what do you eat for breakfast?!

cpeltier7

I got a Ninja blender for christmas..I put frozen fruit in with a little splenda and about 2 cups of water..makes about 20 oz. Holds me up for a couple of hours. Then if time allows 1 pack oatmeal an hour before lunch.....My Tummy isn't a morning person either

I usually have NO time to eat in the morning with getting 2 small kids ready and being to work by 8 so, I usually take a banana or apple. I will also mix a weight watchers smoothie and take that along. Surprisingly, the smoothie keeps me super full until I eat lunch. Carrot sticks are a good choice too

6" Whole Wheat Tortilla, 2 Tbsp peanut butter, 1/4 cup of grape nuts cereal

or

1/2 cup Biobest Plain Yogourt, 1/2 cup blueberries, 1/4 cup Ezekiel whole grain sprouted cereal, 1 Tbsp each of sliced almonds and dried cranberries.

Have you tried a smoothy or whey protein or soy protein shakes or powder? They are usually easy on the stomach and a goos souce of protein. Good way to start the day when your stomach says "i don't want to!"

This morning I had oatmeal with 1 tbsp of peanut butter and 1 tbsp of mini chocolate chips. Kept me full till noon.

I have to get up super early for work too, and have a hard time stomaching anything that early. So when I get up, I will have an ounce of cheese or a piece of dark chocolate(!). Then a couple hours later at work (8 or 9) I'll have a boiled egg and fruit or turkey sausage, and coffee.

I usually just eat fresh fruit, whatever is in season. Right now I am into tangerines (32 calories). I usually eat 2 each morning. Today however I am eating a cup of watermelon (46 calories)) and a tangerine. I don't like to eat something heavy for breakfast either, so this satisfies me and is low in calorie intake. :happy:

I have been eating chocolate vitatops. They are delicious and very filling. They are also good as a snack at night heated with vanilla frozen yogurt. It is like eating a molten cake from Chili;s (just a smaller portion)

i had cottage cheese and i mixed in blackberry preserves, and fresh blackberries.

DawnOf1969

Today I had plain oats and added in dried cranberries and chopped pecans.

I like to put a slice of Ezekiel sprouted grain bread in the toasted just to get it soft and warm, then spread 1 tsp of peanut butter on it. I love it with my morning coffee. I'm not much of a breakfast eater, so this works for me.

Protein smoothies are great I do those sometimes... Or boil a couple eggs and have a piece of fruit and yogurt with it. Instant Oatmeal is good too. But I don't eat within an hour of waking up, I have the same issue as yu. Fortunately I can eat at my desk at work so I am usually eating 2-2 1/2 hours after i wake up. Toast with peanut butter and bannana might be good (all natural peanut butter though)... GOOD LUCK

I never used to eat breakfast, a coffee was all i used to have, but i just made myself eat breakfast for a few days, something like poached egg on toast, branflakes or muesli and after a few days or so i started waking up and actually wanted to eat breakfast, now its the first thing i do, put the kettle on and start to make whatever i fancy that morning.

I would say grapefruit is very good. Also I would check out turkey bacon. Great alternative!

I get up at 6am and don't eat breakfast til 9, when I get to work. When I wake up it's all about getting me, my husband and my son out the door to work/grandma's house!

I try to alternate breakfasts cause I get sick of the same thing over and over as well. One week I will have 2 hardboiled eggs and a fruit. Then the next week I will have 2 plain rice cakes (the bigger ones, not the chip size ones) with 1 tablespoon of apple butter on each with a fruit. Special K cereal is also yummy with skim milk! I also like fat free vanilla yogurt with a frozen fruit in it!

If you notice, I always have a fruit with my breakfast. That's because fruit helps keep me full longer and keeps that nauseating feeling at bay!

Im probably the wrong person to answer this because I don't eat until I get to work but I try to eat as soon as possible, so Im not starving, and overeat. Right now I've been eating cereal with soymilk (Im lactose intolerant), eggs and bacon (sometimes on a whole wheat english muffin), and quaker oatmeal.

I say if you want a fried egg, eat it. I sometimes make a fried egg for my huevos rancheros and I just fry it in 1/2 pat of butter. That adds only like 18 calories and 2g fat...but, tastes yummy . And if that's the kinda breakfast you can get down, go for it.

I usually have scrambled eggs w/ spinach or cheese. Fiber One bars I'll eat on days when I'm in a hurry or feel a little sick.

If you have more time, what about huevos rancheros? I make it low cal by just heating up a corn tortilla (about 60 cals), adding a fried egg (again in 1/2 pat butter), a little black beans, lettuce, and salsa. This has lots of protein and comes in at less than 250 cals. And, it doesnt taste super breakfasty if that isn't your thing.

Two hard boiled eggs (smashed with S&P and balsamic vinegar)
2 slices microwave bacon
2 cups of coffee

I feel excatly the same as you in the morning so I make myself a smoothie. Here's my little recipe:

1 c. raw spinach
handful of frozen blueberries
1c. your favorite juice (I use v8 fusion)
1/4 c. non fat yogurt PLAIN
1/2 c. of your favorite frozen fruit (pineapple, mango, rasberries, etc)
1 medium banana
2 tbsp. flax meal *optional

Blend

Makes 2 servings and it's a little over 315 calories, so a little over 150 cals a serving

This smoothie helps with the hunger pains I start feeling around 8am because I had skipped breakfast. If you still can't stomach a smoothie eat a handful of nuts and drink some water and juice on your way to work.

Every morning I eat:

A Vitatop (or a granola bar)
Low Fat String Cheese
Applesauce OR an Orange

I try to make sure to have fruit, protein and a little carb.
Its actually quite easy to eat on the go too, I usually eat the Vitatop on my way to the gym and then the String Cheese right after the gym on my way to work then at work I eat the fruit. It usually fills me up. Then again I cant eat anything heavy in the morning.

For me though Eggs are a no-go. I cannot stand to eat eggs. But for my husband he usually eats a vitatop and a hard boiled egg!

Good luck!

I totally understand your dilemma, I get nausea if I eat too early in the morning too.

I pretty much live and die by cereal for breakfast, and I try to stick to the healthier ones, but I need something a little sweet. Plain bran or Wheaties are a no go for me, but I stick to Special K, Honey Bunches of Oats, or Honey Nut Cheerios. I love eggs and omelette's, but I usually don't have the time to make them. I'm going to try to start eating oatmeal in the mornings now too. We'll see how that goes for me though.

This morning I had a broccoli and cheese frittata. (1 egg, 3 whites, 1/2 serving lite pimento cheese, 50 grams of chopped broccoli). It was SO yummy!

Try cooking some of your breakfast ahead. I chop up mushrooms, green pepper, yellow pepper, and tomato's and sautee ( for the entire week). Then in the morning I use my griddle to cook 1/4 cup egg beater (30 cal) and reheat mixture ( above) that makes a tasty filling omlet for 60-70 cal. Finish with 1 peice Sara Lee 45 calorie bread and 1 peice of turkey bacon (25 cal). You have breakfast for under 200 calories.
