What do you usually eat for breakfast?
I've been having oatmeal and that tides me over pretty well... but I can only eat oatmeal for so long before I start going "Blech!"
I want to stick with a good breakfast routine.
Anyone eat anything really good in the morning?
Re: What do you usually eat for breakfast?
My breakfast is nothing all that exciting, but I like it, so that's what's important. I usually mix Fiber One and wheat flakes with banana in skim milk. I've always been a cereal in the morning girl
DH almost always eats egg whites - makes omelets or puts on toast/english muffins.
I know this sounds super gross, but I swear it isn't.
I like to crack an egg into a small, round tupperware, microwave it for 30 seconds (which basically is egg scrambling for lazy people) and then put it on a toasted multigrain english muffin. It was low on WW points when I was doing that and very filling and tasty.
Toast with peanut butter is also good.
i mix it up between some of these things ...
oatmeal
ww english muffin w/ PB
yogurt w/ granola
cereal/milk and yogurt
breakfast burrito
I usually have cereal with skim milk.
Lately I've been eating great grains cereal mixed with some Fage yogurt - yum!
If I'm in a hurry - I have a cereal bar and a banana on the drive to work.
and coffee - always coffee.
I wish I had a good answer, unfortunately with a 50 minute commute I usually eat on the way = cereal bar
I am never hungry right when I get up and so by the time I shower/get ready it's time to go
This is *exactly* what my DH eats every morning before work lol.
4 weekdays - light yogurt
1 weekday - bacon & scrambled eggs or a ham & cheese omelette w/ peppers & onions.
weekends - usually cereal & milk; sometimes we go out or I'll make eggs.
I like egg white omelets. I chop all my veggies on Sunday and just have to throw in the pan during the week.
I'm also a huge shake fan. I use milk, banana and a tablespoon of low fat peanut buttter and agave instead of sugar. It's really good. It's also good if you use vanilla protein powder. The protein from the PB and powder tie you over and it tastes a little like a milk shake so it's like a "treat".
