Before leaving for school, I always make sure to have something healthy. What made me make sure that I eat breakfast everyday is that if I don’t eat, my stomach rumbles, which is quite embarrassing. So clearly I just stuff something in my mouth before leaving to go to school.
I bought yogurt and fruits, like blackberries, strawberries and peaches. I got some coconut and almond mill. I drink water and eat my yogurt and my fruit slowly. When I finish everything I’m not longer hungry. However the most difficult part is to resist the temptation of driving to Starbucks and get an almond croissant and a cordusio! My brain wants me to go to Starbucks but I feel satisfied so I know is nit hunger, is something else. It is hard!
I get up a little bit earlier and make a simple but healthy breakfast. Whole wheat toast with scrambled eggs and a side of fruit. It only takes about 10 minutes to make.
I plan at the start of the week, prep the night before and eat at my desk so I’m not trying to fit it in whilst getting the kids ready for school
Sleep early to wake up earlier. I used to go to bed at midnight. In the morning, the last thing I would want to do was to wake up and get ready to go back to work. I’d wake up at 6 and have to leave at 6:30; I barely had time to wake up and shower. Then I’d feel crabby all throughout the day because I was so rushed in the morning. When I decided to change my habits, I started to sleep earlier. So, I began to go to bed at 10 and would wake up at 5; I prepared a healthy breakfast and had plenty of time to relax in the morning. Once I started to work out in the morning, I started to fall asleep at 8:30-9 and waking up at 4. Now by the time I have to head off to work, I have knocked out three big things out of my morning list- work out, shower and eat breakfast.
I wake up 10 minutes earlier than usual (4:50) so I have time to make my breakfast. I usually make a sandwich with cheese, turkey, fresh salad and tomatoe/cucumber etc. My work starts at 6am and I’m usually not hungry at 5 when I wake up. That’s why I take the breakfast with me to work and eat it around 8am on my first break! This works for me since I just can’t eat at 5am. I do drink lots of water right after waking up though!
Being in India we have different options of traditional breakfast. But what I choose to have is variety of breakfast in limited quantity. I think that these varieties provide me several kinds of vitamins and proteins required by body. I eat pure veg. It’s usually contains Bread butter , roti sabhi , fruit , corn flakes , little milk , Poha etc. At night I usually try to eat less. Thanks!
I sometimes eat my breakfast at my desk. If that is not an option, try waking up earlier so that you have time to enjoy your breakfast. Alternatively, eat a granola bar or fruit.
I prep my breakfast the night before, like overnight oats or a smoothie. This way it’s sitting in the fridge for me the next morning and Idon’t have to think about it.
Most times i plan it out The night before. So that way in the morning it’s just a quick grab and i can’t move on with my morning instead of getting up to cook.
