What did you have for breakfast

chopped up fruit in a bowl is easy to fix and can be good for an energy boost i think

or some wholemeal toast with topping of your choice
maybe ham, banana, low fat cheese spread, low fat jams?

i like herbal tea in the morning too

a Nekked Pancake

Oatmeal, baking soda, egg white, a dash of milk, and 1 tbs of mini chocolate chips

I don't like to cook early either but I've been putting an egg in a small microwaveable bowl (I take the yolk out, but you don't have to) and microwave it for 30-45 seconds while I have my english muffin in the toaster. I grab a piece of cheese (lowfat of course for me), some fully cooked bacon(microwave 30-45 seconds), or ham, or canadian bacon, or turkey bacon, or sometimes I just do the egg and cheese. :bigsmile:

There are different English Muffins you can use. I use the original and they're only 120 calories. One egg white is only 30 calories, lowfat cheese I have is only 40 calories per slice, and depending on the meat you use.....my fully cooked bacon I had today was 2 slices for 40 calories. So it only totalled 230 calories and it was goooooooooood :bigsmile: :drinker: :smokin:

Doesn't take long using the microwave......ya don't even feel like you're actually cooking...took me 5 minutes to make it....LOL :laugh:

Or I just have cereal or a banana or some type of fruit and possibly toast with it. :flowerforyou:

1/3c old fashioned oats, 1/2c skim milk, 1/3c strawberries, 1/2oz walnuts, it is cooked in no time on the stove, after done sprinkle cinnamon on top. Super Rico!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :flowerforyou:

If I'm really in a hurry, I usually just grab a Zone Perfect Protein bar. They are YUMMY! If you like cinnamon rolls, they have that flavor.

If you like cereals, try Kashi-they are a little more healthy. Otherwise I grab a boiled egg (prepared the night before) and a banana.

I LOVE cottage cheese and mandrine oranges. MMMMMMM:smooched: So super easy!

YUMMY!!!!

I haven't had breakfast yet, but what I'm going to have is Quaker Simle Harvest instant oatmeal with a 1/4 cup of Fiber One cereal. (I have this every weekday morning, but I switch around what type of Quaker oatmeal I have.)

I'll probably also have a banana.

1 packet maple and brown sugar oatmeal (prepared with water) - 130 calories
1 medium banana - 105 calories
Total 235 calories.


I LOOOOVE oatmeal.. i could eat it for every meal :laugh:

I normally have either eggs with a whole grain bread toasted or oatmeal with fruit. Today I was naughty and had orange poppyseed cake! Tomorrow I'll be back to normal.

I too make a quickie Mc Muffin type sandwich w/ egg whites in the microwave, extra lean turkey bacon and Thomas' light multigrain muffins. You can make the eggs and bacon ahead of time and keep them in the fridge and just reheat when needed.

Its fast and very filling. Got the recipe from the Biggest Loser Family cookbook...lots of good simple stuff in there.

I also make up little Gladware cups of Dannon Light and Fit Vanilla fat free yogurt with 1/2 of a sliced banana and a bit under 1/4 cup frozen blueberries. Stick a couple in the fridge and when you need them they're ready to go.

Good luck!

I'm not a BIG fan on the cooking in the morning...and I have to say that the coffee doesn't normal begin until after I'm out of the house. But a nice bowl of oatmeal and a cup of coffee is just enough to get me going and stop my belly from rumbling. Then a few hours later once my mind is awake I eat a serving of some good antioxidants like...blueberries, blackberries, or something like that.

I like Kashi Go Lean Crunch bars and Balance Bars. I also make my own trail mix. I use a combination of nuts and dried fruit and some whole grain cereal like puffed Kamut, Flax Plus, unsweetened, organic cornflakes... anything that has very few ingredients. It is great because you can eat more than your traditional trailmix for the same number (or less) of calories.

Today's breakfast was a Fiber One Whole wheat english muffin, with 2tbsp of Natural Peanut Butter, A Weight Watchers Amaretto Cheesecake Yogurt, and a cup of coffee with Hazelnut coffeemate and splenda. About 400 Calories, but I like to eat a big breakfast and smaller lunch and dinner. Need it to get through the day.

I have almost the same thing everyday
1/3 cup of regular oatmeal made with 2/3 cup water
Handful of whatever fruit (strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries)
1/4 cup of French Vanilla Low Fat Island Farms Yogurt..(the best yogurt!)
Top it with 1 tbsp of ground flax

It is so good.

One piece of toasted whole wheat toast
1/3 cup ww mexican blend cheese
1 egg over easy

All under 300 calories!
