We discussed the importance of eating breakfast and shared breakfast ideas:-

Eating a nutritious breakfast sets the tone for the day and promotes weight maintenance and weight loss by maintaining blood glucose levels and metabolism.

When you burn more calories than you consume, you lose weight.  When you eat breakfast you activate a process in your body that stimulates your metabolism.  Eating a meal in the morning boosts your metabolism more than eating the same meal in the evening.

Skipping breakfast can throw off your body’s rhythm of fasting and eating.  When you wake up, the blood sugar your body needs to make your muscles and brain work their best is usually low.  Breakfast helps replenish it.  If you don’t eat it you are not likely to get all the nutrients that your body needs to kick start your day.

Some breakfast ideas

  • Overnight oats – oats, yogurt and frozen berries left in fridge overnight
  • Baked oats – mix oats, egg and berries, bake 
  • Poached egg on protein bread
  • Omelette either with one egg and two egg whites or two full eggs – put in whatever you fancy to fill it up – very satisfying breakfast
  • Weetabix with yogurt and berries left in fridge overnight
  • Bacon medallions, mushrooms and tinned tomatoes
  • Low fat sausages – any brand (or veggie option)
  • Boiled egg
  • Cereal bars or protein bars
  • Fruit

Have a fab week everyone – next week we are discussing WILLPOWER!!
