Q: Rinse thoroughly to get rid of soap residue. Dry your hands with a towel (since paper towels or toilet paper may leave pieces behind) or, if possible, an air dryer. Any residue from soaps, lotions, or chemicals may stick to your contact lenses and cause irritation, pain, or blurred vision. Contacts stick best to wet surfaces. You may find that if you clean your hands, but leave your fingers slightly wet, the contact will stick to your finger more easily. Unless the prescription is the same for both, remember to check whether it's for your right or left eye. Leave the other side of the contact case shut, for now, so that dust and particulate matter don't contaminate the contact solution. If you place the wrong contact in the wrong eye, you may not be able to see well, and you may experience pain. If your left- and right-eye prescriptions differ significantly, you'll be able to tell when you put the wrong contact in. (Handle with care, or you may damage or invert the lens.) Make sure that the contact is sitting hollow-side up on your fingertip with none of the side walls sticking to your skin. Make sure to handle the lens on the skin of your finger, not the nail of your fingertip. It might be easier if you put a little bit of solution on your finger where you intend on holding the contact lens. If it's a soft contact lens, make sure that it isn't inside-out. It sounds obvious, but sometimes it's difficult to tell. The contact should be a perfectly concave cup, sloping up evenly to the rim on all sides. If the slope isn't even, then the lens may be inside-out. While it's still on your finger, inspect lens for rips, tears, or debris. If dust or debris is visible, rinse with lens solution before putting it into your eye. Use the index finger of your opposite hand to pull your upper eyelid upward; use the middle finger of your dominant hand (i.e. the one with the contact on it) to pull your lower eyelid downward. As you become more experienced, you'll be able to do this just by pulling down your lower eyelid. Try not to blink or move jerkily. It may help to look upwards. It's also advised to not focus the eye that you're putting the contact into; this will make it easier to place the lens. When first starting out it may be easier to place the lens on the white part of the eye than over the iris. The white of the eye is less sensitive and less prone to cause flinching. Let go of the skin around your eye and softly close your eye and look all around to center the lens. Take note of any pain or discomfort you may have. If you think that something may be wrong with your contact, remove and fully cleanse it, then try again. You may need to keep your eye squeezed shut for several seconds to allow the contact to stabilize. If you can activate your tear ducts, however slightly, the natural lubrication will make the process smoother. Cup your hand underneath your eye in case the contact falls out. If the contact falls out of your eye, don't worry this is very common at first. Clean the lens with solution and keep trying until you get it right. When finished, pour any contact solution from the case into the sink. This is the best time to rinse the contact lens case and let it air dry with the lid off. Try keeping your contacts in for just a few hours at a time at first. Your eyes may dry out quickly until they're used to the lenses. If your eyes begin to hurt, take out the contacts and give your eyes a few hours to rest.
A: Wash your hands with soap. Remove one contact from its case. Place the contact on the index finger you're most comfortable with using. Pull your skin away from your eye. Move the contact towards your eye calmly and steadily. Place the contact on your eye. Blink slowly so as to not dislodge the contact. Repeat the process with the other contact.

Q: Perhaps the best step you can take to help get in the habit of eating breakfast is making it the night before. One easy, healthy option is making oatmeal in the evening. In the morning, you can eat it cold or reheat it. Mix in nuts, fruit, or a handful of raisins and a bit of cinnamon. Oats are a great breakfast food, as they are high in fiber and will keep you feeling full well into your day. Whole grain muffins are another good quick grab-and-go option. Make a big batch to last you through the week - and even longer if you freeze some. You can even do the prep work for a quick omelet ahead of time by whisking the eggs and chopping the veggies ahead of time and storing them in the fridge overnight. Whether you prefer to change up your breakfast day to to day or eat the same thing everyday, planning ahead will help you establish a routine. If you like to vary your meals, make a weekly plan so you can get everything you need and have it at the house. If you know you like to eat the same thing every day, stock up on what you need. For instance, have a backup tub of Greek yogurt and an extra bag of granola on hand in case your current supply runs out. For those days when you do wind up running a bit behind, store food at work so you don't have to go without breakfast. Definitely store a few items with stable shelf life in your desk or locker. Good options include a jar of peanut butter, protein bars, and dried fruit. If you have access to a refrigerator, consider storing protein shakes and cheese sticks in it.
A:
Prepare your breakfast the night before. Plan a week's worth of breakfasts. Stash breakfast-y snacks at work.
