    Wow! Thanks for all the info!
    I'll try to get my palate used to the idea of hard boiled eggs. I've just never liked the texture.

    I also like all the shake options. Those look yummy.

    I'm trying to stay away from oatmeal and cereal if I can. I'm slowly getting used to the primal/paleo diet, so I'm trying to only do one meal with carbs a day, and it's tough when I use it on breakfast. But when I know I will be able to be paleo throughout the day, those oatmeal options sound delicious.

    The Greek yogurt is GREAT! I love it, but that tends to be my middle of the day snack. Has anyone ever tried those cocoa or cinnamon roasted almonds? Crumbling those into yogurt is fantastic! The texture and taste is great.

    As far as getting up earlier, it's all about setting goals that you know you can achieve over a period of time. I don't want to give myself a goal I know I'm going to eventually end up resenting.

    Once again, thanks for everyone's advice. Glad this could be a useful topic! Keep up the fantastic work!

    Hmm...I get up at 4:30am each day and come home at ~7:30pm...and I still cook breakfast and prep meals for myself each morning...Just saying, you can do it to.

    High protein breakfast? Well have you got some protein powder? Try 2 scoops, half a mug full of ice, .5 cup milk, some natural PB, and maybe some coaco powder. That's simple and effective.

    However if you want to do things right. 6 eggs, 3 yolks, 4oz smoked ham, reggiano cheese. Whip it into an omelet. Takes only a couple minutes longer than the shake.

    Listen to this ^ guy! He knows his stuff. Just look at him, he's dieseled!!!

    Looking at a "dieseled man" does not suddenly turn one into a morning person. :laugh: :laugh:

    Well, I would probably eat 1/3 max of his breakfast because it just seems enormous but I'm all for "dieseld men" :)

    You can scramble eggs in the microwave in a coffee mug. Not as good as cooking them the other way but definitely easier and quicker than the stove top

    Hehe! I pretty much do this, but I throw in chicken Sausage mushrooms and veggies. scramble them with milk and eggs and nuke 3 minutes top it with cheese.. And a warm healthy breakfast. Though what I need to do is take spinach or potato slices to line a muffin tin, fill it up with the omlete stuff, bake and freeze it so on mornings when I'm running late (most of them these days) I can just pop one in and have a healthy psuedo-quiche.
