400 calories for breakfast?
I've heard through a few people that your breakfast should be around 400 calories. Is this true or just a myth? My breakfasts are usually between 150to 300 calories and this keeps me full until 2 which is when I usually get a snack before lunch. Anyone know if not having 400 calories for breakfast can stop weight loss?

Glutamine
My coworker was getting ready to hit the gym and looks at me while preping her preworkout stuff and asks "do you take glutamine?" Apparently its supposed to stop the stiff and soreness that is in your muscles after you've had a workout. Now here is my question for you all, would you recomend taking it? Is there a point to…
