I have 2 boiled eggs, or a couple of cereal bars. Tesco do kids apple bars that are only 80 calories each and I really like them.0

I am always rushing out the door to the gym, so for me it just two hard-boiled eggs. Not very exciting, but fast and easy and good protein.
On weekends, when I have more time, I'll make up a veggie omlette.0 -
I know cottage cheese isn't for everyone--- but I do 1/2 cup 1% fat cottage cheese and one of those single serving cups of pineapple-120cals and keep me full for a few hours. I eat this almost every morning! Or occaisionally I'll mix it up with 2 poached eggs on one piece of toast.0

Love my breakfast omelet packed with protein 3 egg whites, 1/4 cup of egg beaters (or use 1 whole egg), 1 cup of spinach, 2 TBSP salsa, sprinkling of light cheese, well under 200 calories and very filling. It's my fav!0

Sanitarium Up and Go Liquid Breakfast has about 190 calories and you could also have a yoghurt and a half scoop of protein powder in it and I guarantee you will be really full!0

This morning I made straweberry pancakes, the following mix made 5 pancakes and 95 calories for the whole lot
2 Large egg whites
20 grams fat free Greek yoghurt
10 grams Jordan's jumbo oats blended into a powder/flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
30 grams chopped fresh strawberries
I ate them with some rhubarb yoghurt to sweeten it all up0 -
My favourite is microwave eggs - takes only about 2 mins cooking
Crack 1 or 2 eggs into a microwave safe bowl (I use a round old plastic Tupperware breakfast plate with 2 inch sides) add a splash of low fat milk (up to about 2 tablespoons), grind in a little salt and pepper.
Add about 1 oz low fat cheese cut up small, chopped onion, diced capsicum, mushrooms, tomatoes or any other vegies.
Beat lightly with a fork to mix then put in microwave for about 40-60 seconds, stir then repeat. Be careful not to overcook - it should be like tender scrambled egg.
Serve alone, with some salad or on toast
** Note this is more than 200 calories but very filling0 -
i make a breakfast casserole that gives me breakfast for about 5 days....6-8 eggs, non-fat milk, non-fat sour cream, light shredded cheese and veggies (I like brocolli and mushrooms), this comes out to a little less than 200 calories a serving. Super yummy and gets some good veggies and protein in first thing in the morning.
What a great idea!!! I will have to try that :-)0 -
1/2 cup of reduced sodium 2% milkfat cottage cheese (90 calories)
8 spears of asparagus pan fried with 1 teaspoon of olive oil & Mrs. Dash Italian Blend (about 30 calories for the aspargus & 40 calories for the olive oil)
coffee with cream (40 calories for 2 tablespoons of half and half)
200 calories & very filling
Cereal with milk:
Cheerios are 100 calories per cup, 1% milk is 100 calories per cup, 1/2 banana is 50 calories = 250 calories
Special K w/Strawberries 110 calories per cup + 100 calories for milk = 210 calories + coffee w/half & half = 250 calories
Quaker Breakfast Cookies (Oatmeal Chocolate Chip) = 180 calories + 1/2 cup of 1% milk at 50 calories = 230 calories0 -

Thank you! I could make this work. :-)My favourite is microwave eggs - takes only about 2 mins cooking
Crack 1 or 2 eggs into a microwave safe bowl (I use a round old plastic Tupperware breakfast plate with 2 inch sides) add a splash of low fat milk (up to about 2 tablespoons), grind in a little salt and pepper.

I share the other 1/4 with my daughter! It would be funny if I was just afraid of the whole thingI eat the same thing almost every day:
Thomas's Triple health english muffin: 100 cal
with 1 teaspoon of butter with olive oil:45 calories
3/4 of a fuji apple:50 cal
2 chocolate calcium chews: 30 cal
1 hard boiled egg with 1/2 the yolk:45 calories
i cup of green tea, unsweetened: 0 calories
Total: 270 calories and it really fills me up. I've actually been skipping my morning snack since I added the english muffin. Before that, I was eating just the egg and apple, and I wasn't really full. For the extra 145 calories (including butter), I stay way fuller, way longer.
lol, may I ask why just 3/4 of an apple? Seems like a strange amount0 -
I make a "breakfast bagel" one 100% whole wheat mini bagel, 1 scrambled egg (white only if you perfer), 2 tbsp light shredded cheese ( i like the mexican blend) and two slices of turkey bacon cut in half. Sprinkle the cheese in the cooked egg, place on bagel, top with bacon. This is a delish low cal breakfast that keeps me full for hours. I also eat cream of wheat pretty often.0

I often do a quick protein shake and a handful of mixed nuts - works for me when I'm in a hurry. I also love my hard boiled eggs. They keep in the fridge well and they're relatively cheap and easy.0
