Build-A-Meal: Better Breakfast

Starting the day with a balanced breakfast is crucial to getting your metabolism going and getting off to a good start. Pam suggests keeping breakfast, lunch and dinner fairly consistent in calories and enjoying small snacks between meals to avoid blood sugar spikes and dips.

Choose one food from each category for a quick, healthy breakfast.

Protein: 1 cup (8 oz.) milk, 1 slice (1 oz.) cheese, 1 egg, 1 container low-fat yogurt

Carbs: 1/2 cup whole grain cereal or oatmeal, 1 granola bar, half an English muffin or half a whole grain bagel

Fruit: banana, small apple, orange, grapefruit or your fruit of choice
