Breakfast, Waking up to a Great Day

Choose the most correct statement:

1. Logic: eat less = gain less.
2. Reality: skip breakfast = gain weight.
3. The Truth: eat right breakfast = be right.

Have you ever skipped breakfast thinking that it will help you trim the waistline?  You and millions of others… every day.

It is simple, really.  Breakfast might be the most important meal of the day but Mornings are the most important time of day.  Think about how they shape your day; when you get out of bed groggy and think that you will have a grey day.  Now think of the contrary, when you get out of bed happy and you feel like you will have a great day.  Breakfast, consequently, falls during this period; the setting of the day.

Making breakfast wonderful is in our best interest.  It will not only take part in the shaping of our day but more specifically, each of the following meals.  Each meal thereafter has a set “Guideline” of Quality, Quantity and Time Spent.  Dodging breakfast however will de-stabilize your whole body, alter your bodily timing and shock the stomach come lunch.

When we go to sleep the stomach goes into “sustenance mode” and shrinks.  Missing out on breakfast prolongs this effect until lunch.  Then at lunch the stomach is forced from its small and sleepy state to stretched and stuffed, involuntarily. (Imagine being woken up by someone shoving a loaf of bread in your mouth).  You are setting your day to be grey, very grey.  And that is just one day.

1. This same process over the course of a month will stretch the stomach enough that the belly is pushed out appearing like obesity. (Early stage of obesity: stretched stomach, it can contain more food.)
2. Concentration, alertness and activity slow because the metabolism is hindered.
3. The body wants to sleep longer in the morning and stay awake later because the body views lunch as the start of the day (which is generally breakfast’s role).
4. Sleep is restless. The body has energy after dinner and wants to use it.
5. This is all after 1 month; imagine after 1 year, 5 years.

Answer to above question:

1. A. Logic: eat less = gain less.
2. B. Reality: skip breakfast = gain weight.
3. The Truth: eat right breakfast = be right.

Why? Because it gives your metabolism a standard.  And to be Right you must practice Right.
