A study published in the "Journal of Physiology" in 2010 found that working out without eating may increase fat burn. Researchers took 28 healthy adults and had them eat a diet with 50 percent more fat and 30 percent more calories than their normal diets. Some of the men abstained from exercise, while the others were instructed to exercise four times per week in the mornings. Some of the exercisers ate breakfast before exercising and others did not. At the end of the study, the participants skipping breakfast before exercise gained less weight and experienced improvements in insulin sensitivity than those who ate before exercising.

Exercising without eating first can lead to low blood glucose, which can interfere with your brain function. When you eat, glucose levels in your circulating blood rise and are available to travel to your muscle cells. Glucose is also available as glycogen stored in your muscles. When you work out before eating, glycogen and blood glucose can become quickly depleted, causing hypoglycemia. Because your brain runs exclusively on glucose, low levels may cause light-headedness, nausea, muscle fatigue and poor exercise performance. Regular ongoing training enhances your muscles' capacity to store glycogen.Timing and quantity of food can influence your exercise performance. For optimal exercise capacity follow these guidelines: If you eat a large meal, wait three to four hours before exercising. For a small meal, eat two to three hours pre-exercise. A snack is your best option, eaten an hour before exercise. Try consuming a piece of fruit, yogurt or granola before exercise to maximize blood glucose and calorie burn. Eating a snack combining protein and carbohydrates immediately after exercise will replenish muscle glycogen stores, setting you up for your next workout. Adequate hydration and replacement of electrolytes are also critical for peak exercise performance.

When you collect your thoughts, you can start with an approximate diet, for example, reduce the amount of sugary sweetness or products with a high glycemic index - these are the foods that cause the release of insulin in the blood and interfere with the digestive process. Then you can go to the physical exercises in the gym or for example running on the street or jogging around the stadium. All in your hands.
