Weight-Loss Rules for Breakfast

Skipping meals is never a good weight-loss strategy, especially when it comes to breakfast. Eating in the morning wakes up your metabolism, helping you burn more calories throughout your day. A solid first meal of the day also helps keep you feeling satiated so you eat fewer calories later. If you’re working to drop pounds, keep in mind these four breakfast rules.

Eat breakfast within 1 hour of waking: We know that regular breakfast eaters are less likely to be overweight, but the timing of your first meal is important, too. It’s best  to ea breakfast within 1hr of waking. An early breakfast helps maintain your circadian rhythm and boosts your metabolism early

Go for protein, not sugar: While pancakes dripping with syrup sounds scrumptious for a Sunday brunch, it’s not something you should devour regularly for breakfast. High-protein choices, like eggs, Greek yogurt, whole grains, and nuts, are lower in calories and provide more energy than a sugary pick-me-up.

Eat at least 8 grams of fiber: The key to losing weight is to eat foods that make you feel full, so hunger pains don’t drive you to eat high-calorie foods. For the first meal of the day, go for tons of fiber — at least eight grams. If you’re in a rush, a fruity smoothie can be very good . Or pour a bowl of of cereals.

Don’t go overboard on calories:
Depending on your weight, your weight-loss goals, and what you eat for the rest of the day, it’s important to keep your breakfast calorie count between 300 and 500. Choose low-calorie options like veggie omelets, Greek yogurt, fresh fruit, and whole-wheat toast. A bowl of cereal is another great option;  If you’re into smoothies, you can also try some
