Wellness Challenge - Eat Breakfast Every Day

For the upcoming weekly challenge, we are challenging the participants to "eat breakfast every day." Are you tired of hearing about how breakfast is the most important meal of the day? Well, this advice probably not going to stop until more of us start eating our morning meals. About 18 percent of males and 13 percent of females between the ages of 35 and 54 are breakfast skippers, according to a 2011 study by the market research company NPD group.
