Taking breakfast between 8-9, lunch between 1-2 and dinner between 8-9 is optimum for good health. If you have to leave so early then no probs in taking early breakfast but between lunch and breakfast try to have some good amount of salads or fruits or juices.

Hi lybrate-user, Breakfast is most important meal of the day. The first thing which you should do right after getting up in morning is eat a healthy and wholesome breakfast (no lemon water, green or purple tea plz). This is because our bodies are at 8-9 hours of fasting when we get up, it needs real food to start up its metabolism (fat burning is also a metabolic reaction, which can't be accomplished without food). Eat poha/dosa/idli/paratha/upma/chila or anything you like to eat. If you skip breakfast, it’s like driving a car without fuel. Your body will perceive it as stress and start storing fat. You will also face issues like low energy, gastric troubles, sugar disturbances etc. There are two pillars for weight loss. Diet and exercise. Although right diet can control further weight gain and assure overall health, exercise is must for weight reduction. 30 mins walk (to start with), with well-balanced diet (depending on your health condition) can lead to gradual and healthy weight loss. Workout, eat well, be patient. Your body will reward you. I would be happy to help you. Please consult me privately so that I can understand your problem in detail and device a diet plan for you. You can book a private In-person/Text/Audio/Video appointment for further discussion and personalized advice.

Take breakfast around 8-9 am. Take small and frequent meals instead of large meals and take it in the interval of 2-3 hours.

Dear Lybrateuser, -Your breakfast timing is ok, to reduce weight you should combine a carbohydrate food with a protein & healthy fat food & do regular exercise -have yogurt with paratha or a paneer paratha, try to add a protein food with all your meals, also have more of fruits & vegetables & wholegrains as they have less calories & keep you full for a longer time, reduce intake of carbs at dinner -do regular exercise like brisk walking, jogging, swimming for 30-40 min, also do yoga to keep mind & body fit.
