    That sounds lovely! I have strawberries and blueberries on Alpen no sugar added muesli with Alpro milk, and a sprinkling of granola and mixed seeds - with a dribble of half fat evaporated milk for sheer naughtiness!

    that sounds divine!

    coffee with half and half (my vice! I swear I'd give up most everything before the cream in my coffee!)

    I found it to be pretty easy to cut out the creamer, but I still add a few packs of sweetener. It's a bit of an acquired taste, but didn't take long to adjust at all.

    Weekdays - porridge (oatmeal) made with water, with a handful of raisins, a spoon of greek yoghurt and a drizzle of honey mixed in. Sometimes I'll use jam instead of honey (because it turns the porridge pink and that makes me happier than it should do at 25 yrs old. Blueberry jam is the best! - purple porridge :happy: ) Usually works out around 350 calories.

    At weekends, I'll have two poached eggs on either a toasted English muffin or a couple of slices of toast. Again, works out at around 350-400 calories. (In fact, I'd have this every day if I could be bothered to get up 15 minutes earlier to cook it, but hey, I'm not a morning person..).

    So glad to have found this cause breakfast is the hardest for me. I can't / don't eat eggs, literally makes me sick. I am trying to learn to like oatmeal, not having a lot of luck but starting to be able to eat a few bites, so I usually just eat a bagel with laughing cow cream cheese, or fiber one bar and /or apple.

    Hope everyone is having a great day!

    I've read that starting your day with creamer in your coffee actually helps you to refrain from snacking. The fat in the creamer make you feel full longer.

    Starbucks Soy Latte, yup I'm one of those, but I'd rather have that then anything else for breakfast, so for me it works.

    PLUS it actually doesn't have to bad of macros

    150 cals
    5g fat
    10g carbs (8g sugar)
    10g protein
    and 40% of my daily calcium! (not to mention the much needed caffeine :wink: )

    If I'm crunched for time usually just a protein shake with almond milk. The last couple of days however I've been going lighter, as I'm not usually too hungry in the morning, and I'd rather save the calories for later. So Tuesday I had a slice of Ezekiel 4:9 sprouted whole grain toast with 1 tsp butter and a fried WHOLE egg, and today I had another slice of said toast, but with a tablespoon of natural peanut butter. Tomorrow however, I'm going on a decent bike ride, so I made some pumpkin spice overnight oats, that I really hope turn out.

    I also like mixing 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder into 3/4 cup Greek yogurt, tastes almost like cake batter to me. I might even try adding a few chocolate chips next time. :)

    1 cup raisin bran and 1/2 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk

    1 cup fage non-fat greek yogurt, plain, plus an apple cut into slices for dipping.

    1 cup of above yogurt with a banana sliced into it and for a bonus, a half cup of special K red berries over the top.

    1 banana and a slice of franz organic seed bread toasted with some herbal tea to wash it down.

    I'm not very adventuresome for breakfast. lol

    Lately too rushed to cook, so:

    granola or Oat Squares with milk, and a spoon of peanut butter (in the cereal. ... gotta have some protein, or I'll be starving in another hour!)

    sometimes a few prunes or half a banana with it also

    coffee

    I've always been a cereal girl. My go-to breakfast is 2 1/2 cups Cheerios with 1/2 cup skim milk and a sprinkle of sugar (320 calories). If I eat my carbs in the morning, I don't crave them throughout the day. If I don't have time to eat my cheerios breakfast, I find myself fighting cravings through most of my day.
