For years, people have blindly followed the saying:
"Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince, and dinner like a pauper."
But let’s be real—a true king doesn’t waste his morning stuffing his face with pancakes. A real king is already conquering, planning, and ruling. The original saying is outdated, designed for a life of comfort, not for warriors, leaders, or high performers.
It’s time to redefine this wisdom for those who live with power, strategy, and purpose.
The True Meaning of a King’s Diet
1. The King – The Fasting Ruler
A king wakes up with a mission, not an appetite. He doesn’t have time for a heavy breakfast—he’s already in action mode, making decisions, strategizing, and leading.
- Morning: No breakfast. Maybe Bulletproof Coffee (black coffee + ghee/MCT oil) for mental clarity.
- Afternoon: The first real meal comes later, but not out of laziness—out of discipline.
- Evening: A strategic meal based on his needs, not cravings.
A king who eats like a commoner in the morning is a king who has forgotten why he rules.
The modern king follows intermittent fasting—not because it’s trendy, but because it sharpens his mind and keeps him in control.
2. The Prince – The Growing Warrior
The Prince is not yet the King. He’s still learning, still training, still preparing to be worthy of the throne. Unlike the King, he needs fuel for growth.
- Morning: He sleeps longer because recovery is key. No rush to wake up at dawn.
- Afternoon: A heavy, protein-packed meal—because a Prince is building muscle, strength, and discipline.
- Evening: Maybe a light meal, but the focus is on recovery and absorption.
The Prince eats not for luxury, but for purpose. He doesn’t waste his meals—every bite is to make him stronger, sharper, and ready for the future.
The modern Prince is the young warrior in training. His meals are calculated, not casual.
3. The Pauper – The Survivalist
A pauper doesn’t have the privilege of three meals a day. He’s in pure survival mode, working all day and saving up for one big meal at night.
- Morning: Nothing. Maybe water. The grind starts early.
- Afternoon: Still nothing—he’s focused on working, not eating.
- Evening: The only meal of the day. A big, carb-heavy feast, because he needs calories to last until the next day.
The Pauper is an unintentional OMAD (One Meal a Day) practitioner. He doesn’t snack—he waits, he saves, and he eats when it matters.
In a way, the Pauper’s method is the most efficient: one meal, full satisfaction, no distractions.
The Modern Rewrite: "Fast like a King, Feast like a Prince, and Refuel like a Pauper."
This is how warriors eat.
- The King – Fasts for clarity and control. No distractions, only strategy.
- The Prince – Eats for growth and power. Every meal has a purpose.
- The Pauper – Eats for survival and efficiency. He doesn't waste his resources.
This is not just about food. It’s about how we live. The King leads, the Prince trains, and the Pauper survives.
So, the next time someone tells you to “eat breakfast like a king,” remind them:
A real king doesn’t have time for breakfast. He has an empire to rule.
Final Thoughts
If you want to live like a modern warrior, your eating pattern should align with your purpose.
- Fast when you need focus.
- Eat when it’s strategic.
- Never indulge just because the world tells you to.
True discipline starts with how you fuel your body.
Now go out there, rule your world, and eat like you mean it.
