Great Breakfast = Great Day

Getting myself some vitamin C, calcium, potassium and protein

They say you can't teach an old dog new tricks. But I'm finally beginning to understand just how healthy and good for you a great breakfast can be. I'm the type of person that starts my day off with a comforting cup of tea. Then, when I get around to it, usually near noon, I think about getting myself something to eat. It's about that time when I start to feel "blah". Just can't put my finger on it, but I don't seem to have the energy or incentive that I'd like. So, about a month ago, I decided to put into practice what I've heard so many times throughout my adult life, "Start your day off right! Eat a healthy, balanced breakfast!" 

I'm happy to say that I really have noticed a difference. I don't get sluggish, and my mood is actually better because I'm not feeling a bit "grumpy" inside while trying to get things done. My body has been nourished, and received the food it needed to give me the benefit of a properly functioning, and healthy feeling body. I once heard breakfast described as "breaking the fast" - as in you've typically had no food since bedtime the night before, and now you need to get some nourishment in you, so you're "breaking the fast". Ahhh! I finally get it.

Well, what do you know? This old dog has learned a new trick!
