in the mornings I am just not hungry...and don't get hungry until about 12...should I have something small to help my metabolism...or should I listen to my body?

I don't overeat at lunch at all...so thats not a problem...

You definitely need something to kick start your metabolism in the morning.

I'm the same way. I've been buying to Atkins bars to eat for breakfast. I usually wind up bringing them to work and eating about 10 am.

I think you should get your metabolism going with a little something for breakfast, even if you aren't hungry. Your body might go into starvation even if you don't feel it and and cause yourself not to be burning calories.

especially breakfeast. Im the same way Erica. Im not hungry when I wake up, so I have something small, like a small bowl of cereal, or a yogurt. Just to last me till lunch, and I drink a lot of water

What are you eating at dinner? How late do you eat and what do you eat? Are you exercising during the day?

These may be the reason why you aren't hungry.

I eat a medium dinner usually...nothing really fattening (since I am dieting)

the latest would be like 7-8...but usually 6ish

I have been slacking in the exercise...mot my usually 2 hour days...but definitely about 30 min of some sort of cardio

I was never a breakfast eater-- never and decided that once I went on program I would have to be-- well let me tell you -- it def makes me want to eat lunch earlier but I am so much better off eating breakfast-- i noticed a huge change-- I usually don't eat until I am settled at work 9around 10 am or so) and sometimes the yogurt sits on my desk for quite some time-- but it is so much better to get something in you-- hard to do at times but completely worth it--
and water water water--
