Just out of curiosity, what does your favourite breakfast consist of?
I love oatmeal with honey, peanut butter, bananas, and sometimes hot chocolate powder. Sometimes when I'm hungry I'll have a slice or a couple slices of toast with butter and jam... is this too much for a breakfast do you think?

    My favourite breakfast is a fry up haha! But my favourite healthy breakfast is wholemeal toast with baked beans and poached egg, plus a glass of orange & a piece of fruit :)

    l honestly don't think that's too much, but jam has quite a bit of sugar (not sure if it's natural sugars or not?) but l'd just eat that in moderation!

    All of my life I hated breakfast, but sometime last year I became so excited about it I had a terrible time deciding each day what to have : P

    I LOVE to eat chocolate malt o meal, with natural (even home made) peanut butter, an ounce of dark chocolate stirred in, a banana on the side and a cup of Bolthouse Farms Perfectly Protein Mocha Cappucchino.

    But it's a lot of calories, so I don't have it unless I'm getting a lot of activity. I miss it : (

    If it's cold - flavoured porridge made with water and with fruit added. If not then 25 g muesli, 10 g bran flakes, mixed with 40 g LF fruit yog, and 40g LF greek yog. Occasionally a boiled egg with 2 slices weight watchers bread and a slice of lean ham heated for 1 min in the microwave so it's like bacon !! YUM !!

    jam is made with fruit and caster sugar which is what preserves it

    I always start my morning with a cup of coffee than I switch off between Irish oatmeal flavored with fat free raspberry syrup; or, cold cereal (all natural wheat puffs) with milk; and lastly, one piece of toast with 1 tblsp spread of nutella. Always looking for add ons as it keeps it interesting and you don't get bored

    Do you like to eat breakfast as the biggest meal of the day? This morning I had a 500 calorie one (oatmeal plus toast) which leaves me 700 for the rest of the day. I heard the saying breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a pauper...

    I used to eat whole rolled oats with water every morning. I went to see a nutritionist who said 'This is good, but do you really like it" if I dont like it, I'm not likely to stick at it. She suggested 100ml of skimmed milk which really doesnt have a lot of kcals and adding fruit and nuts (but only 3-4)

    So now I get up and seriously cant wait for brekkie, I've had it every day for 2months straight now and never get bored.
    40g of Bran Flakes (the lowest in sugar i could find)
    100ml skimmed milk
    5g of pumpkin seeds
    14g of raisins or sultanas
    and 3 brazil nuts
    YUMMEH!

    I kinda agree with this,
    but I lunch like a king lol ... I actually just have my dinner earlier because I get mega hungry midday and then when its time for dinner I'm more peckish than hungry and I dont like to eat too much too late (I work late and sometimes eating right b4 bed is unavoidable)

    I cook some fresh spinach, diced onion, once in a while I will cut up a strip or two of turkey bacon and 1 tbsp of my yummy homeade salsa and mix my 2 egg whited or even one whole egg since the protien is in the yolk and maybe alittle pepper but it deffinitly brings an amazing flavor to your eggs!

    I am usually in a hurry to get out the door in the morning - so boiled eggs, toast with jam, peanut butter on wheat toast...these things work best for me.
