I had a mini plain bagel with fat free cream cheese, about half a serving, this morning. Bagel is 100 cals and I believe 1/2 a serving of the cream cheese is 40 cals....that and a glass of milk. I'm full!
Edit: 1 tbsp (1/2 serving of ff cream chesse) is 15 cals!!! yay!!0 -
Eggs. I eat 2 whole eggs every morning. Yes you can eat the yolks. They have determind that eating the yolk is good for you. Tons of new studies out there. It is chalked full of nutrition. Plus the protien is harder to digest so it keeps you full longer.
I usually will dice some bell peppers and onions very fine. Spray the bottom of a skillet and cook the veggies, then pore eggs over top and cook. Very yummy and filling.0 -
Cereal: I usually eat Fiber One Honey Clusters! You only need a cup, they are really filling.
Other than that I eat:
Smoothie (1 c milk, 1 c strawberries, 1 yogurt)
Weight control oatmeal
Protein shake
Eggs with toast
Sometimes pancakes, when I know I have a hard workout later i don't feel guilty eating them:blushing:0 -
Cottage cheese (if you add splenda to it, it's kinda sweet and not as sour! :happy: )
I also like a whole grain english muffin with some whipped cottage cheese on top of it. Yum!
Oatmeal is good...you could add splenda and cinnimon.0 -

1 slice reduced fat american cheese

As fall and winter approach I like hot oatmeal. I eat McCann's Quick Cooking Irsh Oatmeal. It has no sugar and no sodium, and it has 4 grams of fiber per serving. I add fresh or frozen berries for a very healthy breaksfast.0

Try a smoothie:
4 Fresh strawberries
1/4 Fresh pineapple
1 Kiwi
Low fat yogurt
Low fat milk
Pumpkin seeds
Flaxseed rich in omega-3.
Put the contents into a blender with a few ice cubes.0 -

I can understand avoiding very sugary foods. But carbs and portein are the building blocks of any healthy meal (breakfast included). Stick to all natural cereals with skim milk. Eggs are great, if you can't have the cholesterol try egg beaters or just using the whites. Fresh fruit and yogurt are an awesome option if you're on the go. Sometimes I even opt for pancakes, served with fresh fruit. You really can't avoid carbs AND protein, and you shouldn't try to. You need plenty of both at breakfast.0

Being a Diabetic, I'm only allowed 3 eggs per week due to their high protien level :sad:0 -
Special K is a cereal option... the rest I know are high protein.
Wheat bagels
french toast?
I don't know I like protein in the morning... sorry I can't think of anything else.0 -
that is very interesting that you were told to limit your protein as a diabetic- normally you want to learn how your body responds to carbs and then work on regulating your blood sugars from there- have you ever consulted with a diabetic educator in your community or nutritionist?? It would probably be well worth your while and if you are diabetic, insurance will most likely pay for it!0

Buckwheat and brown rice cake with a schmear of natural peanut butter - protein, good fats, whole grain carbs... and delish!!! Under 140 calories, and gives me great energy!

All hail the the soup nazi! This is my favorite breakfast. I use 2 eggs but only 1 yolk and make 2 sandwhiches...one for my chunkymunkyhubby (i can call him that cuz he pays our daughter to sneak him in chunky monkey every nite!)0 -

oooh I am going to try that, yummy:drinker:0 -
I'm simple, I eat the high fiber cinamon swirl quaker oatmeal. it's the best. i feel full esp with a bottle of water and i'm normally good til my first break. you can look it up in the food diary to see all the "stuff" that's in it. i know its 10g of fiber and 160 cals. which isn't to bad.0

Oatmeal! So good for you and high in fiber. Quaker makes a "weight control" kind that is extra high in fiber, and they also make a lower sugar kind, which tastes just as good. And instead of just adding water, I like to add skim milk to make it a little creamier.0
