The discussion centers around the significance of breakfast in relation to weight management and overall health. A participant notes that among those surveyed, a majority who skip breakfast tend to be overweight, while those who eat breakfast regularly are not. This leads to the assertion that skipping breakfast may negatively impact metabolism and weight control. The conversation explores personal breakfast habits, with many sharing their preferences for breakfast foods, including eggs, cereals, and fruits, while some express difficulty eating in the morning. Participants discuss the importance of breakfast for cognitive function, particularly in children, citing studies that show improved academic performance among breakfast eaters. There is also skepticism regarding the motivations behind breakfast research, suggesting that some studies may be funded by cereal companies. The dialogue touches on individual experiences with hunger, meal timing, and the impact of breakfast on daily energy levels. Overall, the thread emphasizes the varying attitudes toward breakfast and its potential role in maintaining a healthy weight and enhancing mental performance.

I must have remembered the wrong name.

I'm 22, so that certainly isn't old or it isn't anymore. (It was old when I was in high school. :smile: )

Normally those who ask for Ensure are 40+.

Don't take any offense, but... you're stupid. :rolleyes:

My daughter was drinking Ensure when she was 17. She just wanted something quick and low volume. She didn't want to eat a lot.

Oh, I forgot - leftover pizza makes a good breakfast - 2 slices - microwave - splash on hot sauce - eat. :biggrin:

Leftover lasagna or spanakopita are also good for breakfast.

I'm just going with the majority. Just like Prune juice.

I thought about it myself before because it's easy and simple.
