The truth about ... the breakfast
Breakfast - the most important meal of the day?
As for losing weight, there is no rule. Everyone can decide for themselves. If you never miss your breakfast in the morning, you should stick to it. Conversely, if you just do not get it down in the morning, you should not force yourself to do it. It could otherwise be that too many calories come together throughout the day.
Conclusion: Important or not - you decide, according to your habit.
Does not one get a missing breakfast later by eating more at lunchtime?
That could not confirm examinations. The diet of people who ate breakfast in the morning and did not show it: on the days when they did not have breakfast, they ate something later in the morning. But this snack had significantly fewer calories than its usual breakfast.
Conclusion: To save calories - for example, after an opulent dinner - it is not wrong to skip breakfast. There is no risk of eating more than usual at the end of the day.
In the morning like an emperor - is that still valid?
Absolutely no, if you pay attention to your figure. If you eat a lot in the morning, you will not be hungry for the rest of the day, according to a study by the Technical University of Munich. There is no automatism. That means: If you treat yourself to a sumptuous breakfast in the morning - such as eggs with bacon, cakes, etc. - must be careful during the day so that the calorie balance does not get out of hand. Although our breakfast accounts for only ten percent of the daily amount of food and also has fewer calories than lunch or dinner. But it has the highest energy density compared to the other two main meals - so it provides many calories per gram. And this is mainly responsible for bread, which alone accounts for 35 percent of the morning calories. At breakfast, the easiest calories are saved, for example, by making bread thinner and sliced into smaller appetizers topped with little or no spread fat and low-calorie ham, cheese, vegetables or quark.
Conclusion: If you pay attention to your weight, you should not let it go unchecked in the morning. Otherwise, you'll need to save calories throughout the day, which is much harder for most people than it is for the morning.
