If I hadn't announced that I was going to change it on the blog (therefore providing me with accountability) and if I hadn't gotten gestational diabetes (which I mean that I had to have protein first thing in the morning) I don't think that I would have ever changed. We were also eating quite a few Eggos just before I changed our breakfast routine… I had been sick for the first 3 months of the pregnancy and my husband took over breakfast too, so… Eggos it was :) Perhaps you could start by adding something to the waffle breakfast like a bowl of fruit, a smoothie, or some turkey or chicken sausage? (This is our favorite breakfast sausage- my sister's kids love the apple maple, but my kids briefer the country http://www.alfrescoallnatural.com/products/breakfast-fully-cooked-chicken-sausage)Julie@teachinggoodeatershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12299361735005931044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3203356489467354137.post-78751060444920842622013-11-15T07:08:53.716-08:002013-11-15T07:08:53.716-08:00That's smart, I hate our breakfast routine as ...That's smart, I hate our breakfast routine as well. While we don't do cereal, we do frozen waffles. Usually they're the Earth's Best brand but they're tough to find so my husband often picks up Eggos. I cringe when I see those boxes, they're the worst. But he does much of the breakfast routine so that I can sneak in a morning walk with the dog. And because he's so great to do that, I ease off a little on my harping about quality food. One day I'll get my act together and start making giant batches of healthier pancakes or waffles and start freezing it!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11021796369416909246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3203356489467354137.post-2186902336838065092013-11-14T05:06:21.068-08:002013-11-14T05:06:21.068-08:00I wish I could fall in love with oatmeal… my kids ...I wish I could fall in love with oatmeal… my kids eat it regularly but I don't (shh… don't tell! They are actually much better eaters than I am.) I did try your Chia pudding the other day and loved it (especially with banana and coconut sugar- have you ever tried coconut sugar?)Julie@teachinggoodeatershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12299361735005931044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3203356489467354137.post-31822682459310692512013-11-12T12:57:53.659-08:002013-11-12T12:57:53.659-08:00I used to be a cereal addict!

Sometimes we eat the oatmeal cold with milk and a little cocoa powder.jmommymomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18038986572848163326noreply@blogger.com
