    I don't have a photo but my breakfast was a cup of Greek yogurt (plain & fat free), with strawberries, blueberries and almonds mixed it. Total calories - 195. Total protein - 23.

    I totally get that this is a low protein breakfast. For whatever reason, protein just doesn't sit well with me early in the morning (I ate this at 6:30). If I'm going to eat eggs, for example, I have them on weekends and not until 10 a.m. or so. This is a typical work breakfast for me. For lunch, I'll have turkey, chicken, tuna and/or hard boiled eggs and a glass of soy milk and then another meat protein at dinner.

    Looks tasty! But there's hardly any protein for that number of calories. ;)

    Agreed. I think we look at food the same way. If there's not enough protein it just isn't worth it, unless of course I've already hit my protein goal for the day, then bring it on! ;)

    +1 I kept waiting for the protein. But it looks yummy! Love me some avocado!

    If it were me, I'd halve the avocado and put a fried or poached egg on top of each of those. Instant protein. ;)

    About 32oz of Truvia sweetened black coffee. It is now 3:15 now and I am somewhat hungry, but I don't want to eat anything I have at work. I want my ginger wasabi kettle chips at home right now! :angry:

    Makes sense!

    We should definitely not try to force ourselves to eat what really doesn't feel right at certain times. As long as you are meeting your goals and you feel good that is what counts no matter how you get there.

    The avocado is a decent source of non animal protein, so I think you'll be all right for this one meal :smile:
