Breakfast

I am starting a new job next week where I will be waking up at 3 am. I am not a big breakfast person and I know I wont have alot of time to eat in the morning. Is there anything you guys would recomend to make breakfast easier? My first break is at 7 and I am more likely to eat something then (maybe oatmeal). Should I have something though to kick start my day untill then?

Oh and I have a very sensitive stomach so please list a couple of ideas. Thanks!

    This is entirely personal preference. You can freely skip breakfast provided that you are still capable of reaching your end of day nutritional targets.

    I don't typically eat until several hours after being awake and most of my calories are consumed before bed.

    I have found that boiled eggs help tide me over if you start feeling hungry. I have been eating oatmeal and grits for breakfast. Most instant grits are only 100 calories a pack and they seem to make me feel fuller longer.

    Carnation instant breakfast is great. It is around $4.00 a box. One box is enough for breakfast for two weeks so it is not a bad deal. If that is not enough special k makes these strawberry yogurt protien bars. They are on the pricey side but they will keep you feeling full for longer and they taste great.

    How about starting your day with some fruit: an apple, orange, a banana?

    Or perhaps some low fat yogurt?

    At your 7 a.m. break, I would definitely consider following up with oatmeal. I've been eating oatmeal with some fruit for breakfast. It holds me over very well until lunchtime.

    Good luck on finding a breakfast meal(s) that work!
