Rolls of fat ... A jelly belly ... Wobbly Thighs Some people skip breakfast thinking they will lose weight quicker that way. What they don't realise is that breakfast kicks off your body's metabolism. In case, you don't already know this, you don't put on weight just because your body is loaded with calories or you eat too much. You put on weight when your body's metabolism starts to slack off a little. Your metabolism will start to slack off especially when you start skipping breakfast! Breakfast will also give you a boost of energy, and help you be more optimistic throughout the day. Which means that you probably won't get cranky around lunch time. One research suggests that by late morning those who eat breakfast perform both physical and mental tasks more efficiently, and show faster reaction times, than those who skip breakfast. Hmm... so, breakfast is not only good for your waistline, it also boosts your mental powers! Your body needs food as its fuel supply for energy. That supply ceases during the night. That's why you need to replenish it or otherwise it will be running on an empty tank. Maybe, that's just another reason not to skip breakfast. Stop counting calories - start making smart eating choices. Of course, if you want to drop those pounds, you need to watch what you eat. That doesn't mean you can't enjoy what you eat. You simply need to start making better eating choices. Don't worry it's easier than you think. Here are 5 healthy tips to get you started: Healthy Tip #1: Make food fun. Don't stick to the same kind of food you always have for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. That's boring! How about making healthy eating more exciting for you? A good diet is a varied and an interesting one. It doesn't need to be expensive or time-consuming to prepare. The Alkaline Cookbook will help you to prepare healthy, lip-smacking meals that you will enjoy! Healthy Tip #2: Don't be afraid to snack often. Snacks are a great way to curb your appetite and keep your energy levels high in between meals. Keep in mind that lollies and biscuits have ZERO nutritional value. But, they are loaded with fat and sugar! Not the best choice if you want to turn those love handles into the sexiest curves around. If you're feeling hungry, nibble on some nuts, fruit, or a veggie salad. If your body constantly craves sweets and chocolate, it may mean that you need to change your diet. Healthy Tip #3: Avoid eating food when you're under stress. This is important. Stress can lead to indigestion or heartburn. Stress can come from you rushing because you don't want to be late for work, or for an appointment. Perhaps you just had an argument with your partner or kids and you're a little hot under the collar. If that's the case, wait until your blood pressure drops a little. Remember it's not only what you eat but also HOW you eat. So, stress less, especially before your meals. Healthy Tip #4: Cut down on fat. Saturated animal fat clogs up your arteries and pollutes your system. It also plagues your body with bad cholesterol. For health reasons, you should eat less meat - especially red meat. But, if you have to have your meat, choose the leanest type you can afford. Instead of frying food, try grilling, boiling, steaming and baking. Here's a little test to help you determine the effect your food has on your body - inside. If you have a dishwasher, don't use it tonight. Simply hand-wash your plate or bowl right after dinner or lunch without (this is critical) using any dishwashing liquid. If your dishes are all smothered in fat and hard to clean, what do you think happens to your liver and arteries? Good thought. Healthy Tip #5: Go natural. It's not always possible to eat fresh organic food. It can be too expensive or not always available in your area. So, what can you do? Try eating brown rice and wholemeal bread instead of refined white products. Enjoy plenty of whole grains, fruits and vegetables. Before you eat something, ask yourself: Will this really nourish my body and mind, or will it just make me feel better? Keep in mind that the majority of processed and packaged foods are usually loaded with salt, sugar, or artificial sweeteners - all acidifying! Imagine if you could eat anything you wanted, without feeling guilty. And without putting on weight like crazy the next day! Hard to believe?
