One half a whole wheat bagel, toasted and with a smidge {less than 1/2 tsp} of butter.
One half of a juicy grape fruit.
And one packet of maple and brown sugar instant oatmeal topped with a handful of blueberries.
This breakfast had lots of items, was filling, covered two fruits and two grains, and is only one seventh of my daily caloric intake {at 2200 for a nursing momma}. So, I feel pretty happy about it! What did you have for breakfast today?
Considering I still can hardly taste anything I did enjoy my berry protein shake for breakfast. I'll be blogging about it later since it also had some special ingredients in it.
ReplyDeleteI like this breakfast because it has so many different parts. Something bready, something warm and sweet and something fruity.
ReplyDeleteI had oatmeal with blueberries this morning, only I ate way too much because I'm still trying to figure out the portion size whether you measure it before or after you cook it. I ended up eating over 500 calories and it's not even 10:00am. It's gonna be a long day!
ReplyDeleteSue, I know home made is better for you, but I do the packets because I know exactly how many calories I'm getting. 1 packet = 140 cal.
ReplyDeleteI had a protein bar for breakfast because i did not wake up until 7:30am and had to get Christina to school and myself to work and all by 8:15am.
ReplyDeleteA chocolate protein shake with ice to make it almost like a milk shake is always a good start of the day on the run.
