I know what you’re thinking : pizza （比薩餅）?
For breakfast? But the truth is that you can have last night’s leftovers
in the a. m. if you want to.
I know lots of women who skip（跳過） breakfast , and they have a ton of
different excuses for doing it . Some say they don’t have time. others
think they’re “saving” calories （卡路里）, still others just don’t like breakfast food .
But the bottom line is that eating in the
morning is very important when you’re trying to lose weight.
“Eating just about
anything from 300 to 400 calories would be better than nothing at all,” says Katherine
Brooking , R , D , who developed the super-easy eating plan for this year’s “SELF CHALLENGE”. And even pizza can
be healthy if it’s loaded with vegetables, and you stick to one small
piece.
Breakfast is one meal I never miss, and the
same goes for most weight loss success stories. Research shows that eating
breakfast keeps you from overeating later in the day. Researchers at the
University of Southern California found that breakfast skippers have a bigger
chance of gaining weight than those who regularly have a morning meal.
So eat something in the morning, anything. I
know plenty of friends who end up having no breakfast altogether, and have just
coffee or orange juice. I say, try heating up last night’s leftovers-it may
sound crazy, but if it works for you, do it! I find if I tell myself, “You can always eat
it tomorrow,” I put away the leftovers instead of eating more that night. Try it…you may save
yourself some pre-bedtime calories. And watch your body gain the fat-burning
effects.
