    I wake at 3 and don't eat until around 10ish, so sometimes it's breakfast foods, (oats with nuts and fresh fruit or eggs with meat and cheese), sometimes its more a brunch type snack, (hummus with pita's and grilled chicken etc). It doesn't matter what you eat, so eat what you like.

    My go-to breakfasts:

    An egg sandwich (1 egg + 1 egg white, cheese, center cut bacon) on toast or an English muffin.

    Greek yogurt with berries and granola.

    Shredded wheat with berries and milk.

    A granny smith apple with cheddar cheese (or peanut butter) and a glass of milk.

    It is super quick because you're just heating the potatoes up. In a nice hot pan I can have breakfast ready in 5-7 minutes. The 2 eggs(140), potato(70), butter(51), fruit(pear, 57), and benefiber(15) is usually around 330 calories, give or take a few calories depending on which fruit I have.

    Those must be some tiny pears and potatoes..

    I weigh out the food. 100g for the pear, and 95g for the potato. I'm just using what the database is giving me.

    I do a chocolate Premier Protein shake from Costco 160 calories and 30 grams of protein and one ounce of walnuts. Sometimes I add a piece of fruit with that depends upon what I have in the house. Fills me up. It's easy to eat in the car on the way to work and it help me reach my high protein goals.

    Been shopping today and stocked up with a few of the suggested items like Greek yoghurt, muffins and pitta breads for quick and easy through the week. Def having eggs and lean bacon tomorrow though as a Sunday treat. I know someone suggested pre cooking the scrambled egg the night before so might try that as well for a weekday (never thought of it before )
    Thanks for all the replies. Really helps keep you focused when there's so much support.

    I always seem to struggle with what to eat first thing. As long as coffee goes with it, any suggestions?

    During the week Porridge with Skimmed milk and good coffee

    At the weekend, well this morning I had 2 97% meat sausages, 2 medium poached eggs, 3 rashers of smoked back bacon and half an avocado

    and good coffee

    Oatmeal is ok, and very good for fiber, but I really like making a bigger dent in my protein and fat macros in the morning.

    I am not a morning eater, so I generally have my coffee (iced) and 1/2 lf graham cracker with 1 tsp whipped peanut butter -- less than 60 calories. I then toss a bag of apple slices in my bag in case I get hungry later; if not it can be an afternoon snack or part of my lunch.

    I've been eating this most mornings and its so yummy. I make four or so jars at a time and just grab one and take it to work if I'm running late.

    I subbed leftover cooked brown rice for half of the oats and it was really good that way. I also prefer rolled oats to steel-cut. Oh - and I don't do jam. I just thrown in fresh fruit and maple syrup or stevia.
