Excess body fat may be a concern due to poor body image, but serious health problems should also be on your mind if you’re considering weight loss. Instead of focusing on losing weight as quickly as possible, think about an overall lifestyle change.
The best place to start is with breakfast. Breakfast really is the most important meal of the day. It sets the tone for the entire day. Eating a satisfying and filling breakfast filled with the nutrients your body needs will keep you fuller longer, which prevents overeating during lunch or dinner, or snacking too much during the day.
Foods high in fiber and protein are a great choice for boosting energy and metabolism.
