    My go to breakfast is 2-4 eggs, 1 cup of egg beaters, 28 grams of full fat cheese, 1 small tomato, 2 high fiber whole grain and flax tortillas, 150-200 grams of cantaloupe, and coffee.

    Oatmeal with flax, chia seed, peanut butter, and cocoa powder (unsweetened). Throw in a choice fruit for sweetness. Usually will hold me over for a few hours.

    I find one fried egg on a slice of wholegrain toast or 1/2 avocado on a slice of wholegrain toast super filling :) I also like a crumpet with ricotta and honey but it's not quite as filling.

    Whole wheat frozen low fat waffle with hazelnut butter. Egg whites, veggies and some ham or sausage. Oatmeal with fruit and almond milk. Fiber one cereals fill me up and keep me full for a long time.

    I recommend mixing fruits with protein (the protein will carry you) and the fruit will give you a carbohydrate boost. I like two soft boiled eggs (saves the oil for frying) with an apple and a piece of cheese. About 260 calories.

    Or try juicing; it can be "pricey" (both monetarily and in terms of calories) but always gives me a great morning boost and I'm good for a while.

    I like cottage cheese with fruit (frozen works well, or fresh) and a sprinkling of nuts.

    Or a piece of toast with an egg and some avocado!

    My go-to breakfast during the week when I work is usually a variation of:

    - 1 boiled egg (sometimes fried if I'm feeling extra wild in the morning)
    - 1/2 whole wheat bagel (careful with this one, the calories are sometimes still high), 1 whole wheat english muffin or 1 slice of whole wheat toast
    - peanut butter on the days I don't eat the egg
    - a serving of cheddar cheese
    - a serving of whatever fruit I have handy; this week has been cantaloupe, oranges, and wild blueberries
    - 1/4 cup cottage cheese (instead of cheddar cheese)
    - a smoothie (which would have fruit, spinach, plain greek yogurt, ground flax seed and chia seeds in it). Smoothies are GREAT for breakfast I find!

    Obviously I don't eat it all every day, but I switch things around and eat less some days and more the other. Variety is the spice of life :)

    Some of my go-to filling breakfasts:

    - A slice of 100% whole wheat toast with a tablespoon of natural crunchy peanut butter and a sliced banana
    - Sliced hardboiled egg and 1/4 of an avocado on whole wheat toast
    - Starbucks perfect oatmeal with the 100 calorie package of mixed nuts, a sprinkle of cinnamon and sliced up banana (when I'm traveling)
    - 1/2 cup Low fat cottage cheese and blueberries
    - 1 cup of 0% plain greek yogurt with a sliced peach, a tablespoon of chopped walnuts and 2 tspns of honey drizzled on top (also my dessert or dinner sometimes, haha!)

    Light English muffin, fried or scrambled egg, Laughing Cow wedge or 50g avocado, one strip of turkey bacon, slice of tomato, slice of onion. I like it because I can have the whole thing if I'm really hungry or only use half the muffin/cheese to reduce calories while still getting plenty of protein and healthy fats.

    I also like 1/2 cup low-fat cottage cheese, 75g blueberries or raspberries, and 1Tbsp honey. It's a classic combination for a reason!

    My favorites are:

    - 2 hard-boiled egg whites, 2 cups of spinach, 1tbsp chopped onion, handful of cherry tomatoes and 1 tsp olive oil

    - Quaker Real Medley Oatmeal Cup

    - 1 egg fried in 1 tsp olive oil topped with slice of ham and cheese w/ side of fruit or veggie

    - 2 tbsp. peanut butter w/ 1/2 apple or 3 celery stalks

    These are all between 120 and 300 calories and keep full from about 7am until 12 or 1pm.

    I've tried the whole yogurt-and-fruit thing for breakfast, and it was yummy, but it didn't fill me for long. Probably because I'm a nursing mother; my baby is a fast-growing boy and takes up a lot of calories. Scrambled eggs, bacon, and whole wheat toast for me. To make it speedier, try microwaving your bacon. Plus I can't do without coffee in the mornings.

    I have tried so many variations of breakfast and the only thing that truly fills me up is...one slice of Milton's multigrain toasted with two over-medium eggs on top. Once in awhile, I may put a little hot sauce on it or a bit of avocado, but that's about it. It is simple and filling.

    Special k (measured to 30 grams) and natural plain yoghurt over it. YUM ! I look forward to it every morning.

    A cooked 3/4 cup of steel cut oats or another choice rolled oats {the real good stuff that takes 15 minutes to cook.} I cook up a big pot every 4 days put the rest in the fridge, covered so it doesn't dry out , add a bit of water to moisten each morning and reheat in the micro of 1 minute.

    Add almond milk unsweetened and 1/2 tsp of honey. Yummy.

    Keeps me full for a good 4 to 5 hours.
    I have a plum, or a peach,or a 1/2 banana , or mango &orange on the side. It must be fresh fruit to go towards my 3 servings daily{2 cups}.

    My everyday breakfast, with a low-carb focus:

    4 large Omega 3 eggs
    5 Egg whites
    Coffee

    Sometimes I add bacon
    If I did an early morning practice or workout I add a glass of milk with Whey and a slice of toast with butter.
