I saw the following message posted by somebody smart on this website and have been thinking about it.
“If eating breakfast works best for you, do it. If not eating breakfast works best for you, then do that. Simple as that. “
Can’t find this post now, so please forgive me for not attributing this quote to its Author at the movement.
I do eat breakfasts every day. Breakfast helps me to prevent hunger later on.
I start my day off with a good breakfast. For me it means non-starchy vegetable, fresh low-sugar fruit, lean protein, whole grain bread, and healthy fats (I take Omega 3 supplement).
This is my average day but I generally eat the same things from day to day:
blueberries, blackberries, or apple.
1 slice of dry, 100% whole-grain toasted bread with 1 slice of 99% fat free turkey breast.
1 fresh tomato
hot tea (no milk, no sugar)
As you can see it is not a typical "breakfast foods". The protein consumption, when eaten as part of the daily first meal reduced my appetite throughout the day. I also believe that it jump-starts my metabolism and sets my body in the optimal fat-burning state.
It was very important for me to stick with protein breakfast option.
Eating like this was initially a little challenging, but I got used to it. It has become a part of my eating strategy that caused me to lose 91 pounds without feeling hungry.
