Healthy Big Breakfast

Who knew you could eat this much food in one meal and stay on plan? I know this wont always bee the case though due to the fact that as I lose weight my daily points allowance will shrink with it. I also know that for me I have to eat bigger breakfasts in order to avoid snacking all day long simply because I have the points to do so. I seem to make more snacky decisions and fill up my points with chips, crackers, and the like. This does not work for me so I have to shoot for breakfasts that are between 8-12 points. Eating these bigger meals in the morning also helps me feel more satisfied and less hungry for the 'junk' snacks. I find that I am more likely to make healthier choices when I am not ravenously hungry. Who would have thought? Here is what I consider a big healthy breakfast:
