(copying what I posted in Baby Phat's post too:)...

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
