Hello Max;

. Do you think eating pretzels or animal crackers that are both low 
in fat would be ok.

My thoughts:
No. I suggest eating a bigger breakfast, one that fills you. I think 
I see a clue in your question whether animal crackers low in fat 
would be ok. Don't avoid good fat. It will fill you and keep you 
satiated for a long time. Avoid bad fat. Whatever people think, or 
are annoyed by, the lowcarb hysteria, it did bring out the opposite 
danger of extreme hicarb/low fat eating. I am guessing the nosdiet 
high council :-) would suggest a good, balanced breakfast, and I am 
adding to not skimp on the good fat. It will fight the returning 
hunger longer than anything. I've read that some, including our 
fearless leader m(_ _)m, eat oatmeal. That can fill you up, and, 
besides other good properties, has a good glycemic value, which makes 
it a better carb. If it doesn't fill you up, add some butter (good 
fat). That oughta gag, I mean fill you for a week, or at least till 
dinner.

Pretzels and animal crackers are white processed flour with white 
processed sugar - very bad.

Good luck,
Tom
