    For those of you eating oatmeal. I love it but 1/2 cup is 300 calories. Isn't that high calorie, especially, if you add nuts, fruit, honey or agave to sweeten, cinnamon, and a 1/4- 1/2 skim milk that's puts my whole day out of wack. Way to high on fat, carbs and calories to have balanced meals the rest of the day. What am I doing wrong?

    Overnight oats made with almond milk, vanilla protein powder, chia seeds, flax seed, frozen blueberries and walnuts, OR
    Yogurt with frozen blueberries, oats, flax seed, and vanilla protein powder. I top this off with some type of granola.

    I flavor both with cinnamon and sometimes pumpkin pie spice. :smiley:

    My oats are 141 calories per half cup. I've never heard of one as high as 300 calories. Are you sure that isn't for a whole cup? What kind of oats are they?

    @meridethgillis - my oats are 150 calories per 1/2 cup. My entire overnight oat breakfast normally does not end up being more than 300 calories.

    Coffee and dark chocolate. Seeing all these posts reminds me...I just don't want food in the morning. Especially the cheeses, yogurt, and oatmeal :confounded:

    I make up for it later in the day, though! :smile:

    Yes, for me oats are pretty low in calories for the satiety. Mine too are 150 calories per 1/2 cup.

    Overnight oats (flavor varies)
    or
    Cereal + milk with an English muffin and peanut butter
    Or
    Two over-easy eggs and English muffin with Laughing Cow wedge

    On weekends, I like to make pancakes, french toast, biscuits and gravy, or bread pudding.

    I don't add any of that to my oatmeal. I boil water in no sodium added chicken broth for a little extra flavor. I may add a small splash of no sugar syrup (I keep a low sodium and sugar nutrition, personal preference), but that's about it. Need my carbs!

    I used to skip it while I was losing weight. Now that I'm gaining weight (on purpose) I usually go for a cup of milk, and one or two of the following: apple, yogurt, granola bar.

    The milk I can chug before heading to my bus and the rest I can eat when I arrive at work... or on the bus lol.

    And then I sometimes have a mid morning snack too. Maybe an egg and cheese muffin from a fast food place, or a bagel with cream cheese... or a bigger yogurt if I didn't already have a yogurt.

    yoghurt, Blueberries, raspberries (both frozen if not in season) and some granola on top for crunch. Plus maybe a Protein Works zero syrup for some added flavour

    1 whole egg, ~100g egg whites, green pepper scrambled on toasted english muffin. Usually ends up in the 230-250 calorie range

    When I'm feeling daring I add some cheese.

    Cottage cheese, mainly because it's quick and easy and I can take it to work since I'm generally not hungry until 10 or 11. Weigh it out the night before, stick it in my lunch box, done.

    I don't eat breakfast until well after lunch, but it's usually cottage cheese and vegetables.
