakfast isn't needed, having some form of routine probably is.

Much more important than the number of meals is sticking to that number, not snacking and cutting out the sweets during the weekdays.
But I would agree three meals is a good place to start.

I'm one who needs to eat breakfast within a couple of hours after I wake up. Normally, I like to drink 2 cups of black coffee to wake myself up, and then I'll have breakfast. If I don't eat breakfast by about 9 AM or so (I'm generally up by 7 AM), I'll end up eating quickie carbs or really high fat foods, and my eating is screwed up for the rest of the day. If I eat a good breakfast, however, I tend to eat better the rest of the day.
