MORNING MEAL

Ok everyone in your opinion what is your favorite first meal of the day?And why?What's the protein content?

I have two Brian...

1 cup Kashi Go Lean (surprise)
2 scoops of whey protein
2 cups of skim milk
601 calories, 72g protein (46%), 66g carbs (42%), and 8g fat (12%)

My other favorite, when I am watching carbs and calories is...

3 servings of Egg Beaters
2 slices Kraft fat free singles cheese
3 slices of Healthy Choice baked ham
1 Healthy Life whole wheat hamburger bun, toasted
290 calories, 38g protein (52%), 26g carbs (35%), and 5g fat (13%). Tastes just like an Egg McMuffin!

2 scoops of whey
2 cups of fat free milk
2 pieces of turkey bacon
1 piece of rye bread toast

sounds like the breakfast of a champion brad! I workout first thing in the morning on an empty tummy (not cause I want too....but have to cause of work) I usually take BCAA's and beta alanine before my workout, and a waximaize shake right after..bout 8:30, maybe I should start have'n Brad's meal about an hour after my shake at work ?!?!? or....get up an hour earlier and have a meal like that before my workout ?!?!?!

My favorite is oats, whey, banana and peanut butter. :)

Sounds simular to mine Nelson.Every morning I have a bowl of oatmeal and 3 to 4 table spoons Natural peanutbutter mixed in it.
I also have an ON whey protein shake.And my multi Vit's some fish oil pills and my first round of CLA.My total protein in that meal is around 50 + grams.

3/4 cup oats
1 cup strawberries
1.5 scoops of ON's Chocolate Casein
1tbps of natural PB

3-4 tbs brian??? Thats quite a bit of fat actually..thats between 50 and 80 grams of fat depending on the peanut butter you are using!

30 grams Jeremy.I have that much for the good protein.But your right it is a little high in fat.

In my mind.. I'd cut it back to 1tbs and up ur whey protein...it's a better source of protein, plus it gets in ur system much quicker than the peanut butter...And u want ur muscles fed as quick as possible 1st thing in the morning since uv'e been sleep'n all night!

Note taken but I workout hard, and I take a good CLA product that helps balance out the high fat in the peanutbutter,I have already thought about cutting back the peanutbutter to 1 or so and I also have a big casein shake at night before bed so it's not a real big emergency in the morn but I still get in 50 + grams of protein in right away in the morn.Trying to get most of my protein from food bud.Protein powder is real expensive these days...

Last time I bought protein powder was yesterday LOL and it was $65 for 5 lbs of ON 100% Whey, I have purchased it online for $55 for 5 lbs but to save on shipping and get a better deal you need to purchase $100 for free shipping.

I figure at 1/2 scoop pre-workout and 1 scoop after workout thats 45 grams per day and thats if I don't have another scoop at night with my cottage cheese LOL.

Just for budget reasons I have done some math LOL.

One five pound tub of ON 100% Whey has 2268 grams, divide this by 45 (1.5 scoop daily) you get 50 servings and this lasts just over one month. :)

Two scoops a day will last for 38 days.

Sam's Club sells EAS 100% Whey in a six pound bag for under $30. Buy two bags and your yearly club membership is paid for.

They have EAS 100% Whey here for $50 but for an extra five bucks I prefer ON. :)

ON sits well with me as with others I get the gastro issues.

I use only ON products I feel they are the best.I have done research on alot of protein powders and ON really does lead the industry.I buy 100% whey from ON and Pro comp from ON and Casein from ON.Thats alot but I feel I have to have them all.It can get pretty spendy.I like to try and get the bulk of my protein from good food like eggs lowfat cottage cheese all natural peanutbutter (smart balance makes a good one)Chicken etc.But The whey proteins are hard to resist because of how great a protein it is for your muscles,Especially if you workout on a regular basis.

Brian I am with you on the research.

I have used EAS, NxCare, Dymatize Elite Whey and the stuff from Costco and by far ON tops my list even though at times it costs me an arm and a leg if things are tight but I see it this way.

It has a good dose of BCAA and glutamine per serving that alone is worth the product.

ON's whey rocks!!!

1 Cup oatmeal 3 whole eggs 2 packs splenda 1/4 tsp cinnomon Directly after my shake of 1 1/2 cups soymilk 1 scoop whey 1scoop Glyocomaize (my new fav.) 5 grams creatine.

You have the Glycomaize in the morn meal? I'm going to start that one soon whats the best way to use it Dave?
