    Today was a run day, so breakfast was oatmeal with honey, walnuts, bananas (sometimes peaches, berries, etc), cinnamon, tossed in some protein powder, and half & half. Usually I add plain Greek yogurt but I'm out! :grumble: Not sure how I let that happen.... LOL

    Just like most days.
    One slice of whole wheat bread, toasted
    3 slices of Canadian Bacon
    Large glass of skim milk

    A couple of hours later, a couple of servings of fruit, today it was about a cup of grapes.

    I just came across this informative paper about having your highest caloric intake in the morning:

    http://genetics.doctorsonly.co.il/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Jakubowicz-at-al-Obesity-2013-oby20460.pdf

    So on a 1200-calorie diet, I'm now going to eat about 500 calories for breakfast, 400 calories for lunch and daytime snack, and 300 calories for dinner and evening snack.

    This morning I had: half a cup (before cooking) of plain 5-grain hot cereal with a raw peach cut up in it, one salt-free brown rice cake with a (measured) tablespoon of peanut butter, one hard boiled egg (no salt) and 9 ripe raw cherries. And black coffee.

    I feel so full, it's great!

    For breakfast I alternate between a smoothie or yogurt with fruit.

    Smoothie:
    1 banana
    1/2 cup of frozen strawberries
    1 scoop of vega one nutrition shake powder
    POM pomegranate juice
    Water

    1 serving of Liberte plain yogurt (either Greek or probiotic yogurt), sliced strawberries, blueberries and 2 tablespoons of Qia superfood buckwheat, hemp and chia dry cereal.

    The main thing is to make sure you have a nutritious breakfast and to get enough protein to kick start your metabolism for the day!
