is that a normal breakfast then because that sounds like a lot to me, not a light meal.
Yep, I'd say that's the kind of breakfast that would mean you're not snacking mid morning.
Agreed. I'd usually recommend shoving down a healthy but filling breakfast in order to keep you full. It kickstarts the metablism (hence why if you have a smaller breakfast, you'll feel hungry mid-morning) for the day, whereas not having breakfast will effectively keep your body fasting - slowe metab, and you're more likely to want to snack then.
Though as of the past two days, back in my old ways
I just stick with the everything in moderation theme and it does me just fine. I eat three meals a day with the odd snack inbetween. I do eat the odd bit of junk food but to be fair i'm always on the go as have horses and a dog so i guess i burn things quicker than others.
Yesterday I tried to have a smaller portioned dinner of chicken salad and 2 croquettes but I was unsatisfied and hungry for the rest of the night
So I think the only thing for me is more exercise.
This one in particular I highly recommend - http://www.play.com/DVD/DVD/4-/509701/Ministry-Of-Sound-Pump-It-Up-The-Ultimate-Dance-Workout/Product.html
Fitness dvd's are a great route to weight loss if you don't want to be going the gym - I'd recommend you try to build up a collection however; you will tire of a dvd fast if you haven't got a number of others to alternate with.
I know on my sky I have a channel that has yoga on but nothing really yo get your heart pumping.
However that's about 2 - 3 hours later, at which point I've been driving and working and I then over-eat to compensate for feeling completely wasted.
That then has a knock-on effect throughout the day.
I have to say, that eating breakfast in the morning is much better than going without. Im also up at about 5:00 so i get the whole thing of having to wake up earlier, but by the time I get into work at 8:00am, Im ready and alert and I last through the day better. I usually have a bowl of fruit n fibre.
This week though, I have gone without breakfast and yesterday I felt sick and tired.
