    Usual breakfast for me...

    Oatmeal with some butter and cinnamon/sugar, an orange, a cup of milk, two scrambled eggs. Going strong all morning!

    some kind of protein at breakfast is pretty essential for me...protein in general really helps to keep me going and feel satiated. Here's my usual:

    1 serving Coach's oats
    8 oz 1% milk (some goes in the oats and I drink the rest)
    1/3 cup blueberries (I just like 'em a lot)
    1 large hard boiled egg
    1 can low sodium v8
    2 cups black coffee

    The above gets me 24 grams of protein in the AM and it's around 448 calories. I also have an AM snack around 10AM which usually consists of greek yogurt and an orange...then lunch...PM snack...dinner. I usually get between 20-30 g of protein at each of those meals and snacks and I'm good. When I miss on my protein, I usually feel hungry at some point. You can manually play with your macros...I had to, and it's helped a lot. I do 40c/30p/30hf and it's worked really well for me.

    Eat something with a good amount of Fiber & Protein in it. Make sure you drink 2-3 cups of water because you could be dehydrated and the body sends the same signals for hunger and thirst.
