I had a bowl of oatmeal and toast for breakfast and its now 2pm and I am not hungry. Should I have lunch anyway? This happens to me alot. After breakfast I'm like never hungry.

There may be alot of people who disagree with me, but I would say yes... at least eat some sort of snack... otherwise, you are going to overeat later when you actually do get hungry... maybe some sort of protein (string cheese, nuts, etc.) and a fruit...

If I wasn't hungry I wouldn't eat just because "it's time to eat" but I never have that problem.  lol

What time do you eat breakfast?

See, I think everyone's different and I guess it probably has to do with our metabolisms. Me? i'm hungry every two hours til about 5 pm, but if the last thing I eat in the day is dinner at 6 I'm set. I don't need a bed time snack. Some people don't really get hungry during the day and like big dinners and bedtime snacks.

It's up to you, just make sure you plan your day so get enough calories
