Healthy Weight Loss

Saw my weight loss doctor on Friday and this time he was concerned about me not eating breakfast...after some discussion he suggested that I try Medifast shakes in the morning since the thought of actual food flips my tummy...tried it yesterday and it wasn't bad at all...only 90 cal and 13g of protein...git the dark chocolate...tastes like instant breakfast and not like liquid vitamins...mixed it with water...

That would work for me as i start work early now. ( would clear that with Syr first) but iused to enjoy my protien shakes but always added fruit.

I have wondered about the breakfast thing. Sometimes I have it sometimes I don't, just depends on if I feel like it. I figure as long as I break the fast at sometime during the day and get enough good quality food during that 24 hours why is that a problem?

Especially if I am going to exert myself physically. This is where it is backwards for me, it slows me down. I feel much more energetic before I eat in the morning. So, if I am doing my long walk first thing I wait until after. It took quite a while to figure that out, I alway thought it was some kind of sacrilege to skip pre-exercise feeding, but for me it works best and has never been a problem.

I think it just speaks to everybody is different.

Disclaimer: I don't have blood sugar issues anymore, if I did it would be different I am sure.
