What did you have for breakfast this morning? Coffee or nothing at all. If you are in the later group, think about this. Evidence shows that the simple act of eating breakfast -- every day -- is a big part of losing weight, and lots of weight. It makes sense: eating early in the day keeps us from "starvation eating" later on. But it also jump-starts your metabolism. If breakfast is the most important meal of the day, it's best to make wise food choices. That's where fruits, vegetables, and whole grains come into the picture. Because these are high-fiber foods, they fill you up - yet they bring less fat to the table.
