Optimum nutrition starts with breakfast, but what does your morning start with?  From my 25 years of experience in the personal training industry, and the thousands of clients I have come in contact with, I have found that most people leave "planning" out of their breakfast Meal Planning.  So what do they do?

A quick stop at Starbucks for a latte?
A drive through McDonalds for a McMuffin?
Or, just EAT NOTHING!?1?

I was reading this article the other day, and I wanted to share some information with you that I don't think most people realize about in their morning ritual.  Did you know that the Starbuck's option may be the WORST choice for optimum nutrition?  Check out these stats...

Mocha coffee with full fat milk – 396 calories
Skimmed milk cappuccino – 370 calories
Mocha coffee with semi-skimmed milk and whipped cream – 326 calories

Egg McMuffin - 300 calories
Sausage McMuffin - 370 calories
Breakfast Burrito - 300 calories

Now, to be fair, there are a lot of bad meal planning choices at both places, but if you absolutely have to make the trip in the morning, here are a few choices that won't hurt you once in awhile...

McDonalds
English Muffin with Grape Jam - 195 calories
Scrambled Eggs - 170 calories

Starbucks
Coffee of The Week - 5 calories
Tazo Green Iced Tea - 80 calories

Look guys, it's hard enough to stay away from calories each day...make a conscious effort to start the day off right with a good choice!  Choose some of the better meal planning choices above, shoot for optimum nutrition, and the rest of your day will be a lot easier!
