Whats for breakfast?

Stoneyfield Fruit Smoothie and a Cereal Bar!

1/2 cup dannon light & fit yogurt w/some fruit (strawberries r my fave) and a packet or 2 of sweetener (i use truvia) , mix it in a blender with some ice and VIOLA! You have a huge smoothie thats only about 100 calories!

My favorite is equal parts plain Greek yogurt and Kashi Go Lean Crunch cereal (usually 1/2 cup of each). Mix it together and it is like a super protein and fiber packed bowl of yogurt and granola. The cereal sweetens up the plain yogurt. Lately I have also been dumping whatever berries are in season in the bowl as well.

I have a frozen fruit smoothie/protein shake and peanut butter toast, but you don't have to eat only "breakfast foods" for breakfast.

Try a fruit smoothie. Get a good healthy protein powder ( they don't have to cost half a house payment to be good), a small cup of water and maybe some crushed ice, some plain non fat yogurt (I use Greek God, cause I'm you know sort of one myself , [sarcasm alert here]) and whatever fruit comes to my grubby little fingers first: blueberries, strawberries and pineapple are my favorite. Add some fake, but somehow still healthy sugar and/or honey. Turn the blender on high till your spouse starts looking for the shotgun.

You can use frozen fruit as well and skip the crushed ice. The one I make: about 300 calories and enough protein to get me through to lunch.

Good luck.

My morning snack was 1 cup Dannon plain natural yogurt with 1 tsp of powdered sugar.

Breakfast was one egg with: spinach, tomato, green pepper, onion, mushroom, 1/3 of a piece of bacon all scrambled together and topped with 1/8 of a cup of shredded cheddar cheese. Oh, and a glass of milk.

I tell my kids all the time,cereal is not a meal, it is a snack. A meal, a real meal, doesn't come from a box or a can or the freezer. It also contains all four food groups in it. If it doesn't meet those requirements, then it's not a meal in this house.

I usually have a yoplait light yogurt and fruit, today was red seedless grapes. I have a busy schedule at school, so I tend to eat on the go and don't get to cook breakfast.

My breakfast during the week is usually a pack of high fiber cinnamon swirl oatmeal and a muscle milk lite (chocolate or cafe late)... total around 320 cals

or I will the oatmeal and subsitute the muscle milk lite for a fiber one bar (around 300 cals)

1/4 cup of quick oats
1/4 cup of cooked plain brown rice
1/4 cup of almond milk
1/8-1/4 cup of water
microwaved for 1.5-2 minutes (in a big bowl so there’s no spill over)
then I added:
1 tbsp honey (or you could use Splenda, Truvia, Stevia, etc)
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla
and sometimes a few berries

yummm

I cook my own oatmeal. I soak it overnight so it cooks faster. I have half a cup and add some cinnamon and half a chopped apple or some strawberries. I usually let it cool down and add vanilla protein powder, instead of sugar.

It's so good and full of protein. I can't imagine having chicken or tuna for breakfast, this is a much better alternative.

If I'm in a hurry or not that hungry I'll make a protein shake and add 1/4 cup of oatmeal in the blender and take it with me.

I eat the same breakfast every work day because I make it and take it in a thermos.

Quaker Oats - original microwave packet
cinnamon
golden raisins
slivered almonds
fresh blueberries

Its about 200 or so calories and I love it now. Was hard to get used to without sugar, but now with the raisins and blueberries (or strawberries) with some coffee it is yummy!

Days off I usually either have Kashi Go Lean cereal or 2 egg omelet with reduced fat cheddar cheese, mushrooms and green pepper.

I have two different breakfast meals.

Most days (when I do interval training before breakfast) I avoid carbs first thing in the morning, and I have:
Scrambled eggs with: 5 egg whites, 1/8 cup of cheese, 2 oz diced chicken breast, 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper, and a protein shake (either chocolate of vanilla). That's a total of 314 calories.

My non-interval days (like today) I do have carbs. Today I had:
A breakfast burrito from Kroger (La Favorita - Huevos Rancheros Burrito - 180 calories) plus a banana.

Or I'll make myself a sausage muffin with egg... those are about the best breakfast ever, and a special tread for me. Since they are time consuming and more difficult to do. The scrambled eggs I just mix up the night before and spend 3 minutes cooking in the morning.

I had a toasted bagel thin with 1tbsp of peanut butter and a peach. I think it was 265 calories total and very filling.

4 oz greek yogurt
1 cup blueberries
1/4 cup granola
a dash of vanila extract
a dash of stevia..

OOOh. I've got some good ones for this:
1) Low carb bagel with a tablespoon of peanut butter and half a banana cut in pieces on top. Yum!
2) 0% Greek yogurt with local honey (good for allergies!) and a variety of fruit & nuts - the protein in the Greek yogurt and nuts keeps you full. I like bananas, blueberries, mandarin oranges, pineapple & almonds - you don't have to skimp on the fruit.
3) And, if I feel like cooking, I have my spinach & potato faux-fritata: 1/2 - 1 cup frozen hashed brown potatoes, however much frozen chopped spinach and/or other veggies as you want, cook until the potatoes are brown. Then, plop two eggs on top, break up a piece of Laughing Cow lite cheese and add a little low fat or fat free shredded cheese, cover and cook until the eggs are done.
4) last but not least, I do sometimes eat cereal, but only Fiber One original, with loads of bananas and light soy milk. It has enough fiber that it keeps you pretty full for the calories, and tastes pretty good.
