    Breakfast actually isn’t that necessary as a meal, if you’re not hungry or you don’t feel the urge it’s okay to not eat and hold out for lunch with just water. When I eat breakfast it just makes me want to snack more throughout the day.

      Breakfast is necessary for me, because I won’t be able to eat lunch if I don’t eat breakfast and then I’m not even really hungry for dinner. It’s okay this time of year, but in the summer I need to really force myself to get some food in me because the heat of the day will further reduce my appetite and I get pukey in the sun.

      I do carry snacks with me, but they’re not the ideal breakfast, and it’s much nicer when I just remember.

      As a note, it’s not great advice for me that I can just listen to my body’s hunger levels, I lost 14 kilos in my first summer in my new country by doing that. I’m in contact with my doctor and we’ve figured out how I can best manage the heat and keep myself at a healthy weight, so I’m not in danger of that anymore, but that advice is not one size fits all.
