GO AHEAD....EAT A BIG BREAKFAST




Hard to believe, but there could be a benefit to loading up your breakfast plate. Besides helping you eat less later in the day, a big breakfast might also help you lose weight. But you have to be smart about it.


Load Up to Slim Down? Okay, so you can’t completely overdo it at breakfast and hope to drop pounds. But when obese dieters ate a big 600-calorie breakfast of healthy protein and carbs (think scrambled eggs, diced turkey, whole-wheat toast, and a banana), they lost significantly more weight than dieters who ate only half that much. Why? Researchers speculate that eating a large balanced meal in the morning helps stymie carb cravings later in the day -- especially if you’re cutting carbs and calories in an effort to slim down.


A Better Breakfast: Here are some other ways to make your morning meal really count:

Put eggs back on the menu. Yep, they’re officially a health food again. I always knew it…

Never skip breakfast.

Follow these four simple breakfast rules for shedding pounds:

1. Do it daily. Your goal is to make it a daily, automatic habit. The reward?
You can kiss late-day low blood sugar and sugary snack cravings goodbye.

2. Do it sooner rather than later. For the best results, eat breakfast within an
hour or so of waking up -- even if you’re not hungry. Morning-time low blood
sugar produces a brain chemical designed to mask hunger pangs -- but can
cause sugar cravings later in the day.


3. Make it complex. We’re talking complex carbohydrates here (whole-grain
cereals, steel-cut oats, high-fiber fruits, etc.) The fiber keeps blood sugar on
an even keel and helps you feel full longer.


4. Power it with protein. Protein slows digestion, helps prevent spikes and
dips in blood sugar, and can even give you a dose of depression-fighting
tryptophan. DesMaisons recommends that you get a third of your daily
protein at breakfast.

The BEST breakfast? One containing oatmeal or another whole-grained cereal (either hot or cold), eggs, yogurt, whole-grained bread, peanut butter or fresh fruit.

AFFIRMATIONS FOR MORE POSITIVE RELATIONSHIPS


Have you ever wondered how you could improve your relationships with family and friends? There is a passive but effective way that you can use - changing yourself first and then the law of attraction will do the rest. It's called "AFFIRMATIONS".

These affirmations are really just common sense but they are the first to go when our minds put us on auto pilot and we lose are awareness. We’re not perfect but we can aspire to making our lives more peaceful by improving our relationships with friends, lovers, family …..and those people we meet for the first time by first changing the way we think. Try it…it works!

Say the following affirmations as many times a day as you like. You can stand in front of the mirror and sincerely recite them - or just keep them in your mind throughout the day:

I am grateful for all the opportunities to learn the lessons of love.
I treat all people I meet with kindness, respect, and understanding.
I give and it is given back to me with the same measure.
I extend love and the whole world responds to my love.
I am a positive influence in my world.

Speak good words, kind words, words of wisdom, words of encouragement like gentle rain upon a dormant field. Eventually, they will coax the seeds beneath the soil to life.
-Rabbi Tzvi Freeman
