It is 9:04 am, and I am NOT hungry. I seem to have found a good appetite suppressant…. want to know what it is? *drum roll please* Eating a good breakfast! Seems like those “experts” might know what they are talking about after all.

I have to leave for work by 6:30 in the morning, and I’m just not a person who has much of an appetite when I first get up. So usually I find myself grabbing a quick bowl of cereal before making a mad dash to finish getting ready and get out the door on time. And then of course, I’m hungry by 9am, and positively starving by lunch time. For the last week or so, however, including this morning, I’ve stuck a few brown n’ serve sausages in the microwave and scrambled up a few eggs for breakfast. It doesn’t take more than a few extra minutes, and even though I don’t have much of an appetite that early in the morning, I haven’t had a problem getting them down. Even better, it’s almost lunch time before I’m really starting to feel hungry. Definitely a step up from getting hungry at 9am and spending a couple hours trying to stay out of the chocolate!
