‘Four fried eggs': What a dietitian makes of this breakfast
This story is part of the May 25 edition of Sunday Life. See all 13 stories.
Matty Mills is a broadcaster. The 29-year-old shares his day on a plate.
7am I wake up and have a coffee, overnight-soaked chia seeds, four fried eggs and half an avocado, before I head to a 45-minute weights class at the gym.
8.45am After my workout I have a protein shake. On my way to the podcast studio to record First Things First, I pick up a second coffee – a strong oat latte.
12.30pm After recording, I have a teriyaki chicken rice bowl for lunch. I'm then on to my second shift of the day, straight into hair and make-up at NITV.
7pm I get home and prepare dinner for my partner Danny and me. Tonight it's grilled lamb chops and mashed potatoes with a side of lebanese cucumber. For dessert, it's a cup of frozen mixed berries.
10.30pm Just before heading to bed I drink a Sleep Well organic tea.
Dr Joanna McMillan says
Top marks for ... Including chia seeds at breakfast, which is a great choice – they're rich in omega-3s, fibre and antioxidants. You've also done well to spread protein across the day, which supports muscle maintenance and satiety.
