Tiny fill for one please?

OK - now I know I need a fill. I was skeptical at first, thinking that I just needed to be more mindful of what I was putting in my mouth but after yesterday's eating I am sure of 2 things. 1 - I need a tiny fill 2 - I need to try and eat breakfast Breakfast is something I have struggled with since being banded. I just don't feel hungry in the morning - fast forward to 10am and I start to feel a little ping of hunger - fast forward to 11am and I have gone into food search mode. Food search mode for me is bad - very bad. It usually consists of staring into some random vending machine and before I know it I am holdiong an empty bag of chips. Anyway not good. I am not a real yogurty person. I used to love my toast in the morning but that is a thing of the past :( What are some other suggestions for a quick and easy - sit at your desk to eat - breakfast?? PS - I am resisting the call of the vending machine and am going to make myself up a nice late instead :) PPS - The Ab Pro is really good so far - I am getting a little bit of a sore spot on my knee - but I think its because I am not using the knee pads. I will start using the knee pads tonight and I am sure that will fix the problem. Happy April Fools Day everyone! I haven't even punk'd anyone this year - how boring is that!!

  1. I usually eat greek yogurt, but if that doesn't work for you, how about string cheese? Or a pre-made protein drink? Or protein bar?

  2. I do protein shakes in the morning. If I'm working I drink just a regular protein shake at 4:00 a.m. and then a hard boiled egg about 6, or 7 a.m. and a cheese wedge about 9:00, then my lunch about 11. If i'm not working, I wake up about 8 or 9 and my hubby makes a really good protein shake with blended fruit and other goodies! Then I don't usually eat again until lunch.

  4. I love the Smart Ones breakfasts - specifically the Ham and Cheese Scramble. If I'm tight, I can't eat it first thing, but at only 220 cal and 21 g protein, it's a great microwaveable meal. http://www.eatyourbest.com/product/ham-and-cheese-scramble.aspx
