Don't wanna use a whole day's worth of calories before lunchtime? Avoid these shocking breakfast bloopers.

	Double Trouble!
	Steer clear of Burger King's Double Croissan'wich with Double Sausage.� This 770-calorie, 63g of fat�breakfast blunder�has twice the sausage and cheese of the already super-fattening regular Sausage Croissan'wich. Why start your day with one of these?� (Unless your goal is to pop the buttons off your pants before lunch.)

Don't Eat-o This Burrito!

�

Del Taco's Macho Bacon & Egg Burrito is a Mexican mess!� It contains an astonishing 1030 calories,�60g of fat and 76 net carbs.� It also weighs a whole POUND! Dios Mio!

�


		BEAT IT! Carl's Jr. Breakfast Burger - We'd like to meet the development executive who thought up THIS disaster. It's a hamburger,�topped with a fried egg, hash browns, bacon & cheese.� And it has 830 calories and 46g fat.� Is this some kind of a joke? (Psssst: it's not funny.) EAT IT!� Satisfying Swap!� If you're daring enough to try this at home, here's what we recommend:� Top a Wonder Light Hamburger Bun with a Boca Burger, a slice of low cal turkey bacon, a small amount of scrambled egg beaters, a Dr.Praeger's broccoli pancake (they're a lot like hash browns) and a slice of fat free cheese.� This creative swap weighs in at around 295 calories and 3g of fat.��That's a lot�better than swallowing the�lard-tastic "meal" Carl is serving up!

More Morning Mishaps...

Jack in the Box Sausage, Egg & Cheese Biscuit��- 970 cal, 68g fat and�50 carbs.

McDonald's Hotcakes (w/2 pats of margarine, syrup) - 600 cal, 17g fat, 102 carbs

Starbucks Caramel Pecan Sticky roll - 730 calories, 40g fat, 75 carbs

Best Bets...

If you're starving and need to pick something up on the way, try these:

Starbucks Vanilla Almond Biscotti:� 110 calories, 5g fat,� 15 carbs
Del Taco Breakfast Burrito: 250 calories, 11g fat,� 23 net carbs
Carl's Jr. Scrambled Eggs (2): 180 calories, 14g fat,� 1 carb
Burger King MOTT'S Strawberry Flavored Applesauce:� 90 calories, 0g fat, 23 carbs
McDonald's Fruit 'n Yogurt Parfait (w/out granola): 130 calories, 2g fat, 25 carbs (with granola; 160 cal, 2g fat, 1 sat., 31 carbs)
