    Right now my favorite breakfast is a low fat Greek yoghurt (170g) with a bit of fruit and a bit of oatmeal thrown in or if I don't have Greek yoghurt then cottage cheese with fruit. Keeps me full for about 3 hours.

    I usually make eggs in a muffin pan, freeze in ziplock and heat up for 15-30 seconds like this recipe. Add some toast or oatmeal.

    Cut up fruit and non-fat greek yogurt (same container fruit on bottom) with hard boiled egg or whole wheat toast (whatever you are focusing on eating/not-eating).

    I'm not going to lie, I have tried high protein breakfasts and all sorts of stuff. Eventually I bought carnation breakfast essentials (sugar free, chocolate) and that is the only thing that keeps me full until lunch time. I used to make breakfast sandwiches for the entire week on Sunday, I'd wake up and make eggs or toast with peanut butter, blah blah blah. It's fast (I mix it while preparing my lunch for the day) and easy to drink (I drink it while doing my morning stretches with my cat).

    I'm sure liquid breakfast isn't right for everyone but it's the only thing I can stick to without wanting to eat every ten minutes at work!

    I usually have a rotation of three different things. First is 1 cup of non fat plain Greek yogurt with 1/3 cup of Kind granola( I like the maple clusters) with a tsp of pure maple syrup drizzled on top. Second is overnight oatmeal. 1/4 c old fashioned oats, 1/4 cup plain non fat Greek yogurt, 1/3 c almond milk, tbls PB2, 1 and a 1/2 tsp chia seeds, a tsp honey and one chopped banana. Mix all together in a jar and let sit overnight. Last one is two eggs in a light Flat Out wrap with 1 slice of cheese and some Spike seasoning sprinkled on top. All very filling and yummy.

    I bought a new cereal (for me) called Hi-Low. I like the maple pecan flavor with blueberries and milk. It has only 1g sugar per 1/2 cup and 12g protein. They add soy protein to it and it ends up being quite filling because of that. And also, fast. No oven use!

    Half an orange and 5 strawberries. Freeze over night then throw in a blender with 1/2 cup of cold water and a dash of stevia. Blend for about 30 seconds. Only 68 calories but tastes like a whole lot more. Fills you up too. I use navel oranges as they are sweeter.

    I often make my breakfasts ahead of time so that I can just reheat in the morning.

    This is what fills me up the longest but not what I have every morning. I scramble egg whites in a tupperware bowl in the microwave at work and then mix in crumbled applegate farms chicken sausage patty (also microwaved) and a little cheddar. No stove or oven required.

    I am a huge fan of a couple of eggs or egg substitute scrambles.

    spray a microwave safe dish with cooking spray, add 2 eggs or equiv. and scramble. Microwave on high for 45 seconds (your oven may vary so watch the first few times to get the right time for your microwave). That will give you some nice fluffy eggs. MIcrowave a pair of Morning start Hot and Spicy sausage patties, chop the sausage and mix with the eggs. I add a dash of hot sauce and some fresh cracked black pepper.

    That is my base dish - you can add a slice of cheese if you want or if you need some carbs, scoop it all onto your whole grain bread of choice (bagel, toast, english muffin, etc). Of course, cheese and bread can be high calorie adds so choose carefully.

    you can also adapt this lots of different ways - you could swap out the Morning star patties with other meat substitutes. You could add a dollop of Ketchup or better yet, a bit of chopped onion or sliced Tomato if you have time.

    I like to have a sachet of Quaker oat so simple and a handful of frozen blueberries with 100 mils of full fat milk and 100 mils of water. 270 CALORIES

    4 liquid egg whites (100 cal) and 2 packets instant oatmeal (260 cal). This keeps me going for a good 3 hours, at least.

    I warm up a fry pan to medium while I get dressed, then I fry 3 eggs (mixed) in a pan, split in half, put one thin slice of ham and a bit of cheese on my half, let cheese melt and then roll it in a Tumaros low carb whole wheat wrap; the other half I turn into a hamNCheese sandwich omelet for the husband (takes about 10 minutes total, you can cook in advance and nuke)

    On the go egg muffins: You can put whatever kind of veggie, meat and or cheese in these.
    Make a bunch ahead of time, wrap them and put them in your freezer, than just grap and go.

    6 eggs whisk with some cheese, salt, pepper one or two tablespoons milk and what ever veggies you want. I put kale, spinach, onion, garlic, peppers zucchini and mushrooms, you saute the veggies in some olive oil then add to the the egg mixture and I used a ice cream scoop to fill the muffin try, makes 10 cook in oven for 20 min. oven temp 350

    Looks great & easy to make. I'm going to make up a batch on Monday. I have daughter & young granddaughters living with me now. I'm Type 2 Diabetic so I've found its better for me to prepare my food separately & ahead of time when possible. My kind of recipe! Thx

    I've finally had a chance to make the egg muffins. I used onion, banana pepper, small Jalapeno chopped fine, shredded zucchini, sharp cheddar & fresh parsley. I also crumbled up & cooked/drained 4 sausage patties. Delicious! Thx again.

    Smoothies are my best friend!

    80g of frozen fruit (this way it lasts longer and tastes better)
    150ml Skimmed milk
    10g raw porridge oats
    50g fat free yogurt (any flavour you want)
    1/2 tbl spoon honey (optional)

    300 calories

    I normally have a slice of toast and then I'm hungry in time for lunch :smile:

    I find a nice and filling breakfast is a tuna wrap... Lots of cucumber, tomatoes and lettuce and 1 serving of tuna. Keeps me full until lunch..

    I love southwestern egg beaters and laughing cow cheese. Spray a small bowl with pam and microwave for about a minute, stir and microwave briefly till cooked. Add some strawberries or melon.

    I love overnight oats, which are super easy to make and no cooking time! Just take 1/2 cup rolled oats, 1/2 cup milk (or yogurt), and add to it what you like. I find it's most filling with banana mushed into it, along with cinnamon, almonds, and chia seeds.
    If I have time I make eggs with toast and some pepper.
    And, my blender just broke, but I love making a protein shake in the morning! Make it extra thick by adding frozen or fresh bananas and some protein powder.
