1. Eggs will help you out. If you don't like pork bacon, remember that there is also turkey bacon. There is also sausage links and patties you can "nuke" real quick. Mix the bacon or sausage into a scramble egg mix. It's simple. Then you can always make omlets. You also have the dairy side of this. Fruit mixes are easy. There are the combos of those two: fruit smoothies. Cut some oranges, toss in with some cream or ice cream and you have a cool breakfast in the summer. You can also make breakfast tortillas. Uses wheat tortillas, less processed carbs. Heat up some chicken breast and cut into pieces. Put on the tortilla with your eggs, chicken and add some cheese; you have a delicious meal. As far as boiled eggs go; different groups say differnt things. I say, what makes you fill satisfied and yet leaves you not feeling bloated or tired? Eat just enough.
2. "Seen It" has no clue what he is talking about regarding of giving a good advice for having a low carbohydrate breakfast. I do not always recommend low carb diet for anyone especially during breakfast. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day and the portion can be large only if you are not planning to eat a lot during lunch and dinner. The reason why I do not recommend low carb it is because you are basically putting your body on fasting and it does no good but harm to your cells and brain. If you want to have a low carb breakfast, you should do it during lunch or dinner. Remember this, carb is better than fat or protein diet. If you want a high nutrient density breakfast, you may do the following: -- Bacon is high in saturated fat and cholesterol so you must AVOID. (EVEN turkey and other type of bacon because they uses substitutes substances to replace fat- which is bad- heart diseases.) -- If you want to make eggs, do it with egg eater (the one with no fat and cholesterol) and make scramble eggs for breakfast (for proteins and b vitamins). This way you can eat them everyday in a serving size. -- For vitamins, potassium, magnesium, calcium, you can always go for fortified orange juice, vegetables, fruits, and skim milk. Get 5-10 minutes UV light a day for vitamin D so it can enhance the resorption of calcium in blood and bones. -- 100% Fruit juices are better than high fructose corn syrups drinks like soda and other fake brands juices. -- Eat your wheat food like whole grain or granola for polyunsaturated fatty acid. (good for heart) -- have some fresh fruits and vegetable, NOT CANNED ONE. -- limited salt and oil intake. Breakfast is the MOST important so you have to consume more on micro- and macronutrient foods. Overall, you just have to remember this one thing. Doesn't matter what kind of diet you are in to, if you exceed the calories you need for the day, you will gain fat/weight. Good Luck.
3. Well, it is also important to keep fiber intake up. I am doing well eating fruit in the morning. It's quick and I can take off and feel fine until lunch. Onions are under-rated in nutritional value, they are very healthy and are infections fighters. I also make an omelet. I first put some butter in a pan and saute onions. If I have some green pepper, I put some of that in too. I put that in the omelet and have a feast. I've heard it said: Eat like a king at breakfast Eat like a prince at lunch Eat like a pauper at dinner I think there's something to that. I watch carbs not calories. I've found that more effective than watching calories. Cut carbs and you feel better period.
4. Hi! Reading about the Fat Loss 4 Idiots Diet makes you wonder if they might not be on to something. The way the diet works is different than other fad diets that involve cutting out certain types of food like low carbohydrates, low fat or low calorie. Instead it uses calorie shifting foods that you would normally eat, increases the number of times you eat, and changes when you eat certain things for fast fat loss. What is Calorie Shifting? The way calorie shifting works involves tricking the fat hormones that are sent out by the brain. Every time you eat something, your brain sends out fat storing and fat burning hormones, depending on what the item is. The idea is to send more fat burning than fat storing hormones, so that the body does not hold onto the fat for later use. If you keep confusing the metabolism, you will see fast fat loss, as much as 9 pounds in 11 days, that is the first weightloss principle of Fat Loss 4 Idiots Diet. How Does The Metabolism Control Weightloss? This scientific weight control fact about the metabolism and how it works stems from our ancestry as cavemen, when there were famine periods between hunts. The body would store and hold onto fat for survival. The metabolism has not evolved from this self-defense tactic and doesn't realize we can just run to the grocery store and get whatever we want. On restrictive diets, weightloss can plateau when the metabolism thinks it is experiencing a famine period, and it will only burn what is taken in. Even on some of the popular low carbohydrate diets, it is advised to eat pizza for two days when your weight plateaus to get the metabolism going. Why Do Some Weightloss Diets Leave You With No Energy? The only problem with many of these restrictive weightloss diets is the metabolism goes back to only burning what you take in and many people complain about being tired and worn down, when it is mainly the metabolism storing up the energy for later. By eating healthy, nutritious foods that are fat burning, the metabolism burns as much energy as you need. Many people on restrictive weightloss diets will regain the weight when they go back to eating normal foods. What Is The Best Diet For Weightloss? The best weight control diet allows you to eat the foods that you would normally eat, have in your refrigerator and cabinets. By timing when you eat certain foods, how many times a day you eat them, and balancing the types of food, your metabolism will burn what you take in and then some, because it knows you will be feeding it again shortly, instead of starving. Prepackaged fat loss products and frozen dinners are not something you can live on the rest of your live. You need to understand the basics of natural weight control, and Fat Loss 4 Idiots Diet uses the fundamental principles of controlling the metabolism with calorie shifting normal foods you eat every day. Check my source, it might help. It's a diet that works. Good luck!
5. Hello Marilyn, Here are some ideas. You can replace bacon with with sliced tukey. There are many different kinds that you can use. Boar's Head makes a variety of sliced turkey products. Also, you could use sliced ham. As someone else has mentioned there are also quick and easy sausages that you can make. Of course, the turkey is the healthiest amongst the list. And don t forget, you are also allowed cheese on a low carb diet, so you can alternate with different cheeses to mix it up. Someone has mentioned fruit juice, and someone else has mentioned mixed fruit. Depending on your daily carb intake, you might not want to do that. Of course, eggs, can be tiring. Atkin's advantage makes delicious breakfast shakes in about 4 different flavors which are perfect for low carb diet's. They also make low carb pancake mix, low carb cinnamon rolls, and a variety of low carb bars, that would be good for breakfast. To drink, teas are good.. You can alternate with different herbal teas, and also water or seltzer is good with a little bit of lemon, and there is also a company called "Carb Countdown" that makes milk, and even chocolate milk that is low carb. It is carried in a lot of grocery stores. Another thing that might go good with your breakfast, is Entenman's makes all kinds of low carb cakes such as crumb cakes.. Hope this helps..
