Not eating breakfast will make you tired and grumpy. Eating small, healthy meals every 3 hours and eating healthy food in general, is a much better way to lose weight for someone who normally eats too much.

Speaking from experience here. If you skip meals and go a long time without food, you'll crave junk food/snacks, and plenty of it. It's harder to stop eating then.

I've read some of his previous posts. He's lost 145 lbs in 11 mos. so whatever he's doing (for breakfast) must be working. That takes a lot of will power and determination....so good job 2Crowded!

About what I eat & when I eat it:

Here is an example of what I eat every day:

Breakfast- 1 banana, 1 Thick & Creamy lite yogurt, 1 boiled egg.

Lunch- 1 banana, 1 Thick & Creamy yogurt, 1 boiled egg, & a High Protien Slimfast meal bar.

Dinner- 1 big bowl of hearts of romain lettuce, topped with "Free Zesty Italian" dressing, 2 sliced boiled eggs, shedded cheese, & grilled chicken strips, I also eat another yogurt/or banana as well. In between meals I may grab a handful of raisons or a spoonful of peanut butter.

Some other dinner items I incorperate are a Turkey sandwich on whole wheat with lite dressing, or a 6 inch turkey sub from Subway, or canned corn, or 2 Baked breaded flounder that I make into a sandwich with of course Whole wheat bread.

The main thing is I make sure I never over eat.. & if I feel at all like I may have just a tad, I make myself pay for it by doing extra time on the bike. And as far as drinks go, water, water, water, & a glass of V-8 Fusion Lite. I take a multi vitamin twice a day as well.

There are lots of different flavors of the yoplait(not sure of the spelling) lite yogurt to choose from too so you can keep your taste buds happy & they are surprisingly good & good for you & they only have 100 calories each if you get the lite.

So basicly I am staying roughly at or below 1500 calories a day with the things I mentioned above, and it's working for me, it's not always fun of course, but the results make it worth it.

<<<~~~~ I decided to add a full reveal of my face in my avatar...so how do I look?

Remember now..you know I am sensitive to how people think of me...so lie if you have too.

:wink:

Don't be worrying about your looks, you like fine to me man. You'd blend easily in a crowd. I for one am pale and have insanely blond hair, and blend in the crowd I do not!

Good for you for posting your pic! That takes nerve. I have a very good friend Imet online, have been friends for maybe three years, and I still have only sent her a very small, vague pic of myself.

As for the weight lose thing... try exercise!

i dropped like 25 pounds in a 3 weeks over the summer. i did it by eating only 3 meals a day, all relatively healthy, and running everyday. i cut out all snacks and desserts for this time, and after i was done, i got tons of compliments :)
now i keeps this up, by eating fairly unhealthy, but working out on a daily basis. best of luck with your diet!
oh, and guestimate the amount of calories per day. i tried to in take about 1000-1500. i remember one day i burnt like 700 on the treadmill and ate like 500. i felt woozy, but also a sense of accomplishment haha.
