My top 2 breakfasts are:
1. 40% less sugar maple and brown sugar instant oatmeal = 120 cal (usually need an AM snack)
2. Mini breakfast pizza from schwans...a serving is 4, I usually have 2 = 190 cal (keeps me full until lunch)
Will occasionally make a breakfast sandwich - an egg (70), 2 pieces for 45 & delightful toast (90 cal), 2 pieces of turkey bacon (70)0 -
protein powder with yogurt and fruit..everyday!0
-
Mine include:
The aforementioned refrigerator oats.
A carton of non-fat Splenda sweetened yogurt w/ fresh or frozen fruit and 1/4-1/3 cup of granola.
Scramble up an egg and toss it, a touch of grated cheese, and a generous shot of Cholula into a 50 calorie tortilla.
At some point in the morning I also indulge in a cup of coffee or Irish breakfast tea with Splenda and some Land 'O Lakes fat-free Half & Half. As long as I eat some breakfast and sip on the coffee and my water bottle all morning, I get along to lunch time quite nicely!0 -
Nothing artificial or processed. Love berries with everything breakfasty and organic oats plus hemp seeds, plain yogurt and skimmed milk.
Mix it in various proportions, have it cold and hot.
With a cup of ginger, green or white tea

Toasted sandwich thins, wedge of Laughing Cow cinnamon cream cheese, with banana slices (about half of a small banana)0

Hands down ultimate low cal, fiber filled, protein breakfast - for me - and knocks a sweet tooth too:
1 Whole wheat sandwich thin (100 Calories)
2 tblspns Chocolate PB2 45 calories
2 tblspns Regular PB2 (powdered Peanut butter- very low fat) 45 calories
Mix both kinds pb2 together with 2 tblspns water until peanut butter consistency. Spread onto sandwich thin. Enjoy with coffee the sandwich is less than 200 calories, 14 grams protein and 6 grams of fiber. Has a chocolate peanut flavor, and is heavy enough to stick with you for 2 hours or so (until mid morning snack time at least )
LOVE my pb2!0 -
6-minute boiled eggs on toast - they cook while I do my makeup. 15 minutes from putting water on the stove to belly0
-
I agree with all of the people who have mentioned protein anything.
Chobani Greek yogurt (my favs are pineapple and peach)
Pure Protein bars- You can find these at Walmart (My favorite is the chocolate deluxe)
Premier Protein chocolate protein shakes- You can find these at Sam's Club
These are my go-to quick ones.0 -
Kashi go lean cereal and whole milk. Cup of coffee.
I am going to try the protein+coffee smoothie! Yum!0 -
Coffee or chocolate milk (12oz - 16oz) with one piece of toast.
I like dipping my toast in chocolate milk or my hot/iced coffee.
For some reason, this combination really fills me up!
Be sure to use non-fat milk and Ovaltine for the chocolate milk,
& I use flavored creamer in my coffee...
If you're planning to work out afterwards, substitute the non-fat milk for soy!
Paired with excersise (25min +), I lose more weight with Silk's Vanilla or Very Vanilla soy compared to non-fat milk!
Drink lots of water, and stick to ONLY water for the rest of the day if you have this as your breakfast.
I also love Fiber One bars. (:
You can also put one or two Yoplait Light yogurts in a bowl along with some granola or fresh fruit.
Greek's Pomegranite yogurt is AMAZING, but I would eat that plain since it's sorta fatty (good fat, though).
Hope this helps!0 -
My favourites for week days:
- omelette with cheese and tomato - I can make this in about 5 minutes for less than 300 cals.
- oatmeal with skim milk, peanut butter and sometimes apple or banana
Weekends are usually some kinds of eggs:
- scrambled eggs with feta and spinach
- baked eggs in spicy tomato/veggie sauce
- poached eggs and bacon
- chilli mushrooms, sauted spinach and fried eggs
Running breakfast:
- spicy fruit English muffin with peanut butter and banana
Occasional brekkies:
- weetbix with skim milk and strawberries
- fruit salad with natural yoghurt and mueslie
- french toast (no sugar added) with berries and ricotta
- toasted ham and cheese sandwich
- smoothie with banana, strawberries, natural yoghurt, skim milk, oatmeal and maybe honey
- fruit muffin with almond butter
- cheese and crackers, fruit0 -
Oh, two other things I like to do are:
Frosted Mini-Wheats with Silk Vanilla Soy milk (super filling)!
I also like to slice up a banana and put it in a bowl with extra cold non-fat milk!
Mmm... that sounds good! I may have to have that as my late-night snack!
This one may sound odd, but it's quick and easy... and it tastes good!0 -
Well this is my first attempt at my own protein bars. (Too expensive from the stores for my pocketbook)
They are super filling and fairly low in calories, however I am looking to make adjustments as they are a thick cakey texture and I would prefer a lighter recipe; but not bad for a first attempt! My two youngest seem to like them a lot.

Quaker Oats (From Website) - Quick Oats Oatmeal, 2 cup dry, 40g (1 cup cooked)
Jif - Creamy Peanut Butter, 4 tbsp
Body Fortress Whey Protein - Powder - Chocolate, 4 scoop 34 grams (with scoop)
Egg - Egg Whites, 4 large egg white (33g)

Great Value - Sweetened Flaked Coconut(Net Carbs), 8 tbsp (15g)

My doctor has told me whole milk is better as it is an unprocessed whole food. The heat processed that is used to remove the fat from milk destroys the proteins.
Also, The vitamin a and d in the milk are fat soluble, so your body needs the fat in the milk to be adsorbed. The fat is also great for muscle building.
Have you ever looked at the lable of low-fat and non-fat milk? The first ingredient is powdered milk!0 -
I like my Shakeology in the morning..
1 scoop Chocolate ShakeO
3/4 cup 2% or Skim Milk
1 tablespoon of Peanut Butter
1 Cup of Ice.
Blend until thick like a Frosty..
About 335 calories for the morning.. I was having a problem with getting enough calories when working out, so this helps..0 -
Berry Protein Smoothie
1 cup water
1 scoop of cytosport chocolate protein powder (delicious!)
1 cup frozen blueberries
3 large frozen strawberries (can be omitted, but helps with consistency)
1 T. peanut butter
Sometimes I add 1 T. wheat germ and/or 1 T. flax seed, but I'm all out right now, so the above recipe is all I use. This makes an absolutely delicious smoothie. Put all ingredients in a blender, and blend for a minute or so. I've found that the longer I blend, the frothier and more delightful this becomes. I've eaten this everyday for breakfast for about three years, and there is no end in sight. Right now, I'm using low-cal peanut butter, which reduces the total calories a bit. But it always hovers around 300 calories (right now it's a touch less, but it's usually twenty or thirty more). Enjoy!0 -
3 ingredient homemade granola with yogurt (new fav)
Overnight oats
Plain yogurt
Boiled eggs
Protein shake0 -
protein shake and chobani greek yougurt (16oz) ..fills me right up0
-
Organic bran flakes with almond milk (30 cals in 1 cup) and blueberries. I buy the organic bran to avoid high fructose corn syrup. FIBER keeps you full, so find a high-fiber breakfast!0
-
In the colder fall/winter months, I do crockpot oatmeal (steel cut oats, water and/or milk, a pinch of salt and 1/2 tsp vanilla)...let it sit all night-amazing.
Or I do toast with peanut butter...
This week I bought myself some whole grain apriocot fig bars and I have one of those in the morning with my coffee just before my workout. Then whenI get to work I have a greek yogurt.0 -
This might sound strange but I sometimes make protein oats by using whipped egg whites in place of the liquid (or at least most of the liquid) when making my oatmeal/oat bran. The usual mix consists of:
1/3-1/2 cup Oatmeal/Oat Bran
3-4 Egg Whites, whipped
Cinnamon, Additional Spices, Vanilla Extract (whatever I happen to be in the mood for that morning)
A little added water (or whatever liquid you want to use) to loosen the mixture a bit. I eyeball this.
-Nuke for 1-2 minutes. This turns out to be thicker than normal oats. It's very filling.
-Then, top with fruit, peanut butter, flax oil, etc to your liking.
*Another variation of protein oats would be to replace the egg whites with1/2-1 scoop of protein powder. Be sure to add additional liquid.0 -
2 large scrambled eggs with feta & spinach, sprouted whole wheat fiber toast w/either 1T cream cheese or pb.
Overnight oatmeal, PB banana or maple coconut are my favorites so far. Can add protein powder to it too.
Greek yogurt, plain, or vanilla if I can deal with the extra sugar, with fruit & Go Lean Crunch.0
