Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. After a good
night’s sleep of 7-8 hours, your body is in need of
nourishment. Your body, after waking up and beginning the
day, is in starvation mode. The hours you sleep will most
likely be the longest break you have in between meals, and
this triggers your body to hoard calories. Skipping breakfast
can lead to weight loss problems and decreased energy throughout
the day.
| By integrating protein, carbohydrates, and
fiber into your morning meal, you are starting off the
day on a healthy note that will keep you energized and
keep your body at its maximum calorie-burning potential.
Breakfast accounts for 25% of your metabolism. This means
that, without breakfast, you only have the potential to
burn 75% of the calories that your body could normally
burn off. In order to stay peaked at 100% of your metabolism,
it is necessary to eat breakfast, and then 3-4 other small
meals throughout the day. |

Also, try to incorporate healthy, well-rounded foods into
your breakfast. Oatmeal is a great, filling breakfast. Cereal
high in protein offers all the nutrition you need, and it
is a time saver. Eggs or egg whites are an excellent source
of protein and can be cooked a variety of ways, to suite anyone’s
tastes. Another high protein idea is low-fat cottage cheese.
Add fresh fruit to any meal to get that sweet taste, as well
as some much needed nutrition. When you are really out of
time and ideas, a meal replacement shake or bar will offer
all the nutrition you need in no time!
