Day 3 on 30g Protein Breakfast

Yesterday I made a mistake. I only had a salad for lunch as I didn't feel hungry. Which gave me the munchies around 16:00.

Lesson learned. I have a home made salad and soup for today's lunch. Note, these are my usual type lunches. Only change for thee 14 days are the 30g of protein for breakfast.

This morning I had 2 home made burgers, 2 eggs, mushrooms, and French beans. Washed down with my morning cup coffee.

Day 2 on 30g Protein for breakfast

<p>Had the same breakfast today. Added fried tomatoes and one less sausage. Defrosting 2 home made burgers in the fridge for tomorrow's breakfast. And will be picking up some mushrooms on route home from work. </p>
<p>Yesterday was intresting. I always get hungry around 11:00 ish. But come 13:00 I didn't even feel like lunch.

Now where to locate my rear veiw picture of me in black speedos? At my work desk may be a bit gross. Bedroom mirror is the most private place at home where I'll be forced to see the pic everyday.

Day 1 on 30g Protein within 30min of waking

Might have just missed out on the 30min window today. Lesson learned, I've placed two frozen sausages in the fridge for tomorrow's breakfast.

On the bus to work as I type this. Breakfast was 90min ago. 2 eggs, 3 sausages and beans. Washed down with a coffee.

Also in the picture is my packed lunch and tea as I go straight to BJJ from work.

If while you're reading this your thinking I'll join this loony for this 2 week trial of having a fry up for breakfast. Here are some pointers.

Step 1 - Get into the smallest underwear you own. Have someone you trust (in my case my wife) take three pictures. Put your hands on your head. Pic1 face forward, pic 2 face to the side, pic 3 the back.

Print these and keep them somewhere you will veiw them everyday. Wallet, purse, fridge etc. They are for your motivational viewing alone. No one else need see them.

Why? We do more to avoid or reduce pain, humiliation etc then to obtain reward. So let us use this to our advantage.

Step 2 - Get onto some scales and record what you weigh. Bonus if you can measure your body fat percent.

Why? We need somthing solid to measure if the changes we've made are having an affect.

Step 3 - stock up on high protein breakfast foods. I highly recommend free range or organic eggs. Burgers and sausages with high meat content. And a high quality whey protein powder.

Why? Having these to hand will make for easier mornings. The protein powder is for those days when we run late. The free range or organic eggs will have much higher omega oils.

Step 4 - take a picture of each breakfast for at least a week. And post it in your blog or Facebook.

Why?

On average 5 consecutive sessions is all it takes to bring a new change into the norm.

Help needed, if you have and quick tasty recipes for a 30g breakfast. Please share them with me. I'm sure it's a matter of days before the fry ups start getting boring.

Power to weight ratio i.e. Losing the spare tire

I've been a chubba since September. While rolling my belly is getting in the way. I on occasion pull a 'double banger' or 'crack head control' to catch a breather, but struggle to do this now to my belly getting in the way.

I will start with one small change. To consume 30g of protein for breakfast. Within 30 minutes of getting up. Now the '4 hour body' fans will know this is inspired from Tim Ferris.

This is the only change I will make at present. All other deit and training will remain the same.

I weight 77kg and will report on weight weekly. I've taken the usual pics for my viewing pleasure. I've no problem sharing, but Mrs Bad reminds me not to feed the cyber stalkers.

Have you tried this 30g protein, within 30min of waking dietary change? What fat loss was achieved? How about trying this with me from tomorrow.
