1. Break the fast. I bet most of us don't really know what breakfast means. How bout this, when we're sleeping, our body slows down its metabolic rate as a result of not eating for hours. By eating breakfast we wake up our metabolism and burn those calories we need to lose weight.
2. Eat more, weigh less. Some studies have shown that people who eat breakfast get to lose weight better and can keep it off. If we skip it we'll be hungry by lunchtime we can eat a lot! Researchers found out that eating cereal for breakfast helps lose weight.
3. Are you interested in doing better at work and school? Studies have shown that those who eat breakfast are more alert and do better on tests than people who skip it. Moreover, hungry child may become apathetic, disinterested, and irritable in doing difficult tasks. So, breakfast is the key. No doubt adults need breakfast as much as kids do.
4. Breakfast is your chance to eat the foods you may not eat the rest of the day. You can have whole-grain cereal and berries with non-fat milk - here is your fibre, folic acid and calcium in one easy-to-grab bowl. Low-carbers need to go very easy on grains, so opt for the highest-fibre brand you can find. However, why not indulge instead in the typical eggs and bacon breakfast most other eating plans frown upon?
5. Skipping breakfast makes you grouchy. Researchers concluded that if be eat breakfast, we'll have better moods. It actually gets you started on the right track for the day. If you start eating healthy breakfast, it will set you mood for lunch. You'll be able choose something reasonable for lunch.
6. Cancel the Danish or sugared doughnut. Do it first after you wake up! They'll cause a blood sugar dip a couple of hours later if you do it. It will make you crave for something more sugary.
7. Breakfast makes your machine run better. Get yourself on a schedule with a healthy breakfast, and you're ready to take on the world.
8. If you're a parent, set a good example. By skipping breakfast, your kids will think it's not important. Breakfast doesn't have to be a big affair, but don't wimp out... make it a habit, and your kids will be way ahead of the game too.
9. Don't eat dessert for breakfast. If you think a cereal bar with 30 grams of sugar is a breakfast item, then think again. Some cereal bars contain nearly as much sugar and fat as a regular chocolate bar.
10. One more word about labels... if it says "nutritious", it doesn't necessarily mean it's healthy. Cereal manafacturers are experts in marketing, using words that send a message of health, but unless you read the labels, eat at your own risk. Kids' cereals often have more sugar than sweets. Protect your kids from getting hooked on these cereals... they'll get used to all the sugar, and will want only pre-sweetened cereals.
Ooh, this is my first blog post. I'm so excited! I hope anyone who reads it woulnd't find it boring, and hopefully feel the contrary and find the information is very useful.
I was always interested in yoga. I did a few months of practicing yoga earlier during college. It was fun, especially when you do it with a couple of your mom's friends. It made you feel SUPERB! It was because you can do better than them. Then they will adore you because you can do anything with the movements (laugh laugh).
Anyways, several months ago when I was reading my lovely dailymail.co.uk, I found an interesting article about Cameron Alborzian. He is an ex-model turned yoga guru. Some sources said that he was featured in one of Madonna's video.
After reading that article I tried to search everything about him. Turns out you can ask him come to your house, of course to educate you to know the benefits of yoga. The price wouldn't be cheap though, since it can go up to £20,000 a week. Furthermore, I found a couple of his videos in youtube. There are some movements that I have had practiced several times back then, such as this 10 minutes yogic practice. You will find this a little bit difficult. But, with a lot of practice it will help you to get fit and maybe at some point help you to be slimmer, because it did happen to me. Remember, slimmer does not mean losing weight.
Isn't he wonderful (PS: look at those abs)? He's an Indian decent, that's why I guess he's realy into yoga. So I was thinking, why I hadn't ever in my life interested in Pencak Silat, for example, as one of Indonesian traditional martial arts, nor did I have interested in learning to make Jamu (Indonesian traditional medicine drink). Hmm what a pity I guess. That makes me think ...
