The "Break-Fast" As the name suggests, it is clearly a Meal to Break your Fast – after a good nights sleep, Breakfast marks conclusion of fasting since the previous day's last meal.
This is clearly the most important meal of the day. Breakfast usually consists of foods that are high in energy content. "So Eat your breakfast".
Well, imagine you're a car. After a long night of sleeping, your fuel tank is empty. Breakfast is the fuel that gets you going so you can hit the road.
Eating breakfast not only aids in weight management, it fuels the body to help provide energy, better concentration and problem-solving ability throughout the day, according to the food and nutrition experts.
Why Breakfast?
Forty years of breakfast related studies show that jump starting the day with breakfast benefits everyone -- children, teens and adults. "Eating breakfast is very important for the brain and the body first thing in the morning". "Breakfast skippers often feel tired, restless or irritable in the morning."
Breakfast is the first chance the body has to refuel its glucose levels, also known as blood sugar, after eight to 12 hours without a meal or snack. Glucose is essential for the brain and is the main energy source. Blood glucose also helps fuel the muscles needed for physical activity throughout the day.It helps curb your hunger and prevent binge eating later in the day. Breakfast is important to manage your weight and potentially lose weight by eating less calories throughout the day."
Additional Simple, easy tips to add to a Healthy Breakfast:
• Choose Fruit for Breakfast. Fruit gives you fiber. Fresh fruit is the best choice. There are many to choose from: oranges, grapes, apples, bananas, , mangos, watermelons. Eat two servings of fruit every morning.• Eat High Fiber Hot Cereal. E.g Oats
• Choose Whole Grain Bread. Eat two slices of toast in the morning. Spread with fruit spread.
Final thoughts:
Take time to eat a large, balanced breakfast. It’s a good investment of your time. Once you get into the habit of eating breakfast, you may feel hungry in the morning.

Time Management - B/f Sumathi
Imagine that your bank credits your account each morning with $86,400. It carries
over no balance from day to day. Every evening it deletes whatever part of the
balance you failed to use during the day. What would you do?

Draw out every cent of course!!!
Everyone has such a bank. Its name is TIME.
Every morning it credits you with 86, 400 seconds.
Every night it writes off as lost, whatever of this you have failed to invest to good purpose.
It carries over no balance.
It allows no overdraft.

It carries over no balance.

Each day it opens a new account for you. Each night it burns the remains of the day.
If you fail to use the day’s deposits, the loss is yours. There is no going back. There
is no drawing against the “tomorrow”. You must live in the present on today’s
deposit. Invest it so as to get from it the utmost in health, happiness and success.
