Celebrites and the big breakfast diet

Many celebrities talk about a big breakfast diet as being one of the ways that they maintain their svelte bodies.

Most of us will have been told at one time or another to eat a big breakfast to set us up for the rest of the day. New research adds weight to this advice.

Some of the world's hottest celebs have often hinted in interviews that their slim figures may in part be due to a big breakfast eating plan.

Angelina Jolie for example, has often said that eating a large breakfast plays a huge part in helping her maintain her figure. Jolie admits that she "...used to not eat breakfast, but have a cigarette and a coffee...", but now insists her whole family eats a healthy and substantial breakfast.

Later in the day her meals are much smaller, sometimes culminating in a sugar free breakfast cereal for dinner (truly a 'reverse diet')!

At its most basic level the diet is:

1)a big breakfast.

2) a smaller lunch.

3) an even smaller dinner.

If you are looking to emulate such a diet the the Reverse Diet by Tricia Cunningham and Heidi Skolnik is an excellent choice, full of practical advice such as eating plans. The book is given credence given that Cuningham used such a plan to lose a life-changing 170 pounds. There's more information on this book here.
