What do you eat for breakfast to kickstart your day?

[KrazieLOL]

Well, I've been skimming through BB forums alot for achievements and tips n tricks. I decided to join to ask some questions I cant really find or answers that did not help me enough.

Anyways, my question is: What do you eat for breakfast to 'kickstart' your day or to just kick start yourself?

I had always awoken to a toast, hard boiled eggs, and green tea(I sometimes add no cal. sweeteners to help wake myself up). But almost-if not all, the time I am just too tired to do anything. I had switched out my green tee to coffee a couple times, and it sort of helped, but I am adding a bit tooo much sugar. I was recently told to try sugarfree energy drinks, like redbull or monster, but they kinda eat my wallet away. Has anyone tried this?

I am not a good breakfast guy, as throughout all my life, I was never a breakfast eater when I wake up. I would hop in the shower and skip on to school. I had always went straight to lunch, even when I wake up in the morning on non school days (about 10AM-11AM)

My workout times..
School days: an hour or two when I get out(or after work)
NonSchool days: After work-if no work on that day, than usually before or after lunch, depending on how big the meal was.

Now I would like to start working out and/or have breakfast at around the 6-6:30 mark

Many thanks,
Krazie

I typically have a large glass of water first thing in the morning and then train in an overnight fasted state. Since I don't typically enjoy eating in the morning, my first meal of the day is usually lunch, which is consumed about 6 hours after waking.

if you don't like to eat breakfast first thing in the morning, don't eat it when you first get up. Like wonderpug I do 99% of my training fasted. For example i celebrated 2012 by running 12 miles this morning completely fasted, and still did not eat for about an hour afterwards (eating right after I run makes me feel like I am going to bring it back up)

find out what works for you, and don't stress about what time you eat. Sometimes I will lift first thing in the morning and still not eat for 6+ hours afterwards, and I have been making excellent progress!

but if you want an easy breakfast just mix some cc/gy with a scoop of protein powder, pb, and some cereal! tasty, and takes like a minute to prepare and it travels well too!

I'm usually not hungry in the mornings so I don't eat breakfast. If I do wake up hungry I'll grab an egg mcmuffin on the way to work.

2 eggs sunnyside up

I like to dip toast in the yolk. Then I use the other 2 pieces of toast and the bacon to make a breakfast sandwhich. mmmm.

[usawinston]

Water, Coffee, and Xtend.

Between 1130 and 1300 comes Lunch which is varied every day. Lunch usually contains 50-100g of protein, mostly from meats and cheeses. Whole cooked veggies as well.

[nowisnotthetime]

Coffee and sometimes these sausage biscuits that I buy in the frozen foods section at the supermarket.

knew this is the first thing i would see lol

[TigerStealth]

meal 1 for me is always oats + whey + fruit. Meal 1 is also my pre workout meal so it is usually 80g of carb, 40g pro, about 5g fat

[KrazieLOL]

thanks for the fast replys everyone. I might try and go after boxes of oatmeal or something I can mix protein in
