This was my downfall before, my mornings are eye-popping, with baby & older two to get ready & off to school. I never seemed to have time to cook anything.
I was thinking about maybe boiling some eggs the night before & have them cold with some ham & maybe a slice or 2 of cheese?
Do you have any good brekkie ideas?
I do have the George Forman grill this time which I didnt have before, so a couple of slices of bacon probably wouldnt be too difficult.

i pimple 18 eggs on sunday and eat 2 - 4 each morning during the week ( or after a workout ) on my way out the door. its 3 seconds to eat and fills you up. i eat them natural, but you could add salt / pepper / cayenne / cumin / etc.... if you ' ve got some no - sugar ham slices or smoked salmon to go with, then perfect!

I always have my brekkie after the school bound. So I can have some me time and enjoy it.
I have bacon, egg, mushrooms and tomato [ / icon_lol. gif] Its enjoyable and fills me up til 2pm.
Hope you do well I have only been doing it since Tuesday and have lost 5lbs already.

On the weekend, I almost always have an omelet for breakfast, using whatever veggies and meat are in the frig.
On the weekend I have low - carb yogurt, some cheese, an Atkins shake or a hunk of turkey breast. Lately, I ' ve been adding 1 / 4 to 1 / 2 cup of berries to my breakfast. I ' m in the OWL stage though. On Induction, you should skip the yogurt and berries.

I usually have an omelette with bacon and cheese but you could make oopsie - rolls and in the mornings toast them and put whatever you like on them.
I have also tried an egg cream recipe which is a bit like a shake made from eggs. I wasn ' t too keen on it but you might like it. You can prepare it the night before and put it in the fridge.

Boiling eggs the night before is definitely the way forward... I might go and boil some now actually!

brilliant suggestions, thank you.
I tend to have to get up with baby at around 6 & back from the school run around 9, dont think I could wait that long for brekkie.
So I think i ' ll grab an egg to keep me going, then have a nice brekkie of an omellete, or some bacon eggs & mushrooms when I get back.

I usually get an egg omelette on the weekends because it takes longer to prepare... and on weekdays, its usually eggs with a slice of cheese and a little bacon
