    I have porridge (rolled oats) mixed with skimmed milk and water - microwaved for 1.5 -2 mins. A sprinkle of artificial sweetner (I can live with that it's only a bit!) and a good dollop of probiotic yogurt that has a fruit compote incorporated into it. Keeps me pretty full during the morning. As you seem to have a really early start to your day (if I had your schedule, I think I'd be starving again by 8am) so perhaps carry some fruit and some almonds with you for later in the morning?

    I was happy to recently find out that breakfast isn't really the most important meal of the day since I'm not really a big breakfast person.

    I usually hold off until 9-10 am and just have maybe some Greek yogurt or cottage cheese.
    Today I'm sick and miserable so I actually ate oatmeal (with brown sugar and butter) and 2 pieces of wheat toast.

    I eat oatmeal for breakfast or a croissant but if you need more protein, add a scoop of whey or casein. :smile:

    Zoats with roasted coconut, chia seeds, a superfood mix with more seeds, cinnamon & a drizzle of honey on top (300ish calories). On days when I want lower carbs, I have scrambled eggs with a low fat burger.

    I'm up at 5:30 am and have very little time to eat breakfast. My recent go to is a whole wheat English muffin, 2 egg whites, a slice of Canadian bacon and a slice of low fat American cheese. I know the bacon and cheese aren't great, and can do oatmeal, but can't eat without some kind of sugar. Protein is a necessity because I get too hungry if I don't get some. Remember- whatever it is, I have to be able to prepare quickly.

    I am a yogurt eater. Just found stonyfid 0% greek,,,, it has 23 grams of protein per cup. I add fruit and I'm done. I do aim but they also have a vanilla that tastes better

    I usually eat oatmeal with fresh blueberries, a splash of vanilla extract and some cinnamon. Sometimes I'll eat Siggi plain yogurt with fresh berries and Bear Naked original cinnamon granola

    I just finished prepping my work week's breakfasts & lunches. All the breakfasts are the same. Rolled oats, chopped walnuts, raisins, a pinch of cinnamon and sweetener. They are bagged up and will go to the office with me. I don't eat them until later in the morning. Sometimes I will swap out the type of nut or fruit for the week.

    I have an electric pressure cooker and I cook one pound of dry beans in six cups of water with 1 - 2 tablespoons salt. I eat one cup cooked which is actually 2 servings. It is 180 - 240 calories for that 2 servings. I drink 2 cups, 16 oz, hot tea sweetened with a teaspoon of lemon juice and stevia or Splenda. I take a Flinstones chewable.

    The 1 lb of dry beans is enough for 12 servings or 6 servings if you double the portion even though the package says 13 or 14 servings. I switch between pinto, kidney, lima, navy or northern, split peas, lentils, turtle or black, and black eyed peas to keep from getting bored with the flavor of one variety.

    They are filling, high protein, high carbs, high fiber, and zero fat and that prepares my right for not overeating the rest of the day.

    I store them using an air tight Tupperware style container in a fridge that is kept as cold as it can keep without freezing any of the contents. Because cold air sinks that means to keep things in the crisper and bottom shelfs from freezing you'll need the temperature a bit higher on the top shelves so organize accordingly. Because I eat beans for lunch too I am done with a pound in 3 days but they will keep 6 days refrigerated too.
