Re: What to eat at sehri?

something light N long-lasting...whole wheat cereals, toast with margarine, boiled eggs, orange juice, **jalebii soacked in milk overnight**** is a must and an exception] :D**

Re: What to eat at sehri?

You need something that will provide you with slow releasing energy all day. I usually have 2 slices of wholemeal bread with a little bowl of porridge on the side also. Make sure you drink plenty of water too. Good luck :)

Re: What to eat at sehri?

the things you mentioned , Tabu are definitely going to work when we get December kai roza’s in the UK :cb: but with the roza’s coming up we are fairly getting geared for 18 hour roza’s … to last that one you must have high fibre food like the above friends have mentioned … you can try adding flaxeed to your sehri , that is really heavy and will keep you going nicely through to the afternoon … us ki baad i cant say , tummy apna apna :cb:

Re: What to eat at sehri?

And paratha ,
kabab paratha
chai paratha
Pheni
Khajla
Cereal
Left over from last night.
I am not picky I will eat anything because I make sure I do not stuff myself at iftaar. I keep it light and small at iftaar , to make sure that I can have right amount of food at sahar so that I could be energetic at work during the day. Even then by the time I go home I feel so weak and lethargic.

Re: What to eat at sehri?

yah , Pratha is a definite must to have ... also dates .. if you eat 4-5 dates after your sehri khana .. they act as slow release energy and will get you through halfway the roza ...

Last year i had a super bad routine , stuffed at iftar , couldnt wake up on time for sahoor , meaning I couldnt stuff up again , so started having dates on days i would wake up late for sahoor and I realized dates kept me going alot better then many other types of food i had been eating ..

Re: What to eat at sehri?

I eat lighter at Iftaar as I struggle with taraweeh at the mosque otherwise, and fill up at sehri.

Typically I'll eat:

Half a roti with daal or veg (I can't stomach a meat curry at that time)

Cereal, phenni, or porridge
Fruit - usually a banana
If I feel up to it, a yogurt
Tea
Plenty of water

Sounds like a lot, but as I say I don't eat much at iftaar

Re: What to eat at sehri?

Something heavy, usually a regular salan with roti or paratha and then its a must for us to take a antacid pill after that.

Re: What to eat at sehri?

antacid pill ..30 days :aaho:

Re: What to eat at sehri?

Yes, I know not a good thing maybe but because I go back to bed after sehri and namaz, if I dont take antacid - I wake up with heartburn.

Re: What to eat at sehri?

I can never eat a paratha for sehri. Mostly its just roti with yogurt and a cup of milk/tea. Nothing fancy.

Re: What to eat at sehri?

^ oh yes, yogurt is another must in our household

Re: What to eat at sehri?

We usually have:

Roti with salan or some sort of egg + dahi, coffee, water and zantac :D
or
Bread, egg, hashbrowns, coffee, water and zantac

Re: What to eat at sehri?

I was abt to say..whts will all the pills …then asked sis wht exactly Zantac is used for( had heard the name before so knew it was a pill) and found out its for heartburn itself:hehe:

Re: What to eat at sehri?

zantac seems to be an important person in your home nikki :cb:

My first every ramadan after shadi , I woke up diligently 45 minutes before sahoor time , but he wouldnt wake up on time and we would end up rushing and not eating properly … eventually we both ended up waking just 10 minutes before sahoor and eating dates and milk … it was really horrible ..

This ramadan I have promised myself that i will wake up an hour early prepare proper khana and gaseet my husband out of the bed too in time for sahoor :sahar02:

So its going to be parathay and yoghurt for us inshallah …

Re: What to eat at sehri?

Dates and milk is pretty good too…I heard its full of energy :hmmm:

Re: What to eat at sehri?

I love eating dates in sehri!!

Re: What to eat at sehri?

dahi, paratha, shami kabab, :chai:

Re: What to eat at sehri?

We take one pill all 30 days during sehri, and trust me, we never have heartburn or headache which one can experience due to change in timings of meals and sleep patterns.
