    I usually have oatmeal flavoured with cinnamon and apple butter. Mid morning snack is usually either cottage cheese or greek yogurt and a fruit.

    I like Oatmeal for breakfast. This morning I mashed a banana into my serving and then mixed 1 cup of lowfat kefir in to that.

    I also sometimes like a high protein breakfast. Maybe a couple of eggs and some toast with no-sugar added preserves, with some left over meat from dinner, such as flank steak. I just count up the cals and hit between 400-500 for breakfast.

    I'm fairly boring - either two scrambled eggs with a slice of toast or two waffles, toasted, with a tablespoon of almond butter and a bit of honey. And coffee. Lots of coffee.

    1 pouch of instant oatmeal (plain/no sugar)
    1/2 of a medium banana (apx 2 ounces) sliced VERY thinly
    1/4 c frozen blueberries
    1 tbsp finely chopped walnuts

    Prepare oatmeal in the microwave with water, not milk. While still very hot, stir in the sliced bananas and frozen blueberries. The hot oatmeal will cause the bananas to almost melt, and will bring the blueberries up to a really nice texture (blueberries also help cool down the oatmeal so you can eat it sooner). Sprinkle 1 tbsp of chopped walnuts on top and enjoy! VERY filling, and only 240 calories.

    I made some great sugarfree(ish) strawberry-banana bread for this week's breakfasts.

    Also used:
    1tsp baking powder
    1/2 tsp baking soda
    1/2 tsp cinnamon

    I'd suggest using whole-wheat flour for the full 2 cups; the only reason I didn't is because I ran out after the first loaf. :(

    Anyway, you mix the dry stuff together (except for the brown sugar), then you mix the wet stuff in, then you fold in the walnuts and strawberries, then you put it in a greased loaf pan, then you sprinkle the brown sugar over the top along with some more cinnamon, then you bake at 300 F until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean - about an hour. I cut it into 12 slices and then cut the loaf in half vertically - the 25th serving is what fell off while I was doing the cutting. :tongue:

    It's not super high in protein, but it's a pretty generous serving size. Add a tablespoon of natural peanut butter and it's a satisfying light breakfast or mid morning snack for just a little over 150 calories.

    Green smoothie and an english muffin with almond butter. For the green smoothie, I put in one cup of fresh spinach (not the bagged kind), half a banana, 1/3 cup of plain greek yogurt, one celery stalk, a squeeze of lemon, and water. I blend and enjoy it!

    Other days I'll have a veggie omelette made with one egg, four egg whites, spinach and tomato with a side of fruit and green tea.

    Today, I think I'm going to have 1/2 cup egg beaters, whole wheat english muffin, vitamin water zero and either a plum or cantelope. No cheese or anything on my sandwich because today is my meal day!

    Today I'm having a Thomas light English muffin with PB2 and strawberry preserves and a protein shake. My favorite breakfast is an omelet with spinach, tomatoes, Morningstar chicken, fake bacon bits, and some cheese, but I usually don't have time to make and eat an omelet in the morning. :laugh:

    I pretty much have the same thing every morning for breakfast (it's delicious):
    1 frozen banana
    half scoop protein powder
    2 tablespoons of peanut butter
    3/4 cup of Unsweetened Almond MIlk
    1 tbsp cocoa powder

    Blend!

    It's very sweet and delicious. It does pack a calorie punch on the days that I don't plan on exercising, so I cut it down to one tablespoon or peanut butter.

    I try to switch up my breakfast as much as possible. This morning I had one Van's flax waffle with 3/4 tbs trader joe's crunchy peanut butter and one banana sliced. 277 calories.

    Breakfast usually is just a cup of herbal tea. I don't usually "eat" until 12p or so.

    I have southwest egg beaters with cheese or just the plain egg beaters and I add vegetables w/cheese. Sometimes greek yogurt (yoplait makes one that is only 100 calories), or oatmeal with a pice of fruit.

    Enjoy !
