Be like Duke!


Okay, seriously, since I wrote this out for someone else, and have been asked quite a few times, here's my morning oatmeal concoction, which I've been eating for about two years. (Prior to this, I used to make a morning shake, but I like the oatmeal-based version better.)

In my 100% rolled oatmeal, I add: AOR's Essential Mix (one scoop), creatine (5g), New Chapter's Berry Green (7g), cocoa powder (12-15g), d-ribose powder (1g), lactoferrin (500mg), TMG powder (500mg), 3 drops of 2000IU-per-drop D3, Diamond V (5g), lecithin (2g), histidine (1g), cilantro extract (5 drops), Jigsaw brand whey (25g), BCAAs (4g), EV coconut oil (5g), Tropical Oasis brand liquid cal/mag (tablespoon and a half), EV olive oil (4g), DMAE powder (100mg).

It doesn't taste all that great, but the cocoa seems to overwhelm everything else, so it's not horrible.

What do other people eat for breakfast?

What do other people eat for breakfast?

Generally, I like to vary everything. For some reason, I keep coming back to this meal, though:

Eggs w/ mushrooms, chicken, whatever mixed in
Sweet potato hash browns
Ghee used to cook hash browns and eggs
Sriracha used on top of everything
Whole goat milk w/ whey
Black coffee

I'm fairly sure my body is in need of a heart attack. Hormesis and all that.

[spaceistheplace]

Into a tall glass of water I mix:
1 tablespoon of Jarrow's Yaeyama Chlorella and Greens+ powder
2 tablespoons hemp seed protein (15g)
15g goatein protein powder

[lucid]

cocoa powder (12-15g)

I'll be honest, I can't handle the cocoa in my oatmeal. I find my oatmeal more enjoyable if I just make a hot cup of cocoa (raw & unsweetened of course).
I like oatmeal for breakfast but I keep it pretty simple: Unsweetened Oatmeal + Cinnamon (helps to cover up lack of sugar) + light soy milk. That does me just fine.
I like your idea of mixing Lecithin in with the oatmeal: Lecithin isn't something I look forward to everymorning but 2g will probably be pretty masked by the oats.

Eggs w/ mushrooms, chicken, whatever mixed in
Sweet potato hash browns

That makes me hungry too. I like the idea of sweet potatoe hash browns, I haven't tried them before. Can you find them @ the store? Making hash browns by hand is frustrating: you have to shred the potatoes then soak and drain them a whole lot before you cook them otherwise they will turn into mashed potatoes. Store hashbrowns make it so much easier. Shitake mushrooms chicken eggs, & sweet potato hash browns... mmmmm.

I saw this quote while watching the 2001 trailer:

i wonder if we will still be alaive wen this game comes out

-another good reason to join ImmInst

My breakfast routine consists of no-sugar added strawberry applesauce and natural peanut butter on waffles along with a Morningstar breakfast patty for protein and occasionally yogurt.

I would imagine some one sells them, but I've yet to find them in my fairly small city. You can make a big batch at once and freeze what you aren't going to use in the next couple of days.

[happy]

The mainstay is:

assorted frozen organic vegetables (varied from time to time) cooked in nonfat chicken broth with walnuts added later, whey protein shake, grapefruit,


Every now and then I will have eggs, salad, chicken or grassfed beef mixed with vegetables.

Today's I did strawberries for variety (organic, frozen)

[kclo4x]

I have:

• 1 can of tuna fish mixed with diced pickles and ranch dressing (so its basically like a tuna fish sandwich, but with out bread)
• 1/2 cup blueberries
• 1 cup of oatmeal mix with chocolate flavored whey protein, raisins and a cut up banana.
• As well as some of my supplements which i wash down with a big glass of cold brew ice tea/Green tea + lemon juice.

Btw, Lemon juice increase the anti-oxidant powers of green tea

Do you think there is not enough oils in my breakfast? or do you think i should add something els to my breakfast?

[Matt]

Sorry, mine is pretty basic compared to yours lol.

I first start off with a 25g serving of Reflex Whey protein Powder (chocolate, banana or strawberry without aspartame)

Rolled Oats 50g
Blueberries 100g
Almonds 20g
Walnuts 6g
Banana 60g
Raisins 10g
Essential mix - 6g (with sweetener)
Vitamin D3 - 5000IU
Lindt Dark Chocolate 70 - 85% (10g - 20g)
.
I'm looking to get lactoferrin and some supplement of Beta glucan. Pretty simple really, but those that are having just plain porridge (oatmeal) are really missing out. My breakfast tastes so NICE! I look forward to it everyday


Nice to see Duke Nukem again, can't wait to see some in game footage!

Duke,

You don't think that the phytic acid in oatmeal is binding some minerals in your multi?

Oh and what no cinnamon?

[Mind]

1 can of tuna fish mixed with diced pickles and ranch dressing (so its basically like a tuna fish sandwich, but with out bread)
1/2 cup blueberries
1 cup of oatmeal mix with chocolate flavored whey protein, raisins and a cut up banana.
As well as some of my supplements which i wash down with a big glass of cold brew ice tea/Green tea + lemon juice.

You must be a body-builder with that kind of breakfast. A lot of protein and calories. What kind-of weight/BMI do you maintain?

[ajnast4r]

usually breakfast is:


40-50g whey/egg/casein mix
1/2 cup berries
1tbsp hempseed oil
3G creatine
1/2 tsp ginger
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 cup oats


i will either cook the oats, and mix it all into a porridge... or cook the oats and blend it all into a shake.

tastes great

Hi Matt, have you ever checked out all-in1 for their whey protein? They are the same company as Reflex, just different branding, and much cheaper.

[zoolander]

I have just changed my breaksfast

100g cooked Organic Quinoa
100g frozen Blueberries
30-50g frozen Cranberries
50-100ml Bonsoy organic soymilk
10-15g 100% organic Cocao
1 scoop Jarrow BerryHigh
1 scoop of customized Protein mix*
optional: sometimes add 1 Tblsp crushed nut&seed mix

I dissolve the cocoa in a little bit of warm water and then mix all ingredients together like a porridge

I plugged all the infor in (minus the BerryHigh) and added a custom food (TrueProtein protein powder) into nutritionaldata.com

Here's the rough breakdown of the above breakfast




*40% Whey Protein Isolate Cold Filtered, 25% Micellar Casein, 10% Creatine (3g), 10% Glutamine (3g), 5% Arginine (1.5g), 5% Taurine (1.5g), 5% Leucine (1.5g)
