Consider opting for steel-cut or large-flake oats rather than quick or instant oats, as instant oats have a higher glycemic index and a greater impact on blood sugar levels. Chia seed pudding: Chia seeds are rich in fiber, omega-3 fatty acids and protein, as well as antioxidants. To boost the flavor and benefits even more, try sprinkling on some healthy herbs and spices, such as cinnamon, nutmeg or ginger. Avocado toast: The egg provides protein, the avocado adds healthy omega-3 fatty acids and the toast is a great option for carbohydrates, especially if one uses a whole grain option. Yogurt parfait: Greek yogurt topped with granola, nuts and berries is another great breakfast idea. This meal contains plenty of high-quality protein from Greek yogurt, healthy fats from the nuts and carbohydrates and fiber from the granola and berries. Breakfast toast: In addition to topping toast with avocado, try a slice or two of whole wheat bread topped with smoked salmon, tomatoes and microgreens or sprouts. This is a great way to add more vitamin- and mineral-rich vegetables to your diet and increase your intake of fiber from the whole wheat bread, plus protein from the smoked salmon.

| 4 Tips for Getting Through a Fitness Challenge | Got my workouts in order BEFORE I started. The most important thing you can do when it comes to fitness challenges is getting your life organized. I made my workouts a priority: I started to consider working out as an appointment with myself. Just like I'd never flake on an meeting for work or a lunch date with a friend, bailing on myself shouldn't be an option either. I learned to stop getting in my own way: Everything we do, every decision we make in life is motivated by something. The hardest part is nailing down what that something really is. I held myself accountable—and so did my squad: That shift didn't make it easy. Had I not told friends what I was doing, I may not have made it through.
