How do you start your day?

[Pellethead]

I'm curious to hear opinions regarding diet fuel for the start of your day. I typically have a hard time without "something" to eat. I prefer 5-6 egg whites (1 yolk) with hot sauce, cracked pepper and a glass of "green goodness" juice. A half hour later, steel cut oatmeal and coffee. This is my "perfect" set up for a good day. I have a friend that swears by eating nothing until noon and he trains daily. He drinks shakes for a couple meals and is ripped to shreds. Personally, I feel depleted if I run that route. What do y'all do?

I do realize there is another thread about what people are having for breakfast, but I am looking for opinions on what others view as "correct". My thoughts are basically that without the proper fuel, you will burn muscle.

For me I do oatmeal every now and then with a banana.
I generally have 2 cups of coffee prior to any food intake.


But I almost always have 7 ounce extra lean ground beef, vegetables, and sometimes white rice.

I think breakfast is one of the most important and should not be skippiedd. Ripped or not, I feel that way odf eating is hard to maintain on a longterm basis.

Sounds like you have a good regimen going in the morning. We should all eat within an hout upon waking. I used to do eggs to but I just got sick of them. So what I did is created a shake and now I can drink my beakfast and do other things at the same time. It is filling for sure. This is what I put in it:

1 cup Vanilla almond Milk
1/2 cup frozen blueberries
1/2 cup gluten free slow oats
1 scoop of whey protein powder
1/2 avocado ( makes the drink thicker and smooth and takes care of my good fats in the morning)
1 tablspoon organic fiber

I also make this for Fuzo but add a bit more stuff including 1 whole banana

YUMMY!

I agree with baby1

Re: How do you start your day?

Well I wake up at 0430, cry in the fetal position for 10mins as I'm still walking dead, get to work and push soldiers to progress during physical training then eat breakfast. If I make a shake or any noise I will sale up my sleeping beauty and well, she isn't so sweet at 4 in the morning. Try being 230lbs and creeping around the house. Lololololol.

buwahahahahhahahah she got you bro!! You better walk on your toes then

Re: How do you start your day?

Great input! I'm starting to think that the whole internal process of actually waking up and digesting food may lead me in the direction of a shake for breakfast when alternating from egg whites. I figure the actual energy it takes to break down a shake vs. solid food has to be less giving more energy back. I'm back to two-a days for training with some cardio and bag work in the am and gym time later. My schedules a mess right now and like most ppl here, training has to have priority-right along with diet. Thanks again for the input

Re: How do you start your day?

.

My priority in the morning is always the same - finding a pulse, or some other signs of life, so I have breakfast with a friend. Mr. Coffee.

After that its english muffins, marmalade and a shake.
