"Breakfast is the most important meal of the day". That has been drilled in to our heads since pretty much birth!
We make sure to never send our kids off to school without breakfast, but when it comes to us? Once again, we tend to not do what we KNOW that we should because we are so busy taking care of everyone else that we forget to take care of ourselves!
Or sometimes it is just TOO early when we head out for the day. When I used to work outside the house, I had to leave the house at 6:15am in order to to get to work on time. I have had many 6:00am flights where I had to leave the house at 4:00am to make it to the airport on time. Let me tell you - there is NO way that I feel like eating that early in the morning!
But being busy or being "up & out" too early are not reasons to skip breakfast, not when you can easily do a "breakfast walkabout".
With a little planning, you can make sure that you always are able to fit in breakfast, no matter how busy you are!
We like to keep granola bars (like Kellogg's FiberPlus bars or Special K bars) on hand for those "Grab & Go" mornings. I always make sure to keep at least 1 or 3 bars in my purse or car and when I worked outside of the home, they were in my desk as well. Those bags of cereal that we keep in the snack cabinet can also do double-duty for a breakfast on the go! Make it an even more filling breakfast by adding on a piece of fruit and you are ready to go!
