Getting the Day off to a Great Start

At one time, I never ever thought of eating breakfast.  I would get up, have coffee, head to work... take a quick break at noon for more coffee... and likely not eat at all until mid-afternoon.  Then I would graze my way into the evening until bedtime.  No wonder I wasn't hungry for breakfast the next morning... and the cycle would repeat itself.

Since joining Weight Watchers many many years ago, and getting into fitness, running, and other activities, along with adopting a healthy diet, I have learned that I need to eat in the morning.  And if I don't eat within an hour or so of waking up, I get 'hangry'.  You know, so hungry I get cranky!

Breakfast is such an important start to my day.  I am always on the lookout for a filling, protein packed breakfast that will take me through till lunchtime, without the need for a mid-morning snack.

Here are my top 8 breakfast choices right now:

1. Protein-Packed Oats with Raisins


Weight Watchers P+ = 4, plus yogurt.


2. Veggie-ful Omelet


Weight Watchers P+ = 3.


3. Protein Packed Cheesy Oats
