TO eat breakfast or not to eat breakfast?

This should not even be a question, unfortunately this is a question that has plague me most of my adult life. This is what I know about breakfast. When doctors and other experts tell you that it is the most important part of your day they were not kidding. It jump starts your metabolism, and feeds you energy throughout the day. Now if you are like me you are probably thinking but I hey I am saving calories! You are this true, but not in a good way. Here is why you body has two different types of moods feast or famine. When you think of feast it is when there is plenty to eat, your body has enough to be nourished, and properly feed. When you think of famine this means your body thinks there is not going to be enough nourishment to fulfill its needs. When this happens your body does two things, first it takes the nourishment it needs from your body, this sounds food right? Well, let me tell you were it starts. Your muscles, so you become weaker not so good. Then it takes your calories that you eat and stores them as fat tissues. Does this make since? I think we cover this topic in every nutrition class I take, {probably because a lot of people skip meals}. Sad but true.
Here is the problem I know a lot about what happens when we skip meals, and yet I find myself doing it. To overcome this I have develop a goal system. It really is simple. I take one day at time and set a week goal. I tell myself if I eat breakfast everyday this week then I will: feel better, lose more weight, and most importantly set a good example for little monkey. I am also going to give you the best diet secret that I have in my bag. This is let others know your goals, and set up a support system. We all have fallbacks but it is nice to have someone to fall back on, to tell you it will be ok.

Quick story so I told my little monkey that mommy has to eat breakfast everyday. This is all I said and since then when I am making her breakfast in the morning she will point blank ask me if I am going to eat breakfast. If I say yes she smiles, if I say I will later. She goes into the speech I gave her about how important breakfast is and I have no choice but to eat too. What a funny girl I have! I am just glad that she is listening to me!
