    It doesn't need to be. There's no jump start that occurs. Some people it helps keep them at a calorie deficit by starting with something; others like to save their calories for later in the day.

    However, some of my favorite breakfasts are:
    Waffles with pb and fruit
    Greek yogurt with blueberries or bananas added.
    1 whole egg, 2 egg whites scrambled with a little sharp cheddar cheese and salsa
    Cheerios and almond milk

    What do you like?

    How many calories do you budget for breakfast?

    Not true as an absolute.

    I like Greek yogurt with fruit, Fiber One and nuts added....protein, fiber, and a dose of healthy fat

    Oatmeal made with milk (for protein)....again add nuts or stir in peanut butter. This can be made ahead...google crockpot or refrigerator oats

    Many people swear by eggs. You can make these ahead & freeze. Bake in a casserole dish & freeze portions for breakfast burritos our your own McMuffins (on a high fiber wrap, or English muffin).

    I currently don't really eat breakfast during the week. I'm just not hungry in the mornings so I usually have a half cup of whole milk with two shots of espresso. On the weekends I'll sometimes have waffles with peanut butter, a banana with peanut butter, a fried egg and cheese sandwich, or Greek yogurt with frozen raspberries and granola.

    What's your breakfast budget (calories)? I eat around 700-900 calories for breakfast. That's what it takes for me to feel full until lunch after I'm done with my morning training. Everyone is different. If you are a breakfast person, figure out what foods make you feel full longest.

    Breakfast isn't my most important meal (lunch normally is for me) but I make sure I eat something in the am so I don't get all shaky/dizzy (possibly hypoglycemic?). I eat oatmeal, with psyllium husk and banana each am. Sometimes I have stirfried zukes, spinach, egg white, chicken, with raw tomato and red peppers with a touch of vinegar. I've been sticking to oatmeal because it kept me fuller longer than a bowl of cereal. (I can't eat wheat so no toast for me)

    Most days I eat eggwhites with steel cut oats & fruit. When I'm in a hurry I make a shake with Almond milk, protein powder, dry oats and a banana. Keeps me full till lunch, both are about 300 calories!

    I usually have eggs (fried, scrambled, boiled, poached etc) and a vegetarian sausage and toast. I'm too fuzzy headed to be creative in the morning!! I do try to get some good protein in tho because it seems to keep me nice and full :)

    Ignore the bit where they mention kippers, that's a whole separate breakfast and has no place in a fry up!! Also brown sauce is essential and no one ever has three fried eggs, just one or two :)

    Also we have what is known as the "drunken fry up" which is basically what it sounds like - just be careful not to burn yourself (or the food)!!

    I love eggs in the morning, in a variety of ways including:

    - 2 egg omelette, sweetened with stevia, filled with berries and topped with a few slices of sauteed banana or apple & a little tinned coconut milk. (Gorgeous! - You can also sprinkle 1 tbsp unsweetened dessicated coconut over the omelette whilst its cooking).

    - 2 egg omelette filled with a sprinkling of feta or goats cheese, rocket or spinach and a couple of baby tomatoes (can add ham or chicken to this, and then the cheese is optional).

    - 2 egg omelette filled with smoked salmon, a teensy bit of lower fat cream cheese and dill (can add broccoli/asparagus/spinach/rocket to this).

    {All of the above fried in a tiny bit of coconut oil or grass-fed butter}.

    - 2 eggs whisked with 2 tbsp tinned coconut milk, 1 tbsp dessicated coconut and some stevia to sweeten, microwaved in a bowl for approx 1min 30 seconds, topped with 2 more tbsp tinned coconut milk. (This is my lazy breakfast and wont win any prizes for presentation but it tastes like coconut egg custard/sweet crustless quiche. I love it when im rushed for time).

    You can also make an egg-based N'oatmeal on the stove by whisking eggs, ground almonds/coconut flour, stevia & coconut milk over the heat until thickened to a porridge-like consistency.

    Eat whatever you want if it fits in your calories. You don't have to stick with "breakfast food." I think we are so programmed to eat foods like cereal or eggs for breakfast that when we don't it seems weird. I personally rarely eat "breakfast food" for breakfast, but then I also usually don't eat what would be my breakfast until close to noon. Even when I do eat earlier though, I've had things like spaghetti or pizza, lol. My most important meal of the day is dinner personally.

    You should be eating 300-400 Mac for breakfast. Eating too much expands your stomach. You need to trick it and eat. Less so it will shrink. And you should have a light snack in between breakfast or lunch.
    --730-2 prices Peameal. 3/4cup egg whites with 1/3cup mozza= 300 calories..
    Workout 9-11am.
    --11am protein shake.=120 calories...
    --12:30pm lunch-- 6-8onz, proteins(chicken fish beef) and green veggies= 300-400 calories
    --3pm snack is 4-6onz proteins 1cup green veggies and Greek yogurt =250-350 calories
    --6pm dinner is 6-8onz meats and veggies=400 calories
    --9pm snack is 30g almonds and a tbsp peanut butter

    I take in between 1680-1750 calories a day.. This diet is the keto diet.. No carbs what so ever unless from your green veggies... First month on the diet was 27 lbs gone..

    20g oats, 140g summer fruits, 100g greek yoghurt, 1/2 cup of almond milk, vanilla essence. Blend together.

    1. 1 cup cheerios
    2. 1 cup fat free milk
    3. 1 scoop protein powder (vanilla or chocolate)
    4. 1/2 grapefruit
    • 362 calories
    • 55 grams carbs
    • 3 grams fat
    • 32 grams protein
    I feel the carbs are a good energy start for the day, you can add a little more fat percentage later.
