so I’ve been mixing up my breakfast these past couple of days to see what will suffice me until lunch. I can’t remember the last time I was forced not to eat for 5 hrs in between meals. Yeahhh I know 5 hrs isn’t much, but when you use up all your energy on the kids, I’m ready to eat in 3 hrs. I’m not even allowed to drink water or have snacks in between cuz I “shouldn’t eat in front of the kids when they’re not allowed to…” ermm I get the respect and all, but I though that was one of the few perks of being a teacher. Being able to eat in front of the kids! and they dont have lunch until 11:40!! The latest I can have breakfast is 6:30. So far…
1 bowl of special k: starving by 9
1 bowl of kashi: starving by 9:45
scrambled eggs: starving.
2 scrambled eggs: starving by 9
scrambled eggs with cheese on bread: too lactose intolerant for cheese in the morning.
scrambled eggs with dried shredded pork on bread: got me through till 11. but takes way too long…
this morning I had sunny side up, and while i was making my sunny side up I was munchin on a bowl of kashi so lets see how this goes. I think I’m good on time too cuz I’m knockin out one while I’m making the other.
Oh! and of course all of these come with a cup of coffee… I have my second cup on my way to the school since I have all the time in the world sitting in traffic -_-;;

    Oh man that’s a toughie. 5 hours. I get hungry about every 3 hours too. My recommendation: eat a dinner-like meal for breakfast. Prepare it the night before even. Protein will tide you over longer too. I can last fairly long on a big pb&j too. Don’t skimp on the pb, that’s what will stay with you longer. You basically have to eat for 2 meals to last 5 hours. At least that’s how I would approach it. Man I never thought of that aspect of teaching. That’s rough.
