Re: A Weighty Subject.
Does anyone else find, that at the beginning of each day they aren't hungry until they actually eat. We are told that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, yet for me, eating triggers the wish to eat. I sometimes think that if I did not eat until lunch time, I'd be fine.04-07-2011, 01:54 PM

Re: A Weighty Subject.
You are right I think. I'm not included in this thread because I have the opposite problem. (I have no appetite at all and need to gain weight.) So by lunchtime I eventually start picking at bits and pieces. If I make a rare bowl of porridge in the morning (which is supposed to keep you full for longer) I find I am starving an hour later and so eat more and that goes on all day. Strange .......04-07-2011, 03:14 PM

I wake up hungry and enjoy a good bowl of porridge with fruit and honey.

I agree on the porridge thing, I think some protein like eggs, are more satisfying. Because you don't have to worry about weight gain you could cook them in butter - say an omelette, even more satisfying. NO

Re: A Weighty Subject.
My doctor has prescribed tablets which block 30% of the fat that I eat. Suddenly I have to look at every mouthful I consume very closely or else I can make myself very unwell and the resultant bowl movements are horrific.I have managed to hardly take any of the tablets as I have been living on the lovely fruit that is available cheaply in the supermarkets. I am also enjoying beans on toast, tuna & sweet corn sandwiches. I have started usuing skimmed milk and I don't bother with low fat spreads, cheeses or anything described light as it usually still has a lot of fat and loads of sugar.
BBQ every evening of chicken breasts, fish or turkey with lots of salad and baked pots. This time of year everything tastes good which is a help.
The only thing I miss is ice-cream, biscuits and chocolate, so I have been using frozen bananas to make my own fat free ice cream, chewing on bread sticks, and just dreaming about chocolate.
