Breakfast...

Phoebeg1723

I will have my opinion because it's based on things I learnt when studying and queries I raised to friends in that fitness profession, and tbh, I think they know what they're on about.

Omg! I have never said to anyone to do as I do have I?! In FACT I said if skipping breakfast works for you then great!
I ALSO said that TOAST makes me feel heavy.

I was looking for constructive ideas such as those given by melimomTARDIS and others in order to heavy filling, low cal breakfasts!

Because you lot can't accept that I have one opinion and you have another, you've decided to tattle on about something which has no relevance to the discussion! So just stop! There is no need!

The only reason I "tattle " on is because you insist on repeating a MYTH. Opinions are fine. Your method of eating is fine but don't go around spouting nonsense about slowing ones metabolism for skipping breakfast just because your PT friends believe it. Opinions are not fact.

And there is a need when there are newbies reading the forums trying to learn about health and fitness and things like this get repeated to nauseum.

Oatmeal, eggs, Greek yogurt, protein pancakes. Though, if just toast makes you feel heavy I cannot think of anything else that wouldn't have the same effects. I would think toast being a carb would be something that doesn't sit for too long before you're hungry again but again, everyone is different.

Actually, because I eat at the same times each day, I don't find I get hungry or crave anything other than at mealtimes, which is good I spose.

My opinion is based on knowledge from trained professionals and a lot of research into it myself in the past. So please just drop it. I'm sure if newbies are curious about it they will do their own research like you and I have.

You are welcome to your own opinion, but you're not welcome to your own facts. You'll find that this is a board that doesn't like to see misinformation shared.

It's not just about you, but about the hundreds of people reading this thread who might try to force themselves to eat breakfast when they don't need to because of your opinion that their metabolism slows down if they don't.

I know what you mean about toast making you feel heavy. For me I'm usually in a hurry so I make myself a shake. I can sip it at my desk at work and don't feel heavy.
So, either "green" which is spinach, berries, 1/2 an apple, protein and almond milk.
OR "citrus" which is 1/2 and orange, a carrot, some frozen mangos and strawberries, Greek yogurt and a little bit almond or coconut milk.

When I'm a bit more hungry or have time I'll pick from:
2. Eggs w/peppers and onions (or just plain) w/English muffin
3. Fridge Oats or
4. whatever I have on hand, yogurt, granola etc.

Hope this helps with ideas.

I give up. You lot are not worth me getting stressed and upset over. I accept that you have your opinions. I've never said to change your opinions. I also said, if skipping breakfast works for you then that's fine, now just leave me the hell alone.

I never said it was a study. I said it was an article.
Also, I'm well aware of how my body works and tbh That discussion you posted doesn't contain much evidence. I have a lot of friends who are pts and I considered it once as well. Eating regularly DOES maintain your metabolism. Fasting or going longer without food reduces it.

This was not what this post was about, I was just curious as to what breakfasts people have or suggest to change my diet up!!

The link contained a bunch of peered reviewed studies. Did you even read the post or the studies and linked articles?

EDT: obviously not based on the later responses.

I find your lack of faith in cottage cheese disturbing. Ha-ha! It's OK. There are plenty of other breakfast foods!

I've had brie and olives for breakfast before, but that tends to get expensive.

Phoebeg1723

Haha sorry
I love Brie but yes it is expensive and I normally end up eating the lot :0
