    I have eggs every morning. Love eggs!

    I no longer eat grains or processed foods so no cereals, etc. for me. When I still ate grains my favorite breakfast was steel cut oats with a scoop of protein powder added. A special treat was adding chocolate protein powder & a few drops of peppermint extract or coconut extract. I'd sometimes add a tablespoon of virgin coconut oil. Never added milk.

    Some of my breakfast staples

    multigrain english muffin with egg whites, 1 slice of low fat cheese and 2 slices of turkey bacon.

    Cereal - Cheerios any of the flavors are good

    Oatmeal- Plain or flavored

    2 Multigrain Eggo Waffles with a little peanut butter and a tsp of low fat syrup.

    These are all good choices and they hold me over until lunch, sometimes I have a piece of fruit also, if not I take my piece of fruit to work and have it later if I start to get hungry before lunch.

    Hope this helps!

    This is my base breakfast, recommended by my cardiologist

    Quaker Oats - Old Fashioned 100% Whole Grain. 0.5 cup dry cooked with 1 cup water
    Blueberries - Raw, 0.5 cup
    Kirkland Signature - Almonds - Supreme Whole 28g
    Total 361 calories, 9g sugar
    Add 1 cup of coffee with 1Tbsp sugar free creamer adds 17 calories and 0 sugar
    I drink a pint of water before and after breakfast

    If I cannot find fresh blueberries, I sustitute a 6" to 7" banana which does have more sugar or a small apple cored and diced and mixed into the oatmeal then nuke 1 minute more, sprinkle cinnamon and "Equal Classic" on top,and let it rest a couple of minutes. It isn't quite good as apple pie but smells like it.

    I usually just swallow my shame, and call myself a cab in the morning.

    I left you money on the dresser.

    Flax seed muffin in a mug: 1 egg, 1/4 C ground flax seed, 1/2 t baking powder, 1 t cinnamon and a squirt of honey. Mix all in a mug and stick in microwave for 45 sec and check to see if done. I spray the mug with cooking spray lightly first.
    I also make old fashion oats and add a cut up apple, sprinkle cinnamon and add a dash of honey. Sometimes Ezekiel raisin bread and Chobani yogurt, banana, protein shake just to name a few different things.
