Something that I am hearing more and more often from clients and friends is oh I don’t eat breakfast though so I should start losing weight right?
WRONG
Okay it might work, quite often it doesn’t, or it makes it harder for the rest of the day and it certainly isn’t sustainable, as some days you’re going to need and want breakfast.
Here’s how having breakfast can actually enhance weight loss and make your journey easier:
🦁 You’re not leaving yourself as long to wait for food which means you’re less likely to get cravings
🦁 It fills you up(particularly protein based breakfasts) which means you’re less likely to reach for those snacks late morning that are quick and easy(and often high in calories)
🦁 You have more energy, meaning you can burn more calories from earlier in the day and be more productive
🦁 By spreading your daily calories across that extra meal it means that your body can make use of the nutrition that is being put in your body more effectively as there is less going to waste.
But this doesn’t help with your struggle to find the time for breakfast?
Let’s fix that too!
Okay so you might love that extra 10 minutes in bed in the morning rather than getting up and preparing breakfast, and tbh I’m all about the extra 10 minutes too.
So let’s prep our breakfast so that it’s ready to grab and eat?
Try some overnight oats? There are loads and loads of different recipes and versions of this.
I keep mine simple:
40g oats
1tsp chia seeds
1-2tsp syrup
Enough almond milk to cover the oats
Give it a mix and leave it in the fridge overnight.
And feel free to add some fruit to top it off in the morning.
P.s I’m not a good blogger so these may take some work to improve.
