    I typically eat a 600-700cal breakfast. Cereal or sandwich, Apple w/pb, yogurt, and anything I can get my hands on like cookies or fruit :open_mouth:

    Protein bar with a diet coke is my typical breakfast.

    Sometimes hot oatmeal when I'm freezing, like I was yesterday morning. But I usually eat oatmeal as a later meal than as breakfast. Been enjoying the combo of vanilla protein powder with PB and greek yogurt as add ins.

    A couple of scrambled eggs with a sprinkling of cheese

    A piece of toast with 1.5 slices of cheese melted on top

    Most importantly, lots and lots of coffee

    I workout early in the morning (like 5:15), and then have a half cup of kefir with flax meal & 1 scoop of LivFit superfood powder right afterwards. When I get to work, I'll eat an egg muffin (I keep in the freezer) or an apple with almond butter or a smoothie with fruit, kale, almond-coconut milk, etc. I usually keep breakfast around 350 calories total.

    1 shredded wheat bisquit with a banana and skim milk. Coffee. Sometimes 2 boiled eggs with 2 whole wheat toast.
    But that oatmeal sounds like a plan for today. I love oatmeal.

    Weekdays it's a spinach smoothie I can drink in the car on the way to work. Spinach, milk, banana, oatmeal, PB2, and sometimes cocoa powder.

    On the weekends or days off, I usually have scrambled eggs with spinach/cheese and a high fiber english muffin.

    1/2 a cup of full fat greek yoghurt plus ~150 - 160g banana (around half the banana), 1 tablespoon flaxseed meal, 1 tablespoon chia seeds, and 25g fresh raspberries.
    262 calories
    15.8g protein
    31.5g carbs
    10g fat

    Also, would it be possible to get the recipe for this:
    1/4 of a crustless quiche. 150 calories

    It looks absolutely sensational!

  • Black coffee, but then I do a roughly 18:8 intermittent fasting window. When I do break fast, it's nearly always iced coffee with whole milk with either full-fat plain Fage greek yogurt with peach or other jam stirred in, peanut butter and banana toast, cottage cheese, sometimes with cocoa and honey or sometimes with tuna and salsa, a Clif builder bar, etc. Because I usually eat at like 4, my breakfasts aren't really necessarily very breakfast-y. I used to make baked oatmeal a lot, because it was easy and froze well. And apple and oat pancakes, because they also freeze well and reheat nicely in the toaster. I've kind of gotten away from making those in the past few months, hrm... Might be time to go buy some oats.

    Two slices of French toast and fruit
    Oatmeal with protein powder and/or nut butter or Pb2
    Two eggs with bacon and toast
    Two Weetabix with Greek yogurt and berries
    Kodiak power cakes with ham, cheese, and egg
    Pancakes or waffle with almond caramel butter and apples
    Low carb tortilla with egg, cheese, and turkey sausage
    English muffin with nut butter and an apple
    English muffin with cream cheese and smoked salmon
    English muffin or toaster waffle with ricotta and honey

    I guess those are my staples. Anywhere from 250 to 550 calories typically. And always some coffee (black).

    Scrambled eggs and toast or scrambled eggs and sausage and toast.

    a scone
    or
    a cinnamon roll

    My breakfast are high cal though. Usually 500 - 700 So if you are on a really low calorie diet, my breakfasts won't work.

    Weekdays, Actimel yoghurt drink and a Belvita softbake breakfast bar, then a cup of tea when I get to work. Weekends, variable, depending on what time I get up. Today, a delicious bowl of Bircher muesli at my favourite independent coffee shop, and a latte.

    Beverage(s): Large shaker cup full of water, a large coffee w/ milk teaspoon of white sugar.
    Food: 35g oats, 5g ground flax - cooked with water; mix-ins vary but usually just shy of a tablespoon of P28 - going to change this to something cheaper once I am done the jars I have.

    Weekdays, it's a low-cal frozen breakfast sandwich that I can eat in the car. The protein holds me until lunchtime. I like the Weight Watchers breakfast burrito and the Special K flatbreads. And coffee with low-fat milk.

    I usually aim for around 400 calories, aiming for around 30 grams of protein; my macros for this meal I try to keep 30% protein, 30% fat, and 40% carbs.
    It looks different every morning, however, I love variety. This morning I added P28's Chocolate Coconut Protein Pancake mix to a cup, stirred in water, and microwaved it for just under a minute. Once it came out I took a small bowl and added Quest's vanilla milkshake protein powder to some water to make a vanilla glaze and poured it into a hole I made in the middle of the cup. On the side, half of a lovely 70% dark chocolate bar I got from Trader Joe's ^-^ The breakfast was filling and VERY delicious, and was close to my goal by being 27 grams of protein and 397 calories.
