    My usual breakfast is 1/4 cup (dry weight) Whole grain Cereal consisting of steel cut oats, bulgar, buckwheat cooked up with a 1/4 cup of raisins and 2 Tbl. ground fresh peanuts, cooled off with a splash of almond milk and a little Equal. And most important Black Strong Coffee. It will hold me till lunch unless I'm on a long hard ride then I may need a S.Bch. To Go Bar or a piece of oatcake to tide me over.

    That would be 2 pieces of pancake with honey, an egg, some crispy bacon, a fresh banana and of course, a cup of coffee.

    Since it's healthy to have about half your calories for breakfast (linked to greater weight loss), I do that.
    I almost always have:
    1 banana
    12 oz skim milk + 1 serving Carnation instant breakfast + 2 T malted milk powder
    1 slice Brownberry whole wheat bread + 1.5 T Skippy natural peanut butter

    A frittata with spinach, mushrooms, tomatoes, bacon or sausage, herbs, onion, hot peppers, and whatever else I might have that sounds good. This reminds me that I haven't made one in a while but I love them.

    Lately it's been a protein shake with Optimum Nutrition vanilla ice cream flavor and milk.

    Oh, and coffee. Always coffee.

    Depending on the day, I might have...

    Whole wheat toast with a tablespoon of peanut butter (plus a little sea salt) and skim milk
    Chex whole wheat squares with skim milk
    Clif bar
    Green smoothie (Greek yogurt, frozen fruit, banana, spinach, almond/soy milk, flax seed)

    They all keep me full until lunch. I'd like to eat oatmeal more often too.

    I have some type of lean red meat, egg-whites, cheddar cheese and Mrs. Dash almost every morning. Sometimes I'll add fruit or a tomato (or I'll save those for something else I have planned for another meal that day). And yes...that totally keeps me full for a very, very long time.

    "half your calories for breakfast" Now that's good information. If I can't eat more before exercising I'll have to try to work in a midmorning second breakfast . Thanks for the info.

    1/2 T olive oil in a pan, then I saute some combination of: onion, zucchini, eggplant, green pepper, hot pepper, mushrooms. I eat the big plate of hot sauteed veggies with some salsa and one or two scrambled eggs. And black coffee, fresh-ground and strong.

    I don't have a go-to breakfast, I make & eat whatever I wake up craving that day.

    Be it Oatmeal, French Toast, Denver Omelet, Chorizo, Egg & Potato Burrito, etc.

    I HATE repeating meals, unless it's like ridiculously delicious and slightly addicting >.<

    Feel free to add me and view my Food Diary for ideas. I'm always full and satisfied.

    I also post pictures and recipe links of ALL my daily meals.

    It's just another way to keep me accountable!

    I just started this bulletproof coffee thing and so far it has been a pretty good replacement for the huge breakfast meals I usually eat.

    :huh: :noway: :grumble:
