Your favorite low calorie breakfast food?

I love breakfast, and have to have a filling one. My breakfasts are usually 300-400 calories. That helps keep me full longer.

But I can give you at least one idea if you want a lower cal breafast. A deep chocolate vitatop muffin and a glass of milk will be under 200 calories depending on what kind of milk, and how big a glass.

I usually have 1 Tb of peanutbutter on my vitatop, half a banana and 6 oz of 2% milk. I think that is around 350 calories. But you can fix it how you like. You could skip the milk and have tea. Though I am trying to get 3 servings of dairy in everyday to help with my weight loss.

Sometimes I will have 1 egg, 1 slice of toast(sometimes with 1 Tb butter) and a glass of milk. The egg is 70 calories, the toast is 100 or less, the butter is 100 and milk is under 100. Leave out the butter or the milk and it is only 270. Throw in berries or your favorite fruit will help you to be fuller and doesn't add very many calories at all.

I LOVE VITATOPS! I totally never thought to put pb and banana on one either and now I'm stoked. I like mine as dessert wtih a scoop of frozen yogurt and some strawberries or almonds!

Since I've stopped eating oatmeal for breakfast and cut out bread I have lost 6 lb. in three weeks. My new favorite breakfast which I have been having every day for the last three weeks is Fage 0% Fat Free Plain Greek yogurt with a tablespoon of honey, some berries or other mixed fruit and 2 tbs. of wheat germ. The protein in the yogurt keeps me satisfied and the wheat germ gives it a nutritional boost. Give it a try! : )

My latest is low calorie, fast, easy and portable: egg white omelet with just seasoned egg whites (17 cal each) and 1 slice of Orowheat Light Whole Wheat bread (40 cal for 1 slice-it's tiny). I use a dribble of olive oil to fry up the egg whites while the bread is toasting, throw the egg whites on the toast, grab a napkin and run out the door. You can add more to the omelet it if you have time, but my main goal is to get something in my stomach and for it to be something I can take with me while I'm rushing out the door.

I don't do low calories for breakfast. I want dinner to be my lightest meal of the day. On gym days I eat an omelet or scrambled eggs with oven backed home fries. On non gym days oatmeal with dried cranberries, or cereal with almond or rice milk and a piece of fruit.

My trainer said to follow this quote: Breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince, and dinner like a pauper. We should eat according to our metabolism's demands and it's at it's highest in the morning since you've been "fasting" all night long. and it's at it's lowest in the evening because you've been eating all day long.

With that said, I dont always do it. For breakfast this morning I had scrambled eggs, strawberries and almond milk.

Four egg whites, half cup original oatmeal, bananna....put it all in a large glass and mix well.....add 1.5 cups of water and mix well again. In two minutes you have a breakfast shake to go. Thats my favorite breakfast.

I'm just starting today but have a plan to make frozen breakfast sanwhiches. Turkey sausage, 2% cheese, egg substitute on whole wheat english muffins. Very filling. You can make batches up and freeze so they are easy to grab out the door.
