Tuesday, March 4
Breakfast. That most precious meal of the day where unfertilized pre-chickens combined with fried low-quality cuts from Porky is the accepted staple. Yum.
However, this requires time, or at least more time than I usually allocate between "open eyes and groan" and "leave the house" each work morning. So weekends I tend to go overboard.
During the work week I've settled into a routine that seems to work well for my work habits and my figure - coffee for breakfast. Highly adulterated coffee, that is. Lots of milk/cream/honey for those calories. And then a cup or more of coffee with my favorite additive - General Foods International Coffees, in French Vanilla Cafe flavor. This item is likely the single worst food that I consume on a regular basis in terms of 'health'. But I allow it, in the name of Balance. Hehe.
So late in the morning after my liquid breakfast, I get a bit hungry. Depending on the day & current availability, I will have a bowl of whole grain hot cereal (usually the "Red Mill" brand with some added honey & butter, OR I will have a big pile of fruit. Grapes (1lb) or cantalope (1 whole) is the de rigeur. But I can't stand fruit out of season - it just tastes like overpriced crap, which is really what it is. So in the winter its the hot cereal.... sometimes Chilean grapes.
This breakfast routine has actually helped me lose weight this past summer. Or maybe it was the stress of my new position at work.... or both.
