    Well right now im having eggs w/ veggies and salsa .. also a kolache :) I know you said no eggs and sausage lol.. I got bored with cheerios too.. try getting a different one. Fiber one honey clusters is tasty and it fills me up.. I also cut up banana in it with almond milk. Greek yogurt with granola and a piece of fruit. Like some of the others mentioned.. it doesn't necessarily have to be "breakfast foods" eat what you feel like eating at the time.

    Special K has some very tasty bars, my favorite is rasberry cheesecake, but there are many flavors. those are quick and easy and you can have some fruit with that. to get a little extra protein, a slice of cheese or a cheese stick (lowfat if you like it). Regular cheese slice if it fits within your calorie and fat. one kraft american single has about 70 calories and 5 grams of fat. the 2% has 50 calories and 2.5 grams of fat.

    There are also delithins or deli flats that come in a variety of brands. they re great for sandwichs but for breakfast you can toast and put 1 tablespoon peanut butter or some type of cream cheese spread or cheese as above.

    As others have said, doesn't need to be breakfast food. when I get tired of breakfast food, I have made a turkey sandwich.

    Hello, I eat yogart (Chobani), fresh fruit (strawberries and about 10/20 grapes with low fat cottage cheese), whole wheat toast with little jelly, 2 hard boiled egg whites, decaf coffee or green tea. On the weekend I treat myself to 2 small pancakes with lite maple syrup. I alternate breakfast items during the week ,so I won't get bored.

    I usually have some coffee with stevia and 1 cup of fruit. I am not a big breakfast person so its been a big step for me to even eat anything in the morning.

    Have you tried eating a non breakfast food for breakfast? I'm dong Atkins and instead of eggs sometimes, I will have a grilled chicken salad, or whatever last nights dinner was. Who says oatmeal, bagels or cereal is the only thing you can do for breakfast?

    Personally I am an oatmeal addict, but since you're not a fan, here's some of my other breakfast options that may work for you! English muffins or toast (with peanut butter, sugar-free jam/marmalade, maybe a little bit of margarine or a slice of melted cheese), ham or bacon (high in sodium but they really do fill me up! I just watch my sodium for the rest of the day afterwards), cereal or berries mixed with yogurt and chocolate protein powder, or just leftovers from dinner the night before :)

    2 boiled eggs and 2 mugs of coffee. Keeps me full til lunch - I need protein to feel full, nothing else works! Though I do miss cereal :O)

    Like someone else said, Kashi Go Lean cereal is very good - high fiber and protein; that way you can still have your cereal and get the protein you need! Plus, there's protein in the milk too!
  • i have a banana first thing around 8.00am (i need to eat something with my medications); then later on in the morning i will have something else if im hungry; if not i just wait till lunch.

    I usually eat on the go....I make a shake before leaving the house. 1 cup nonfat milk, 1 scoop muscle milk vanilla or chocolate protein, and a bunch of frozen fruit, or peanut butter and ice, sometimes I sneak in spinach (can't taste it!). There are a ton of ways to make a shake, but its over 30g protein, 250-300cals, not too much sugar (just from fruit).....AND keeps me full for several hours!!
  • I'm not a big egg-lover either. I often eat last night's left over protein while driving to work....could be grilled chicken breast, a slice of meatloaf, piece of grilled fish, or any protein that's "portable". If you sit down to eat breakfast, you have even more choices! Vegetarian pizza is also good! gailzwailz

    see my diary - I have a few staple breakfasts with some other random stuff mixed in. I try to eat about 300-325 calories each morning that are high in protein and fiber. I am picky with what i will eat because it has to keep me full for a good few hours.

    Either mixed fresh fruit , with non fat yoghurt on top or I will have a protein shake ( milk and a protein powder) with skim or soy milk. I actually tried a Jillian Micheal's chocolate one once that kept me full till lunch. If you like chocolate or vanilla and do not have time to go mixin berries and such into a blender they are a good substitution.

    I usually have egg beaters with a whole bunch of sauteed vegies (onions, green peppers, mushrooms and lots of spinach) for breakfast but yesterday I had a carbmaster yougurt (60 cal) with 1/4th cup of low fat granola (100 cal) and about a cup of fresh strawberries and blueberries - I couldn't believe how long I stayed full and didn't think about food after that and it tasted good too!

    peanut butter on toast followed by a banana is a good one, or chop the banana up onto the toast (dry) and drizzle a bit of honey on, the good stuff too!

    I generally have a bowl of pickable fruit like grapes, blueberries and cherries and a glass of grapefruit juice, really becuase its just so easy!! but really if you wake up and feel like ham and cheese, rock it!
