Can't eat in the morning?

My husband was one of those people who used to say that he couldn't eat in the morning. I spent 25 years trying to get him to eat breakfast. Then I finally got smart and asked him why he couldn't eat breakfast. After much discussion, the bottom line was that if he ate breakfast, he was hungry by 11:00 a.m. Once we started him on a breakfast that met his nutritional needs, including making his brain be more alert and clear, he didn't get hungry at 11:00. Part of this was also telling himself that he wouldn't be hungry at 11:00, but mainly it was giving him the right nutrients to feed the brain and keep it functioning at a clear and healthy level.

Are you telling yourself you can't eat breakfast? Do you only eat or rather I should say drink coffee for breakfast? More tomorrow on coffee.
