It's my soccer team's semifinal game EARLY on saturday morning. If we win we play in the finals later that day. Also, at around noon I have to ref a game.
What's a good breakfast which will provide me with energy to keep going the whole day? And what should I eat throughout the day?
I've gotten different pieces of advice from different people. My sister told me I should load up on carbs so I have lots to burn. Others have told me fruit is the way to go, but to stay away from acidic fruit like apples and oranges. I generally have a bananna or two before a game, as I was told it gives you energy and leg strength.
It's not my first time in the playoffs, but it's the first time I've really cared about the food I eat. I finally understand that Lucky Charms isn't the best breakfast. Plus I'm captain of my team this year, and I figure if I'm supposed to be leading my 'mates out on the field it would help to have energy.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated!
