    I workout in the evenings, so I am usually pretty hungry in the mornings. I make room for two breakfasts (or breakfast+snack).

    I have been eating 1/2 cup oatmeal with banana and scoop of peanut butter or almond butter for months. With my strength training increasing, and my running increasing, I'm finding this to not fill me up as much, so I'm trying to add an egg (hardboiled) or switch up completely. Today I did 1/4 cup rolled oats, 1/2 cup quinoa cooked with cinnamon, and 1/2 cup mixed berries topped with almond milk. I think there is still too little protein and not enough fat for this breakfast.

    On the weekends, I eat my oatmeal combo before long runs and usually have more food after.

    Usually eggs and toast with nut butter maybe a banana. Generally 2 eggs and 1 piece of toast but sometimes 1 egg and 2 slices of toast just to change things up a bit. Today I swapped out the toast for a cinnamon bun, yummers.

    Sometimes Oatmeal with some fruit or raisins and nuts thrown on top. I love oatmeal but usually on those days I feel like I'm starving to death an hour later :(

    I have started making a breakfast casserole on Sundays and then eating throughout the week for breakfast. What's great is that you can change it up by using different proteins, cheese and/or adding vegetables. Here's a picture of one I made a few weeks ago. Let me know if you'd like the recipe!

    I don't really eat breakfast now but when I did I'd have an egg white english muffin. I just put 1/4 cup of egg whites in the microwave for a minute or 2, put it in the muffin and added a cheese slice. Yum! Sometimes I'd just have an apple. I really like the Tim Horton's strawberry yogurt parfait too.

    My go to every day breakfast is fiber one cereal with banana or strawberries, after my cup of green tea. On the weekends, it will be a meal replacement shake, eggs, some restaurant, cereal, toast and coffee.

    Lately I have been eating soft boiled eggs on dry toast nearly every single day. Plus, a cup of milk with my coffee and some fruit.

    ooh, the soft boiled egg sounds good. How long do you boil to get it soft but the egg white not slimy?

    I Eat a protein bar, or a Fiber One 90 cal bar, or both. Pretty much every day. Washed down with a Diet Coke. While waiting for my coffee to finish brewing. Then I drink a pot of coffee. o:)

    Once the water hits a rolling boil I add the eggs and then turn the temp down slightly to simmer. I let it go somewhere between 7.5-8 minutes and it's perfect (imo.) No sliminess. I run them under cold water so the shells cool enough to peel them.

    I started eating this while cutting, to save a few calories (normally I'd use a bit of coconut oil when making scrambled eggs) and now it's my favorite breakfast.
