APAD: Breakfast Like a King, Lunch Like a Prince, Dinner...

Breakfast Like a King, Lunch Like a Prince, Dinner Like a Pauper

The proverb “Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince, and dinner like a pauper” evidently has another variant: “Eat breakfast yourself, share lunch with a friend, and give dinner away to your enemy.” I wouldn’t go that far, but there does appear to be a metabolic benefit to frontloading the bulk of your calories earlier in the day.

What was the caloric distribution of the king-prince-pauper group getting 700 calories at breakfast, 500 at lunch, and 200 at dinner? They got 50 percent of calories at breakfast, 36 percent at lunch, and only 14 percent of calories at dinner, which is pretty skewed. What about 20 percent for dinner instead? A 50% – 30% – 20% spread, compared to 20% – 30% – 50%?

Again, the bigger breakfast group experienced “dramatically increased” weight loss, a difference of about nine pounds in eight weeks with no significant difference in overall caloric intake or physical activity between the groups,

didn't know it b4,but we haveBeen in 2.5 meals mode 4 years.

I found it very hard to eat like a pauper in the evening :-(

I used to fast until supper. One meal a day.

hey, practice, practice! ;-) & U'll get used to it. ;-)

could U reverse it: fasting after a BIG breakfast? ;-)))

1400 calories a day？No matter whether KPP or PPK，he will

lose wt for sure～

On Friday I met a resident who used to be my intern，I was

barely able to recognize her！She lost 30lbs since this year！

She said her new year resolution this year was to lose weight. Since Jan/01，she started to have 2 meals a day and to do exercise 1-2hrs a day. She has been losing wt 1-2lbs a week.

Now， even when she went to pick her mom in the airport， her mom said，“Is that you？”

Yes，nobody is able to recognize her！ The only thing unchanged is her voice！

To be honest， I don't think it is healthy at all～ 

Here is my breakfast today. How many calories？Is it healthy？

Not really. I can't stomach that (pun intended).

The study might be bankrolled by a breakfast joint.

hahaha, but isn't break-fast theMost ImportantMeal ofTheDay?

I've skipped it for at least 10 years& never felt better :))

香肠换成酱豆腐或臭豆腐就好了: healthy as hell :-)
