Starting The Day Out Right

I love ALL meals but I truly enjoy starting the day off right with a healthful, tasty breakfast.  It just sets the tone for a great day.  I have a few fall-back all time favorite meals that I fall back on when I'm strictly following a Weight Watchers regimen.

Egg White Scramble - By mixing 3 egg whites with an egg, and adding tasty vegetables, you can mix a delicious breakfast that won't break the points bank.  These days I've been using mushrooms, spinach and tomatoes.  Yum!  The eggs are 3+ points and the veggies, 0.  I use olive oil adding another 1+ point.

Skinny Overnight Oats - These are really tasty and being prepared the night before makes morning prep nonexistent.  Go here to Skinnytaste for more info:Overnight Oats. I use stevia to sweeten and it is delish! Points values vary but 6+ for this particular recipe.

Smoothies can be yummy and help get those fruit (and possibly vegetable) servings increased.  I add nonfat greek yogurt, unsweetened almond milk and some flaxmeal or chia to increase protein and bulk.

Most importantly, I find just making sure to plan and eat a healthful breakfast is one of the best strategies to good health and successful weight loss.  A little green tea is great too!
