skip
 

My doctor said it is not good to skip meals, and all so said that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. I try to eat three good meals a day. But I was never good at eating breakfast, so that is the meal that is the hardest meal to eat.

Actually, breakfast is just the first meal of the day. It could be the only one, just as it could be roast beef and potatoes at 8 pm!

I don't know I just find I have so much more energy when I eat breakfast. I don't eat a real big one but I try to get some fruit or yogurt in me before I leave the house.

I'm trying to lose weight, and my doctor told me that skipping meals could slow down my metabolism and make the weight loss more difficult. That was all I needed to hear to convince me to eat several small, healthy meals instead of one big one.

But if your weight is fine and you're feeling good, why change what's working? Dietary "rules" are fine as far as they go, but in the end you have to do what works for you.
