    Every once in awhile I'll make this on a weekday, but usually on weekends (when I have more time), I make this (imagine it stacked up, from bottom to top): 0.5 english muffin, 1 tbs chevre, 0.25 avocado, 1 slice of tomato, a little red onion, a poached egg, raw spinach, and 1 tbs salsa. The whole thing is ~250 calories, 25 g of protein. I'll have one or two depending on my plan for the day.

    Weekdays: either a slice of toast with chevre and smoked salmon, or a packet of oatmeal, depending on how much time I have.

    Yes, 1/2 cup egg whites scrambled, and 1 cup tea. Or a protein shake for breakfast. This keeps me going until a 10am snack.

    Coffee and a protein shake with banana. Every. Single. Morning. (of course if I didn't enjoy it I wouldn't be drinking it)

    When I first get up (7:00):
    A homemade Americano (two shots of espresso) with a teaspoon of coconut oil.
    A Chobani (6 oz) with fruit on the bottom.
    A pint of iced ginger tea (which really helps my digestion).

    Before work (around 10:30):
    Either an egg, a bagel with cream cheese (if I know it will be a while before I can eat again), plain oatmeal with coconut milk, or almonds.

    Strawberry yogurt with vanilla and blueberry clusters, almonds, and grapes with a glass of unsweetened organic soy milk. Sometimes 2 boiled eggs. Sometimes whole wheat blueberry pancakes with some whole raspberry syrup. And a Gevalia Cafe Creations K-cup usually every morning. A glass of soy milk really keeps me full. I feel like yogurt and milk are awesome in keeping me full and losing weight.

    Cereal or a smoothie. My cereal is mini shredded wheat n' bran, coconut yogurt, sliced almonds, shredded unsweetened coconut and blueberries and or strawberries. My smoothie is usually 2 fruits (one being a banana), 2 servings of veggies (one being kale or spinach), spirulina, matcha, fish oil, scoop of whey protein. I call it my kitchen sink smoothie as who knows what else I might add to it depending on the day... chia seeds, flax seeds, cocoa powder, PB2, coffee concentrate that I make.

    Fruit and veggie smoothie. It's easy and portable. On days that I have time and want to treat myself I make vegan French toast using bananas or avocado mixed with almond milk in place of eggs and milk (add a little vanilla extract) so yummy!

    that sounds great my favorite breakfast is fresh blueberries, fresh raspberries, fat free greek yogurt. all bran buds and cinnamon, a little stevia to sweeten. I usually use 1/2 c of each berry 1/2 c of yogurt and 1/3 cup all bran buds. I let this sit for an hour before i eat it and it tastes like a yummy dessert trifle. this makes 2 servings

    Just enough to get me going out the door very early,...about a quarter cup of rice milk mixed with one Tablespoon of Hemp protein+fiber, and maybe a poached egg if I have time. Having said that, I absolutely must have something else small a couple of hours after this, such as an Almond Kind bar, but now I cruise until lunch without much effort. I used to be starving up until lunchtime, and I really think cutting out the cereal grains and toast really helped me. Of course that's me, and may not apply to you. After lunch is still tough for me at around 3pm I just want to nap, and it seems to not matter what I eat for lunch. It was really an eye opener to me how many calories I was getting in the morning just from toast and jam. I'd rather eat more at lunch and have a light dinner.

    Porridge with fruit. I have a big bag of mixed summer berries in the freezer and usually throw a handful of those in.
    Keeps me nice and full until lunch.

    this! Exactly this but with dried Cranberry and gogi berries (they were on sale, they don't taste of anything) it's all premeasured in the most adorable little jars (mini coffee jars that match my bigger jars) i honestly think I get more pleasure out of how adorable organised they look than the actual porridge!
    Lately I have been having bagel and banana but I think I.will go.premeasured some now ready for the week!

    Porridge. 30g of oats, 100ml milk, 150ml water, 15g sultanas, pinch of salt and a small banana (half sliced and put in at the start of cooking, the other half sliced and put in right at the end before eating.) Yummy :D
    Used to add a small amount of honey but I find I don't need it now.

    Oatmeal with flax cooked in almond milk. Depending on my mood, I may add various dried fruits and/or peanut butter. The fruit I add while cooking, and the peanut butter goes in after it's finished.

    Greek yoghurt/quark, frozen berries (mostly strawbs and blue - allowed to thaw a little bit or you can knock it up the night before so they've thawed overnight in the fridge), any kind of granola I fancy (or a mix of toasted oats, toasted flaked nuts and seeds), chopped/melted 70% dark chocolate and a tablespoon of maple syrup.

    Then either an orange, banana, apple, kiwi, etc.

    Oh, and black coffee.
