Try having protein and carb every 2-3 hours (plus lots of vegetables of course) and instead of all that bread and cereal, try a slow carb that will not spike your blood with sugar. Beans, yams, oatmeal, lentils, brown rice.
Good luck -- if you are addicted to sugar, the prospect of giving it all up for beans will not be enticing.  |
Really. I don't consume that much sugar per day. I like to drink juice but their fruit juices like orange juice.
I can say though I have a weak stomach in the morning, so solid foods are kinda bad. I'm thinking of buying a blender and then putting fruits ,beans, oatmeal and protein powder every morning to drink. Beans as a protein substitute cause I don't really like eggs all that much. Something about the smell that turns me off. What kind of beans do you recommend? Kidney beans?

Ham is not "real food", it's processed meat rich in unusable chemicals that will wreck havoc on your enzymatic system like most heavy metals. Try to avoid all processed food as much as you can when eating out. Shocking News About Processed Meat |
yikes. That is scary. Its tough sometimes when you're in college and avoiding processed food. Also would it be good if I take zinc magnesium supplements?
