Exercise alone is not enough for one to lose weight. I hear many complaints from patients that they’ve been playing badminton at least 1 hour on most days of the week and yet they havent lost weight. Why? Because after their game, it’s EATING time! And this is where calories accumulate more than the calories burned during the exercise. So in general: weight loss equates to cutting down of high dense calorie foods to lose weight then be more active to maintain that weight!
One important finding that can help us lose weight is to incorporate high fiber foods to our diet. This one study recently published in the September 2006 issue of the Journal of American Dietetic Association showed that incorporation of a high fiber cereal to the daily meal resulted in more weight loss than in the group who only cut down their calories.
The other advantage of adding cereals to the meal plan is that… while cutting out calories or certain foods can result in some nutrients being from the diet, the addition of high fiber cereal can avoid such loses.
The study involved comparing three weight-loss strategies: exercise only; exercise plus a reduced-calorie diet that emphasized whole-grain cereals; and exercise plus a low-cal diet that included no cereals.
Breakfast cereal with milk should not be bad after all because not only is it high in fiber but also you lose weight with it.
You therefore get the best of both worlds:
The benefits of High Fiber Diet and The benefits of Eating Breakfast!
