Breakfast : Why is it that breakfast is the hardest meal for me to eat. It's not that I don't like breakfast food. I love it. For years I have a routine of getting up, hopping in the shower, getting the kids ready for school while I get ready for work and heading out the door. Breakfast isn't in that routine. We leave the house pretty early and the kids eat breakfast at school. It's hot and it's cheap. I used to come to work and have coffee for breakfast. A couple cups of coffee with my yummy-flavored-calorie-sugar laden creamer were all I'd have. I quit coffee in April and so I haven't been having anything for breakfast for a while. This week I've started a campaign to eat better. And I'm starting with breakfast. I have a bowl of hard boiled eggs that I can grab on the run and I'm keeping fruit and yogurt handy. I've also got granola bars and trail mix. I still don't want to get up any earlier to fix a breakfast so I have to have things I can grab on the go. At least for the moment. I'm getting ideas for freezer to microwave egg/sausage/bacon/English muffin/hash brown goodness as well. It's a start. It's always a start. I'm finding that eating something in the morning makes me hungrier by lunch time. I don't know if that means I'm burning calories or not, but my body definitely knows that something is different.
