    I make quick cooking oats, with milk and an egg mixed in (mix the whole time it's cooking), with splenda and cinnamon and vanilla. It's kind of like a custard.

    omelet.jpg

    If I have time, then I make a spinach and feta cheese omelet with some cottage cheese. I use 1 whole egg, 3 servings egg beaters (9 T), 3 T feta cheese, and spinach. With the cottage cheese it comes out to around 350 calories, 18g fat, and 40g protein.

    My Body By Vi Shake! LOVE IT! Fast and yummy. One of my favorites is skim milk with tsp coco, & 1 tbs almond butter. Or any kind of fruit added makes a great smoothie! Even good with some instant coffee for a morning wake up!

    I like to mix it up from day to day or I get bored. Yesterday I had a breakfast bar and today I had a weight watchers turkey sausage muffin. I also do smoothies, slim fast, jimmy dean delights breakfast sandwiches, carnation instant breakfast shake or anything else that sounds good. I keep a variety of food at work
  • Scrambled egg whites, with tomato, spinach and mushroom, and a little tiny sprinkle of cheese, plus 2 pieces of low calorie wheat toast. AMAZING! :-)

    Bananas have too many carbs/sugars. My trainer says that 1/2 a banana is 1 serving. Therefore it's best not to eat bananas when trying to loose weight. Try putting some strawberries or blueberries in your cereal/oatment.

    My easy go-to is plain greek yogart with some fruit mixed in. I tend to eat light when I first get up, then after my workout, I will eat more.
    I do a lot of smoothies, with whatever frozen fruit I have on hand. Right now am having cream of wheat with unsweetened applesauce and cinnamon mixed in.
