    Yes, try oatmeal. It is very filling.
    Also, greek yogurt - add in some fruit to give it more flavor/sweetness.

    Eggs of course - I personally like mine over easy, but I also love hard boiled.

    Edit: Well, looks like your already covered, actually. c:

    lol yea.. i actually like fried eggs, i think they are delicious :tongue: ... not really, i just eat them cuz they are healthy :ohwell: i used to hate eggs and cucumbers when i was a kid. Still hate cucumbers!!!

    I usually eat high protein like an egg white omelet with diced ham or bacon. If you can eat it within 30 mins of waking up I have found my metabolism and body responds well to that. Enjoy

    I like oatmeal with bananas (or peaches-the dole brand in a jar is good) and a dollup of fat free whip cream. also I make the oatmeal with vanilla unsweetened almond milk.
    eggs with turkey bacon is good as well
  • there's a blog called chocolate covered katie which does really healthy desserts. She makes these baked oatmeal things which are amazing and would be good as snacks or for breakfast. She does a cookie dough one but I think the best is the banana bread one

    Oats
    Nuts
    Eggs
    Dark berries
    Apples
    Bananas

    Or try the meat and nut breakfast.
    Red meat & nuts raise acetylcholine. The meat allows for a slow and steady rise in blood sugar. The nuts provide a great source of healthy smart fats that allows the blood sugar to remain stable for an extended period of time.

    Alternatively go for fish, chicken, eggs and oils.

    I've been doing make-ahead steel cut oats for the last couple of weeks.

    Toppings include raspberries/blueberries or bananas plus 1/4c nuts (walnuts or almonds respectively).

    I like having "grab and go" brekkie in my fridge.

    I like a good hit of protein in the morning, so eggs often fill the bill for me. Keeping hard-boiled eggs on hand makes a quick breakfast.

    Fat Free Cottage cheese with tomatoes
    Fat Free yogurt
    Water Pack Tuna

    I love protein for breakfast and to start my day. Small amount of cheese on a corn tortila.

    I make overnight smoothie packs! I fill an ice cube tray with greek yogurt and put it in the freezer, then I fill sandwich bags with different fruits for different smoothies. In the mornings, I dump a bag into the blender with a few "yogurt cubes" and some milk, and make a smoothie! They're really good!

    And I almost always have oatmeal and add baked apples (slice up an apple, throw it into a sandwich bag, pour a little water inside, and put in the microwave for 35-45 seconds until they're soft.) And if you REALLY like sweets (I do, too!) you can add chocolate chips, cocoa powder, or strawberries to your oatmeal. It's delicious.

    I often have a couple of slices of grilled (broiled in US I think) bacon, and I put some sliced cherry tomatoes under there as well, along with 2-3 eggs, either scrambled, poached or hard boiled. (occasionally fried as well, in a non-stick pan with no fat)

    I put this on a bed of cress (A hairy biker's trick - UK pals will know what I mean) or 1 slice of wholegrain, comes in around 380-450 cals. I find if I eat enough granola or porridge with yoghurt and fruit to fill me up, it's over 500 cals and I feel hungry earlier than the bacon and eggs.

    I also like salmon, lots of fruit, omelette and huevoes rancheros for a change. I make chilli beans to my own recipe as they are a good mix of protein and carbs.

    This is my standard breakfast. It only deviates according to what kind of cereal I use, or the kind of fruit in season:

    1 banana (@ 3-31/2 oz)
    6 oz plain yogurt
    1/4 oz honey
    1/2 cup walnuts
    3/4 cup bran flakes or other whole grain cereal

    If strawberries, peaches, or other fruit are in season, I will add them to the mix.

    This keeps me hunger free the entire morning, and if I have a late lunch, I am not too crazy with hunger.

    i like kashi whole grain waffles with peanut butter or almond butter, egg white omelets or frittatas with some lower fat shredded cheese+salsa, and real oatmeal flavored with fruit and some cottage cheese...also like protein smoothies with fruit, fruit-juice sweetened yogurt, a handful of spinach, and some frozen berries (or protein smoothie with Tropicana 50, vanilla yogurt, spinach or kale, and tropical frozen fruit)

    I have a smoothy.
    1 cup berries (blueberris, raspberries and strawberries)
    1 cup almond unsweetened milk (30 calories)
    1 tsp flax seed meal
    1 tsp chia seeds
    1 scoop whey protein powder

    I also make it with pumpkin instead of the berries & add pumpkin pie spice and cinnamon.

    I have been doing this for four months and have lost a lot of belly fat. (I have also been working out regularly and limiting
    sugar and breads.
  • Ooo I just had the most delicious wholemeal egg white french toast with yoghurt and hot berries. I didn't use any extra fat as I griddled it and I just added low kcal sweetner and cinnamon ontop. It might be good for your sweeet cravings but only has 4g of sugar in it
  • try egg white too. Not as much fat as regular eggs and just as much protien. You can eat 3 to equal 1 egg.
