I don’t feel hungry in the morning and making/eating breakfast feels like a chore. Is there anything you do that helps you feel hunger in the morning?

I eat a light dinner with mostly vegetables and stop when I’m still a little but hungry. Drink a glass of water before bed to feel full. I wake up hungry and wait to drink coffee until I have eaten. Coffee first thing kills my appetite.

Sounds relatable, don’t we all feel that way come morning? Try something easy at first like cereal or quick oats, the body needs fuel after a long slumber. Even if I’m not extremely hungry I still manage to get a few bites of a granola bar or a banana. Around mid morning my appetite comes like clockwork. It’s all about giving your body proper nutrition.

Try to stop eating sooner in the day the night before. Give your body time to completely digest that food while you sleep by giving it a few extra hours to fast. You can also try to complete a workout in the morning, so that after you’ll have a small appetite (or maybe a lot!).

No, but I always try to eat at least something before leaving home. If you’re not feeling hungry, try to at least eat something even if it’s not much, like a piece of fruit.

Only eat when you’re hungry, don’t force it. If you’re into keto, you can make "bulletproof" coffee or put heavy whipping cream into your coffee to get in your fats without eating a ton. Or you can make some "fat bombs" or smoothies to get dome concentrated fats, proteins, and vitamins.

I’ve been there, mostly it happens when there’s little to none physical activity in my day. So I started going on walks in the morning for about an hour, it really helps to start the day with a fresh mindset, as well as it makes me feel hungry. If you don’t feel like going out, try a workout session for half an hour after you wake up. It will definitely help you feel hungry and then you can eat and reward yourself! This way, you’ll be able to have a healthy workout and a great breakfast too, it’s a win-win :)

I understand the feeling. For years I wouldn’t eat breakfast because I wasn’t hungry. It wasn’t until I got pregnant and had gestational diabetes that I was forced to eat breakfast. I found I had more energy in the morning. The habit has stuck and I can’t go through the day without starting off without having my breakfast.

On mornings that I am not particularly hungry, I’ll drink a big glass of water and eat something really small. That usually gets my appetite going and about 30 minutes to an hour later, I’ll be hungry enough for more breakfast.

I use to be like that all the time and to this day I still am occasionally. I am not sure why I am hungry some mornings and some mornings I am not - maybe it has something to do with how active I have been the day before. I just know that when I don’t feel hungry I will wait a little while before I eat breakfast. I don’t force myself to eat and often times just a little something at breakfast goes a long way, especially if it is a protein with a whole grain.

I dont have advice on feeling hungry, but breakfast is an important meal. Instant grits is a good breakfast. All you have to do is pour boiling water over and mix. You can even add greens and a fried egg for embellishment.
