An English muffin is nothing like a crumpet. I'm English and live in the US and I miss crumpets. I've been here 6 years, they sell Breakfast Muffins in Sainsburys and they are what we call English muffins over here.0

No working out today, just sitting at my desk. I try and snack every couple of hours, so I avoid the whole starvation thing. That's the plan anyway, I may switch dinner for leftover grilled chicken with rice, or I might have that for lunch tomorrow.0 -
wanted to share my breakfast creation, I was pretty proud of myself. I scrambled two eggs with a cup of diced ham and divided the portion into 4 servings, and put one on a lenders bagel spread with laughing cow garlic herb.
so that's one lenders onion bagel-200 cals
cheese-35 cals
half an egg-51 cals
1/4 diced ham-30 calswhich would be 316 calories, but I didn't even use all the cheese or a full cup of ham, seemed a little much. It doesn't contain any fruits or vegetables so I will have to incorporate those eventually today. And I have breakfast ready for the next three days!0 -

I eat huge breakfast, fruits & snacks before 3PM and last meal ~ 5 PM. Going to bed ~ 10 PM and up 6AM.
When i do workouts in mornings, midway i have 1 Alpro soya yougurt - it keeps me going and i dont need to eat soon after workout. I dont eat products with lactose, cut out most wheat products (there are still couple slices a week) and couple patatoes a week. No dips, no oil in salads, just some olive oil when frying.
Usual breakfast is salads of - cherry tomatoes, cucumber, sprouts, leaves (lettuce, rocket, sourel, beetroot etc), greens (chives, dill, parsley) with tuna in brine/smoked macrel/smoked salmon etc. Last month is very "fishy" - hadnt have so much fish in 2 yrs Season with toasted sesam seeds and plum souce (something salty from chinese shop).
Instead of bread i eat rice, corn and other flour crackers/cakes. My kids love them with chocolate spread too
Lunch for us is kinda late and mixed with dinner - cause everyone else has their tea, when i have my salads ("sharing is caring" and here goes half of my bowl). Mostly stew, roast, grill with vegies.
After that i would have 2 snacks - some fruits (like one pomelo/mango/fruit salad with nuts), alpro soya desserts (caramel, dark chocolate my favorites). Peanutbutter crackers.
Today i had
B - soya yogurt
L - beef stew with sweet patatoe, parsnips, swede, patatoe
S - mango
D - chicken sandwidge (made by husband) - white bread, majo, grilled chicken
S - soya dark chocolate dessert
p.s. edited to add, that mostly my breakfast would be 3 eggs, fried liver etc, what ever DH fancies to serve me in bed0 -
Maybe you could try to omit the sugary carb foods and put more vegetables and protein into your diet. protein will curb your appetite much longer than carbs can. Good Luck and keep it up!!!0
