I have chosen to stick religiously to weetabix for brekkie for the first few weeks as I know it will keep me content until lunchtime...

What do you guys have for brekkie?

    A piece of bread and butter, some cold meat e.g. ham or chicken and a slice of cheese, sometimes I add a boiled egg.

    Been working abroad recently, and not much choise for breakfast. Have found that 2 hard boiled eggs (just 1 yolk though) and 1 flatbread, followed by a small pot of natural yoghert and a teaspoon of honey kept me going for ages!

    Do you think some scrambled egg on a slice of wholemeal toast would be OK for brekkie?

    It varies, but its usually either greek yogurt with kashi honey almond flax mixed in, or whole-grain english muffins with light cream cheese & a bit of strawberry preserves :)

    I have a single serve (1 Cup) of Nutragrain (.25 of a cup of 2% milk) and a 8 Oz Cup Latte made on 2% milk with 1.5 sugars.
    Under 300 Calories.

    for you... 1 slice of bread is about 55 Calories. plus however many eggs you use... probably not bad at all..

    i usually have a shake...

    on the days i have personal training session i either have boiled eggs on wholemeal / grainy toast or a shake and a cold boiled egg (i cook heaps and keep them in the fridge for when i need an energy fix). I have chooks, so plenty of eggs, and it's the perfect snack that actually provides good energy.

    Protein Shake and Wholemeal toast with Peanut Butter. Getting a bit bored of that now so am going to try change it up with some eggs/oatmeal.

    Porridge with water always allows you calories to put a little bit of golden syrup in :) so it tastes nice and you can change what you put in it aswell so its always differnt :)

    This sounds odd, but it’s quick and easy and under 300 calories.

    90 cal 2 Jennie-O turkey breakfast links (I cook a batch and keep them in the freezer – take them out as needed and nuke)
    66 cal 2 teaspoons of natural creamy peanut butter (none of that trans fat and sugary junk!)
    120 cal 2 slices cinnamon raisin bread (Safeway house brand is good)

    Smear each slice of the bread with a tsp of peanut butter, add a warm sausage and fold/roll and eat – YUM-O!

    For me it varies. Some days I have:

    1 egg
    2 slices ham
    1 slice cheese
    Sandwich thin

    I scramble the egg and toast the bread. Then make a sandwich out of it

    Or I have:

    1 pouch Better Oats
    8oz Bolthouse Farms mocha cappuccino- 178 calories for 8oz and TONS of protein and vitamins and tastes like a mocha drink at Starbucks

    Or I have:

    thomas bagel thin toasted
    2tbsp either cream cheese or natural peanut butter
    8oz Bolthouse Farms Mocha Cappuccino

    For breakfast I faithfully drink my SUPERfood nutrient-dense but low-calorie protein shake either in Greenberry or Chocolate. Unless I was juicing, which I don't have time for & besides it usually costs me much more & still doesn't match up to what this does for me. I'm up this morning at 4:30 am feeling like I'm 20 again & without coffee. In Oprah's May issue she features a 9 page article on it, check it out! It's gives me sustained all day energy, curbs my cravings, and my depression & migraines have disappeared. Priceless!

    I combine this with my best friend, Oatmeal!!!l Can you say addicted! Feel free to FRIEND request me for "positive" food for thought
    each day. Have a FIT-tabulous day!! Colleen in Seattle ;)
