The Best Breakfast to Eat for Weight Loss. There’s a new reason to eat breakfast—and to make it a big one.
Eating half your daily calories in the morning might help you lose weight more efficiently, according to new Israeli research published in the journal Obesity. For the 12-week study, 74 women ate 1,400-calorie daily diets containing identical amounts of protein, carbohydrates, and fat. One group ate 700 calories—including a chocolate bar—at breakfast, 500 calories at lunch, and 200 calories at dinner. The other group ate 200 calories at breakfast, 500 calories at lunch, and 700 calories at dinner. By the end of the study, the large-breakfast group had lost two and a half times more weight and 4.6 more inches from their waists than the women who ate their largest meals in the evening. But that doesn’t mean that starting your day with a 700-calorie Cronut will automatically help you lose weight.
