    Depending on my mood and what I have in my pantry sometimes I will have omelette, oatmeal/quinoa/cereal with fruits, milk and peanut butter. If I'm lazy I would normally just make myself peanut butter banana sammiches or egg white sammiches or made a protein smoothie. If I'm late or on a run I'll just grab some fruits. (: Gahhh I love breakfast!

    I hate breakfast type foods. I cook breakfast for the family but don't eat what I make for them. I usually just have coffee and then later when I start to feel hungry I'll have a greek yogurt and some fruit. I'm just not hungry when I wake up plus I hate typical breakfast foods. When I am in the mood for it I'll have a veggie egg white omelet but thats it for me.

    Oatmeal is really good! Pair it with fruit and milk, and peanut butter and breakfast cocoa (mixed together) if you wish. There are so much you can do with oatmeal for brekkie, it's the best!

    There are a lot of baked oatmeal recipes here that you can have for breakfast:

    Enjoy breakfast, it's the best time of the day :3

    I typically have hard boiled egg smushed on some buttered bread, or peanut butter on bread, (i broke the toaster and haven't been able to afford another one lol). And i always go for any brand of bread less than 70clas a slice. I find that it fills me up more than any other breakfast.

    Going out for breakfast is a different matter though...that's when i usually cave and have a fry up!

    I eat breakfast every morning as breakfast is to "break the fast" you have been on since you last ate your dinner or snack the night before. I pretty much eat the same things that Lapinco eats. Nice to see someone else who likes variety.

    Lowfat cottage cheese with fresh fruit, eggo lowfat whole grain waffles with peanut butter, eggs & whole wheat toast, whole wheat english muffin toasted with sliced lowfat cheese & a cooked egg.

    During the week I make a Shakeology shake with 8 ounces unsweetened coconut milk and 4 oz filtered water. Sometimes I mix in PB2 or blend it with some fruit. If I don't put fruit in it I'll have an apple or banana with it. Weekends I usually have some eggs with maybe a GF muffin or GF bread with ghee.

    Two hardboiled eggs. Sometimes cold meat as well like chipolata sausage. Or spinach reduced and scrambled egg. At the weekend I sometimes have a full fry up with lots of mushrooms and tomatoes in butter and lots of coffee. Yum!

    I don't. I know most people say it's important to eat breakfast but I just don't. I never was a breakfast person. I am not hungry. I haev a coffee (black) and some water and I'm good until I have a yogurt or so mid-day. It took me a while to realize that it's just not my thing --- I used to force myself to eat something and it just made me feel gross. So I don't.

    we love our brekkie! Lately I've been on a tortilla espanola/ fritatta kick (egg whites with sweet potatoes and some left over veggies from the night before) quick creamy polenta with a poached egg is also super yummy - sometimes just toast with cheese or avocado - or cereal with loads of fresh berries n half a banana - nom nom nom.... Now I'm hungry for something - better wake up the barrista so we can start the day with our lattes...

    There is no need to eat it if you don't fancy having it. I've stopped now since I learned it doesn't boost your metabolism to eat it and so I go from dinner last night to lunchtime today. It's called intermittant fasting.

    Yup same here

    I am not a breakfast person and I will do evening meal to lunch the next day but I will likely have 2 cups of tea with skim milk and one sugar. I wouldn't count this as fasting as I have some calories (albeit only 40) but am wondering if maybe I am wrong and it would still count? Thanks

    Dieting for almost 20 weeks now I cant wait to eat breakfast and it is always my biggest meal of the day usually around 700-900 calories. At the same time it is almost always the same. Cup and a half of egg whites. 1 or 2 whole eggs. And a large dose of carb source. Since carbs are easily used to replenish glycogen in the morning after a fast of sleep. Usually cereal and skim milk or oats and water. Currently LOVING a combo of 81 grams of wheaties and 30g of Fiber One cereal. Usually my bfasts end up being around 100 carbs and 60-70 protein and under 10grams of fat. I also mix in 4 oz of turkey breast with the eggs and throw some baby spinich in the mix and pan cook it all!! MMMM CANT WAIT FOR BREAKFAST NOW!

    I want you to make me breakfast. Mmm.

    I struggle in the area of breakfast. I can easily skip it without noticing, but if I do eat it I gravitate towards fatty, high carb, or sugary foods. I have been eating oatmeal for the past few days, but its going to get boring and then I will end up making some bad choices. I need to find a go-to breakfast that is going to keep me full, without filling me full of sugar and such, and that it...interesting and appealing :) Please help me out.

    As said I don't normally do breakfast but if I have been hungry I would always go to fatty/sugar foods, croissant being one of my faves, this morning I went to the gym early and found by 9am I was starving, instead of buying rubbish I picked up a pack of sliced turkey breast (looking for easy protein) and just ate 4 slices, it was actually really nice and filled me up for ages and for 88 cals that not bad. That's my random breakfast from today anyway :happy:

    I wasn't a breakfast person at all until I started medication for a hypoactive thyroid. Not eating it didn't hurt me one bit, and left me calories for when I really wanted them later in the day.

    Now I wake up and am starving, so I eat a mini whole wheat bagel with peanut butter as actual breakfast to hold me for a bit. A couple hours later I have a banana, and after that I have some veggies and dip. I'm a snacker. I'd like a little more protein in my breakfast, actually.

    2 eggs scrambled or baked as a "muffing" with diced mixed sweet peppers and homemade sausage (ground pork + seasonings) with 1/2 baked sweet potato. Protein, fat & carb.

    More often than not it's a cup of Kashi go lean, 6oz of skim milk and some fruit

    Then most often I'd say steel cut oats cooked in the crockpot with some dried fruit thrown in at start time

    Then some kind of eggs, toast, and a meat, maybe even Chorizo hash

    Then maybe pancakes/waffles/french toast

    I usually eat a Clif Bar. About 240 calories, tastes good, and holds me until lunch most days.
