When I got a new job I found that they had hard boiled eggs and bananas in their kitchen, so I began eating one banana and two boiled eggs for breakfast. That's the only lifestyle change I made. About a year later I noticed I had lost a bunch of weight, but I was puzzled as to why, and eventually remembered that one change. I looked it up and found some site online claiming that it is one of the healthiest breakfasts you can eat.

ah yes the cock and balls breakfast

Fiber & protein with a little salt & sugar in there for funsies.

Yes, I also lost a lot of weight since adding eggs on my breakfast. I'm surprised most answers here are for cereal and peanut butter but no eggs.

Eggs are great, but they're not a fast/quick item to me. You can boil them in advance to have them on hand, but sometimes peeling can be annoying.

Oh, depends how you have them. I typically fry them using cooking spray, or soft boil them. Fried they take me 2 minutes. I don't scramble or make them into omelettes ever for breakfast, others in my family who do take at least 15 minutes which feels like an eternity to me.

As I've become older the old "unhealthy" meals of bacon and eggs were not fully bad way to start your day in the sense of protein over carbs and sugars.

The latter leaves one hungry and snacking all day with no way to ever really get full. As much as bacon isn't healthy for us the protein start is better for blood sugars than oatmeal or cereals to break fast.

Well, I'm a morning oatmeal eater and my doctor, who is way too into nutrition ,is happy with it, so ยฏ\_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ

We go over diet & blood tests every year.

I'm going to give that a try, that sounds like a great breakfast now that eggs are back to their normal price
