The Most Important Meal of the Day

The Most Important Meal of the Day

Posted by onthegofitness Nutrition

Protein for Breakfast is Always a Good Idea

http://streaming.yayimages.com/images/photographer/lana-m/f26c26ea5f849f8393c427b4993cd013/banana-milk-shake.jpg Your first meal of the day also happens to be the most important one. You are waking up, your system is waking up with you and it needs just the right amount of energy to get you started for the rest of the day.

It makes all the sense in the world why you should be paying more attention to what you eat for breakfast, but sadly several people consider it to be a good idea to skip it. They are of the opinion that since they are to get a fewer amount of calories in, might as well not have anything for breakfast and save the calories.

Why Skipping Breakfast Never Works:

If you identify with the people we just mentioned above, we are a little sorry to inform you that you trying to save your calories by skipping breakfast is actually going to make you eat more calories in the later part of the day.

Here’s what happens: you had your last meal last night, you go to sleep, you wake up feeling hungry. A low-calorie and healthy breakfast can keep you feeling satiated, but since you are not going to have any of that you go without food even longer. It isn’t even time for lunch yet, but your stomach is growling with hunger. And with good reason! And since you are super hungry you want to eat something now.

You get less time to think about what you are eating, you are more prone to eating junk and any sort of unhealthy food item available to you at that moment. A protein shake for breakfast could have packed you fewer calories and kept you full, as compared to the donut you ended up eating which was not just high in calories but also did a really poor job at eliminating your hunger.

This is why eating protein in breakfast to lose weight can be just the thing you need.

High-Protein Breakfast:

Several studies confirm that people who have a high-protein breakfast are more successful at keeping the cravings that may pop up later, at bay. So if you are trying to lose weight, manage weight, bulk up or are just trying to eat better, having 10-20 grams of protein in your breakfast can really help you meet your fitness goals.

You will feel fuller for longer, you will consume less calories later because you are not that hungry to begin with and you will have amazing energy to get you through the day!

An even better aspect of this deal is the number of high protein breakfast ideas you have at your fingertips. Whipping up a whey-protein shake, spreading peanut butter on slices of apples, eating an egg and cheese roll or chomping down a burrito with beans you can make your protein breakfast as delicious as you want it to be!
