With the new year approaching, we are excited about the idea of a fresh start! Whether you’ve been disciplined with your WW diet or feel like you’ve been slacking a bit, the new year is the perfect opportunity to get back into it. It is often easy to slip into older habits during the holidays since there are tons of yummy, comforting foods that aren’t necessarily the healthiest. However, after the new year, you have the freedom and chance to start each day on the right foot to feel motivated, staying on track during lunch and dinner, too.
When your breakfast is high in points, it can be discouraging because you have to watch what you eat for the rest of the day. However, plenty of delicious and low-point options are available that allow you to enjoy a satisfying breakfast and still have room for other exciting foods later in the day! We have a list of 12 different recipes here that won’t break your point bank, and they range from sweet breakfasts like pancakes and parfaits to savory options like breakfast casseroles or omelettes; enjoy!
