hey Baby Phat, a couple of suggestions I have for cereal from health magazine, I am jotting down what is written in the article-
Pour one cup high fibre cereal (make sure it contains at least 4 g fiber per 100 cals) such as Kashi Golean Cruch, or Fiber One, Nature's Path Organic Optimum slim, All Bran. Avoid anything with high fructose corn syrup.
Also if possible slice 1 medium sized banana and add to bowl. Top cereal and fruit with 2 tablespoon chopped almonds and walnuts, pour in skimmed milk.
This all amounts to 432 calories.
Now, I think if you want to reduce the number of calories, you could cut down on the amount of nuts or smaller banana.
This magazine suggests having around 450 calories for breakfast, lunch, dinner each and having two 150 cal snacks in between- in all amounting to 1600 cals..

Thanks so much, choco-lover. I will try what you have here. I used to have Kellogs honey bunches with almonds but I think it has lots of fructose and hence very tasty. :) While my parents are here I should try what you said 'coz after they leave I will barely have time to get dressed in the morning.

Hey, nice suggestion choc, but knowing me, it is close to impossible for me to do all this and reach office before mid-morning!! :(

any other on-the-go varieties?

Hey Baby Phat, LOR,

here's a couple of suggestions for on the go breakfasts-

1.Carry a banana- lots of potassium and calcium, good for women.

2. I have started packing some fruits prior nights. It helps when I have to rush to work in the mornings.

3.So I pack a ziplock box with some berries- blueberries ( antioxindants), rasberries (vitamin C), or some other fruit like apple (anitoxidants), peach (vitamins but some more sugar than others but good sugar), orange (vitamin C), tangerine (vitamin C) . you can choose which ones you like and have that after you get to work.

3. Its also good to get some protein in the mornings- how about carry a fruit and also a yogurt?- (plain yogurt is the best as it has lesser sugar:). You can also cut the fruit and put into yogurt as you eat.

4. Pear with some low fat string cheese is also an option.

I am planning to get a insulated lunch box and also maybe some ice packs as we don't have a refigerator at work ( isn't that wierd:). But if you have a refigerator you can just store yogurts there and have when you want..

Hope this helps gals:) Great job on food and workout!!
Love
