| They say breakfast is the most important meal of the day... do you agree... what did you have today? Posted: 3/27/2006 6:13:37 PM | Yep,
Oatmeal with protien powder on some days, then I have to snack within 2 hours after that.
On some days Omellette with green onion, onion, red and green bell peppers, tomato and some feta cheese, then serve with 2 slices of toast with peanut butter and jam, 2 chicken sausages, with a glass of juice or tea. This will last me for 4 hours max. I find I can think straight and I am in an awesome mood with this meal.
I love to eat good food. It has been said most of your calories should be eaten before mid afternoon.
Bring it on.....

Posted: 3/27/2006 7:41:25 PM | I have oatmeal for breakfast everyday during the week (and not instant). I add strawberries, and blueberries to it. For those that think it's gross you do get use to it. I made oatmeal for the kids whenever they wanted it but no way was I eating it. Tried it and didn't like it ... and I outlasted mom when she said I had to eat it or go without. The sisters got oatmeal and I had something else.
On the weekends I usually make pancakes (from scratch), and Sunday mornings I just have tea and toast while I'm watching Coronation Street lol making myself sound pretty old here aren't I. Depends on when you started watching it ... for you guys who don't know Corrie Street - it's the longest running soap in history ... British and it's been on the air for 40 years. | |

I usually prefer Orange juice, coffee, toasted multigrain bagel with peanut butter, fresh fruit cut up with yogurt and sometimes hot oatmeal with wheat germ & cinnamon, very yummy.
I do occassionally make eggs and toast, but I find egg's are too high in cholestral for me.  | |
