    I am at maintenance and mix it up a lot, but when I was losing weight Chobani Greek yogurt with fruit on the bottom (Strawberry, Blueberry are two of my faves) and a boiled egg. About 230 calories (depending on the size of the egg) and the protein is very satiating.

    M-F it's usually a protein shake and a slice of toast with peanut butter.
    On the weekends, I usually have oatmeal, eggs/bacon/toast, french toast, pancakes, or we head out for breakfast!

    Oatmeal. Best I have found. Since I had a coupon, I got those Quaker Pouches that are 110 calories. Then I add some nuts or raisins to bulk it up. It keeps me going until lunch!

    What do you consider low calorie? That's a pretty subjective description...

    M - F I usually have a breakfast shake because I'm pressed for time. I throw some spinach or kale in the shakes to get some phytonutrients in there too. They're yummy, 20+ oz and usually only ~350 calories! :)

    In that case, see my breakfast from today and divide by two. I ate it as brunch after the gym which is why it's 620 calories, Normally this would be A WRAP and not 2 :P

    Wrap + 2 scrambled eggs in a pat of butter + light processed cheese + 2 slices of ham = delicous and filling breakfast with excellent macros. Pair with fruit if you want.

    I got this microwave egg cooker off amazon.com and I can cook an egg in the microwave in one minute. It takes me a total of three minutes to make a homemade egg muffin sandwich which I can eat in the car on the way to work

    I use a glass 1C Pyrex storage container, it's the perfect size for them. I coat the bottom with a little olive oil on a paper towel and my egg is ready before my english muffin is :P

    I really find having a weetabix sorts me out for a good few hours, also scrambled eggs are quite filling with grilled tomatoes - hope that helps

    Same thing everyday...it never gets old.

    Old fashioned oatmeal (no packaged stuff!) with fresh or frozen blueberries and cinnamon, scrambled eggs with salsa, coffee and water.

    I buy the whole rolled oats in the bulk section of the grocery store. Much cheaper than buying Quaker oats.

    Edit: If I have time I'll also steam some broccoli or sauté some spinach in olive oil and garlic. Need those greens!

    Oh I never though of that. What a great idea! The cooker was only 4 dollars though, but if it is dirty or I need to make more than one at a time I know what to do.

    ( replying to post above about using Pyrex for cooking egg in microwave ):smile:

    My diary is open, so you can take a peek if you need ideas.

    Lately, I've been eating gluten free oatmeal with blackstrap molasses, ginger, cinnamon, and cloves. I add a chopped up apple.

    I am a big cereal person.

    Sometimes I do a protein smoothie. A scoop of protein powder, frozen berries, and unsweetened almond milk. It's filling and delicious!
