I was eating eggs for breakfast regularly and having a high protein/low carb seems to be something my body likes...However, I am all egged out now and think I will honestly be ill if I have to look at an egg anytime soon.

Never look back with regrets and think "what if" for that way madness lies. There are those that will envy you and try and undermine you. They are not worth your time.

I've found that my porridge recipe isn't ideal if training 1-2hrs later... well, it's not ideal compared to how I feel when I have my veggie/fruit smoothies; these boys are just an amazing start to the day and you do feel really awake and alive. I'm gonna add a blog post about them soon.Alex wrote:Personally I don't like to give my digestive system too much to do early in the day, especially if I'm training early as it can detract from the workout if your body is busy digesting food. Otherwise it's only an hour between breakfast and starting my daily food and I think this timing works well as things are "warmed up" so to speak.

I agree - smoothies are generally the way forward and I should do more of them. With Oats I'm ok with small amounts before training but find more than 1/3 cup can make me feel a little sickly.

I'm loving my fried egg, spinach and balsamic vinegar breakfasts. Eggs by themselves do get sickly day after day, but this really changes the taste and texture.

When I'm back in the UK on Boxing Day, after the charity swim in the Channel I plan to have bacon butties on proper toast with goddamn salted butter. Which I cannot get here for love nor money.
