Weight loss could prove to be an overwhelming time for a few. All bodies are not the same, hence each journey also does not guarantee same results, but that does not mean you start starving yourself or skipping meals. According to some experts, our metabolism is the best during mornings. Which means, whatever you eat in the morning gets used up by the body fast. Therefore skipping breakfast is not really a great idea if you are planning to shed some extra kilos. However that does not mean you start stuffing yourself with anything. An ideal weight-loss friendly breakfast should be low on simple carbohydrates. They should be high on protein and fibre. Since both of them take long to digest, they keep you full for long and prevent cravings. It is also advisable to choose whole fruits over juice. Juicing fruits may cost you healthy and weight loss-friendly fibres.
