I work out at least 3 times a week. I eat
3 pieces of bacon and 2 pieces of sausage
every morning. I want to loose weight and
gain muscle. I am more concerned with
weight. Should I be eating cereal instead
or something else? Any suggestions would
be appreciated.

Well, you could go on atkins and therefore
can eat as much bacon and sausage as you
want and still lose weight, but I would
just cut your calories back and eat
healthier. Let's face it bacon and
sausage is very fatty, high in calories
and bad for you. Maybe start eating it
once or twice a week and eat oatmeal or
cereal the rest of the week. Or go on
atkins and keep your bacon and sausage.

I highly um, despise atkins. And any
low carb diet. In my opinion you should
eat cereal or oatmeal every morning like
fotasfrick said. Maybe some fruit too.
Also, for protein, try adding wheat germ
into your cereal or oatmeal. Basically
just keep this in mind...
Eat less (i lost about 45 lb by cutting
all my meals in half and stoping drinking
soda)
eat carbs early on in the day
lower, not stop, your intake of sugar and
fat
and for muscle, eat protein (canned tuna
with no mayo is not fattening and has very
much protein)
also, eat bacon and sausage sometimes, but
not too much of it, so you don't feel
deprived. If you don't want to make a
drastic change, then lower it to like, 2
pieces of each, or 1 piece of each. Also
remember eating fattening food like the
sausage and bacon and then eating a
healthful food like oatmeal at the same
time won't help you lose weight.
