If I currently don’t eat breakfast, but start, will I lose weight?

Friday, December 4th, 2009

I’m trying to lose those last 5-10 pounds. I am starting to drink weight loss/ nutrition shakes as breakfast. I know that I will be consuming more calories than normal by adding breakfast, but many weight loss tips say to add breakfast because it speeds up your metabolism. Also, on days that I eat breakfast, I feel more hungry than days that I skip. Can you give me any insight? Should I be drinking weight loss shakes (such as Slim Fast or the Equate drinks) or Ensure? Thank you!

the reason for feeling hungry more after eating your breakfast could be one of two reasons. Firstly you could be working off the breakfast and therefore your body requires more fuel, or secondly. you have eaten a sugary breakfast which gave you and energy boost for a while which has ended and the body now craves more to keep you going. Try and eat a more balanced breakfast such as all-bran or bran flakes, shreddies, weetabix etc. Something that will keep you going till lunch, as they release energy slower. However slim fast shakes for breakfast are ok as long as you stick to the regime it is meant for. Good luck but dont over do it.

How do I get past a certain weight?

Tuesday, December 1st, 2009

I’m looking for a weight loss, nutrition or trainer to answer this. Also, despite the name on this account, I am in fact a woman. I’ve lost nearly 60 pounds and I’m proud of myself. But I am stuck at 150 and the scale will not budge. I’ve been at it for months. I’ve tried everything including cutting way back on calories. 150 is not an unhealthy weight for me, but I want to be thinner and in better shape than that. How can I get past this hump?

Take all of your meals and cut them in half. Save the other half of the meal for a couple of hours and eat it then. By eating more meals and less at each one you keep your metabolism up. Also, run at least two miles a day and do not eat anything one hour before bed.
