Losing weight comes down to the right diet and exercise plan, but a few everyday alterations can help speed up the process and shorten the path to weight loss. Here’s what a healthy and wise morning routine looks like.
1Chocolate Chips
Joy to the world, for studies have suggested that having 1.6 ounces of high-quality dark chocolate a day can help reduce your BMI by one whole point (approximately 5-7 pounds). The cocoa-filled chocolate has a compound called epicatechin, which burns calories and improves muscle function.
2Eat Two Eggs
A morning meal that is high in protein will keep you feeling full, well until lunch time. While eggs for breakfast will load you up on nutrients and curb your cravings, stick to eating just two; over-indulging could increase your cholesterol, especially if you lead a sedentary lifestyle.
3Lemon Water
One lemon in 6 ounces of warm water is the perfect morning elixir. It reduces food cravings, increases body heat, breaks fat down and helps the digestion and detoxification processes in our system.
4Stretch
Flexing and relaxing your muscles stimulates body heat, accelerates blood circulation and takes your body from slumber mode to cruise control for the rest of the day. Energize your body in the morning with these stretches.
5Light Therapy
Basking in the morning glory of the sun can lower your BMI. It is most effective before 8 am, and 20 minutes of sunshine is all you need to synchronize your internal clock, get on the ideal sleeping schedule and regulate your energy balance.
