The meal I have most trouble with is breakfast. I never feel completely full & it doesn't hold me very long, by lunch time I'm famished! What are you guys eating for breakfast? I could use some ideas. Thanks!

Eggs with ham and cheese (I use cottage cheese, or goat cheese) a bit of salt and pepper, mix it all together and pop it in the oven for 30 min at 350 F, you can add veggies as well. Its like a crustless quiche, yum!!!!!
How about having a snack mid way between breakfast and lunch, thats what I do. A piece of fruit, some nuts, or something else that can last you til lunch ....0 -
I have a waffle sammich. Two waffles with grilled chicken. It's actually very good.
Or 2 hard boiled eggs and toast with jelly.
Those keep me pretty full0 -
Oatmeal… I put some cinnamon in it, and spread fruit flavored greek yogurt on top. It holds me until lunch no problem.
Edit- sometime I put a banana instead of yogurt.0 -
my breakfast is usually a cup of almond milk, a 1/4 cup of old fashioned oats, 1/2 cup of blueberries, and a scoop of protein powder. keeps me full until my next meal time which is around 3-3.5 hrs later.0
-
I eat either Instant Breakfast, oatmeal with raisins and banana, or peanut butter and banana. If you get hungry before lunch, you can have an apple.0
-
I find I make a omelet from two eggs and ham. Some times add onions. I use laughing cow cheese. I am totally full for a very long time.0

I recently discovered Laughing Cow cheese, and I have become addicted. Most days this week I have had a wedge of cheese, 2 boiled eggs, a handful of butter crackers and grapes...425 cals, 47g carbs, 19g fat, and 17g protein.0

I'm a smoothie girl and use greek yogurt and a half a banana all the time...helps keep me full until lunch0
-
Either scrambled eggs or omelette with turkey ham & veggies. Around 120 calories!!0

i make my own egg mcmuffin at home! large egg, bacon or ham, cheddar cheese and a light english muffin! it definitely holds me over!0

1/3 cup quaker oats, 1/8 cup craisins, 1/2 cup egg whites. Add water to suit, microwave for 2 minutes.0

Depends on how many calories you want? This morning I had a big breakfast ... two slices multigrain toast, two pieces ham (on the toast) with scrambled eggs on top (2 eggs, 2 egg whites) with finely grated swiss cheese (mmmm) and a couple small peaches. 537 calories If you wanted a bit smaller breakfast, I'm sure that could be halved and be satisfying.0

I eat this pretty much every morning

Sundays I like to have 2 eggo waffles (lower calorie ones) topped with a blended mixture of apple pie filling (found one that has splenda for lower calories) and reduced calorie syrup.0 -
I bated Greek yogurt tell I tried the dannon/stony oikios stuff I assume it has more sugar but the calories are fine and it doesn't have a sour taste to me.0

This is a very good breakfast. I will sometimes substitute Chia Seeds for the rolled oats for variety. Either one, rolled oats or Chia Seeds in a smoothie of your choice keeps you full until your next meal. Here is my recipe:
1/2 cup frozen mixed berries or frozen blueberries
1/2 scoop protein powder
1/4 cup old fashioned rolled oats (dry) or 1/2 tablespoon Chia Seeds
1 tablespoon plain Greek Yogurt
1 cup Almond Milk or enough to make pouring consistancy.
Blend ingredients in a blender and serve. Makes one serving.
You can switch it up any way you want.........if you like coconut milk or skim milk that works too. Use different berries or fruit, just make sure most of the fruit is frozen..............works best in a smoothie.
Have fun with your breakfast.

1 cup of Multi-grain cheerios, 1/2 cup fat free milk, a banana, and 1 cup of Orange Juice. 2 Low-fat whole grain waffles, with 2 tablespoons peanut butter, and 1 tablespoon of strawberry preserves. Either will keep me full until lunch.
Sometimes I'll get really crazy and make myself buttermilk pancakes or french toast but that's a rare happening.0 -
my morning eating is the same thing every day....don't know if you have the luxury of having a morning snack or not but if you do you could always try: my breakfast and morning snack routine. 3/4c. multi-grain cheerios (peanut butter flavored) or 3/4c. cinnamon chex, 1c. 1%milk, and then 2 hours later eat 1c. fresh cubed cantalope.....this is what works for me. but i eat about every 2 to 3 hours. i find that helps me from feeling famished.0

Spinach & Ham Quiche--it's amazing!! and very filling!

Oatmeal and Applesauce
1 cup of water
1/2 cup McCann's quick oats
1tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp cinnamon
2 tsp brown sugar
1/4 cup apple sauce
1/2 cup strawberries (or any berries)
251 calories
PB&J Oatmeal
1 cup of water
1/2 cup McCann's quick oats
1 tbsp peanut butter
1 tbsp jam
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp brown sugar
1/2 cup strawberries (or any berries)
306 calories
Whole Wheat Waffles
1 3/4 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 tsp of salt
1 tbsp baking powder
2 eggs
1 3/4 cup almond or coconut milk
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
1 tsp vanilla extract
3 tsp splenda (I omitted and added some cinnamon)
Calories depend on the size of your waffle maker, but I divided them into 100 cal portions. I freeze them, so they're ready right away in the morning. Then you can dress them however you like. Jam is really good. Fruit, honey, nuts, even an egg.
Egg Sammich
Toast
Sunny Side up Egg
Low-cal cheese
Tomato
Lettuce
Calories depend on bread. Pick something whole wheat and dense and full of nature.
Cereal
Kashi GoLean
Berries or Banana
Almond or Coconut milk
Kashi is high calories, but it's also high in protein and carbs, so it should keep you full.
If I'm jogging in the morning...
Before jog:
1/2 cup Kashi GoLean cereal
1/4 cup of almond or coconut milk
110 Calories
After Jog:
1 Scoop Allmax Isoflex, Peanutbutter and Chocolate
110 Cals
Total: 220
BUT. If you're still getting hungry before lunch, eat a snack around 10:30. If I get hungry I have carrots and dip. (Boathouse Farms Classic Ranch, 45 calories for 2 tbsp). You could also do fruit.0 -
Egg white omelette with spinach and mushrooms. My favorite. I have it everyday!!0

I read this in the book "Born to Run" by Christopher McDougall, tried it out, and have adopted it as my regular BF. I eat salad for breakfast now. Lots of greens, add blueberries, strawberries, banana, whatever fruit I want, then sprinkle it with flax seeds, chia seeds and sunflower seeds. I love it. I actually bought one of those salad lunch boxes from Kroger and I make it up the night before to save time.
My other favorite beakfast is Good'n'natural nutrition bars. They are my quick and easy back up for the mornings I get a late start and have to run out the door without eating.
Good luck!0 -
i make this blueberry almond oatmeal recipe at least 3 times a week. it's delicious and very satisfying!
