@NCLivingBrit , get breakfast right, that is key. Me, I don't eat a lot, but I have a lot packed in a small punch. I have a carnation instant breakfast (chocolate, has all the vitamins and minerals and all that jazz), almond milk, a frozen banana, with a scoop of 30 g of protein and 5 g of creatine all blended together to make a nice peanut butter chocolate smoothie. It lasts me until lunch.
Eggs are great, bacon and sausage are okay, but stay away from pancakes, waffles, donuts, pastries, all that stuff. And lest I sound like a hypocrite, those are things I love so I do have those from time to time.
