I finished my food chart for today and I was way under on my calories ( I had maybe 600).

I know why, I NEVER eat breakfast because im so busy the second I wake up. I get up, change my daughter, make her something to eat, feed her, clean up the mess, change her again and start cleaning up the house and I guess you could say I forget to eat. By the time I actually get to eat I stuff my face till im full and then im pretty much good for the rest of the day because I ate so much.

What are some good calorie foods that i could just do a "eat and run".

    mini-bagels 100 calories and the carbs fill me up for the day. You can even spread a little peanut butter or whipped cream cheese on them if you stay easy on the knife. Its how I start every morning because I used to do the same thing, coffee and run so that by the time lunch hit, I was eating everything in sight!

    GOOD LUCK!
  • carnation instant breakfast! pour milk and add the powder. it's amazing, not chunky, it mixes well. tastes like chocolate milk.. you can get different flavors too, vanilla or strawberry.. i think there might be more.

    reduced fat peanut butter has 190 cals in 2 tbs
    on a english muffin or celery
  • I've been doing protien shakes in the morning: http://www.vitaminshoppe.com/store/en/browse/sku_detail.jsp?id=IP-1024

    It took a while to get used to because I used to go to starbucks and get myself a coffeecake every morning so yeah, big difference. :-)

    Anyhow, now I love the shakes and look forward to them.
