    I love breakfast! I made too much vegetable coconut curry last week, so now I'm trying to finish it asap... So today, I had white rice with the vegetable coconut curry (sweet potato, green beans, carrots, garbanzo beans with my own coconut sauce recipe) at 6:00 AM in the morning and it kept me full until 11:00!

    Tomorrow, I'm having my beloved combo: rice, natto (fermented beans), and toasted nori sheets.

    I LOOVE curry for breakfast. Sadly haven't had any in a while. This morning I had left over "faux" pho. Bone broth topped with mint, basil, Siracha, steak and an egg dropped in rather than noodles. Easy and really tasty.

    Well because the bananas start to smell after a while. I like the smell but not that much. Plus it's breakfast & 2ltrs of smoothie has to go all in one lot for me or I'll be so full I wont be able to drink it all up. Trust me by the end of the day on my HCLF days I end up eating 30 bananas in total. THAT is a lot of nanas

    3/4 cup cheerios, 1/4 cup TJ's high fiber cereal, 1 cup of skim milk and half a banana. The high fiber cereal helps me from getting hungry in another hour. And also I have four cups of water with a lot of ice and some True Lemon crystallized lemon in my water.

    Today it's 2 eggs and a chicken sausage. I would love to be a little more elaborate than that, but I'm lucky to be cooking at all, since we don't have any water right now. >.<

    I like the way you think... I often make myself a french bread, mozzarella and sriracha sandwhich for breakfast. Other times there will be a blueberry pancake with Crystal hot sauce topped with a poached egg. Breakfast is my favorite meal.

    Coffee just fills me up!

    I'm Jealous! I WISH coffee filled me up

    A bowl of fruit loops, I should have stayed with the Special K as the loops aren't staying with me!

    I don't see how you people drink that vile liquid you call coffee... I hate everything about it, the taste and the smell and the coffee breath I seem to encounter much to often! I even hate that Juan Valdez guy..... LoL

    It's good to see that most people are eating healthfully & having enough calories for breakfast.

    My usual is 12 oz of milk + 2 T malted milk powder + 1 serving carnation instant breakfast, a banana, a piece of whole wheat bread + 1.5 T peanut butter. That's just under half my calories for the day.
    I wasn't a breakfast eater, but when I read these studies (below) showing that eating a substantial breakfast and small dinner helps lose more weight (& improves other measures of health), I became a breakfast eater.

    This study compared eating a small breakfast, medium lunch, and large dinner, [200, 500, 700 cal]
    with eating a large breakfast, medium lunch, and small dinner [700, 500, 200 cal].
    "The [large breakfast] group showed greater weight loss and waist circumference reduction ... fasting glucose, insulin [&] triglycerides ... decreased significantly to a greater extent in the [large breakfast] group."
    In addition, hunger was less and satiety was greater.

    "subjects assigned to high caloric intake during breakfast lost significantly more weight than those assigned to high caloric intake during the dinner"

    "data suggest that a low-calorie Mediterranean diet with a higher amount of calories in the first part of the day could establish a greater reduction in fat mass and improved insulin sensitivity than a typical daily diet."
