Eating breakfast gives me heartburn should I skip?

Why don't you try something else for breakfast?
What about fruit, yogurt, or even toast? Those are all quick and easy.

Don't excercise on an empty stomach. Have atleast a piece of fruit or some nuts for energy before you work out.
It's also not a good idea to work out right after you eat. You should wait about an hour after you eat.

it don't have to be that hard but not that easy as well. I went to the store and bought me an egg boiler. Very cheap and works great. Eggs boiled in approximately 15 minutes. I add in some turkey bacon and a few pieces of fruit like strawberries or orange. Normally you want to eat within 30 minutes of waking up. Also you don't want to go to the gym without eating first. The reason is because if you do this then you won't have the energy to make it through the work out and you will just be going through the motions.

I'm not a fan of Cereals myself and I have given a list of snacks in another thread if you want to check it out so that way you can think of other options to have at your desk besides cereal. Another thing that might work besides cereal is have you tried just making Oatmeal? Oatmeal with a couple boiled eggs is a great meal to have and high in protein and allows some fiber as well.

If you have any more questions please ask and I will be more then happy to try to assist. I am not a professional but i have done a lot of self education on all kinds of tips and techniques of dieting and stuff.

Heartburn is no joke! Do what is necessary to avoid it. I wake up at 4, work out at 5, get to the office at 8 and eat my cereal at 9. In between waking up and breakfast, I have two pints of water and a few cups of coffee with half and half or milk. This works for me. I don't have to take my heartburn medication since starting MFP (and the above routine), probably due to the smaller meals and increased water consumption.. Good luck with finding a solution.

My advice on the breakfast side of things would be to listen to your body.

I've had similar to you - heartburn or just feeling plain sick at the thought of eating in the morning. Sometimes I delay eating by a bit (and the feeling passes) or other times I just pick the food based on experience or instinct - fruit juices and milk (especially in combination) are probably my main culprits, yoghurt can go either way, toast is generally safe (although I try not to eat too much in the way of carbs because it makes me sleepy...), cereal bars can be a useful backup.

You just have to try to find the foods that work for you (and remember they might not be the same ones from one day to the next...).

Also, you've probably already thought of this but try not to eat in too much of a rush - if that means doing it at work instead of wedging it in between jumping out of bed and running out the door then I'd say go for it.

I get up early and commute to work. I do not have time or the inclination to eat before I leave home so I take breakfast to work and eat it when my body tells me to which is generally around 9am. By this time I will have been awake for over 4 hours.
I have been having soya protein based meal replacements for a while but having got to a healthy BMI I now have natural yoghurt mixed with 25g oats and 100g of fruit ( mixed red currents, raspberries, blackberries).

i eat baked oatmeal (make it once a week and have it for the week), hard boiled eggs, mini quiche's, protein shakes (protein powder, black beans or white kidney beans, egg whites, unsweetened coconut milk, cocoa powder).... those are my normal go-to's for breakfast. no heart burn. and it's really bad to not eat breakfast so definitely try to find something that works for you. It doesn't have to breakfast food per-se, just anything -- high in protein is good!
