    I like Jimmy Deans Turkey Sausage Biscuts and Jimmy Deans Turkey Sausage, Egg and Cheese Cressants , when I have them I feel like I have had something from a Fast Food Restaurant (which is my weakness) . Fast Food Restaurants breakfast are way to high in calories and the Jimmy Deans stuff is half the calories and taste just as good.

    I absoluetly love those...I just hate that I can't find them everywhere I go! :huh: That is annoying, but I know wut u mean about the fast food thing. They are yummy!!!

    This one takes a bit more work, but its what I do on Sundays as I'm preparing dinner.
    Breakfast of a champion!

    poached egg whites (i used a non stick 4 egg poacher, immersed in a skillet of water to make it easy). I use cartoned whipping whites to make it even easier.
    Salt pepper to taste
    canadian bacon (you can cook turkey bacon or use a vegan soy based substitute)
    low fat cheese (pick your preference)
    Orowheat whole grain sandwich thins

    Season and poach whites. Remove from poacher, store in zip top bags.
    To make a sandwich, use 1 egg white, cheese of choice and canadian bacon. I wrap in a paper towel, put in a zip top or container and pack along with my lunch. (i eat breakfast at work when I've more time while I'm checking emails, printing reports, etc.)
    I've sauteed mushrooms, peppers, onions and etc to make an omelet sandwich....
    Good luck!!

    Oatmeal - 1/2 cup that I make with almost double the recommended water - I cook it a long time so it doubles in volume so I have a nice BIG bowl. I add 1 tbsp of naturally more peanut butter and either a half of banana or half of an apple. SOOOOOOOO good

    oooo that sounds really good cuz i'm not a big oatmeal fan but I'm down for trying something new...Thanx for sharing that!

    I'll either have 2 eggs (scrambled or hard boiled) and a piece of fruit
    OR
    1/2 cup cottage cheese with a handful of berries and a little granola sprinkled on top.

    I've found if my breakfast is of high protein content it takes a longer time for me to feel hungry again.
    If I have something like a muffin- I'm starving again in about an hour.

    My favorite is an egg sandwich!

    Just fry up an egg quick, or whites.. then I put it between two slices of bread or bagle things, add a slice of cheese... voila! Yum!

    Quick and easy! :)

    I'd check the sosium in these.Processed foods have very high sodium!!

    You can scramble an egg white and place it on top of a whole wheat english muffin with a little fat free cheese.... I usually forego the cheese all together though.

    Another one I like is A fruit smoothie. I buy the GNC Lean Shake Vanilla or Strawberry powder. It is only 180 calories when mixed with water and ice. I like to add 1/2 cup of frozen fruit to the protein powder and add 1 cup of water to it. My breakfast is under 300 calories then and I'm not hungry until Lunch.

    You can also try oatmeal with 1 TBS sugar free or Light Maple Syrup, a sprinkling of nutmeg and cinnamon.

    I workout in the morning so the first thing in my belly at 5 am is 1 scoop of Optimum Gold Whey Protein and 5 g of creatine. Following my workout I have the same thing.

    Very soon after I get to work at 7 am, I have my Quaker Old Fashioned Oats (Oatmeal). A couple of hours later, I have 3-4 hard boiled egg whites. The eggs are more of a snack, but since they are eggs, I feel they are breakfast food.
