1/2 cup of Greek Gods yogurt with blueberries and 5 walnuts.
Yum!
A slice of Ezekial Raisin Bread with a teaspoon of almond butter.
Breakfast is my favorite!0 -
I eat the same thing every moning, 1/2 cup plain oatmeal with teaspoon of cinammon and 1 packet of Stevia, then I cook 1 mushroom 1 cup of Spinach along with 5 eggwhites..39 grams of protein for breakfast...0

I take a container of oatmeal, a container of protein powder and a container of fruit to work. I go to the cafeteria, add hot water to my oats go back to my desk - wait about 10 minutes for the water to soak in then mix in the protein powder and fruit and eat. IT does the job until snack time which is usually Greek yogurt and more fruit with some granola.0

I eat my breakfast when I get to work, so I usually do some sort of frozen breakfast sandwich like the Jimmy Dean Delights, Special K ones, or 1 Pillsbury Toaster Scrambler and coffee. (always coffee)
On weekends, it usually cereal and fruit, or toast with peanut butter and some fresh fruit, or a big family breakfast with scrambled eggs, bacon or sausage, maybe pancakes or muffins, etc. It depends if Daddy is there or what our plans are for the day. My kids like oatmeal, but I don't, so sometimes they get that while I do something else.
When I was pregnant with my first, I had gestational diabetes and much more time for myself in the morning, so I made and ate breakfast at home. English muffin sandwiches made with 1 egg zapped in a coffee mug (spray with Pam & cook for about 45-55 seconds), slice of cheese, and canadian bacon or a turkey sausage patty. 1 slice of toast with peanut butter and some sausage. Yogurt and some microwaveable bacon or sausage. I had a very small allowed amount of carbs in the morning and it was really hard to get used to and figure out what worked for me and still filled me up.0 -
I eat Total Cereal with 2 TBLS of ground flaxseed and skim milk. Not much, but I never was a breakfast eater, so I have to force myself anyway

are you limiting your cholesterol for a reason?
My typical breakfast is a hard boiled egg sprinkled with hot sauce and lime salt with a banana and 2Tbsp of peanut butter0 -
1/2 a liter of vodka and whatever food is stuck to the side of my face from the previous night.
ALthough the vodka sounds perfect I have an option!
(I hate breakfast too...)
I found this recipe:
Breakfast: Scrambled Grains with Mushrooms
Rinse, trim, and slice 1 lb mushrooms.
Put 2 Tbsp vegetable oil in large skillet over medium-high heat.

I have an omelet with 3 eggs whites and one whole egg, sometimes I add a little ham or cheese. I also have a piece of fruit, usually an apple, banana, or orange, a piece of 12 grain bread with 1 tablespoon of peanut butter, and a double mocha cappuccino. (The capp. is my treat in the morning.
). If my husband or I make some nice healthy muffins, I replace the toast with a muffin.
About 2 hours later I'm heading to work and eating a protein bar and another piece of fruit. Oh, and drinking lots of water.
I work at a horse barn so I have to have a lot of cals to get through the morning!0 -
My favorite breakfast is 4 egg whites with a bit of mozz cheese and 3 pieces of center cut bacon.
209 Calories and keeps me full till lunch. Nearing 60lbs lost here.0 -
Eggs are not unhealthy! They just have a bad rep! Try 1 egg/ 2 egg white omelette with peppers/onion/spinach/cheese.
Delicious!0 -
I'll have egg whites or oatmeal with some fruit. There's also turkey bacon or chicken bacon which has less fat.0

If you don't like breakfast, don't eat it.
I hate lunch, so I almost never eat it. It has not hampered my fat loss. The "must eat breakfast" thing is a myth.0 -
I am fine with balancing my foods for lunch and dinner but breakfast kills me!
I never know what is a good breakfast. Cereal is high in salt (which I have to watch) eggs can be fatty and high in cholesterol... I am stuck and about to give up on the normal sense of breakfast and switch to eating things like lunch and dinner foods in the morning!
Please tell me your favorite "Healthy" breakfasts.
Then just skip breakfast, eat more food at lunch and dinner time. Do whats convenient, meal frequency is irrelevent to body composition.
Anywho: Turkey Sausge, Pork Sausage, bagels, bread, pizza, eggs, cupcakes, greek yogurt protein pancakes (PM me for recipe) bacon cereal, oatmeal, uhhh i think thats it.0 -
My absolute favorite breakfast for a normal/work day with limited time, is a piece of sprouted toast with 1 tablespoon of Almond Butter on it, a banana on top cut up, then drizzle with Agave Nectar (or honey). It is SO good, and it usually holds me over until 10:30ish when i have my first snack. Bananas in the morning really do the trick!!! Also, the more you eat breakfast the easier it will become, and eventually you will look forward to it!!! It is my favorite meal of the day. Hope that helps!0

This is the best thing I've read all day!!!0 -
I love breakfast foods, but I typically eat light to heavy. Thus, if I’m going to eat traditional breakfast foods, I eat them at dinner lol!
I drink freshly-squeezed juice almost every morning. I juice one head of celery, five or six leaves of kale, one lemon, one apple and a tablespoon of ginger. After that, I’ll usually have a banana and/or some other fruit. I drink a cup or two of herbal tea with raw honey, raw lemon juice and raw apple cider vinegar, and I’m good to go until lunch.
It maybe not be something that suits you every day, but I highly suggest trying it! It’s very energizing and contains tons of vitamins and nutrients. Good luck on your journey!0 -

One of my favorite breakfasts is 1/2 Cup of Greek Style Non Fat Yogurt - I sprinkle 1/4 Cup of Pumpkin Flax Granola, 1 teaspoon of black chia seeds, and some fruit on top of it. (any type of fruit will do - 5 strawberries in slices, 1/2 banana, an apple, kiwi, whatever. I like it because it is quick and healthy. For years I avoided breakfast. I just didn't like all of the fuss in the morning. My idea of breakfast was a cup of coffee - just didn't want to get into cooking and all that stuff. I like a simple, quick breakfast, unless of course we go out to eat breakfast - then I'll enjoy a veggie omelet with whole grain toast. Keep moving forward...0

if you hate breakfast then why are you forcing yourself to eat it????0 -
So don't eat regular "breakfast" foods. You can have lunch foods for breakfast if you like and especially if they fit nicely into your calories/macros. I had a tuna sandwich for breakfast this morning
^this! Also had tuna for breakfast the other morning. I normally have a protein green smoothie and oatmeal, but if I want broccoli for breakfast, I'm going to have broccoli. After I went to Costa Rica, I had beans and rice for breakfast for a while. It was a nice switch. There are no rules. Eat what fuels you. And if your life is awesome eating dinner for breakfast, go for it!0 -
Skip breakfast then. No reason not to.0

I'm sure it's not for everyone but since I've always had a hard time eating breakfast (but I force myself to because it is important) I've recently begun having protein shakes. They're quick to make and healthy (depending on what you put it in). Plus, they help me reach my protein goals for the day! Good luck!0
-
You might want to try skipping breakfast all together for about a week.....gauge how you feel & take it from there. This method has worked wonders for several people I know! Helps your body concentrate on burning more fat for energy.....Good Luck!0

I have my protein shake every morning, an apple and banana cut up with a tablespoon of natural peanut butter between 8 and 9am and I have a pear or some other fruit around 11 and I'm good until lunch after the gym around 1:30pm.
When I hated breakfast, I use to just put in some fruit with my protein shakes as a meal replacement so I wouldn't feel sick. Slowly, I got use to eating in the morning again.
When I do high cardio days - I have a begal with cream cheese so I can burn off the carbs while spinning/bodycombat/running etc.
Try greek yogurt and berries, real oatmeal (not the quick crap) with some honey and almonds (that's freakin' yummy! now I want that! LOL) hard boiled eggs and a piece of fruit... there's a ton of stuff! I also love Special K... I'm kind of addicted and shreddies with berries or a banana and almond milk.0 -

Right now I am on a Ezekiel cinnamon raisin bread toast with almond butter, chia seeds and banana for breakfast.
Cage free vegetable fed eggs are not as bad for you as once thought.
Refrigerator oatmeal is amazing.
Breakfast for dinner is completely acceptable so dinner for breakfast is too. If you like it, eat it. I find that if I eat breakfast that I do not over eat during the day. If I skip it, for some reason I eat all day long trying to fill a ravenous hunger from out of no where. So I believe breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Dont skip it.0 -
When I am at work I eat 2 hard-boiled eggs either plain or lightly salted & peppered and one of the following:
1 packet of Rachel Ray's instant oatmeal, which I sweeten with 1 packet of honey
1 container of 90 calorie yoplait light yogurt (many flavors to choose from)
1 container of Chobani flip (a few flavors to choose from)
I eat between 8:30 and 9:30 because I heard you should eat your breakfast before 10 am to get your metabolism boosted.
The reason I do the 2 hardboiled eggs is because they are packed with protein which should help keep you full longer, and then I add one of the above items so that in my "mind" I feel like I ate more than just 2 measly eggs This usually keeps my satisfied until lunch time and it's around 300 calories give or take. 0 -
Kodiak Cakes whole wheat oat and honey flapjack mix, with crystallized ginger spread and a pat of butter. Jamaican coffee ( best in the world IMO) with International Delight white chocolate mocha creamer. Maybe a banana or fresh ripe papaya. Never get tired of this.0
-
I'll often eat leftovers from last night's dinner for this morning's breakfast. I'm not a big fan of the idea of certain foods for certain meals.0
