Breakfast is one of those meals that are extremely versatile, but also very much debated. Many people say it is the most important meal of the day, and that to skip breakfast will slow down your metabolism and have a negative impact on the rest of the day. Others, like Marcela, say you should wait at least 3 hours after waking up before you have your first meal. This is called intermittent fasting which is said to help you burn more fat during the day. We recommend doing what feels best for you!
