i always had issue eating sweet and heavy things early in the morning bc they made me feel so sick and i basically had to force it down.
iāve said it here before but i love quesadillas in the morning bc theyāre fairly quick yet so filling and give you so much energy. i also make baked pita āpizzasā w olive oil, feta, spinach, roasted peppersā¦honestly whatever i have in the fridge.
i really love a good egg and french fry moment when im feeling lazy :) or leftover rice and beans. i always pair anything i eat with a hot tea or some kombucha for easy digestion.

Once I released myself from the shackles of only eating breakfast food at breakfast time my life improved dramatically (I too hate the texture of eggs and can't stand eating anything sweet before noon)
I tend to eat leftovers for breakfast. Typical morning is pastawith veggies, soup, a sandwich made from scraps etc.

iām obsessed with oatmeal (more specifically trader joeās instant oat meal).
not sure how to explain it but i literally wake up at 6am everday just so i can eat it.
hot take: add chilli powder, cheese or a spoonful of ghee, its like the best thing ever

So Iām not normally a breakfast person but I started eating breakfast when I was also trying to lose weight, and I lost around 20lbs so this is what I did:
I always make sure the first thing I do in the morning is drink water, I used to immediately go for coffee so I wasnāt grouchy but it can spike your cortisol levels on an empty stomach and lead to bloating and extra weight in in your stomach from the hormones.
So water first, and then always always always a protein filled breakfast. Whether itās a yogurt parfait, eggs, cottage cheese and fruit, etc. Protein helps you feel fuller but upping the amount of protein you eat per day will also help you lose weight. My faves: cottage cheese with peaches or pineapple on top, omelettes with veggies, yogurt with berries, shakshuka, panagyurishte style eggs (itās like the Bulgarian take on Turkish eggs). I also ate a lot of those zero sugar yogurt cups like the light + fit zero sugar ones, some flavors are actually really good.

started writing this a few hours ago when i first saw this ask, then decided against posting but i've since changed my mind. there really is no justification for it outside of entitlement. even from a selfish lens, there's no long term benefit to its usage. it harms the world and culture in more ways than one.
a.) the water and energy usage that isn't a secret at this point. "no ethical consumption under capitalism" yadda yadda and yeah corporations are extremely culpable in the state of the environment but there really is no need for chatgpt and the planet is already too delicate at the moment.
b.) the exploitation of workers in the global south. this program is not just a computer figuring it all out, there are in fact humans behind it. it reminds me of the acceptance of fast fashion and how people have the tendency to divorce the idea of the garment worker from the garment they wear when all clothing is handmade in some way, shape or form. you need hands to man a sewing machine, you need human eyes to moderate content. also, content moderation can be a thankless job with psychological repercussions.
c.) the erosion of social skills, humanity and media literacy...this one is very personal. like, you have a cushy email job but can't write an email? you need a computer and a worker in kenya to get paid a dollar an hour to figure out a daily routine for you? i've seen the program churn out blatantly incorrect information. fine tuning a prompt or chat or whatever to give you the exact (possibly incorrect) answer you need isn't really that much less work than sharpening your research skills by cracking open a dictionary or using boolean search keys in google. again, the main issue with this kind of stuff is the entitlement to convenience, with no thought towards the repercussions within and outside of us. we are losing major recipes (critical thinking and media literacy) here, people!
i probably did an iffy job are coherently articulating my thoughts here but i am in fact, human. and thatās the beauty of it all.
