It has been said in the past and still holds true, breakfast is the most important meal of the day . The key to successful weight loss start with eating something for breakfast, and yes even if you re not hungry.
Our metabolism wakes up in the mornings and it needs fuel to burn in order to start working and to provide you with plenty of energy for your body and mind during the course of the day without this fuel, your energy will be limited. Bad nutritional habits like rushing off to work and not eating anything till lunch time is extremely bad your your body and metabolism and also increases your urge to binge on all sorts of snacks and junk food during the day, which will obviously be detrimental to your weigh loss goals.
Did you know that although uncommon practice, having some protein in your morning breakfast actually does your body a world of good? Protein in the mornings help your body detoxify faster and this process is important as your body will not fully metabolize stored fats until this initial cleansing has been done. Try having some solid protein for tomorrow s breakfast and notice the difference it makes to your level of energy during the day. Have a piece of chicken, steak or bacon and not just an egg or two.
To lose weight fast, be mindful of your carbohydrate intake during breakfast as well as the rest of the day. Stay away especially from the starch filled carbohydrates like white bread, rice, noodles and potatoes. These processed foods are not easily digestible by our bodies, don t release energy fast enough, and as a result get stored as fat a lot quicker. Instead, go for natural organic foods if you can such as vegetables or mushrooms for your breakfast.
Certain foods that contain good fat can also be added into your breakfast menu to help increase metabolism. These good fats can be found in raw nuts, seeds and avocados, as well as extra virgin olive oil and coconut oils. They contain good amounts of omega 3 and also help our bodies burn stored fat. Consider using coconut and olive oil when cooking your breakfast and throw in some avocados into your salad, and you ll be helping your body fire up your metabolism to full throttle.
Some people find that they just aren t hungry at the start of the day and if this is the case with you, you will need to re adjust your digestive system. It is not natural for us not to feel hungry in the mornings but it can occur with people who have poor nutrition, don t get enough exercise or don t sleep enough. Other things to avoid are having coffee or alcohol too late at night. This in total results in a lack of energy during the day and a very slow metabolism which could also result in weight gain.
