Breakfast is the most important part of the day when it comes to eating. Having protein in your breakfast will keep you feeling fuller for longer and it helps keep your sugar levels normal. Not having a protein based breakfast will have you wanting to eat just an hour after your eaten and you will probably snack on more carbs. My Tip: Add protein to your breakfast.
