Hello there. I was just wondering how people started thier day off with breakfast??
I tend to have about 4 apples and a banana each morning (as i think its healthy!!) but im getting really bored of it! Also i have to get up pretty early if im to cycle the 20 miles or so to work, so sometimes eating apples on the go is a bit of a pain...
I dont think im getting enough energy eating these, but i've been reading alot about GI rating recently and dont want to be going for super high energy foods early in the morning.
WHats everyones experience?
Thanks,
Johnny

At the risk of dredging up an old thread, and some old nightmares.... try here: http://forum.220magazine.com/tm.asp?m=13761
But when it's not Sunday, it's porridge....
Porridge..its a way of life.
As you know, porridge is the only food that should be allowed at breakfast time, I will admit that the addition of dried fruit has its place and isnt a slur on a chaps sexuality. I have even taken to preparing mine in a microwave (Oh the shame!!)
On a serious note though (and that doesn't happen often!) 4 apples for brekkie aint good. As I understand things, if you're wolfing down fruit, you probably want darker coloured ones like berries and plums. Apples are down the list cos of their white flesh. Better than coco-pops though!
Get porridge down yer neck - you know it makes sense.
Porridge!
(Oh and a couple of slices of granary toast, fruit smoothie and a cup of tea)
oh alright I have porridge as well. Usually start with a banana before morning workout followed with porridge and a scoop of Maximuscle Promax chocolate. Just remember to wash the bowl out straight afterwards..... can stick bricks together with that stuff![:D]
Sun - Fri Porridge (+ 2 slices of brown toast & peanut butter, only after long bike / run night before)
Sat (The best day) -- Bacon, Sausage, Egg, Toast, Black Pudding (for the iron [;)] ) and baked beans (must be the 57 varieties type)
Since this is a food thread ..... What do you eat after a late training session ? ..... I cannot get into my pool until 8pm therefore not home until 9:30pm and I neeeeeeed fooooood since I cannot eat very much before training.
Happy Training

The good thing about that is that most supermarkets are doing a "2 for £3" deal on kellogs, on the back of the box you will find a swim for free voucher.
So, for £3 you get 2 boxes of cereal and 2 swims - what a chuffin bargain!!
