Do you other members skip breakfast? Is this whole issue more about WHAT you eat for breakfast instead of timing?? I find such contradictory information…….

Well, Thanks for your time,

If I'm hungry when I wake, I eat.  Otherwise, I don't eat until I am hungry – or a bit afterwards, even (sound advice for any time of the day, really).  Typically it takes a bit for my CNS to switch on and for things to get moving, so being truly hungry upon waking is a rare occurrence.

In my experience, the issue is as much about what you take in as it is when.  JS has a damn book's worth of material on this subject on this website.  The depths are as deep as you care to plumb them and matters can be as simple or as complex as you choose to make them.

Of course you find contradictory information.  This is the internet – anyone with a below-average grasp of English can claim to know something and (unfortunately) disseminate that "knowledge" worldwide with the click of a button.  Since most people don't do much of their own research and thus tend to take things at face value, they become confused because the words of the internet "expert" and those of actual researchers and practitioners are written in the same black text on white background with no obvious way to differentiate them.

My best advice: listen to your body, eat when you're hungry (not when you're bored), rest when you're tired, and GO OUTSIDE AND PLAY every chance you get.
