    my breakfast can range from 400-800 calories...

    today it will be probably close to 600...1 egg, 2 egg whites, ground sausage, cheese, 2 tortiallas, coffee with cream and sugar and maybe a glass of juice,

    or

    Eggs, bacon, cheese on bread

    or

    Fruit loops, with skim milk, toast with butter...yes real butter

    now that summer is hear probably more smoothies with almond milk, protien shake, frozen fruit, flax seeds etc...

    as for fibre I have no idea

    Usually 400 - 600 cals, occasionally more on the weekend if I'm having a cooked brunch.

    Around 5 - 10 g fibre (for breakfast)

    20 - 30 g fibre per day total.

    About 350 calories:
    I have Alpen, with whole milk, some turkey bacon on the side, and some green tea. No idea how much fibre. I honestly don't keep track. I do eat a lot of wholegrain, fruit and veg throughout the day so my fibre level is probably pretty high throughout.

    My breakfast is 180-200 calories, but I also have a morning snack about 2-3 hours later that's about the same size.

    I average about 40 g fiber a day.

    Steel cut oatmeal, fresh fruit and coffee. Under 200 cals and I'm too lazy to look up the fiber.

    Generally between 180 - 250 calories. I'm really into my gluten free musli with full fat natural yogurt at the moment but I'm sure I'll get sick of it eventually (happened with porridge).
    Only about 2g of fiber.

    Although i vary my breakfast i always keep it between about 200-450 calories.
    200 on days off, 350-450 on busy work/college days.

    it usually includes either a small greek yogurt or some fruit like berries or grapes, porridge oats or shredded wheat and a scrambled egg.

    Today it was 5g of fiber but it goes up to about 10 sometimes

    Breakfast usually runs about 400 calories consisting of beans, eggs, a berry smoothie and 2 cups of coffee w/ sugar. I average about 30 g of fiber per day, 15 of which is eaten at breakfast. It is 6 hours from my breakfast to my lunch because there is just no time, and this keeps me full through most of the morning.

    Favorite breakfast is a fruit smoothie with blended frozen strawberries and blueberries plus Greek yogurt, water and no-calorie sweetener, totaling around 300 calories and 7g of fiber.
    For the day I usually meet or surpass my goal of 25g of fiber.

    Brekkie is around 1000 to 1200 calories (dependent on length of morning cycle commute).
    Fibre, no idea.

    Today for me it was 397 calories with 22g of fibre. It was 2 weetabix, a banana and milk. Although that includes the milk I use for the whole day, in teas and also a low calorie hot chocolate (my afternoon treat that stops me raiding the vending machines!)

    Yep.

    Most days mine is in the 260-300 range depending on how much fruit I add, it's almost always 1/2 cup yogurt, 30 grams granola, and then some combination of blackberries,strawberries,raspberries,blueberries,banana and occasionally pineapple and/or melon depending on what is good value when i am shopping. once seasons hit i imagine I'll add in cherries plums apricots etc as they show up locally
    today as an example
    263 calories
    2gr fat
    50 gr carb
    8 gr fibre
    8 gr protein


    mid morning i'll probably eat a banger or a couple of slices of bacon (I work in a hotel right beside the kitchen really bad for dieting) that will double it

    Coffee is my breakfast. Zero calories or near enough to make no difference, and it works better than fiber.
