    I've been doing up a smoothie with greek yogurt, unsweetened almond milk, ground chia seeds, kale and whatever fruit is in the fridge. I drink it on the way to work (I leave at 6:45 and get to work at 7:30) and it keeps me going all morning. Love it!!

    This may sound weird but I love:

    4 egg whites, 1/3 cup oatmeal (quick oats) and 2tbs of peanut butter and some truvia.

    Here's what you do:
    1. Mix the egg whites and quick oats in a bowl.
    2. Pour them into a heated up small skillet and cook through. Flip once and cook the other side.
    3. Place on a plate (It's like a pancake)
    4. Spread the peanut butter on it then sprinkle some truvia on it for extra sweetness
    5. Enjoy

    I know it sounds weird but it is UBER healthy. Also the eggs whites and oats are pretty tasteless so it just takes on the falvor of the peanut butter. It has all three MACROS. Protein in the eggs, carbs in the oats, and fats in the peanut butter. It's is much better for your waistline than a real pancake, but it is 100% good for you.

    My breakfast go to is:
    Oatmeal with raisens, banana. (sometimes I will add strawberries (when I have them), marshmallows, and sometimes a put some cocoa crispies in there also so it turns chocolatey :love: just to be different)

    If I am in a hurry I have cocoa crispies with raisens and banana...it's just quicker to put toghether :happy:

    I love Greek yogurt but it makes my glucose spike too high.

    I usually stick to some form of egg whites - usually in what I named an inside-out omelet cooked with every vegetable in the fridge and topped with homemade salsa.

    I always have 1/2 cup of 1% cottage cheese and a piece of fruit (apple, banana, 1C grapes, etc ...) this keeps me going for 3 hours or so until I have lunch. It is not enough calories if I am trying to go 4-5 hours between meals, so, I would add an egg or two if I knew I was going to have to wait for lunch longer than normal.

    Everyday I have either an apple or a banana with almond or peanut butter. On weekends I make egg white omlettes and other fun stuff but during the week if a stray from my normal fruit and nut butter I get hungry and snack on other junk.

    Like many I like to have a protein boost to the day. These are my two usual breakfasts:

    1 potato, microwaved, sliced then dry fried in non stick pan with spray of oil, or I add a TINY knob (3g) butter
    1 tomato, sliced, ditto
    2 eggs, ditto
    lots of black pepper
    black coffee no sugar no milk (I used to have milk & two sugars, taught myself not to do that)!
    About 250 cals depending on sizeof potato & tomato

    or

    Vogel's soy & Linseed Ultra Bran cereal 30g
    yoghurt - some sort of low fat yoghurt - a serve eg 150-175 depending on brand
    almond milk unsweetened - half a cup
    coffee ditto
    About 200 cals - I also sometimes add fruit, a blob of Greek low fat yoghurt, a handful of different cereal, a teaspoon of honey, just depends.

    3 eggs, scrambled (no oil, I have a really nice non-stick pan) with a handful of spinach, a three-finger-pinch of shredded mozzerella, and some chopped walnuts. Awesome.

    Some scrambled egg whites with a tiny bit of sea salt. Or oatmeal with blueberries and cinnamon. Or even just some sauteed veggies with salsa and light sour cream - or plain.
