What did YOU eat for breakfast?

robinhardysmall

I have a very difficult time with breakfast being so early~ so when I get to work at around 8:30 I always have a 100 calorie bagel with Laughing Cow Cream Cheese (Strawberry)! I make myself eat this just to jumpstart the metabolism for the day.

Then...right about now- 10ish I have some grapes and pretzels.

I eat about every two hours during the day- and so far it is working

I was never a breakfast eater, but tried it out when I started this journey towards a healthier life. I credit my progress to breakfast! I'm amazed at what a difference it has made in my energy throughout the morning. My productivity at work has improved too (although I'm writing this when I should be coordinating a training haha!)

Try stirring in a packet of no sugar added Carnation Instant Breakfast to your coffee. Yummy, low cal mocha and it boosts your nutrients and gets your metabolism going.

A half cup of nonfat Greek yogurt (I add some stevia to help with the tartness) with fresh fruit and granola keeps me satisfied for a long time.

Overnight oatmeal is great too! Fix up your old fashion oats the night before, stick it in the fridge, in the morning they are ready! This morning I had half cup of oats, half cup of unsweetened almond milk, cinnamon, nutmeg and half a scoop of vanilla whey protein. I topped it off with blueberries

Happy Breakfast Eating!

I had oatmeal this morning. Love that stuff! I eat mine with warm milk or half & half. I have since I was a kid. Can't do water...just doesn't taste the same!

I had Chocolate Cream of Wheat. It's the bomb! Love it!

I had 2 waffles and 2 scrambled eggs. I always try to pair protein in whenever I eat carbs.

2 scoops of ON Casein powder and about a pound of strawberries.

Stuffing down a can of no sodium added pinto beans right now.

This morning I had a Thomas bagel Thin (110 calories) with laughing cow garlic and herb cheese wedge (35 cal) and 3 slices of Oscar Mayer Oven Fresh Ham (23 calories). Then I had 2 Jimmy Deans turkey sausage links on the side (78 calories). I'm working on upping my protein. So I had a total of 246 calories for breakfast.

I also had a greek yogurt after my run, but I don't count that in my breakfast. That's my "6:30 I ran for 30 minutes and this is my reward for not dying" treat.

Porridge with banana, toasted sunflower seeds and brown sugar. So yum! Glad I had it, was feeling a bit too blah to get around to cooking a proper dinner and mostly just grazed for the rest of the day.

i'm usually not too good at breakfast , i mean eating in the morning *groans*
i've had to try more recently as i have to eat with my new morning meds. You have to think of something you'll enjoy to convince yourself .
Bananas are great if you need to run to work or whatever. Just try to see it as COMPULSORY! Luck.
