How are you so healthy and habit-maintaining? Explain yourselves!!

I've been trying to eat breakfast lately but my body thinks I'm trying to kill it and everything feels like I'm eating sand lmao

What are your quick breakfast meals? Do you feel like your body hates you when you try to eat first thing in the morning?

The way I understand the nutrition involved, what you need in the morning is protein and healthy fats, and of course water and salt.

That said, start with those and you can fill in other items as facilitators - eggs and avacados pretty much cover all those bases, so some whole wheat toast can help make that all the more appealing if you need. But figure out how you like to prepare those things and build around it.

Also, get an egg boiler. Those little counter top doohickys - they make boiling eggs way less of a hassle (both effort and success rate). Just be warned 99% of them out there sound like a dang fire alarm when the timer is up - I got lucky with my current one that just plays an aggressively jaunty tune when it's done.
