Common reasons for not eating breakfast include lack or time, not feeling hungry, traditional dislike for breakfast and dieting. Breakfast simply means: break the fast. Your body spends at least 6 to 12 hours each night in a fasting state. In the morning your body needs energy for the days work ahead. A good breakfast should provide up to 1/3 of your total calories needs for the day. On average, we eat 400 calories less for breakfast than for dinner.

Thats because your body is working. Although you may feel as if you are eating more all day long, in fact you are probably not. Not eating breakfast can last cause you to overeat, since a fall in blood sugar often makes you feel hungry later. Whats worse, since your body is in a slow state it will not be able to burn those extra calories very efficiently. Breakfast is the first and most important. The best breakfast foods are fruits, juice, meat and grain products such as bread, rice and noodles.28.

Who was this person I knew as my father, who seemed so friendly and interesting to be around? What had held him back before? The next day my dad pulled out his childhood pictures and told me quite a few stories about his own childhood. Although our times together became easier over the years, I never felt closer to him at that moment. After so many years, I am at last seeing another side of my father.
