It turns out there might be something to it.
Apparently, consuming 20 grams of protein within 40 minutes of waking up will keep your body from going into "starvation" mode where it slows the metabolism down, which prevents the body from burning extra calories.
But consuming like 2 eggs, first thing in the morning, will keep the metabolism high, thus burning more calories throughout the day than normal. Another step you can take in the battle to keep the weight off.
Good to know. I like to add a scoop of whey to my porridge in the morning. Mostly for chocolaty flavour.

My weighin is 9. Then my fights Are after. Spectators are £5. I'm sure you can afford that.
I made 73.7 at the weekend, got excited and ate a shot load of choc. Now back to 74. :(
