i need some ideas for some really quick and easy good healthy breakfasts... i know i need to eat breakfast, but i normally dont, and i definitely do not have time to cook ever!! seeing as how i am supposed to be at work already and i'm just now getting outta the shower.. so needless to say i am always running really late.. i'm trying to cut bread and sugar outta my diet so toast is not a good idea and neither is a lot of cereals or granola bars. help!

    you could try lowfat yogurt. grab and apple or some fruit.

    make veggie sticks and peanut butter the night before. or cream cheese if you dont like peanut butter. easy to grab and eat in the car on the way to work.
    Hope this helps

    2 or three egg omlette... I eat this almost every morning. I made a two egger today with vidalia onion and sweet red pepper with a little bit of marble cheese (about 1/8 cup). Here are the stats from that meal:

    Calories: 253
    Carbs: 3
    Fat: 17
    Protein: 18
    Iron: 8
    Sodium: 255

    BREAKFAST WIN for sure. If you need some carbs, pop a banana into the mix and it pretty much rounds out this meal. Or a nice glass of fruit or veg juice.

    I personally try to only eat carbs in the AM hours and on the days I exercise I have a little more than usual. Here are some of my fav breakfast combos:

    Very filling and lots of protein:
    1 slice of whole wheat toast topped with....
    1 teaspoon of sugar free strawberry jam &
    1/2 cup of fat free cottage cheese
    and 3 hard boiled or scrambled egg whites

    Another one of my favs that keep me full:

    3 Turkey slices
    1 wedge of Laughing Cow Light cheese
    3 scrambled egg whites

    Hope this helps!!

    I can usually do a piece of fresh fruit and a handful of peanuts. Also you can boil a couple eggs while you're in the shower.

    I really like some yogurt with a small handful of old fashioned oats or some milled flaxseed mixed in. It seems to "stick to my ribs" better with some oats or the seeds added :)

    HB eggs are great too. We boil a whole carton of eggs at a time so they're in the fridge ready to grab.
