I recently read an article in a magazine that caught my attention. It was describing how missing breakfast is so bad for our bodies. I think you'd have to be living under a rock not to know this, as health experts are constantly telling us that the first meal of the day is the most important. I know this; yet sometimes I just can't help but skip this meal. I'm not sure if it has something to do with waking up late (it's 10 already, I'll just wait till lunch to eat), or if I'm ever in a hurry (I'm not that hungry, I'll just have a coffee - GUILTY!). Whatever the reason, it has to stop.
The article detailed how you're better off to eat a donut than to skip the first meal of the day. Funnily enough, this is kinda true (although I definitely would not eat a donut for breakfast every day!). Your body responds to not eating for hours and hours by slowing down it's metabolic rate, and by eating breakfast, you essentially wake up your metabolism. Additionally, research has constantly shown that those who eat breakfast have a better chance of losing weight, and keeping it off.
I know that after a bit of research, I woke up and made myself a beautiful breakfast of scrambled eggs, toast, avocado and tomato's. What did you have?
