What does breakfast look like to you?
Replies
-
It varies with me. I'm very changeable with food decisions. Never ate breakfast before and trying to stick to it.0
-
Herbal life shake - mix with milk satisfying low in calories, high protien. Quick and easy for someone that is always late in the morning.0
-
reply i usually have sargentos reduced fat colby jack cheese stick and then a snack an hr later and then lunch after that and an hr later a snack ties me over till dinner0
-
I usually have a bowl of special K, with soymilk, and sliced banana on top. Some days I'll make a fruit smoothie and scramble 2 eggs for protein to tide me over.0
-
Two hard boiled eggs, 100 calorie oatmeal and one cup of fruit.0
-
Today I had a Thomas's Bagel Thin, scrambled egg whites and a slice of 2% american cheese. A tasty and filling breakfast sandwich!0

Weekday breakfast is usually a <100 cal cereal bar and black coffee at my desk at work (uninspiring I know).
Weekends I usually have something more substantial- at about 10am (I can never eat first thing) like an omlette with smoked salmon and courgette, or baked eggs florentine (really yummy, you line a ramekin with ham or lean bacon, then top with wilted spinach and crack on an egg. The top with a little creme fraiche and low fat cheddar & bake in oven for 10 mins until golden).0 -
Usually some dairy, some grain / fiber, and some fruit. I eat a lot of the same things over & over. Feel free to peek at my diary.0
-
I do either make my own oatmeal with a glass of milk, whole wheat bagel with two egg whites or one whole egg and an egg white and cheese with a fruit. If I am in a hurry its special k cereal and a fruit.0
-
2 eggs, 1/2 cup oatmeal made with 3/4 water and 1/4 milk, a teaspoon of agave nectar and a tablespoon of chia seeds, the juice of one grapefruit, some form of greens (various lettuces, spring mix, spinach, etc) and occasionally a half cup of melon or berries. every day for almost a year.0
-
It depends. I don't like to eat the same things all the time, so each week I try to switch it up. I don't have time to cook, so it's normally a rotation of a protein bar or a SlimFast or fruit & yogurt.0
-
I eat two small slices of wholemeal toast with reduced fat peanut butter!
Mmmm gotta love that peanut butter0 -
My favorite breakfast right now is 1 cup of fruit (varies depending on what looks good) and 1/2 cup of lowfat cottage cheese. I top it with some salsa, I know that sound weird, but I love it.
It's less than 200 calories and sticks with me.0 -
FF yogurt & a piece of fruit. Sometimes I treat myself to yummy oatmeal at work. Cant' do shakes of anykind....they remind me too much of slimfast back in the mid-80's when I lived on them during jr. high school.0
-
99% of the time i make an awesome green breakfast smoothie that incorporates my daily fruit and vegetable intake... so that anything else i eat throughout the day is just a "bonus!"
there are variations of how i make it with the fruits... but the vegetables and protein factor stay the same. everything should be listed in my diary, but the basics are below:
kale
spinach
carrot (if I have some... not necessary)
greek yogurt
banana
fruit mixes (typically mixed berries or pineapple and strawberries or kiwi and other variations - this is the part that keeps it interesting!)
occasionally i'll put some flax seed oil in for absorption and other health benefits
and water of course to make it your desired consistency0 -
The days I weight train at 6am I wake up have a protein shake with half a cup of raw oats before my work out... then when i get home an hour later i have 1 whole egg and 4 egg scrambled, and the days i don't lift in the morning i usually have a 4 egg white 1 whole egg omelet with a slice of ham and cheese.0
-
I either have oatmeal (no fruit or flavorings) or Special K/milk. Once a weekend, I treat myself to an egg white omelet with vegetables and (splurge) a slice of cheese. It gets me through to lunchtime. Boy, I miss sausage, bacon and ham . . . .0
-
oatmeal,banana,yogurt0
-
Right now we are alternating between some sort of omelette or fritatta and a piece of fruit OR cottage cheese and fruit. Always have a glass of water w/lemon and green tea too. I am getting ready to start playing around w/some green tea smoothies now that the weather has warmed up.0
-
In the school holidays I have a bowl of low fat, low sugar cereal (Dorset Cereal or Rude Health). During term time I don't get time for breakfast before the school run.0
-
I just started forcing myself to eat breakfast and at the moment it's oatmeal. Not very exciting I know LOL0
-
This morning I did Trader Joes Blueberry Flax Oatmeal with sliced almonds and a half of a banana mashed in.
It was yummy and filling.
Tomorrow I'm going to try to wake up early and do an omelet to see if it keeps me fuller.0 -
I find I do great with a good amt of protein for breakfast ...just carbs (like I used to do) and I am hungry and searching.
If I have an egg or egg substitute with a couple of turkey sausage links and whole wheat bagel flat or deli flat I am pretty good until lunch time.
Its also about trying to change it up but I sure do enjoy an egg in the morning. That Turkey sausage has so much flavor I also add it to stir fry witih veggies.

I typically "run" out of the house in the morning so I eat when I get to work from my stash. Here's a typical breakfast from my diary:
Thomas' - Hearty Grains Bagel - 100% Whole Wheat, 1 bagel
Jif - Peanut Butter, 2 Tbsp. (32g)
Fresh Fruit - Banana - Medium 7 - 8" , 1 Banana
Coffee - Brewed from grounds, 1.5 cup (8 fl oz)
Sometimes I'll add:
Dannon - Yogurt Light & Fit - Vanilla, 1 cup
Or if my workout that day is a lifting day I'll swap out the coffee for:
Meijer - Whey & Soy Protein, 2 scoops / 32g0 -
I get on kicks with certain foods...for awhile I would eat two nutrigrain whole wheat waffles with nutella in the middle, like a sandwich, then I got on a kick of eating Jimmy Dean turkey sausage, egg white, cheese, on a whole grain english muffin, now I'm on oatmeal again. On the weekends it's usually egg whites, scrambled with cheese, and some turkey bacon!0
-
Lately, I've been quite lazy, so it's been one serving of Kix cereal with 1/2 cup light soy milk.0
-
I am a big breakfast eater! I like to change it up everyday....
Today I had a 100 calorie whole wheat bagel....omelet made with 2 eggs, skim milk, feta cheese and 1/4 cp mushroom with hot sauce on it. Yum!
Some other days:
Homemade oatmeal with skim milk, cinnamon, and dried cherries...sometimes I add yogurt to it
1 cp cherrios with 1/2 skim milk
1 whole wheat eggo waffle with pb on it
I could eat breakfast for lunch and dinner.....I hate to eat just a granola bar...blech!0 -
Whole grain toast and Adam's peanut butter, usually.
About once a week I have the extra time to do a two-egg omlette, and add mushrooms and cheese.0 -
This morning I had 1/2 cup FF Fage Greek Yogurt topped with homemade granola, half a banana and 1 T. cherry conserve. YUM!0
-
I always have coffee with a splash of skim milk (coffee addict...). Then, usually Special K with some cinnamon sprinkled on top! If I'm out of milk, I like to make a toad in the hole (one egg cooked into a cut-out hole in a piece of toast)! I try to keep my sugar intake low in the morning. I used to HAVE to have a big glass of OJ, but that's pretty rare now. I find that I have more energy if my sugar doesn't spike right away in the morning!0
