Diet guru Haylie Pomroy wants you to get in shape with a metabolism-boosting breakfast. The nutritionist, who recently released her book Metabolism Revolution: Lose 14 Pounds in 14 Days and Keep It Off for Life on February 27, shared a recipe with Us Weekly for her dish Haylie’s Garden Hash.
To help speed your metabolism, says the pro, who has worked with Reese Witherspoon, chow down five times a day, avoid caffeine and “eat within 30 minutes of waking.” She shared one of her top a.m. recipes with Us, and it’s packed with the veggies she says balance hormone distribution and stimulates the release of stubborn fat. Pomroy says the thyme in this dish “promotes deep sleep,” a key to weight loss.
