    I eat the same thing almost every day for my first meal, although I usually wake up around 11 so I call it lunch. But I'll have Special K cereal, with fat-free skim milk, with chunks of chopped up banana in it. So yummy.

    I either eat a wrap stuffed with homemade refried beans, avocado, light sour cream, zucchini and onion. If i have leftover rice that needs to be eaten I'll throw that in too. On mornings where I am in a rush I will have half of an Alfresco's Apple Sausage and a piece of gluten free toast with a small amount of butter.

    I'm not a big fan of hot oatmeal, but have you tried "overnight oats"? SWOON. I love these.

    I like to make a "mocha" version with about 1/2 Tablespoon instant coffee and a small amount of chocolate chips. I also really like the peanut butter banana one on the page linked here, and I made a peach pecan one all the time last summer. YUM.

    Otherwise I have something like a green smoothie, or a yogurt (Muller corner yogurts, mmm) with a piece of fruit, or a scramble made with eggs, veggies, and chicken sausage. Cereal when I'm desperate (never been a huge fan). Sometimes I just have coffee and eat a slightly earlier lunch.

    I typically eat light breakfasts and then a light snack around mid-morning. Fruit like a banana, orange or berries is great. I also love hummus with a 100 calorie deli flat. My diary is open, so you can take a look if you like

    I like to change my around every day to keep it exciting. I will have granola with FF milk and a yogurt, or 1/2 honey wheat bagle with 1Tbl pb, or oatmeal with FF milk and a hard boil egg. I will even have a WW tortilla shell with egg beaters and 1/4 C shredded light cheese. These all keep me full til my next meal.

    I've been making smoothies- 1/2 cup of fat free yogurt, ice, and some fruit. I don't really like eating breakfast that much, but a smoothie is easy to make and I can take it with me when I head out for the gym, so I can sip it along the way and finish it after my workout.
    On weekends I like to make eggs- 1 egg with black beans, salsa, sriracha, some kind of veggie mixed in, and a low fat string cheese melted on top.
    A serving of almonds also works too.

    Peanut butter on whole wheat toast! Actually, I've started replacing the real stuff with pb2, but if I can squeeze in the Skippy I will!:)

    Two eggs scrambled with some kind of veg (red pepper, mushroom, onion, spinach...) and some grated parmesan. Sometimes taco seasoning, sometimes vadouvan (Indian) seasoning. Topped with salsa or once in a while, half an avocado. Delicious.

    I eat oatmeal often and I change up the fruit... peaches, raspberries, apples, dates. Sometimes I have greeek yogurt with fruit instead. I like egg white omlets and turkey sausage sometimes. I HATE turkey bacon...its gross to me. I can eat cereal, like cherrios, every morning for weeks or just two slices of toast with peanut butter and a banana...to go. Sometimes I have a protien shake/smoothie for breakfast. I like to switch it up too, but I do not get fancy on the week days. I'm too busy for that. On the weekends I'll get fancy.... you know like meet my friends for breakfast! I eat egg whites of course.... ;) My meals are somewhere around 200 to 260 each. You do need breakfast to start your metabolism and I believe it is, in fact, the most important meal of the day. Good luck.

    I'm boring. Every weekday I take my breakfast to work and it is almost always Greek yogurt, berries and a quarter cup of Grape Nuts.

    On the weekends when I have more time I have bacon, a veggie omelet and toast.

    Like I said, boring!

    But I like it that way.

    I try to avoid high carb first thing in the morning cuz it just doesn't fill me. I go for a very thick protein shake with 30g protein and some fiber added in
