    My breakfast:

    Water
    Apple, blueberries, or blackberries
    2 slices of dry, 100% whole-grain toasted bread each with a slice of 99% fat free turkey breast
    1 fresh tomato
    Hot tea (no milk, no sugar)
    1 capsule of Omega 3

    This way of eating increases my metabolism. Another benefit is that I don’t feel hungry. I know it is not a typical “breakfast food”, but it is a part of my eating style that helped me lose 91 pounds without exercise and without being hungry.

    My breakfast is a little weird.

    handful of fresh green beans
    8 stalks of brocolette
    lightly steamed together

    drizzle flaxseed oil and about 1/3 of oz of feta

    Sometimes I sprinkle lemon juice on top.

    Love it!

    I like to get a fair bit of protein in in the morning - bacon, maybe 2 eggs. I prefer to have a big breakfast and taper off my eating throughout the day. That way I feel much better.

    Coffee! Always coffee. Made in the French press with half & half or whole milk.

    Then, I either fast until lunch or later... or if I'm hungry, it's usually bacon, eggs, English muffin with cream cheese, fruit.

    Scrambled eggs (1 whole egg, 2 egg whites) done in the microwave, with whatever I feel like adding - spinach, mushrooms, cheese, ham...

    My latest find is 2% greek yoghurt - I add berries, flaxseed, nuts and seeds


    Oh, and at least 3 mugs of tea.

    My favorite breakfast is a whole grain muffin halved and toasted topped with grilled salmon, avocado slices, tomato slices and 2 poached eggs!

    Mouth watering!

    Lately I've been eating Luna protein bars for breakfast...

    Hmm.. Peaches and cream oatmeal. I'm a simple gal, like to do things in the microwave. :P

    Or toast and market pantry egg substitute from Target and lots of salsa. It's the only egg substitute that I like.

    Eggo waffle - the whole-grain blueberry kind. :)

    And every now and then, I like to go to IHOP for one of there simple and fit meals with pancakes. Muaha!

    I am a cereal girl.
    I mix ½ cup oats, ½ cup skim milk. 150g low fat low sugar fruit yoghurt . Mix it in a bowl and leave it in the fridge overnight to soak. In the morning I stick it in the microwave for 1 min. I have this at 6.30am and I don’t start to think about food again till about 11am. It is also nice cold in summer.

    Crustless quiche! It lasts us 3 days, ( 6 pieces / 2) just heat up a piece, eat, and go. We wake up around 10am, we own a small business that doesnt open until noon, and we dont usually get back home and eat dinner till midnight, in bed by 2 or 3am. Odd hours, I know.

    But some days I swap the coffee for freshly made juice I make that morning.
