Hey all,
Typically my breakfast consists of fruit (berries, apple or banana), 2 eggs, maybe a slice of bacon or multi grain toast or oatmeal. But my biggest issue is what to drink with breakfast? I don't like coffee and other hot drinks, I don't like orange juice and my husband won't drink anything other than cranberry juice cocktail which is useless. So that leaves me with milk or apple juice. The 8 oz of no sugar added apple juice take up half my sugar allotment for the day. So I'm looking for suggestions... what do you all drink with your breakfast?
My friend is a trainer and she told me that breakfast needs to be my main meal of the day especially since I work out in the mornings so I don't want to replace it with a quick smoothie.
Thanks!

If you don't do coffee or tea, I would do just water.0

Green tea and water0

The sugar on MFP is set really low and many people here don't bother staying under it unless there's a medical issue present. If you have the calories for it, drink the apple juice if you want it. If I have enough calories, I like milk, but I don't do breakfast typically. Also, "breakfast is the most important meal of the day" is a myth. Eat whenever you want.0

Hot water with lemon in it, delicious, green tea, or buy a juicer and make a fresh juice.0

I feel like this is a trick question. Why are your only options milk and juice...and not water?
If you're drinking apple juice, you may as well be having a Coke with breakfast if you prefer it.0 -
Cold-brewed coffee with chocolate almond milk added.0

Hot water with a slice of lemon
Herbal flavoured teas
Green tea/ Peppermint tea
Water

Have you tried Kefir milk? It's like a liquid form of yogurt. There is a lot of protein, probiotics, and it tastes good. Otherwise, I like to drink Chai Tea with my breakfast, although that is a hot drink. I don't know if you've ever tried it.0 -
Take the berries that you already allot for in your breakfast and put them in a blender with some unsweetened almond milk - delicious, healthy and you will have a drink! Also, you will only add 30 calories with a cup of unsweetened almond milk
If you want to change things up a bit, add flax seed or chia seed to the mix.0 -
