This blog isn’t just tech stuff and weird videos, I also want to share ideas about the intersection of fitness and our increasingly computer-centered work lives. For the past few years I’ve been mercilessly teased for having basically the same thing for breakfast every day. An egg, some french toast, a couple of pieces of fake bacon, and a glass of juice. WELL, vindication has finally come – delivered by the fitness guru herself, Jillian Michaels! This is from her great site (I highly recommend both her iPhone app and subscribing to her daily newsletter).
“As many of you know, breakfast is an absolute MUST in my book. Eating a hearty breakfast helps reduce levels of the hunger hormone ghrelin, keeping you satisfied throughout the morning and allowing your mind to focus on things other than your next food fix. While you probably don’t have time to make a gourmet meal before work each morning, that’s no excuse to skip breakfast. There’s nothing easier than pouring low-fat milk into a bowl of whole-grain cereal; more involved recipes can be made ahead of time, or you can cut down on the morning workload they entail by preparing the core ingredients the night before.
Try this vegetarian egg bake — it’s packed with high-volume, low-calorie veggies and lots of healthy protein that will keep you satisfied and prevent energy lags later in the day. The salsa adds a nice kick! Make this the night before and give it a quick warm-up in the microwave in the morning.”
Here’s the link to the article and recipe. Keep those ghrelin gremlins at bay and maybe you’ll have more energy for your website and social media intiatives!
