Wow! You are consistent with advice, Ron Singer.....
consistently bad! Whether it be progressive wagering to overcome negative expectation, right on through to health/nutrition/eating advice.
Skipping breakfast is about the worst thing a human being can do. Skipping meals, especially breakfast is why people's metabolism slows as they get older. It also reeks havoc with blood sugar levels contributing to the epidemic that is diabetes.
A person should eat within 60 minutes of waking and then every 3 hours throughout the day, even if only a piece of fruit or snack. That stabilized blood sugar levels and sends a message to the brain that there will be sufficient food supply and nutrition throughout the day. Skip breakfast and the message sent is that there is NOT sufficient food and nutrition coming and the body immediately goes into what is known as "starvation mode". Obviously you are not starving by missing one meal, but it is the body's preservation mode. And the first thing that occurs is metabolism slows. Doing this regularly and metabolism slows permanently.
So there is nothing wrong with your lobster Roll at 11am, if that is something you desire, but make that your second meal of the day. Have a bowl of oatmeal or muffin or something shortly after waking and then work towards your 11am nutrition intake.
Ok, since I have corrected this bad advice, let me do another. Stay away from progression wagering. It doesn't change anything as far as winning and losing....just redistributes the wins and losses a bit.
