Breakfast! It’s supposedly the most important meal of the day. It sets you up for the day ahead, and skipping it can have detrimental effects on our health. We wanted to find out what breakfast means to our Cafestudy members.

There were lots of suggestions for favourite breakfasts.

French Toast with bacon, maple syrup and lots of fresh fruit with a pot of English Breakfast (tinky)
The ideal breakfast is sitting in a cafe, paper in front of me and the old faithful....juice, 2 eggs, bacon, tomato, mushrooms, sourdough toast maybe a hash brown & well made latte (rednal)
Some like it simple – Weet-Bix and toast/vegemite.

I like eating healthily! or at least i think so... In my opinion, breakfast is the most important meal, which gives energy on a whole day! That's why, it should be balanced in this way: more carbohidrates, enough protein and less fats.
My suggestion in this case is simple: take 1) oats, 2) protein powder and 3) water/milk - mix it together, and you will be fine! for better taste you may also blend it...
My gf found this recepy is so strange, but I don't care...

I am someone who skips breakfast most of the time and I'm still trying to get rid of this awful habit because I've come to realise that breakfast is one of the most important meals of the day regardless of anything that you do during the day. Nowadays, I resort to quick forms of breakfast most of the time like a simple bowl of cereal or a bread with a spread. Somedays, I like to prepare french toast, toasts, etc.

Mon - Fri
Simple; into a blender place 2 weetbix, tablespoon honey, 1/4c frozen berries; 1 cup milk. turn on whizz. put into cup; get into car; drive and have breakfast.

or

Toast with hard boiled egg; mashed and honey. Toast = carbo; Egg = Protein and the honey is a boost of natural insulin LOL.....if not honey - marmite

weekend; simple; omelette with caramalised onions; or mushrooms; slice of toast with marmite; and a glass of juice (usually cranberry or blueberry),

Yes, when I skip breakfast, I over eat for the rest of the day. So I make the time for breakfast.

I find, 2 eggs with 2 TB water, bet then place in hot as pan , 40 seconds, run the egg around the pan until cooked, middle should be little runny, place cheese, ham or what ever you what in it, them fold in half so the heat cooks the middle, 40seconds and it yum

what one has for breakfast depends on ones' lifestyle. the more active a person is, the more nutrition needed to sustain the body. whatever one has, it is a benificial way to start a new day.

Breakfest is very important it is the meal that gives you the most energy throughout your day. it is vital to eat breakfest (cereal) every morning as it builds up the immune system to be stronger.Cereals contain protien, iron and calcium in which they are very healthy for the bodies muscles, productiont of energy and bones.

For breakfast you can eat as much as you can. It's like 'fuel' of your body.

Oats with sultanas... anywhere between 3 & 7 AM daily. If I miss lunch it doesn't matter so much.

For someone that needs high energy level during the day, I have a bowl of oatmeal and a banana smoothie! Helps keep up my energy through the entire day!

Breakfast, is in fact the most important meal of the day.
Me being a student, i jnow that if i don't have breakfast i am not motivated to absolutley anything. But when i have breakfast, i'm more switched on and can concentrate on my school work.

I LOVE WEETBIX, and TOAST!!

Actually the best way to loosing weight in a healthy sustained way is to make breakfast your largest meal of the day. It has to be quite substantial and "healthy". (hint try making Bircher Muesli. Quick, easy and cheap to make. Can easily vary ingredients. DON'T add sugar).

Then dinner should be light and the smallest meal of the day. (hint try lentil soup. High in protein, also quick, cheap & easy to make and vary).

All meals need to be consistently healthy. Consistency is key.

Having protein in morning after long night fasting would decrease crave for foods during the day time for those who want to lose weight.

Breakfast is a huge part of living a healthy lifestyle, too many people skip it and the effects yet subtle are very detrimental.... a healthy breakfast needs to be full of wholegrains, protein and the right carbohydrates.... weetbix, toast with eggwhite omelet, porridge.... be creative and enjoy life to its fullest :)

I honestly love weetbix in the morning. but aslongs as you are breaking your 9 hour fast (average time for sleep) it is healthy whatever you eat. unless it is like chocolate and that
