Break the fast

It has come to my attention that some of you don’t eat breakfast.
I know, I can’t believe it either.
Experts will tell you breakfast is the most important meal of the day. I will tell you that every meal you eat is the most important meal of the day. But this isn’t a lecture about every meal of the day. This is a lecture about breakfast.
After going six to eight or even 10 hours without food, your body needs to break the fast and refuel so it can function efficiently. Not only that, eating a real breakfast will keep you from eating those leftover doughnuts in the break room or hitting the vending machine when you start to bonk mid-morning.
I start most days with a serving of protein and carbs.
What’s that you say? You don’t have time for breakfast?
Yes, you do.
Here are a few fast and healthy breakfast ideas in case you’re not thinking clearly because you skipped breakfast:

• 2 hard boiled eggs and a piece of Ezekiel toast
• Protein shake with berries
• Greek yogurt with fruit or granola
• Oatmeal with protein powder
• Whole-grain cereal with almond milk
• Egg Beaters microwaved with a handful of veggies and some fruit

If you’re not a fan of traditional breakfast foods, just eat something you’d normally eat for lunch or dinner like chicken, veggies and a whole-wheat tortilla. You get the idea.
