Eat Breakfast and burn more fat!

Here's a study that was just released last month:

The study compared three groups that consumed IDENTICAL total calories.
No breakfast
Breakfast occasionally
Breakfast every day

The researchers concluded that "breakfast omission was associated with increased levels of intra-abdominal fat independent of daily energy intake. Eating breakfast is associated with lower body fat levels.

Another study was presented at The Endocrine Society's 90th Annual Meeting in San Francisco (June 2008) by Jakubowicz MD et al

This consisted of two groups that consumed similar total calories (very low - 1200 and 1100). Both were low carb diets (group one had 17g of carbs per day and group two had 97g of carbs per day - still considered low carb).

The primary difference being that group one consumed a 300 cal breakfast, and group two consumed a 600 cal breakfast.

After 4 months on each plan there was no significant difference between the groups.

However, after 8 months:
Group one: 300 cal breakfast - had lost ten pounds
Group two: 600 cal breakfast had lost THIRTY-NINE pounds

Conclusion of both studies is that eating breakfast, and perhaps a bigger breakfast than usual (therefore eating slightly less calories the rest of the day) could be a useful real world tool for fat loss.
