I don’t know about you, but I am a victim of chocolate cake and all things sweet. My sweet tooth pretty much makes a lot of bad decisions when it comes to preparing my meals throughout the day. So much to my surprise, an article comes along with the headline “Chocolate Cake Breakfast Could Help You Lose Weight!” Say what? 

In this article published by a UK online newspaper, The Telegraph, researchers conducted studies proving that weight loss can be achieved if you included sweets (chocolate cakes) with carbs and proteins as part of your breakfast. Apparently, you should eat sweets in the morning when your metabolism is higher and your body is in high calorie burn mode.

Now in my opinion, this article failed to disclaim the part about what to do to increase your metabolism. “The rate of your metabolism depends on the interaction between the number of calories you consume, the number of calories you burn while eating and exercising, and the calories you burn based on your individual genetic makeup” – Jenny Stamos Kovacs of WebMD. If you eat high caloric meals and do not move around, you will not lose weight. In fact you will most certainly gain a lot and fast. It’s important that you increase your activity level every day if you want to help your metabolism.

Well this is good news for me. Having cake in the morning is a definite incentive for me to exercise more. I think I’m going to stop blogging about this and cut a slice now…then start cleaning my house to help burn it off! What could this mean for you? You can enjoy your wedding cake leftovers first thing in the morning the next day! Here's to burning calories and eating cake while doing it!

What dessert would you consider having for breakfast?
