Breakfast Blahs
on 8/4/09 12:19 am
I do really well for awhile, but long about August, breakfast is almost repulsive to me. But, I know I do better overall if I eat the nasty stuff, even if it's just a shake or some yogurt.
Today I mixed on scoop of muscle milk light cake batter flavor in one carton of thick and creamy light cinnamon yogurt-that made it have the consistency of frosting.....and wasn't bad at all....something like 200 calories and 18 grams of protein.
I'm doing what I can to get something in my tummy in the mornings.
I have thought about taking whole wheat graham flour adding protein powder and making a muffin thing..just not brave yet...but if encourage me I will try it..
And I cant do yogurt either..I am werid
BW when is the next meet and greet

I don't want to chew anything early in the morning-when it's cooler outside, I can deal with oatmeal, but right now even the thought of it gags me-but if I don't eat something, I will for sure get into trouble later on in the day.
I used to make a "cheesecake" out of jello and yogurt that was pretty good-I may try that. You could do the same with jello and ricotta.....in fact I might do ricotta too because I think it has more protein.
By noon, I'm ready to eat steak-it's just getting that morning dose of protein I struggle with. I bought some bullets-but this morning THEY grossed me out.

Can you share the recipe for the "cheesecake"?

If you like ricotta, my ricotta dessert is really good for breakfast, too. It's just ricotta cheese, half a packet of splenda or truvia, fresh lemon zest, and SF blackberry or apricot jelly. Just make sure your ricotta is fresh!! Stephanie was over for the 4th of July and I made some up and didn't realize it was bad. Thankfully I tasted the cheese before she did. LOL
