This Could Help All of Us :-)

Was just wondering what everyone had for breakfast this morning. Hopefully this post will give everyone some great new breakfast ideas and also help me get back up after my recent setback.

1/2 Grapefruit
1 FiberPlus Antioxidants Chewy Bar
(Dark Chocolate Almond)
1 Bottle of water

Refisblind

1 cup of Egg whites
2 links of Turkey Sausage
2 cups of Skim Milk

Eat this almost every morning. Takes about 5 minutes to put together and great source of protein to start my day off.
I used to eat the FiberPlus bars that you did but made me gassy.

I had a protein shake after my workout this morn...
8 oz fat-free milk, 1 scoop whey protein, half a banana and a handful of ice. Feels like a treat!

Hi!

I had porridge with skimmed milk, chopped up half an apple and sprinkled cinnamon over the top!

Cinnamon is great as an alternative to sugar as it sweetens, but contains no calories and actually aids weight loss!

Great huh?

Schwiggity

3 eggs, 1 cup spinach, 4 oz. mushrooms, 1 oz. raw almonds, and a medium apple.

Hi -

I tend to always go towards homemade smoothies for breakfast. I live in the desert and it is HOT by 7am, so cool hydrating foods are a must.

My favorite smoothie:

8 oz Westsoy unsweetened organic soymilk
3/4 cup frozen blueberries
1/2 medium banana
1 T ground flaxseed (for some fat and fiber)
few chunks of frozen mango, strawberries or another fruit if I have it.

Whirl in blender!

Patch1981

3/4 cup whole milk [I know it has a lot of fat, but I can't stand the taste of 2% or skim]
1 scoop whey protein [deluxe chocolate flavor]
1/2 banana
1/4 cup blueberries
Blend it all.

2 minutes prep time, and top it off with a multivitamin and glass of orange juice.

I usually have a non-fat yogurt or hard-boiled egg and a piece of fruit and a cup of chai with almond milk.
Somtimes I'll have oatmeal with shoyu and a teaspoon of light butter, but not often.
Less often I will have a piece of toast or wasa bread with peanut butter and fruit.
Good luck!

This morning I had a half cup of egg beaters and some copied asparagus made into an omelet

JMCade

I had kashi go lean cereal with skim milk and I added a mini box of raisins and a packet of splenda to it. Then of course coffee, splends and sugar free creamer. I CANNOT go without coffe EVER!!!:drinker:

Reykur

1 cup plain yogurt
3 strawberrys sliced
1/4 c oatmeal

all mixed together

AHealthierRhonda

Nature's Promise multi grain bread, toasted and very lightly buttered
1/3 of a granny smith apple
Crystal Light to go metabolism boosting green tea (mixed into 7 cups of water)

I'm not a morning eater and usually eat along with my daycare kids, as long as it's healthy which it normally is.

I have the same 'starter' every morning - whey protein and psyllium fibre. Gak. A necessary evil for IBS sufferers. To me, it's 140 cals of medicine, so I usually have something else too...sometimes I make muffins the night before - either blueberry or zucchini with multigrain flour a la HungryGirl style, or a breakfast burrito at McD's for a treat.

LorinaLynn

Asiago Cheese bagel and a can of Pepsi Max. :blushing:

And that's a very typical breakfast for me. Sometimes an English Muffin with Nutella. Sometimes cereal. But mostly bagels. And it works for me, so if it ain't broke...

I had:

1 Cinnamon Raison Bagel Thin
2 tbsp light cream cheese
24 oz. ice water

cardbucfan

Coffee with splenda
Thomas light English muffin with 1 T almond butter (usually have bread but I'm out of my bread)
water
eat the above pre-workout and the following after the workout

1/2 cup egg whites scrambled
2 slices low sodium Oscar Meyer turkey bacon
water

I pretty much eat this every day. The variable is the breakfast meat-sometimes I'll have 4 pieces Canadian Bacon or 2 pre-cooked JImmy Dean turkey sausage patties.

cmriverside

2 eggs scrambled with 1/2 oz cheddar (or other cheese)
1 slice wheat toast with coconut oil
1/2 orange

RissaDean

homemade breakfast taco (221 cal):

1 la bandarita rica tortilla (cheapest and best tortillas I've ever found!)
1 scrambled egg (with cumin and chile powder)
1/2 oz Owens sausage
1/4 oz monterey jack cheese

I made 4 of these last night in about 30 minutes (including cleanup) and then wrapped them individually in foil. This AM while I was drying my hair, I popped one in the oven - still in the foil - and it came out delicious

Random cheese note - if you LOVE cheese like I do, try using the tiny/super fine side of your box grater. It make the cheese super fluffy, and you end up not using as much. Also it melts faster into whatever you're adding it to.

A few Sundays back. I wanted some scrambled eggs, not the typical weekend cheerios.... and I also wanted some toast to go with it. In the past, I would have had 3 full scrambled eggs with cheddar cheese & 2 or 3 buttered white toast slices. When I checked MFP for calories, I was horrified! It was way over the typical 310 calories for my typical 2cups of cheerios with 1 cup of 1% milk. Instead, I used MFP to calculate as egg breakfast of reasonable caloric content...
- 1 egg (with yolk for color & flavor, need it, sorry...)
- 2 eggs (just the whites)
- 1 table spoon of romano cheese
- 2 whole wheat slices (lightly buttered)

And guess what? It was actually less calories (approx 292), than my typical boring cheerios, it tasted great, and was very satisfying - awesome !!!!

Just goes to show you knowledge is truly power & less filling !!!

Bristle82

I had 50g of crunchy oat clusters with tropical fruit
100ml semi skimmed milk
and a cup of tea

onmywaytoskinny155

1 oz of Swiss cheese and 2 cups of chocolate milk

This is a favorite of mine, 1/3 cup Egg Beaters to make an omelet. Then I break up one slice of pepper jack cheese in it for some kick. Along with this a 16 oz bottle of water or cup of coffee with almond milk. Keeps me filled for quite awhile
