McMissys!!!

One thing that has helped me drop weight and get back to my competitive weight class is what I dubbed McMissys. A McMissy is a breakfast sandwich that consists of a 100% whole wheat english muffin, a turkey sausage pattie (or slice of ham), slice of cheese, and one fried egg. I eat two of these every morning and they taste great. Lately I am even having them for lunch. I honestly cannot get enough of them and they do a great job of keeping the hunger at bay.

There are many foods that can be made quite a bit healthier just by adjusting the ingredients. We made MissyMacs the other day. We used lean ground turkey patties, whole grain buns, and a homemade big mac sauce with better ingredients.

Don't forget to enjoy the real deal at times too. Training hard and eating right doesn't mean denying yourself, it just means to keep things in moderation. This week alone I have lost 3 pounds but had taco bell twice, an italian sub, and papa john's pizza. The thing is I didn't have to gorge myself in the process but I did eat well. Hell I took down half a large pizza but still woke up a pound lighter than the day before. Besides the pizza all I ate was two sets of McMissys for breakfast and lunch and also a snickers bar. Not the best choices but still I dropped weight even while eating what others would tell you would be horrible for losing weight. I just don't do that every day. Plus I train my balls off and that makes a big difference.
