    my breakfast is always 2-3 pieces of fruit at home/work. at my school dining hall i usually skip breakfast, but have an early lunch of banana and peanut butter on raisin bread/multigrain bread toast.

    i don't like typical breakfast foods in the morning. i eat cereal and oatmeal for dinner (after my veggies of course) and eggs once in a while for lunch.

    Wow, I never thought to put cocoa powder in my oatmeal or yogurt!! Thanks for the ideas!
    During the week I love cottage cheese with strawberries and cantelope. My second choice is brown sugar and cinnamon oatmeal with dried cranberries. On the weekends I splurge and eat eggs, bacon or chorico, and fried potatoes!!

    My fav breakfast is a slice of whole grain bread toasted with ch. peanut butter, a bowl of cereal (usually kashi go lean crunch), greek yogurt, and then an apple or orange. I get up at 5, and spend the next 3 and 45 minutes getting the kiddos off to school. I don't eat all at once. It spaced out during that time frame. If I am in a rush then I just mix up some Shakeology.

    I have been eating either two poached eggs with one slice of whole grain toast or greek yogurt, frozen berries and a touch of honey. And of course coffee.

    Neither have so many calories that it is the biggest meal of the day...I always have plenty of calories left for healthy snacks (apple, string cheese, etc.) as well as the rest of my meals.

    My breakfast is an egg and cheese wrap and a banana. I use the low car, low fat whole wheat wrap and original egg beaters. Sometimes I put in them fully cooked bacon or canadian bacon too.

    Do you make this granola? It sounds delish!

    I use Quaker Oats Morning Oat Granola and fill it with fresh and dried fruits.

    My nutritionist recommended smaller meals every couple of hours. The reason being that when you are eating frequently your metabolism is continually running. Also, glucose levels will stay more level instead of spiking and dropping. When I am eating "good" my day will look something like:

    Breakfast (within 30 mins of waking) : Peanut butter (natural, only ingredient should be peanuts) & banana (acts as natural sweetener) sandwich (whole wheat bread).

    OR : Whole wheat toast with sugar free jam / fruit preserves (sugar free only has like ten cals per serving)

    OR: Whole wheat english muffin with egg whites and a morning star sausage veggie patty.

    I went to see a nutritonist who looked at my food diary and made some key changes for me

    breakfast - 35g traditional rolled oats
    50-80g banana
    50-100g sliced mango
    5g minced ginger
    5g clear honey
    200ml skimmed milk

    blitz the oats - add the rest and, blitz up leave for 5-10mins blitz again and enjoy - more banana thicker smoothie, more mango sweeter taste

    try it - I never eat after one of those for between 5-6 hours im full, my snacking days are behind me

    I'm not hat hungry in the morning so usually I eat cereal w/low-fat milk and fruit. My favorite "healthy" breakfast is scrambled eggs with salsa, cottage cheese and whole wheat toast.

    Bump, those oatmeal pancakes sound good! I've been making this recipe I found in Oxygen magazine (slightly altered): old fashion oats cooked on the stove, then add ff greek yogurt, honey, ground flaxseed, cinnamon, and mixed berries. Let it sit over night and eat it cold in the morning! Its to die for and u can add or subtract for different ingredients easily to taste. The orginal recipe called for maple syrup but i only had honey in the house : )

    Oat bran wrap with one egg scrambled, 1 laughing cow wedge warmed in micro for a few seconds. Maybe a slice of turkey bacon sometimes. Mmm.

    Cereal! I absolutely adore the stuff. I eat it all the time, so many flavors, and brands hot or cold. I either have that or peanut butter on toast so the peanut butter is melty.
