    I am a diabetic, and I only have cream for breakfast (in my coffee). I have been doing this for over a year. It is fine. My HbA1c has gone down by a point, my lipids are fine, my weight is down, and my glucose readings during the day are normal.

    I boil an egg while I'm in the shower, drain it, wrap the unpeeled egg in a paper towel and toss it in my purse. Eat it at my desk with my coffee or tea, no fuss no muss. I like to get out the door quickly in the morning. :)

    I also keep some ry-krisp at work ( I'm allergic to wheat ) to eat with my egg if I need something more.

    Ditto on the overnight oats! Super easy - BUT you have to be okay with the texture and temperature (cold oatmeal).

    I also like green smoothies (spinach, banana, almond milk, PB2 and other fruit if I have it). Hard-boiled eggs, 1/4 avocado smashed onto toast, greek yogurt (try Oikos Triple Zero for less sugar) with fruit or flax for crunch.

    Forgive me, I haven't work out serving sizes or calories, but these are freakin' amazing. I made 10 regular size muffin cups and plan to eat 2 for breakfast. Like I said, I didn't work out calories. 1 minute in the microwave and some hot sauce - YUM.

    Bumping for this recipe...looks delicious!!! Thanks!

    At work I scramble one egg, one diced up (fully cooked) turkey sausage link, and half a piece of diced up WW jalapeno string cheese and microwave in 30 second intervals, stiring in between... done in under 90 secs (usually 75 secs).

    Or I take half a serving of Joseph's Lavish bread and fill with a scrambled egg, a bit cheese, and bacon (whatever you want). Make it the night before and just pop in microwave for 30 secs.

    I love Better Oats steel cut Brown Sugar and Cinnamon instant oats with a tablespon of either 1/3 less sugar whipped Peter Pan PB or I add in a Tablespoon or PB2.

    I generally eat the same breakfast every day (just varying the yogurt, Quest bar, and coffee flavors):

    Overnight Oats (combine and refrigerate overnight):
    -Quaker Oats - Old Fashioned 100% Natural Whole Grain, 1/4 cup dry 75
    -Mp Combat Powder - Protein Powder- Cookies N Cream, 0.5 scoop 70
    -Simply Balanced - Raspberry Greek Yogurt 0% Fat - Fruit on the Bottom, 5.3 oz (150g) 55

    Quest Bar - Cookie Dough, 1 bar 190
    Dr. Mcdougall's - Organic Instant Oatmeal Light Maple Brown Sugar, 1 packet 150
    Green Mountain - English Toffee K-Cup, 1 Cup 2
    Klarbrunn - Sparkling Water Lemon Flavor, 1 Can 0

    607 calories
    84 carbs
    13 fat
    54 protein

    Since I eat this everyday, I tolerate it well no matter what I'm doing and can eat it prior to exercise without worrying about digestion issues, including long runs and lifting (I may delay coffee until afterwards, but eat everything else)

    Dried apricots & a hard-boiled egg. Or Greek yogurt with frozen strawberries or blueberries or banana added to it.

    I think breakfast IS important, I was told that the largest meal is breakfast, lunch is smaller and supper smallest. But my lunch and supper is turned around.

    Absolutely right if that's what works for you. Breakfast isn't important. If you don't want to eat it, don't! I personally like saving most of my calories for later in the day. I eat the majority of my food after 430pm

    I do this when I know that I am going to eat high calorie food in lunch or dinner
