    A hard-boiled egg (I make batches of them in advance) sliced and put on an English muffin with a slice of cheese. Lots of protein and only 240 calories.

    I have recently started having a home made spinach/berry smoothie too help me get an extra serving of veg in;)

    1 cup spinach
    1/4 cup water
    1/2 cup fresh strawberries
    1/4 cup frozen mixed berries
    1/2 banana
    1 package of Stevia
    1 tsp of psyllium fiber powder
    Sometimes I will add a spoonful of 0% Greek yogurt, chia seeds or hemp seeds. It tastes great, it's filling and has loads of nutrient rich foods :) love it!
    Otherwise my old standby is oatmeal with fruit and chia seeds :)

    During the week I have a Vega Whole Food Health Optimizer shake with almond milk and frozen strawberries. On the weekend I'll have plain oatmeal with fruit and a teaspoon of peanut butter.

    Just a bowl of low fat cereal, usually a Dorset Cereals one.

    I only usually have breakfast on days I exercise, and then only after exercise, as I can't eat before.

    My favorite breakfast is a Dempsters BodyWise Bagel and 2 tbsp of Philly Light Cream Cheese with a Coffee.

    Only 200 calories, and I can dine and dash to where ever I need to be in the morning or sit on the couch and slowly sip my coffee if there is time.

    I am such a creature of habit - I've had the same breakfast M-F for as long as I can remember. I pop the milk in the microwave to warm up and ta-da - a quick and easy breakfast!

    1 cup oats
    1 cup 1% milk

    It is 400 calories and keeps me full until lunchtime.
  • One egg - "poached" in the microwave.
    1/2 slice of American cheese
    Oroweat Double Fiber - Whole Wheat English Muffins

    like a healthy Egg McMuffin - but MUCH healthier!

    277 calories and carries me to lunch with no snacking

    a wheat english muffin/mini bagel/piece of toast with 1-2 tbsp. of peanut butter, half a glass of milk or juice, a banana, and 6 oz. yogurt.

    alternatives include oatmeal and cold cereal, but i'm usually all about some type of bread and pb!
