Did you know that Chocolate cake breakfast could help you lose weight?

Enough not said but hey! This article coined from the telegraph says it all.
And here is the Read:
Eating chocolate cake as part of a full breakfast can help you lose weight, say scientists.
It sounds too good to be true but new research says having dessert - along with the traditional fry up - burns off the pounds.
Morning is the best time to consume sweets because that's when the body's metabolism is most active - and we have the rest of the day to work off the calories, a new study shows.
Eating cookies or chocolate as part of breakfast that includes proteins and carbs also helps stem the craving for sweets later.
Researchers split 193 clinically obese, non-diabetic adults into two groups who consumed either a low-carb diet that included a 300-calorie breakfast or a balanced 600-calorie breakfast that included a chocolate cake dessert.
Halfway through the 32-week study both groups had lost an average of 33 lbs per person. But in the second half of the study the low-carb group regained an average of 22 lbs per person - while the dessert gorgers lost another 15 lbs each.
A meal in the morning provides energy for the day's tasks, aids in brain functioning and kick-starts the body's metabolism, making it crucial for weight loss and maintenance.
And breakfast is the meal that most successfully regulates ghrelin, the hormone that increases hunger, said Prof Jakubowicz.
• Two bars of chocolate a day 'lowers risk of stroke and heart disease'
While the level of ghrelin rises before every meal, it is suppressed most effectively at breakfast time.
Basing their study on this fact, the researchers hoped to determine whether meal time and composition impacted weight loss in the short and long term, said Prof Jakubowicz, or if it was a simple matter of calorie count.
She said one of the biggest challenges that people face is keeping weight off in the long-term. Ingesting a higher proportion of our daily calories at breakfast makes sense.

Personally, i really don't like chocolate hence the cake but after this read, there is no way I am not making chocolate cake today.
Would make the most nicest moistest chocolate cake that will leave you lusting for it.
