Hello Max;

. Do you think eating pretzels or animal crackers that are both low=20
in fat would be ok.

My thoughts:
No. I suggest eating a bigger breakfast, one that fills you. I think=20
I see a clue in your question whether animal crackers low in fat=20
would be ok. Don't avoid good fat. It will fill you and keep you=20
satiated for a long time. Avoid bad fat. Whatever people think, or=20
are annoyed by, the lowcarb hysteria, it did bring out the opposite=20
danger of extreme hicarb/low fat eating. I am guessing the nosdiet=20
high council :-) would suggest a good, balanced breakfast, and I am=20
adding to not skimp on the good fat. It will fight the returning=20
hunger longer than anything. I've read that some, including our=20
fearless leader m(_ _)m, eat oatmeal. That can fill you up, and,=20
besides other good properties, has a good glycemic value, which makes=20
it a better carb. If it doesn't fill you up, add some butter (good=20
fat). That oughta gag, I mean fill you for a week, or at least till=20
dinner.

Pretzels and animal crackers are white processed flour with white=20
processed sugar - very bad.

Good luck,
Tom
