    breakfast is my favorite meal! i believe it's pretty important to eat it as well.

    1. oatmeal topped with cinnamon and fresh fruit (strawberries or bananas)
    2. whole wheat english muffin with cooked egg whites and raw spinach (maybe a little cheese too).
    3. Chobani greek yogurt-apple cinnamon flavor is the best, topped with granola and maybe fruit.

    I eat a granola bar and some kind of fruit or cheese, but I would love to have McDonalds breakfast every day. I love McDonalds breakfast!

    I wake up at 7am. I eat breakfast at 10am.

    Quaker oat so simple porridge ,,,preferably the sultana, raisin and cranberry flavour, with semi skimmed milk and a cup of coffee....or 2, although I am trying to reduce the coffee, as I want to try to flatten my tummy a bit.

    I have a cookbook also that recommends a mixture of oats, pecans, flax oil, honey lemon and yoghurt ...and that's quite nice too :)

    Favorite meal Bacon, eggs, hashbrowns, beans, toast...I have this maybe once a month, and call it "my trucker breakfast'

    most other days, it's cereal and fruit, or a toasted egg sammich.

    During the week I wake up around 6:45 a.m. and have a cup of chocolate soy milk around 7:00.

    On the weekends I usually skip breakfast.

    My absolute favorite is Chocolate Oatmeal (I save it for special occasions), recipe adapted from chocolatecoveredkatie.com

    1 ripe banana, sliced/mashed (doesn't matter, since it will caramelize)
    1/2 cup rolled (not quick) oats
    1 cup water (or milk/milk alternative)

    Combine above ingredients & cook in a pot, rice cooker, or microwave.

    Stir in:
    1 T unsweetened cocoa powder (I use Hershey's)
    1/2 T unsweetened dark cocoa powder (I use Hershey's Special Dark)
    1/4 tsp vanilla extract
    1 pkt (or tablespoon) stevia (I use Truvia, you could also use table sugar)
    pinch of salt
    5-10 dark chocolate chips (optional, but delicious)

    Yum. Yum. Yum. :D

    Egg white omelet with tomatoes, onions, feta cheese and mushrooms. Spinach too if available. It's very low fat, quite filling and super delicious.

    I also like variety too and foods that taste good within moderation.

    two eggs, two slices of either reduced sodium ham or canadian bacon, a little bit of mild cheddar either on an english muffin or a flat bread. That with a cup of earl gray/cream is 309 calories and 26g of protein and I'm rarely hungry before lunch. I don't eat it every day but I have to have my eggs.

    I've been looking into paleo myself. I am going to miss my beans. So far so good since I have major sensitivities to grains and yeast. I've eliminated all breads. I feel a world of difference better and down 15 lbs but have plateaued.

    During the work week my breakfast is usually a a cup of coffee and a banana. I also eat a slice of wheat toast topped with peanut butter or plain greek yogurt with a touch of honey.

    During the weekend I am able to cook so I usually make soyrizo and egg whites.

    I mostly have some cereal with fruit and three spoonfull of yoghurt. I change the cereal, so it doesn't get boring, right now I have the multrigrain hot cereal ( i don't eat it hot though) from Trader Joe's.

    I hardly ever eat a salty breakfast, I only have a craving for eggs when I have a hangover.

    Ideal? As in my favorite?

    Eggs Benedict, hands down.

    Eggs Benedict, hands down.

    Had it when we went out last weekend. So good,
    but I hated to log it.

    I usually drink an 8oz glass of Hot and Spicy V8
    Juice (low sodium) and take my fish oil and cinnamon
    capsules. That holds me over for a couple of hours until
    I eat lunch.

    I love to have Greek yogurt with 1/4 cup granola, 1 tbsp sunflower seeds, and fresh blueberries or dried cranberries. It's so delicious! : )
