Here are four foods to never eat in the morning because they're not well-balanced enough, have too many carbs or too much sugar, or are lacking the protein necessary for a busy day. We were shocked by some of the foods on this list!
1 Low-Fiber Cereal
While you probably know sugary cereal isn't the most nutritious choice, sugar content isn't the only thing you should be paying attention to. If you're eating a cereal that's low in fiber and high in carbs, it won't keep you full and you'll be hungry way before lunchtime. Cue the snack attacks.2 Light Yogurt
Light seems like a good choice, right? Not always. Many packaged light yogurts are low in calories but high in artificial sweeteners and chemicals, especially when you choose the flavored kinds. Instead, opt for plain, low-fat Greek yogurt. The protein will keep you feeling fuller longer, and it doesn't have any added sugar.3 Store-Bought Smoothies
Ever thought about why you prefer smoothies to green juice? Because they're much sweeter—and that comes from sugar. Some can even contain ice cream or full-fat milk, so it's more like a milkshake than anything else. Instead, opt for eating your fruit raw, or if you have to have a smoothie, make one yourself at home using Greek yogurt for protein.4 Bagels
If you're all about that bagel in the morning, consider the fact that most bagels are the equivalent of four (or more!) slices of white bread. Talk about carb overload. But you don't have to give them up entirely; just choose the whole-grain kind and top with avocado or peanut butter, which contains both protein and healthy fat to keep you full and energized.
Other foods that made the list: pancakes, protein and granola bars, juice, granola, takeout breakfast sandwiches and breakfast pastries such as donuts, danish and Pop-Tarts. Many of these feeds will only lead to hunger pains and perhaps a blood sugar drop halfway through the morning!
What Do You Have For Breakfast?
Well, we have to admit we were a little bummed by this list. We try to eat healthy, but we've always had a weakness for breakfast foods and some of these goodies are our favorite indulgences. However, it seems we're not doing ourselves any favors so we definitely plan to eat a more well-balanced breakfast from now on.
