Nothing is as important as morning breakfast to kick-start an energetic day, but it’s hard to choose the right foods when we talk about weight loss.

People often skip their breakfast to keep calories lower. However, skipping breakfast only leads you to eat more and whatever you look in first, even unhealthy, through the day.

It’s because our metabolism stays at its best in the mornings and it needs something to push-up ourselves after a long night sleep.

Breakfast provides that fuel to your body and boosts energy for a power-packed day while saving you from later cravings and a bunch of calories you take all day.

Starting a nutrition-packed day high in protein and fiber will not only keep you full for long but also increases metabolism, further resulting in weight loss.

So, make sure you eat healthy breakfast foods rather than totally avoiding it!
