Breakfast…it really is the most important meal of the day
I am always amazed by how many people I talk to that do not eat breakfast on a regular basis. The two most commons reasons I hear are: 1) I don’t have time and 2) I have trouble eating so soon after I wake up.
Breakfast really is the most important meal of the day. Why? Think about it this way…the last thing you had to eat last night was at 9pm. You went to bed at 11pm. You woke up at 6am. You SKIPPED breakfast. You ate lunch at 12 noon. You have just gone 15 hours without eating. During this whole time, you are depriving your body of very important nutrients. The result being a lack of energy, and possibly weakness (not what you want if you are planning on doing SLOW BURN that day), and you could become lightheaded. This fasting is also going to have a detrimental affect on fat loss. Any weight loss you see is going to be water and muscle.
If you don’t have time to make breakfast in the morning, you need to prepare ahead of time. One idea might be to boil a dozen eggs every Sunday night and store them in the fridge so that you have breakfast ready to go each morning.
If you are in a rush, try making a whey protein shake and blend it up with blueberries and strawberries and flax seed oil (protein/carbs/fat) and water and you have yourself a complete meal to go.
So take the time to plan ahead, and start your day off on the right foot.
