The first thing what we do in the morning is glancing at the kitchen and ask “What’s for breakfast, coffee or tea?” or perhaps in a rush to work end up without having breakfast. You may be even lucky enough to grab some cheese sandwich, Egg Muffin, pancakes, sausages or sometimes English fry up. But when it comes to weight loss or staying healthy none of these foods would work. Many readers wanted to know how a healthy breakfast should be. Due to stressful environment we either skip breakfast in a hurry to go to work or we are out of healthy food options.

The major problem is people generally tend to skip breakfast thinking that it would be very helpful in reducing weight but it’s ultimately a loss for them as they have to stay empty stomach. The loss is that when you are on the verge to start working your blood sugar gets low due to skipping of morning breakfast. The end result is you need to get your sugar level back to normal and to get it back to normal you would eat unhealthy food like pastry or pasta. On the other hand breakfast does not come in healthy flavors. Below are some of the options which people consider:

  • Food that contains more sugar like pancakes, donuts, pastries, pies, sugar cereals, breakfast bars, muffins. These foods contain low protein and starts of your day with high blood pressure.
  • Too much fatty food like fried eggs, bacon, egg muffins and much more

What does it leaves us with? Formation of high calories resulting in heart disease and obesity. In order to lose 10-15 pounds of weight you need to control your diet which is understandable that it is not a very easy task. Here are some the tips which would not only help you in weight loss but also enhance metabolism which helps in cutting down calories. The more you burn calories the quicker you would lose your weight.

  5. You can also eat eggs for breakfast.
