They say that breakfast is the most important meal of the day for us. I totally agree on this. I have a pretty heavy breakfast everyday. It keeps my tummy full and satiated and all thoughts of snacks and food will be stave off for the rest of the day! As we burn the most calories in the morning and afternoon through house work, running errands, etc., our body burns off the food very quickly. All the carbo ‘allocation’ that I allow myself is mostly eaten during breakfast — fruits, kuih, cakes, bread and even junk food are all taken in the morning. Also, I need not have to eat stealthily in the morning as my kids are all in school! 🙂 My lunch is moderately heavy and dinner is the lightest meal of the day for me. Supper is a no-no for me but I have that once in a blue moon supper when we hang out with friends.
Here’s my typical mid-morning breakfast. Here, I had lightly toasted homemade wholemeal bread with butter, 2 free range chicken eggs – half boiled and sprinkled with some Taiwanese meat floss, a piece of Nyonya kuih and a mug of green tea which is a must every morning. When I wake up every morning, I down a cup of apple cider vinegar with psyllium husk and Manuka honey. Half an hour later, I have my cup of coffee with milk and take my vitamins. Once I am back from my morning exercise, I eat fruits and half an hour later, I have my mid morning solid breakfast.
What do you eat for breakfast every morning?
At work I have a chink of old cheddar cheese and a hardboiled egg. When home, I’d have a bowl of steelcut oats made with egg and shredded coconut. Keeps my tummy quiet till lunch. Wish I could have kuih though.
Chris, Steelcut oats made with eggs? Sounds really healthy!
I bought apple cider vinegar with psyllium husk before. Too bad it tasted too awful for me to swallow. I have to quit having it. Now I know why you can stay so slim.
Your breakfast is very healthy, always better than a bowl of noodle.
