Default Lose Weight From A Big Breakfast!

(Sorry if this seems "off-topic" of the usual stuff... But I think it's probably useful to a number of us, including "me"!)

A recent study compared (1) people on a very-low-carb diet (including during breakfast), with (2) others who had a big breakfast (with carbs and proteins), followed by a very-low-carb diet for the rest of the day...

In fact, the very-low-carb diet people ate fewer calories per day (1,085 calories a day), compared to the big-breakfast followed by low-carbs people (1,240 calories a day).

At 4 months, both groups lost similar amounts (an average of 28 pounds for the very-low-carb group, and an average of 23 pounds for the big breakfast group)...

But then, at 8 months, the results are completely different! After 8 months, the very-low-carb group had REGAINED an average of 18 pounds! While the big-breakfast group had LOST a further 16.5 pounds!

I think what's going on is that the very-low-carb diet probably slows down your metabolism, making it harder to lose weight, and which maybe contributes to the "see-saw" effect, making you want to eat more and regain weight. On the other hand, I suspect you don't have this problem with the big-breakfast diet. (But I'm not an expert in these things... )

Is this the "holy grail" of dieting! The FINAL solution to the "see-saw" effect that plagues all dieters?

Anyway, here's an article about it (Lose weight on the carb-packed "big breakfast" diet) for those who want more details... (And you can find plenty more articles if you search through http://news.google.com or http://news.yahoo.com )

Best wishes!

Dien
