I need some quick low calorie breakfast ideas!

on high carb. mornings I start out with a serving of Honey Bunches of Oats, 6 oz. of yogurt, blueberries and craisens0

Go continental.0

pad thai!
By which I mean, why think only of "breakfast foods"? Just 'cause it's morning doesn't mean you can't have fish or salad or whatever.0 -
breakfast on the go, very filling0

My go-to breakfast is:
100g Low-fat yoghurt (I love Rachel's Organic Rhubarb)
1 c. blueberries
25g granola (Tesco Nut Granola)0 -
overnight oats. Make them the night before, I use 40grm of oats, 100 mls of almond milk and halfl a teaspoon of cinnamon. Stick it all in a bowl, mix it up and pop it in the fridge til morning. About 170 cals.
Sometimes I add raisins, or chopped apple (add that in the morning)0 -
-I love 1 c cheerios with 1/2 c skim milk and some fruit (1/2 c berries, 1 banana, fresh peach, or 1/4 c craisins if I don't have fresh fruit). It's about 220 calories, more or less depending on the fruit.
-Also Frosted Mini Wheats, 1 c + 1/2 c skim milk is about 250 calories (or plain shredded wheat with fruit).
-Instant oatmeal is less than 200 calories per packet. I often add 1-2 Tbsp powdered milk before stirring in the water. 1min in the microwave
-Boil eggs in advance and keep them in the fridge. 2 eggs are about 150 calories. Grab a Greek 100 Yoplait and you are at 250.
If you're following "clean eating" or Paleo, these may not fit your ideals. But if you're going from a SlimFast shake, they are good alternatives0 -

Can do this with greek yogurt instead of the milk too for more protein.0 -
The OP has had 3 years to figure out what to eat for breakfast, so it's probably not helping at this point.0

Doh! I hate it when I miss that it's a lazarus thread0 -
It may be a three year old thread, but the information is still good to have!
My personal favorites for busy weekday mornings include:
1 frozen waffle with TBSP peanut butter
Rice cake with peanut butter
Hardboiled egg w/ piece of fruit
Greek yogurt w/ 2x protein
Cream of wheat packet for a warm breakfast
Alternative bagel w/ cream cheese
Cottage cheese with cherry tomatoes (favorite!)
For weekends I like 3 pieces of Canadian bacon with 6 TBSP of liquid eggs cooked up and topped with a TBSP of fresh salsa.0 -
Mix one cup of greek yogurt, one tablespoon of peanut butter and one packet of stevia in the raw-wonderful high protein mix that is 235 calories. Great for a boost of protein to keep you full!0
