Today I woke up kinda late.. At 7:20 am. My usual is 5:00 am. Every morning I have a bowl of Sugar free Maple & Brown sugar oatmeal with 2 packets of equal. I also had one 90 chocolate chunk granola bar. I drink Ice water all day long with a wedge of lemon squeezed into my drink. At noon i'll have my lunch. I'm not sure what i'll have at lunch time yet. And at 5 pm I have my dinner. I don't eat after 7 pm, and I go to bed around 11 pm.

What has everyone else had ? I'm looking to switch up my breakfast, so i'd like some of YOUR breakfast ideas !

    honestly i stopped eating all cereal except for special k. most mornings i eat either cinnamon pecan or vanilla almond. i go for a walk for 30 minutes to hour. come back home and eat a piece of fruit. sometimes if i am feeling plucky i eat a waffle with no syrup and occasionally just fruit/applesauce/cottage cheese if i know i will eat more calories at lunch or dinner.

    A gluten-free waffle with blueberries and a Tassimo chai-tea latte. I should have had a dairy serving but I'll save it for later. Looking forward to an egg sandwich for lunch!

    I usually have toast or oatmeal for breakfast on weekdays then I do a bigger breakfast (eggs and such) on weekends. Feel free to look at my diary, it is public.

    I had a banana & berry smoothie for breakfast.
    A seed stacked bar and activia peaches & cream yogurt mid morning (and green tea!).
    Tuna salad for lunch, and I've just had a banana. I'll be going home to cook tea soon!

    My breakfast routine is pretty boring:

    eggs and jimmy dean turkey sausage
    Steel cut oats with cinnamon and blueberries added
    Whole grain cereal (nature valley heritage grains)-w/skim milk
    1 slice whole grain toast with 1 tabelspoon peanut butter

    I rotate these items throughout the week....everyonce in a while I will throw in eggo nutrigrain blueberry waffles.

    steel cut oats take a while to cook so I make them on the weekend and heat them up as needed through the week.

    I've started thinking unconventional! I start my morning with Light Cran/Pom juice and a banana. Then I have Cottage Cheese 2% with frozen mango, blueberries sprinkled with egual and cinnamon. It is so yummy! I feel like I'm eating dessert! And it keeps me full until I eat lunch at 1230. Some days I eat hummus and Special K crackers.

    Most mornings for breakfast I have unflavored oatmeal with 1 packet of splenda and some cinnamon. Not so different from you. :) When I'm feeling frisky I'll make a frittata the night before and have 1/6th of it for breakfast the next day. They heat up pretty well. Otherwise I'm not too creative with breakfast.

    I switch between two breakfasts. My goal is about 300 calories with lots of protein.

    Greek yogurt, a nutrigrain eggo waffle, and a piece of fruit.
    Eggbeaters scramble with veggies (spinach and tomatoes) and lowfat cheese and an english muffin.

    I also like to keep frozen burritos on hand for mornings I don't want to deal with it.

    Thomas Light English Muffin with some margerine and 1/2 cup for plain fat free yogurt with a little sugar packet.

    For breakfast I had a whole wheat bagel thin with garden veggie cream cheese, a slice of bologna b/c it ripped in half and I knew my wacky 5 year old son would refuse it.

    After the gym I had a clementine and a chocolate protein shake that I blended with a little bit of strawberry greek yogurt and fresh blueberries.

    For lunch I am having Lentil & Bean Stew.

    For dinner I am making home made Chicken Noodle Soup.

    I eat all day, right up until bedtime! No rules, just try to stay within my goals!

    Oh man, I've eaten a lot today. Woke up at 5:30, had some oat bran with peanut butter and a cup of almond milk with 1/2 scoop protein powder. Ate half a cucumber and a granola bar during my first two classes. Just had lunch - protein smoothie from Smoothie King and another protein bar. Didn't pack my lunch/snacks today like I should have!! Looking forward to a home-cooked dinner later :)

    breakfast includes either whey protein vanilla shake made with blueberries or spinach and fat free milk or like this morning I had a yogurt. Sometimes I have a piece of fruit as well.
    This morning I had my first container of greek yogurt and I snacked on some baby carrots.

    Lunch happens in 90 minutes.

    2 egg omelette with 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese, 5 dates, and 1 cup skim milk

    560 calories, yay.

    **I am having trouble eating all my calories in a day because of a medication I am on, but I take the pill after breakfast so I try to eat a HUGE breakfast.

    I had oatmeal with brown sugar, cinnamon, walnuts, and raisins. I really wanted meat. though. I swear I could've had a good burger for the same amount of cals as that oatmeal. That's it. I'm done with oatmeal forever.

    I was never good at eating breakfast, but it's now become one of my favorites meals of the day. Typically after grocery shopping (because the food is fresh), I'll have a fruit salad with a toasted english muffin. Tuesdays and Thursdays (days I'm in class all day long), I usually have a bowl of FiberOne cereal (I like the honey clusters) and half a banana because I use the other half for my peanut butter & banana sandwich. Weekends I might treat myself to a bowl of oatmeal with fresh fruit and a bit of honey, but I've been working 6:30 A.M.s the last few weeks and just don't have time for more than a granola bar as I walk out the door.

    I had 1 hard boiled egg and some strawberries for breakfast this morning. I usually boil a bunch of eggs the night before, and grab one or two on my way out to work, easy peesy! If I wake up early enough instant oatmeal with splenda is good too! For my snack today, a whole unpeeled apple. As for lunch, not sure on that one right now, not sure on supper either :-).

    right now, lunch is my biggest meal. my goal is to one day: breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince, and dinner like a pauper. hard to do, but worth it...the worst thing is going to bed with a semi-full stomach! right now i am just mastering the multi low-call mini meals.

    b= boiled egg, whole ruby red grapefruit
    s= nonfat plain stoneyfield yogurt, honey, sliced almonds
    l = flatbread bun w/ low cal turkey, thin slice of cheddar, and baby spinach. with 2 cups light veggie progresso soup
    s = fiber plus bar
    d = pollack broiled fish with sweet potato and brussle sprouts
    s = green tea and scoop of PB/some other protein
