I have never been a big breakfast eater or really feel motivated to eat in the morning.\u00a0 I usually never felt hungry and would feel full and heavy when I ate in the morning.\u00a0 I didn’t know this was abnormal.<\/p>\n

A month into my gym membership the owner, Frankie Cole, sat down with me to talk nutrition.\u00a0 He knew my fitness and health goals and wanted to give any advice about my eating habits.\u00a0 I had recorded what I ate for two weeks and then we looked at it together.\u00a0 One of his first questions was: Are you hungry when you wake up in the morning? I said, “No.\u00a0 Who is?” without missing a beat.\u00a0 He apparently is hungry every morning the minute he wakes up. Here’s how he explained it:<\/p>\n

Any calories you eat at the end of the day when you are done with your usual activity (may it be daily work or a late night work out) you are not going to burn many calories.\u00a0 You do not burn calories while you sleep. Therefore, if you eat a huge meal at the end of the day and dessert, you’re body doesn’t burn those calories and they just sit there.\u00a0 Through the night, your body then considers them ‘left over’ calories and stores them.\u00a0 If you eat a light meal for dinner and cut off your eating at a certain time, you’ll wake up hungry the next day.<\/p>\n

This took me a long time to figure out and agree with.\u00a0 I decided to cut my eating off at 8:30 since I’m usually in bed at 10:00 or so.\u00a0 After a few days, I would wake up hungry in the morning.\u00a0 My morning meal then helped to fuel me for the morning instead of making me feel heavy.\u00a0 Turns out Frankie was right.\u00a0 I now wake up hungry or get hungry within the first 30 minutes of waking up.\u00a0 It helps me get started and on track for the day.\u00a0 Some mornings I’ve even planned what I’m going to eat that day before my feet hit the floor.\u00a0 It gets me focused on my choices right away.<\/p>\n

Are you waking up hungry? Are you wanting to eat breakfast? If not, then look at how you are eating at night.\u00a0 This will definitely help with weight loss!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
