Eat Breakfast to Lose Weight

"Breakfast is the most important meal of the day." You've probably heard that line a thousand times before, but its just as important as ever - and yet many people still skip breakfast, without realizing the great benefits it has to your health and weight.

When you don't eat breakfast your body goes into famine mode. Your metabolism slows throughout the day, for every hour you don't eat. Eventually, that big meal you ate during lunch will turn mostly into fat. If you eat breakfast your body will burn most of your calories throughout the day instead of storing them.

The most common reason why people skip breakfast is that they don't have enough time to sit down and eat. If that it was is keeping you from eating breakfast you can always try breakfast bars. Many new breakfast bars have similar benefits to eating a full breakfast, and can save you time in the morning.

Whatever you do, try not to skip that all important meal in the morning. It is so tempting to rush out the door, but its one of the easiest and most effective ways to boost your metabolism and keep you energized through out the day.
