1. Breakfast is not good. Switch to a higher GI carb source. Sprouts won't give you much of a Bloodsugar spike. Leafy Veggies aren't really very high GI, so Glycemic load will be inefficient. Something like Wheat / Corn Cereal is a very good choice here, especially for the Fibre.

You want a Bloodsugar spike first thing, as Bloodsugar is lowered, and the Brain needs sugars to help it function, so this is why high GI carbs, in a quantity that yields a good Glycemic load is beneficial. Milk should be okay.

2. Wheat Chappaties, might be a bit high GI, owing to the Wheat content, and you don't want that later on, when Bloodsugar is stabilised, so depending on Carb content, I'd maybe have 1, and then another Carb source, (low GI), to cut overall GI, and lower GL.

Not sure about Curd, but perhaps have a better protein source, like Chicken, Sliced Turkey, Soybeans, etc etc.

3. 3 boiled Eggs and Fruit Juice, is inadequate. Plus the 3 Egg Yoks is too many in my opinion. You'ere ingesting 15g Fats, and quite a bit of LDL Cholesterol which is not good.

I would have 1 Boiled Egg, add another Protein source, and possibly something else for Carbs, like a Veggie source. Fruit Juice shouldn't be affected digestion wise, like whole Fruit can when ingested with other food, so Fruit Juice should be fine, especially for the Sugars in it, which after workouts will help to spike your Bloodsugar back up.

Though the Fruit Juice may yield low Carb levels, so GL spike could be compromised, but another Carb source like a veggie source, would increase Carbs, up to assist this.

4. Chappatties again, as stated before, the possibility of a high Bloodsugar spike, so I'd have 1, and use a low GI Veggie source to boost Carbs back up. The piece of Chicken should be fine.

5. Boiled Eggs and Fruit Juice, same advice as in point 3.
