When it comes to starting the day right, we all have our own preferences and ideas about what makes breakfast an effective meal, but at the end of the day, there are three major types of breakfast that most of us can agree on. In this article, we’ll discuss each of these three different types of breakfast and why they work so well as ways to start your day off right!

Choose what you enjoy

With so many different choices available to you, there’s no reason you can’t enjoy breakfast every morning. Whether you eat your food in a quick and efficient way or slow down and savor every bite, all that matters is that it’s something you can continue to do for years to come. And if weight loss is one of your goals, making time for breakfast can be a huge help! Studies have shown that people who skip breakfast tend to be heavier than those who don’t. If you eat breakfast regularly and try to limit sugary drinks and refined carbs, chances are good that weight loss will follow suit.

Choose what makes you happy

People often get stuck in ruts where they automatically make and eat familiar foods. Sometimes those meals are comforting, but other times, you just feel tired and uninspired. If you want to jump-start your morning with a change, choose something new based on your favorite flavors or textures. For example, if you love salty breakfast meats like bacon or sausage, opt for an omelet next time. Or if smoothies are more appealing to you than poached eggs on toast, start making them at home (they’re a cinch to prepare). Explore healthy breakfasts that speak to your personal preferences—after all, what makes breakfast special is that it can be whatever works best for you.

Choose what works for your body type

While you might see breakfast and assume that it’s some one-size-fits-all meal that everyone can consume, most dietitians will tell you differently. While all breakfast foods are naturally quite similar (they’re breakfast, after all), there are multiple types of breakfasts that can make your morning a little more satisfying. Take, for example, high protein vs low protein breakfasts: Protein is incredibly satiating thanks to its ability to increase your body’s metabolic rate, making it a great way to kickstart weight loss and keep it off.
