    My fav breakfast is an omlette with egg substitute, turkey sausage, reduced fat cheddar cheese with mushroom and onions. Super high in protein and really filling. You get a lot for your calories here.

    If you really wanted waffles, you can make your own low carb/high protein waffles!! Check out youtube for some great recipes. There's a channel called leanbodyfitness . This guy has tons of great recipes!

    I find that pancakes and sausage make an excellent pre-workout breakfast. I don't have time most mornings, but on the weekends, that's for me. Three pancakes, 1/4 cup maple syrup, two sausage links. :love:

    That sounds...Amazing...

    If you add a bit of butter and wash it down with a cup of milk, it's just over 600 calories, half of which will get burned in my work-out. So I enjoy it guilt free. (Plus it is roughly half the number of calories that I used to eat for a pancake breakfast.)

    If you don't like the texture of oatmeal just add more water/skim milk. At work I have instant plain oatmeal add some non-dairy creamer and artificial sweetner with plenty of water and drink it down. When at home, I'll have egg beaters w/low fat meat (I like turkey Spam) and a little cheese wrapped in a whole wheat tortilla.

    No, the only way to change the texture is to change the way you cook it. Baked oatmeal FTW :drinker:

    Definitely get rid of the cheerios I have to agree with everyone else. Not sure if you like shakes as breakfast but I bought Nature's Bounty protein shake in chocolat (they have vanilla too) and I put it in the blender .1 cup of 1% milk, 2 scoops of the powder and a banana and it keeps me full for a good 3 hours its about 355 cals

    Make sure your logging your food so that you can see how the things you eat affect your cal consumption.

    If you like waffles, nothing wrong with that keep it to 2, use a little bit of butter to add some flavor and a small amount of syrup. Aunt Jemima Complete buttermilk waffles are pretty good and def filling. But you'll need to add some other macronutrients to round your meal out.

    spread some peanut butter on those waffles

    I like the Kashi Whole Grain waffles with a little peanut butter and fresh fruit or some organic strawberry preserves.

    I eat quinoa with some frozen blueberries that I defrost (to make a blueberry sauce that covers the quinoa).
