So you need to eat to lose weight?

Crash diets blunt your metabolism. But eating regular, balanced meals can help maintain your metabolism while you lose weight. And, the earlier you eat, the sooner you can kick-start your metabolism—so make it a point to eat breakfast every morning. Breakfast's reputation as the most important meal of the day holds true when your breakfast is a balanced meal. Eating breakfast can also help ward off midmorning hunger, which helps you stay on track with your weight loss goals.
