Breakfast of Champions

Absolutely. It's a lot more difficult to increase the calories out than it is to decrease the calories in.

It sounds like this worked great for you, but for most people oatmeal and protein before bed wouldn't be the best choice. Oatmeal and whey protein do raise insulin levels (ok in the morning, great after workout, but not so great before bed). A better choice is cottage cheese and casein protein before bed. Both are carbs and protein, but casein proteins are digested slower.

Yeah i think It depends to the individual in regards to what works for them eg. aim, as in their goal wether it's fat loss/weight loss, muscle gain etc. I have a friend who is overweight and he started doing cardio daily and lost a lot of weight but still ate junk.

It's great that this works for you though, anyway to help you get healthier!! Congrats

Good info and thanks for posting

good stuff ! Although I'd swap the oatmeal before bed to say a protein shake or some low fat cottage cheese mixed with protein powder.

You don't want to be taking in a serve of complex carbs right before you sleep
