Rex Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 I've been gone for awhile. Ever since I started school, bodybuilding has been sorta of difficult for me to keep up. Now since I quitted my job to focus more at school; I thought it'd be a good idea to keep up with bodybuilding again. I was wondering what should I eat in the morning before leaving to school. I usually can't eat a lot, or I'll end up throwing up. I don't know if that's because of me eating too fast(sometimes running out of time) or my body is just starting up (sometimes I compare it to a computer, when you first boot up your computer it's slow and takes forever to open up programs until you wait for it to be on completely) I don't know if I'm really making a point here lol. Usually what I eat is a bowl of granola or oatmeal with soymilk. When I'm at school I usually eat one to two fruits and one granola bar, til I get home at 5:30. I was wondering if there are any other meals I can have instead of just a bowl of granola and soymilk that can help me stay awake and give me more energy until 5:30?

If you want add a few nuts or seeds in with the fruits but regardless you should eat fruit every morning and with every meal of the day, but definitely in the mornings!

Guest Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 I like to start my day with two bananas or one banana and oatmeal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zack Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 I usually do a smoothie...Ed introduced me to the wonderful idea of adding oats to your smoothies, now I put 450 calories worth in mine X_x. He said "you only need a little." I said..."I put in a cup and a half?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artystik Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 I make a kale smoothie for breakfast. It's fresh kale blended with water, a banana, 1/2 a cup of oatmeal, 1tbsp of ground flax seed, and some stevia for sweetness. Blend that in a blender and you're good to go.

mkiojon Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 When you guys put oatmeal in your smoothie, is it cooked first or do you just pour it in straight out of the box? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 I always put it in straight out of the box. What's also pretty good, is either some hemp protein or veg, throw in some fruit, couple of figs and blend it with water. It's a good start. Even though you are using water, it still is calorie rich.

pratt Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 I vote for a fruit smoothie with some flaxseed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 I make sure I put the oats in first and turn it on high so they get really broken down...if you do it later in the process you'll wind up chewing oat...which isn't a bad thing but I'd rather have it creamy.

mkiojon Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 Thanks for the info on that. I'll give it a shot. If I need to break down the oats a bit more, I can put them in my coffee/spice/flax grinder. It turns everything into powder form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
