    why all the egg white recipes?

    not needed. no reason to not eat the whole thing.

    I like those minute muffins in the microwave made with flaxmeal. I add sweetener and a tbsp of apple or pumpkin butter to them, with vanilla extract and top it with sweetened cream cheese. 4g net carb total and just under 500 cals. That with some string cheese and a hardboiled egg (you can keep a readymade stash in the fridge), and you're set with a bigger breakfast that takes a minute to make and a minute to cook.

    chopped salad and knudsen cottage cheese
    hot green tea

    I'd look for a gluten-free oatmeal (steel cut maybe)?

    Yea but it's such a huge pain in the *kitten* to cook.

    If you soak in water and place in the fridge overnight, you can just microwave it in the morning. Makes it much easier!

    I give myself plenty of snacks all day long, so personally I usually have breakfast between 100-200 calories (the lighter the better though) and a low calorie snack or two before lunch. This works for me.

    What I eat on the weekends is a little different though and would be good for someone wanting something more satisfying to start the day. I do light toast topped with a mixture of fat free cottage cheese and sugar free preserves. 1/4 cottage cheese and 2 TBS of preserves on 2 slices of toast is filling and tasty.

    Quest bars! High in protein and fiber plus are gluten free and very filling. I love them. Cookie and cream is my favorite.

    Other ideas for on the go - hard boiled eggs, cheese stick, nuts, apple with almond butter, or trail mix. Greek yogurt with some hemp hearts or flax seed sprinkled on top is yummy too.

    Especially if someone is looking for a larger or more filling breakfast.

    I usually eat leftovers from dinner or a vegetable frittata (easier omelet). Sometimes I have smoked salmon or yogurt on the side or some fruit. I like to have 350-400 calories for breakfast and plenty of protein--if I do I'm not hungry until lunchtime.

    On heavy work out mornings, I will have oatmeal with blueberries, walnuts, cinnamon and a dash of almond milk. If I just do yoga for exercise, I will come home and make egg whites with salsa.
