We all have them, mornings on the fly that is. Each morning can be like an international airport, people coming and going. That’s so true at our house. We all get up, get ready, eat and go. Who has time for breakfast right? Well, if we can, you can!
Here are some suggestions (using the Weight Watchers point system) that should get you fueled up and ready:
1. For those who left already, Herbalife Meal Replacement shakes: How does 2 minutes sound to you? That’s about how long it takes to make it (guesstimated) Just mix, blend and serve. Grab a to-go cup and head out the door. You can have a snack around 10:00am and be good until lunch. This is what I did to loose weight as well as having a shake for lunch too. For an 8oz glass this comes to 3 or 4 points depending on how much protein powder is used.
2. For those with a little more time: You can make yourself an omelet. Just use Eggbeaters (1/2 cup), 2 slices of fat free Turkey meat, 1 slice of fat free ham (Walmart) and 1 slice of light cheese. This will net you about 5 points using the Weight Watchers points system. This suggestion is based on one person / serving. Time to prepare 5 to 7 minutes (guesstimated).
3. Pancakes: You can have 3 pancakes for 3 points. You can use any of the following: Ant Jemima’s Whole Wheat or Buttermilk, or Fiber One pancake mix. Now, be careful on the size, you don’t want to go overboard. Bigger isn’t always better. See your nutrition label for more information.
If you are one that doesn’t eat breakfast, then you are missing out on the most important meal of the day. The body needs food to loose weight and it also need food for fuel. Even on mornings that I am up late like around 9:30am I still have breakfast, though I don’t eat as much since lunch is around the corner.
