    I have a light multi grain English muffin with a jumbo egg cooked with a spray of light olive oil and a dash of salt & pepper. Just over 190 calories and gets me going for a few hours.

    If I don't have fat and protein first meal, then the rest of the day I'm hungry. And I eat six times per day...

    First meal for me: 1 slice high protein low carb toast with a tablespoon of almond butter.

    180 calories. I'm satisfied for about 3-5 solid hours, and I don't munch the rest of the day on mindless carbs.

    I want to keep things interesting and I like this idea...I will try it for one of my breakfasts :-)

    homemade oatmeal...that's generally what I do, but I add banana, milk, and other stuff because i like to load up in the AM. but if you just did oatmeal you'd be around 150 calories or so...plus get a good dose of fiber and protein.

  • microwave omelet are good and quick and run anywhere from 115-150 calories depending on what veggies you add
    (please note there is no cheese in this omelet)

    you can purchase the egg substitute or use egg whites (1/2 cup egg substitute or 3 egg whites)
    spray microwave safe dish with non-stick olive oil spray

    Have some fruit or yogurt with it to make your 200 calories.
    This usually holds me over for a couple hours till snack time



    I also sometimes have 1/2 cup original fiber one cereal with 1/2 cup silk almond milk with a banana for a couple hundred calories

    OR

    1/2 cup old fashioned oatmeal with cinnamon and some cut fruit added. About 200 calories there as well.
