Any ideas?

    I'm so busy getting kids to school, so I always have a Shakeology Meal Replacement Shake for breakfast and it keeps me full until my snack, (and sometimes even through to lunch)

    for on the go i stop at McDs and aviod the regular stuff i want.....instead i settle for an Egg McMuffin with NO cheese (the one with canadian bacon not sausage) and i get apples instead of a hash brown....

    McMuffin w/ no chees---250 cals
    Apples w/ no dip----35 cals (add dip it is 100 cals)

    I stay full and feel like i got my fast food fix for the day...

    at home i go with the egg white/1 whole egg scramble with turkey sausage crumbles or turkey bacon...then i add fruit....i also keep boild eggs in fridge for the week and add a couple slices of microwave bacon and pepperidge farm light breads (toasted) with the Best Life Butter spray....

    and again if you dont like breaksfst food...eat whtever you want....nothing wrong with dinner food for breaksfast :-)

    I have Kashi Go Lean Honey Almond cereal most mornings because it is quick and easy, but on other mornings what works well for me is 3/4 cup of liquid egg whites and about a few slices of avocado. The protein and good fats I get from that meal hold me until at 10am, sometime longer.

    1/2 cup egg sub topped with sauted onions, mushrooms, and baby spinach. Then I add diced tomatoes and lite sour cream. It keeps me so full I have to remember to eat lunch. Sometimes I will add a piece of crumbled turkey bacon. I also have a cup of coffee with SF creamer. Start to finish it takes less than 10 minutes.

    Hungry Girl's (www.hungry-girl.com) website and books have a lot of great ideas of egg things you can quickly cook in a mug. I just got an email about some new ones today:

    the best breakfast protein shake i find is the Slim Fast Chocolate Royale Powder with Protein...they all have some protein but this is higher.....mix it with 1 cup fat free milk...ice and fruit (if you like) and go...the shake has 200 cals mixed...the bananan depending on size will add 60-100 cals. The skakes will fill you up and blending them with ice makes the volume more and beats away the grittyness that some shakes have.

    Rite Aid in the GNC section has bags of Whey Protein powder too that are great the bags are black and have vanilla, caramel, mocha, chocolate, etc.... they arent bad but usually there needs to be fruit in there to enhance the taste

    most protein shakes are///powder of choice, milk or fat free half/half, fruit is desired, and ice. I use the MAgic Bulet to mis them up and go....you can also add yogurt if you want more in there.
