    On the mornings when I return home after working nights I have: 1/2 cup regular oatmeal w/1 cup water cooked in the microwave. Add 1/2 tsp. cinnamon and 1/2 tsp. Splenda and 1/4 cup Lite Original Soymilk...Yum! Sometimes I might have a fruit or lite yogurt on the side.

    On the mornings I didn't work the nightshift, I rarely eat breakfast. I've been doing that for years, but that's just me :happy:

    I make a batch of these almost every week for breakfast.

    Apple Chicken Sausage
    1 lb ground chicken
    1 granny smith apple, peeled and diced small
    3 tsp poultry seasoning
    1 tsp red pepper flakes
    dash of salt and pepper

    Mix all together, get all squishy with it. Form into 10 patties. Heat pan with about 1 TB olive oil. Once pan is hot, add patties. Cook for about 3 minutes on one side, then flip. After cooking 3-5 minutes on the other side I tend to add a TB or two of water to the bottom of the pan, to keep them moist while they finish cooking. Couple more flips and they're done.

    Each patty is 89 cal, 3 carbs, 4 gm fat, 9 gm protein. I typically have 2-3 for breakfast. Yum.

    Greek yogurt with berries
    OR
    Protein bar if I'm in a rush
    OR
    Rice cakes with ham and philadelphia light
    OR
    If I'm feeling greedy bacon, eggs and brown seeded toast.

    The last one being my favourite and what I'm having tomorrow! Yum!

    Either:

    Scrambled eggs & veggie sausage
    Scrambled egg and smoked salmon on wholewheat bagel
    Oatmeal

    I'm going to start putting protein powder in my oatmeal and also try out protein powder smoothies.

    Other than Protein Shake, Cereal or Oatmeal during the week, I love making omelets on Saturday's.

    *Precut your veggies and keep refrigerated to add when needed.

    Two egg whites
    One whole egg
    Mushrooms, Peppers, Onions, Etc.
    Half Whole Wheat Pita
    1/4 cup of crumbled turkey or chicken sausage
    Small amount of shredded cheese

    *I add a side of Fruit and Turkey Bacon when I do not add the meat above

    I switch it up ... use egg beaters and cook ahead frittatas, use morning star veggie sausages and scramble egg beaters for a quick sandwich, cereal with almond milk, english muffin with peanut butter, though i am switching to PB2 as soon as it comes in to reduce the fat calories and steel milled oats... but I'll use high fiber quaker on occasion...

    On days I'm not going to school: Van's brand of power grains waffles, a fruit of my choice, and cereal (Honey Nuts Cheerios or Kashi Go Lean plain.) On days that I go to school or work: Waffles and a Luna Bar, or a Luna Bar, an apple, and also pack a ziploc of almonds and dried fruits for a mid-morning snack.

    I mostly eat a slice of lingongrova (A swedishbread which contains lingonberry. It's delicous) with super-thin slices of ham. It's low on calories and keeps me full to lunch.

    Only very well balanced protein shakes for breakfast. Gets all the vitamins and minerals that are needed for the day without having to spend a lot of time cooking to make it happen. I liked the Qivana Chocolate Shake for that but since I just ran out I'm trying to find a replacement that has lower carbs and cals. I really like the press that dub protein 2.0 has received and will probably try a sample of that next.

    For a quickie i like a serving of Special K Protein cereal and if handy i like to cut up half a nanner in it with fat free milk or a Yoplait Vanilla Greek Yogurt (100 calorie) with half nanner or nuts/granola or fruit.

    If i have the time. i like to throw in a piece of butterball turkey bacon (1 slice is 25 calories), scramble in 1/4 cup of egg white and one whole egg. Piece of plain wheat toast - sometimes i throw about a teaspoon of sugar free syrup and it tastes like a bfast sandwich! Yums!

    On the weekends - Protein pancakes! MY hubs is a master! :D

    BTW - the Qivana Shake was 220 cals and 19 carbs. The Dub one is 90 cals, 3 carbs and 20 protein.

    When I went gluten free a few months ago, I decided to change my breakfast completely! Now I eat 1/2-1 cup of almonds and pistacios and then raw vegetables (really!) like anise or radishes or celery and I also eat some fruit (berries, grapes). It all seems so much more satisfying and I love the crunch!

    It varies. I try to stay under 300 calories for breakfast. Here are some ideas-
    - egg sandwich with slimwich buns (90 calorie buns), egg and deli ham
    - Cheerios or Honey Bunches of Oats
    - Whole grain waffle with creamy peanut butter
    - Banana with creamy peanut butter
    - Strawberries on a whole wheat waffle
