Has anyone got any adbise on what to eat in the morning to avoid being starving by about 11.
I usually have a bowl of sultana bran, toast and a banana and im always starving by about 11!! i thought i ate quite a bit.
OK I know the theory on this, although don't necessarily practice it  What you're eating there equates to about 5-600 calories. Given that you are 'breaking your fast' in the morning there is an argument that this should be the biggest meal of the day. ie maybe in the 800 - 1000 calorie range. Also, that's not a bad breakfast as such, especially if it's brown bread, but it's nothing but carbohydrates - with quite a few simple sugars from the cereal & banana etc. So although there's complex carbohydrates there which take a bit longer to break down, the sugar spke will raise insulin levels, increase your metabolism of said sugar and leave you feeling hungry. So try 1) eating a bigger breakfast and 2) eating more unrefined wholemeal carbs (porridge/wholemeal bread etc and 3) get some protein in there to leave you feeling fuller for longer. e.g. bacon & eggs on wholemeal bread etc |

Try http://www.eggnation.co.ukBung them in some milk and add that to your breakfast, it will keep you felling full much longer than carbs alone Paul |
