Study Finds
You stayed up too late scrolling through your phone, answering emails or watching just one more episode. The next morning, you feel groggy and irritable. That sugary pastry or greasy breakfast sandwich suddenly looks more appealing than your usual yogurt and berries. By the afternoon, chips or candy from the break room call your name. This isn’t just about willpower. Your brain, short on rest, is nudging you toward quick, high-calorie fixes. More
O, Praise the Lord! An excuse!
Tart cherry before bed will help with restful sleep. Skip the melatonin it is a hormone.
Thank you, @Dr. Tar, for not using a picture of a cheese Danish. You saved me a quick trip to the grocery store bakery.
Blueberry muffins, from the Shell gas station no less.
Any and all calories, the greasier the better, but sugars and starches more readily available from work vending machines…”found” 50 lb. over the years working 56-70 hours a week…retiring sure helped withe the last 30.
A big ol’ freshly glazed apple fritter, the size of a cowpie, with two pats of real butter melted on top hits the spot.
There was a Danish boxer who fought Mike Tyson once. He was big but sort of puffy looking. Sportswriters called him the Danish Pastry. He was probably very puffed at the end of the fight.
After about a year of fairly strict Keto, I don’t get hungry until about 2-3p. But my nemesis is something our company calls “Donut Friday”. ‘Cept Donut Friday could also be on a Tuesday, Monday, Thursday, or Wednesday. Not all the days in a week, but a roving holiday. Our company isn’t heavily regulated and, as Geoff C. and I are co-chairmen, it doesn’t take much to reach an unanimous vote and declare a “Donut Friday”. We think that, as long as you limit your intake, there’s no lasting risks throughout the day of craving any more sugar. Sugar shreds the body.
@Outdoor you-know-who:
Good golly, I’m sure glad I didn’t read that until after my local Publix had closed!
Bullshit.
An article written off of a press release to glorify and promote the researching professor and/or the school — without a cite or URL to the research so that anyone can verify it.
(If I missed in the mystery meat links somewhere, please let me know.)
And by the way, “your usual” (???) yogurt (would that be nonfat, dear?) and berries is too carb-loaded. You’ll be hungry again by mid-morning. If you want to curb hunger, eat fat. Have some coffee, a little (real) OJ, and eggs, bacon and toast.
There are all kinds of crap studies, funded by Big Pharma and Big Food coming out of late about “obesity” that are blaming all kinds of things to make it “your” fault other than the garbage that has been put into our food supply in recent years, as well as the proliferation of drug prescriptions for chronic whatever.
(Also note the population obesity statistics are skewed too because of a changed demographic from countries with populations that survived scarcity conditions for thousands of years and so are more prone to obesity when that scarcity is gone.)
Go look at obesity rates in the 1950s. People weren’t eating yogurt and berries for breakfast.
