The growing prevalence of obesity in childhood and adolescence has aroused the interest of researchers around the world about the associated risk factors. Modifiable factors such as eating behavior are very effective in controlling obesity. Skipping meals and, especially, skipping breakfast has been associated with weight gain. Behavior that is worrying in adolescence due to the construction and consolidation of habits. Objective: to evaluate the association between skipping breakfast and being overweight in adolescents attending public schools in the city of Salvador (BA). Methodology: Cross-sectional study composed of a sample of 560 adolescents of both sexes studying in public schools aged between 10 and 17 years old. Among anthropometric measurements, BMI and waist circumference by age were evaluated. Breakfast consumption habits were obtained during the application of the 24-hour recall, with the structured question “how often do you eat breakfast?”. The adolescents were separated into “Breakfast Skip” and “No Breakfast” groups. The data were entered in duplicate into the EPIDATA software and the SPSS 20.0 program was used for statistical analysis. For association, the chi-square test and significance level p<0.05 were used. Results: Of the 560 adolescents, 30.7% were overweight, 22.3% had increased waist circumference and 18.8% skipped breakfast. No association was found between skipping breakfast, excess weight and changes in waistline, however, in the “skipping breakfast” group, 52.8% were under the age of 14 (p=0.007) and female adolescents consumed breakfast less frequently than males, with 78.6% and 85.9% respectively (p=0.044). Conclusions: There was no association between skipping breakfast and being overweight in adolescents, but this was associated with sex and age and with a higher prevalence trend among those with changes in anthropometric measurements. It is important to highlight the high prevalence of overweight in the sample.
