in Food and Nutrition
I work out in the mornings and try to get 1/2 to 1 english muffin in with some peanut butter to get a kick on protein. After I'm finished, a small portion of cheese or a but of canned tuna with spices added or maybe a bananna gives me my boost to make it to lunch! Of course there is about three bottles of water before, during and after my workout.

Days that I don't work out right away, I try to get some nutrients in there right away otherwise I find I don't eat the right way all day! I usually am continuously hungry and binge!

    I try to fill up on protein rather than a carb: egg whites with 2-3 slices of bacon. After a workout a protein shake with a shot of espresso, maybe a fruit.

    My breakfasts during the week are chobani (whatever flavor I have) and sometimes I add granola cereal into it for some crunch, or I have an english muffin with TJ peanut butter and some fresh jam or a banana. On the weekends I like to make bacon and eggs or omlets.

    I either have a bowl of farina made with skim, almond, or soy milk and splenda or a bowl of kids cereal like lucky charms or froot loops with skim, almond, or soy milk. I work out in the afternoons so I usually get in some lunch before then... my lunch is just another breakfast though. I usually have two scrambled eggs and two slices of toast!

    I don't usually get enough time in the mornings to cook myself an egg-white omelet packed with veggies, which is what I would like to have, so I make a piece of multigrain toast with Laughing Cow light spreadable cheese, and layer slices of tomatoes, cucumbers, sprouts, etc...make an open faced sandwich! It's not too high in calories, and it's got great nutrients etc!

    On mornings I don't workout I usually do one of three things:
    -Cut half a banana up into pieces and eat it in AllBran with Silk rather than milk. Then save the other half of the banana for a mid-morning snack with a little bit of peanutbutter. -MyFavorite-
    -Sometimes I will have a glass of orange juice first thing in the morning and then snack on a celery, carrots and cucumbers mix until about 10. I always seem to have a problem getting my veggies in and this way I can be sure to get them in. You will be supprised at how little you will be hungry for by lunch time.
    -On the weekends I make a box of the FiberOne muffins and one morning I will eat one of those with a peach and a glass of Silk. It satisfies the sweet craving early on so that way its out of your system by the end of the day.

    Eggs, sardine, avocado. Lots of protein and fat -- no sugar. It helps to start me off without the cravings.

    I avoid lots of carby and especially bread-like things because they dont keep me full, the exception is oatmeal, which I eat plain, or with splenda and nuts.
    My go-to breakfast is Fage 0 or 2% with blueberries, ground cinnamon and ground flax. Keeps me the fullest the longest
    or eggs/whites with veggies and a little cheese on a sandwich thin
    or Pacific almond milk with designer whey protein.

    I have a very light breakfast because I workout at night and sit at a desk all day. It's almost always a glass of chocolate soy milk. Sometimes I'll have a snack before lunch, usually either a can of V8, handful of almonds, or piece of fruit. On the weekends I workout in the morning so I often have oats or a whole grain waffle w pb and maple syrup.
