| | | | | Busy Mums Burn More Fat With Breakfast by Holly Rigsby | | | Breakfast is easily the most overlooked solution than all other
fat burning tips combined.
Q: Breakfast.
I always eat breakfast but often don't get to it until about
an hour or sometimes two (if I'm up early) after I get up. Is
this OK or do I have to eat earlier than this? (I'm busy during
the week getting the kids ready and off to school). What's the
maximum amount of time I can go from waking to eating brekky?
A: Hooray! You are eating the most important meal of the day!
Many Busy Moms tend to skip this meal for a variety of reasons.
However, doing so will only work against your body's ability
to lose fat.
Skipping breakfast will only send the message to your body that
you're starving - you haven't had food in the last 6-8 hours.
This leads your body to SLOW your metabolism for survival purposes.
You essentially are choosing to start your day in fat storage mode.
PLUS - if you do not start your day with a supportive breakfast,
it is only natural that by the time lunch rolls around - You are
STARVING. The best of intentions cannot overcome the cravings
that accompany this feeling. Sure, you may start off your "lunch
time" snack or meal with something you consider to be quite
healthy. Yet, those nagging cravings do not go away and you are
compelled to eat more.
To make matters worse, skipping breakfast also leads to eating
more later in the day - a big "dinner". Eating more calories
during the last meal of the day, when your metabolism is
naturally slower during the second half of the day and slower
because breakfast was skipped leads your body to store those
calories as fat.
In fact, studies show that people who skip breakfast and eat
fewer times during the day tend to be heavier than people who
eat a healthy breakfast and eat four or five times a day. If
you skip meals, you tend to feel hungrier later on and you
will eat more than you normally would.
To get the Best Benefits of Breakfast - yes, eating within an
hour of waking is best. Breakfast will provide you with the
energy you need to get through your day. The more energy you
have, the more active you’ll be and the more active you are,
the more calories you burn.
Favorite Busy Mom Breakfast: Cereal is a MUST. It’s convenient,
easy to prepare, easy to eat and full of nutrients – No…”Whole
Grain Lucky Charm” does not fall into this category. Choose
cereals carefully based on the information on the food label.
Top Breakfast Choices have:
~ 5 grams of Fiber or more
~ 8 grams of Sugar or LESS
~ Sugar is not listed as one of the first 4-5 ingredients. | | | | Article Source : Article-treasure.com | | Publication date : 08-18-2008 | | | | Article by Holly Rigsby | | | | Holly Rigsby is CPT, MAT America’s #1 Fat Loss Expert for Busy
