    I make a fruit smoothie every morning. Almond milk, banana, frozen mixed fruit and some cinnamon. I take it to work and "eat" it there. Sometimes I mix in flax, or natural peanut butter, or some kind of nuts but usually it's just fruit and almond milk.

    I have my organic kale, chard, and spinach cleaned and ready to grab in a freezer bag in the fridge. It takes less than 5 minutes to sautéed them in olive oil and then when cooked, I add two scrambled egg whites with a little garlic salt. DELISH! Tastes like its cooked in butter. I eliminate any cheese cause I'm Paleo plus dairy sensitive. Amazing how much this fills me. I usually will grab some walnuts and a fruit (donut peach).

    I have regularly 1/4-1/3 dry oats (quick oat kind), packet of Truvia, about 1/2cup skim milk (or almond milk), cinnamon, almond slivers, and dried cranberries...you can add unsweetened shredded coconut or different types of nuts for protien/healthy fats...I've also made it with a spoonful of coconut milk. Thats what I usually have during my workweek. I prepare it the night before, heat it for 2 minutes and take it to work to eat at my desk.

    Weekends, my boyfriend and I have eggs and toast--I crack four eggs, giving him one whole egg and three yolks. I eat the other three egg whites with sautee'd kale, red peppers, zucchini, summer squash and onions. I have 1 piece of bountiful baskets 9 grain organic sandwich bread (only 65 cal. per slice) with 1 tbs peanut or almond butter. I will eat fruit with this if I'm not full--usually blueberries or melon, or strawberries or tomato. Strawberries sliced on the almond butter tastes decadent.

    Although skipping breakfast is fewer calories, I've always been under the impression that starting your day with a healthy and filling meal high in protien and variety sets the tone for what you eat all day. When I skipped breakfast, I gained weight because I always went after craving-type foods and not what was good for me due to me feeling so hungry.

    I wish I could eat egg yokes but they upset my stomach instantly. Not sure why. I stick to egg whites.

    a bowl of oatmeal with sliced bananas or strawberries & a packet of stevia
    1 scrambled egg with turkey smoked sausage & whole grain Naan flatbread

    I stopped eating breakfast because I was eating more than I used to.

    Instead I just snack on dried fruits and nuts.

    I usually eat Activia yogurt and fruit. Sometimes an egg if I have boiled some on the weekend. You can also scramble an egg in the microwave in about 66 seconds.

    On the days I don't feel like cooking/eating breakfast I have either a Chobani greek yogurt or I drink Ultramet Lite Chocolate Fudge protein shakes. The shake tastes like Swiss miss and keeps you full for several hours and the Lite version has 220calories I think. I also keep a box of prepackaged Oatmeal at work.
    When I do feel like cooking I do an egg scramble with my fave veggies like onions, bell peppers, zucchini, and a very small amount of cheese.
