[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What kind of protein bar are you having? If it’s a healthy one, maybe it’s not such a bad option for weekdays. [/quote]

Clif Kid ZBar Chocolate Brownie.

It fills me up until lunchtime.

Those have very little protein and calories. I like RX bars and go macro bars. They’re not as healthy as eating whole food but good if you’re in a rush.[/quote]

Right…but it seems to hold me until lunch and I’m losing weight. [/quote]

But if you’re trying to add more exercise and build muscle tone, you might want something with little more protein. [/quote]

One of my few family food rules is no chocolate for breakfast.  [/quote]

While I certainly understand the motivation behind such a rule, I enjoy making pancakes, waffles, muffins, etc. with chocolate chips on the weekend. My kids enjoy it. And once you are eating such carbs, throwing in chocolate chips really isn’t a big pivot.

And a chocolate doughnut every now and then is a really treat.

FWIW, I have a food philosophy as well: if my last meal on earth is a salad or anything involving kale, I feel that I will have lost the game at life. Winning at life means enjoying food and not having any rigid restrictions. After watching far too many friends and family stricken with cancer or other horrible health issues despite being a food-obsessed health nut, I’ve decided to err on the side of moderation. [/quote]
