How to lose weight with high-protein breakfast foods?

Get up and eat a high-protein vegetarian breakfast!

Research suggests 30+ grams of protein at breakfast will make you less hungry throughout the day. This is because there are favorable changes in the hormones and brain signals that control appetite.

The problem is, many of us skip breakfast because of our busy schedules. While others feel like it’s an easy meal to skip in effort to cut down on total calories for the day.

Counterintuitively, skipping breakfast is strongly correlated with weight gain.

University of Missouri Study

As a vegetarian bodybuilder, eating protein all day is a requisite to build the physique we desire. However, eating 30-40 grams of protein (give or take) is particularly important at breakfast.

A study conducted at the University of Missouri’s Department of Nutrition and Exercise Physiology, found that overweight teens who ate high-protein breakfast foods within 30 minutes of waking felt fuller longer.

They were also less hungry throughout the day compared to when they ate a low-protein breakfast or skipped the morning meal altogether. Eating high-protein breakfast foods also seem to reduce desire to snack among the participants.

There’s also overwhelming anecdotal evidence that suggests a protein-rich breakfast will help you lose weight, build muscle, and leave you more energized.
