An Egg-cellent Weight-Loss Tip

Want a breakfast idea that will kick-start your metabolism and won't leave you searching for a snack before noon? Look no further than the simple omelet.

A 2008 study found that dieters who started their day with an egg-based breakfast lost 65 percent more weight than those who ate a calorie-equivalent bagel. Why? Eggs are packed with protein, which provides a stick-to-your-ribs, keeps-you-feeling-full-longer factor that breads simply can't match.

For variety, add a sprinkle of low-fat cheese and a handful of veggies (like spinach, mushrooms or zucchini) and enjoy a different spin on this morning favorite every day!
