Rise and Shine


Got the evening munchies? It may be because you are not eating breakfast.
Research consistently shows the more food you eat earlier in the day the more quickly you will fill up at dinner … and you won’t be hungry in the evening. While you sleep, your body is still burning calories, so you eventually will get hungry. But since you are still sleeping, your body goes into “fasting” mode.

In the morning, break your fast by literally waking your stomach up. You do not need to eat immediately upon waking, but try to eat something small within an hour or two of getting up.

Follow breakfast with your largest meal of the day at lunch. Your metabolism peaks in the middle of the day, so take advantage with a nice lunch.
At night, have a reasonable dinner. Your metabolism and waistline will both thank you.
