    Why are you eating if you're not hungry? That's the hardest thing I've overcome. I attribute eating to when I wasn't hungry to pretty much all of my weight gain.

    I eat whether I am hungry or not, because I need to fuel my body!!

    Either: one whole egg scrambled with 1/4 c. egg whites and one slice ultra thin cheese on top plus a low fat nutrigrain waffle with a T. Almond butter and fresh fruit on top (strawberries, blueberries, bananas)
    OR
    I make a "pancake" with 1/2 a mashed banana, 1/4 c. Egg whites, and 1/4 c. Oatmeal (and a dash of cinnamon) with almond butter and sliced fruit on top

    One of my favorite breakfasts is sweet potato hash with peppers and onions. Normally I have an egg or two on top of it.

    Lately muesli and almond milk. Nice and chewy.
    If I'm not hungry it's because I ate a lot at night--for me not a good sign.
    I used to have egg and toast. It would keep me until noon.
    Sometimes I'd make a veggie omelet.

    stay away from bagels, it's not a good morning choice because the carbs will quikcly burn off leaving you with low energy and hungry again (fyi a bagel is the equivalent of 5 pieces of bread). at breakfast it is really important to make sure you eat protein to get you moving and keep you full until lunch. instead try...

    smoothie : 1 cup frozen strawberries, 1 cup other fruit of your choice (blueberries, mango, pineapple, banana), 1 cup of greek yogurt, 1/4-1/2 cup of milk or almond/coconut/flaxseed milk. blend and enjoy

    yogurt parfait: one cup greek yogurt (make sure you get no sugar added), fresh chopped fruit, sliced almonds, and a dash of honey

    eggs and toast: 2 fried of scrambled eggs and a piece of whole wheat, whole grain toast. look for a bread with low sugar content, a decent amount of fiber and ingredients you can pronounce

    peanut butter and toast: two pieces of whole wheat toast with peanut butter. when you buy peanut butter again make sure you get sugar free and there are no other added ingredients. all peanut butter should be is peanuts. if there are other ingredients, it's probably not a great brand. you can top the pb with banana slices to make it more exciting.

    omelette: lightly saute some veggies in olive or coconut oil - i like kale, red peppers, and tomatoes. pour two eggs over and cook through.

    two hard boiled eggs and a string cheese is great for busy mornings, just grab at go. oatmeal packets are another easy solution if you have to eat at work or don't have much time. i like to add some blueberries and almonds to my oatmeal to keep me fuller for longer.

    remember - PROTEIN!! Aim for at least 15 grams of protein at breakfast, if not more.

    Thanx for reminding me about peanut butter, good toasted bread and bananas for breakfast.
    I am sick of eggs, and now am doing muesli and almond milk.
    When I get sick of that I'll need another choice. I just hope I can keep my mitts off the peanut butter jar late at night. Sigh.

    I usually have what I call my "breakfast triad". I pick one from each category.

    Grains (cereal, toast,1/2 bagel,rice cakes)

    Dairy(skim milk, low fat yogurt,low fat cottage cheese)

    Fruit (apple, raisins, bananas, sometimes peaches)

    Tastes good, keeps me for 3hrs, which is when I make and eat lunch with my kids.

    If I have no time (which is the case 90% of the time):
    - Kashi Toasted Berry Cereal, 3/4 cup (51 g)
    - Skim milk, 3/4 cup

    The Kashi cereal is the best darn cereal I've ever had. Try it if you can, I promise you won't be disappointed.

    If I have the time:
    - 2 eggs
    - 1 cup diced onions
    - 1 cup peppers (green, red, yellow mix)
    - 2 tablespoons Pace salsa

    The BEST eggs in the world.

    A book, a speech and a few veggies. Radishes and cucumbers go well together.

    During the school year I make a protein shake with protein powder, almond milk, kale, and banana and take it to work with me, or I bring pre-made chia pudding. On weekends and in the summer, I make egg concoctions. Lately my favorite thing has been one slice of multi-grain toast topped with kimchi and a sliced hard boiled egg.

    Currently, since it's summer break for me (teacher) it's a cheese string and a piece of fruit before my run.
    Then I usually come home and have something more filling before I hit the gym, this week it was a poached egg over a slice of toast and two pieces of turkey bacon. I tried eating a hard boiled egg and almost yacked. Just to clarify, I'm not going straight to the gym after eating . . . but the lifting I've been doing resulted in light headedness and feeling weak if I didn't eat something more substantial that wasn't burned off during my run.
    My sister does this neat thing with oatmeal where she puts it in the fridge over night with milk and fruit. It smells delicious.
