Get up earlier and eat something then

Haha, yeah. I would if i could, i'm quite often late for work as it is. Might grab some of the protein bars and some apples or bananas and take them work with me. I guess i could always eat them there.

People who don't eat a good breakfast make me sad

 

[Delvis]

I can't not eat breakfast....its just weird.

Krisboats, you will need to adjust your diet eventually, you will make gains for so long, then hit a wall. Simply put, you will need more food

Your breakfast before was far from good though

It gave me the calories I need at the time for as cheap as I could get really...Just a lot of fat

I used to have oats every morning, but found I was eating way to many carbs....Going by the new diet im eating a lot of carbs now But I trust you sweetie <3

 

[Steedie]

Good carbs though <3 not milk, tortilla wraps and other poo

This is what I have for a quick high calorie brekkie if you want ideas

1 cup oats
2 scoops whey
1 scoop flax
1 tbsp peanut butter
2 tbsp olive oil
cinnamon
300ml water

blend into shake. I drink that with a couple of fish oil caps and eat a banana. IIRC it's 800-900 kcals.

You could get a lot of it ready the night before and then just mix in the morning. Takes 2 mins to make and 2 mins to drink.

Aye

Tortilla wraps (Wholegrain ones) was better than bread mind

You picked up on that too eh?

Poor Delvis got the same treatment from me

 

[Freefaller]

My favourite calorific smoothie was:

1/2 tub of live natural yoghurt
big handful of mixed berries
big handful of blueberries
Big handful of oats
1 banana
1 apple
2 large scoops of whey
1 large tablespoon of peanut butter
cinnamon
fullfat milk

Blend.

SO much happiness in 1L.

I wouldn't recommend it for everyone - but certainly from time to time it's a great calorie counter!

Similar to my favourite smoothie FF, soooo goooooood

Aye...Steedies re-written my diet bless him

I'm still after your input by the way on things I said before mind

EDIT: @LiE: I chose wraps over pitas due to the less carbs, i was going kinda non-carb throughout the day where I could, then carbs evening for dinner. Odd yes, but thats how life is really

Too much dairy for me but looks like something I would have enjoyed in my milk drinking days. Good selection of fruit. Might consider berries in mine but might have to use a different flavour whey than choc.

 

[icecold]

Doing smoothies like that is part of what made me use unflavoured whey, and what broke my blender

I could do with a recommendation for a good hand blender. I broke my last one and the new one isn't very powerful.

Oh yeah lots of dairy, and unflavoured whey... but I can cope with dairy really well fortunately. However, it's something that I would do once in a while now - I used to have that EVERY DAY! Then again i was over 16st
