    Normally I eat fruit and spinach smoothie with Greek yogurt or Greek yogurt and 1/2 cup granola. Sometimes a bowl of raisin bran or oatmeal. There are times when I have a full breakfast (usually once on the weekend). I must eat breakfast; it truly is good for you!

    I'm lazy so I usually pop a slice of Dave's Killer Bread into the toaster and top it off with a tablespoon of Adam's organic peanut butter.
    Or I will have a Greek yogurt fruit smoothie. Hell, sometimes both.

    Coffee with heavy cream (which is 200 cal and satisfying), and then sometimes and hour or two later, an egg (hardboiled) or two (fried), or else a handful of almonds or cashews, if I'm going to class.

    Other options: spoonful of homemade peanut butter or string cheese.

    Here are a few things I enjoy for breakfast. :)

    Better Oats maple and brown sugar oatmeal (no sugar and only 100 cal-surprisingly tasty)
    1/2 cup cottage cheese and one cup of melon
    1 hard boiled egg and 1 cup of strawberries
    2 eggs over easy (no oil) and a light english muffin with double fiber
    Greek yogurt (fruit on the bottom-a little high in sugar)
    Crustless quiche made in muffin tins

    I usually have the warm beer that I left by my bedside the previous night.

    That accompanied with ashy, cigarrete laced kiss of a lonely female longing for love.

    High fiber/low carb cereals like those made by Nature's Path and Barbara's Bakery. With 1% milk. I love my cereal!! I feel naked all day if I don't start out with cereal. It's partly about the fiber, and partly about the texture/mouth-feel. I love the crunchy cereal and cold liquid at the same time. Cereal makes me happy.

    Sometimes, it's just a peanut butter and honey sandwich, though...if we're out of milk.

    Every morning I make myself a thick eat-with-a-spoon smoothie. I blend half a banana, 3 strawberries, half a green apple, some spinach leaves, two tablespoons of plain 0% yogurt and one tablespoon of 0% vanilla greek yogurt. Then I add 1/4 cup of honey almond granola. About 250 calories, absolutely delicious, super healthy and very filling!!

    On work days I make an omlette with egg beaters, mushrooms, onions, peppers, ham, cheese (different varieties) and put salsa on top. I also have an orange with it. And my coffee to start my day. Keeps me full and satisfied until lunch. On the weekends I will make homemade egg mcmuffins or have eggs, toast and sometimes bacon with my crew on Sundays.

    1.5 cups of raisin bran with milk and seasonal fruit and 16 oz. water. A couple of hours later I usually have an apple. That gets me to lunch.

    I have at least five times a week a fairly big breakfast, because it is the only meal over which I have control as far as timing is concerned. I plan all my other meals, but often eat them when there is time due to my work. The other two times I depend on work " breakfast meetings " when I try to make smart choices and so far have always stayed within my calorie allowance.
    Usually I make two eggs ( scrambled, huevos a la mexicana, omelett, poached etc ) always with some veggies, have three small corn tortillas, 2 cups of coffee and sometimes fruit.
    I used to believe that I did not have time for breakfast, but now I get up 10-15 minutes earlier and " charge " my body for the day, because often it's 7 hours or more ( here in Mexico lunch break is between 2-4:30 pm ) before I eat lunch.
    I know that a big or any breakfast is not necessary to get the metabolism started, but breaking the night's fast this way is what works for me.
