Morning Calories

It’s a well-known weight-loss truism: Eating a lot at night can promote weight gain, primarily because the body doesn’t burn as many calories while you sleep. Happily, the reverse is true: The calories you consume at breakfast are the most likely to be burned (especially if your morning is active) and the least likely to put on extra pounds. Eating breakfast also helps to jump-start your metabolism after a night’s sleep. If you’re trying to lose weight, do not skimp on breakfast. Eat a well-balanced meal that includes protein and complex carbohydrates.
