    Egg Beaters w/ a wedge of Laughing Cow Cheese melted in and 3 slices of turkey bacon = 173 calories and all the protein keeps you feeling full all morning. I make the egg beaters in a coffee mug in the microwave at work and eat at my desk. I found this idea on www.hungrygirl.com, it is a great site for low calorie meal ideas.

    Egg Beaters topped with pico de gallo
    A slice of toast with jam
    A cup of 2% milk

    Though I normally try to stay away from processed foods, I use Egg Beaters for the lower calories. Three eggs is 240 calories, while an equivalent amount of Egg Beaters is 75. The pico de gallo and bread are homemade, and the jam is from the farmers market.

    2 slices of bacon ,2 eggs and mushrooms fried with olive oil on a low setting as if its fried on a high setting it turns to fat. this breaky includes, protein, fats and low carb and no sugars like cereal. best thing i ever did was switching to this from cereal !

    Apparently the best thing to do, if you want to lose weight, is have a high protein breakfast. It fills you up and stops you craving junk later in the day. So I do this, at least when I'm working - I boil eggs in advance and have a hard boiled egg for breakfast, which is very easy. I also have a green drink - barleygrass or wheatgrass - as this gives me energy and helps me feel well. I find this breakfast works well for me.

    But when it's the holidays, like now, I tend to have a smaller breakfast - wheatgrass and a banana and some cacao nibs.

    blueberries, blackberries, or apple.
    1 slice of dry, 100% whole-grain toasted bread with 1 slice of 99% fat free turkey breast.
    1 fresh tomato
    hot tea (no milk, no sugar)

    That sounds like a great breakfast. I think I will have to try that for breakfast this week.

    250 calories, 1 g protein, 1/2 g fat--i sense a problem.

    1 cup greek yogurt, topped with 1 oz slivered almonds, and 1/2 cup berries. Hard boiled egg for a mid morning snack with some fresh chopped veggies. AWESOME! ~25-35g protein, healthy fats, and fiber.

    Kashi or Vans waffles are good choices. Quick and you can do a lot with them really fast. I love spreading 2 tbs of peanut butter over them. I also sometimes do light cream or ricotta cheese with a little cinnamon. Both ways are easy to eat on the go. Otherwise if you have time they're great topped with berries (frozen or fresh).

    Rolled oats cooked with water, a little protein powder, a little milk and some fruit in the blender is another good idea.

    Kashi Island Vanilla cereal, Fiber One (the original) is really low cal and filling, hard boiled eggs. You can also cook eggs in a coffee mug int he microwave (about 1 minute per egg) and add in cheese or veggies or whatever to it too. That's quick and easy to eat on the go.

    La Favorita burritos - I think they sell them a lot of places but we get ours at Walmart... you can get a 6 pack for around $7. They're pretty low cal and only take about 2 minutes in the microwave!

    Otherwise YOGURT! Chobani is high in protein, tasty, and on the lower end for sugar content.

    Good luck!

    Scrambled Eggs, sometime Omelette. My trick is pre-chopping the vegetables/onions - etc, and putting them into containers, so I can wake up - whip out the pan, and cook away as I get ready. Example of my Omelette this morning:

    Calories: 410.
    Egg White Omelette with all the fixings:
    Egg Whites
    Light Swiss Cheese
    Jalapeños, Chopped
    Peppers, Chopped
    A Mushroom, Sliced
    Sweet Onion, Chopped
    Can of Clover Leaf Garlic & Hot Pepper, heated through
    Chilli Hot Sauce
    Mrs Dash, Garlic & Herb Blend

    Calories: 410
    Carbs: 6g
    Fat: 14g
    Protein: 60g!
    Sugar: 2g

    You can omit here and there though - omit the cheese and save about 100, but @50 cals a slice, and protein, eh, I like it.

    I love fried ham for breakfast and the brand I buy is only 90 calories for 3 oz (that is four slices). Add some light whole wheat toast with sugar free jam and a fruit and I have a huge breakfast for under 200 calories (depending on the fruit I choose).

    What is wrong with egg yokes!!!??? Is there some bro science article that I'm unaware of? It's just a waste to throw out any part of the egg, especially the more tasty part....

    I have hot oatmeal with fruit and almond butter basically every morning. Sometimes I do overnight oats for a change.
