Did you skip breakfast this morning? Today, there are lots of whole grain cereals to choose from, and if you can find one with around 9 grams of sugar per serving, you'll be on the right track. Just top your cereal bowl off with fresh fruit you'll have a wholesome breakfast that takes just minutes to prepare and enjoy.- When the weather gets cooler (eventually, I'm sure...) I like to have oatmeal most every morning. Toss in a few raisins, apple slices, banana slices and cinnamon along with a splash of milk, you'll be good to go.
- About milk, if you're a whole milk drinker, see if 2% milk will do. For many 2% works for cereal, and only need the richness of whole milk for various hot beverages. Try some 2%, and I doubt you'll miss the whole.
- Frozen blueberries, strawberries, peaches and other fruits can be purchased from your local market, so be sure to add them to your shopping list and to your breakfast. Super quick breakfast? Try milk, banana, berries and/or peaches in a blender equals a wholesome breakfast that you can take with you when you're in a hurry!
Occasionally, French toast, bacon, eggs and the like is a fun way to indulge a little, but for the most part breakfast is best when it's light and wholesome. If you push away from the breakfast table feeling like you just had a Thanksgiving meal, you may want to think about some lighter breakfast choices.
I like flavor as much as the next person, but I'm also always experimenting with foods that offer natural flavor without too many additives. IYes, it takes a while for the taste buds to adjust, but they will adjust, so why not start eating better right now? These are steps in the right direction towards getting fit and eating better!
