Breakfast sandwich
Egg = 70 calories
Low cal wrap or bread = 40-70 calories
Remainder of calories of your choice - cheese, avocado, veggies, Turkey sausage (1/2 patty), hummus, etc...
Yogurt
4- 5oz fat free Greek yogurt (I use plain and add splenda)
Fruit - small banana, stone fruit, or berries
PB&J Sandwich
Low cal bread = 70 cals
PB2 = 50 cals
Preserves or fruit
My go to is oatmeal. 1/2 cup of whole oats is 150 calories. I prepare it with water and sweeten with splenda.

Under 150 calories is tough, a large egg white is 17 calories.3

egg whites ( i like to make an omelette with chopped tomato and a slice of cheese) or a scrambled whole egg beefed up with extra whites, veggie sausages or veggie bacon ( i like morningstar farms). fruit (banana, apple, melon, peaches..), small pancake, slice toast, coffee or tea, of soy/almond or skim milk and frozen fruit smoothie, yogurt, small amount of nuts or nut milk shake with a bit of sweetener, some raw or cooked veggies if you are still hungry. (radishes and celery are like hardly any calories)5

An egg supplemented with an extra white scrambled without oil in a non stick pan (a stone or ceramic coated frying pan would work), 100g 0% fat greek yoghurt with a few berries.4

Fab thank you all xx2

half an english muffin. one poached egg. one piece of canadian bacon.4

Hate to say it but a cup of coffee and 3/4 cup of Cocoa Puffs or just about any packaged cereal.
You need no special diet food, a piece of fruit, bowl of cereal, etc all are in the 120 calorie range.
Just check the label. I have no time to make eggs or fancy breakfasts. Actually prefer special K with the pieces of chocolate in it and like to munch it dry saving the milk calories.

I sometimes do half a cup of liquid egg substitute (great value brand) with 2 tablespoons of cheddar cheese for 115 calories, 3 carbs, 5 fat and 16 protein1
-
I have a protein shake for my late breakfast which is 200 calories (120 for a scoop of protein powder and 80 for skim milk) but you could mix it with water I guess, or use almond milk which is I think 40 calories or something for a cup.1

150kcals is not much of a breakfast. Remember that controlling your weight isn't a sprint, it's a life-long journey. Even when cutting, minimum intake should be something close to 1000kcals/day, unless you are a very petite. Most people trying to cut will get some exercise, which adds in a bit more. Even with 5 meals, that's at least 200kcals each (most people do 3 meals and a snack).
In any case, find your preferred macro balance for each meal by trial and error and how it makes you feel (I like having a bit more carb at breakfast than later in the day, but I avoid having too sweet of a sweet breakfast as doesn't seem to "stick to the ribs.")
You can always make this in proportions to fit most macro goals:
Instant oatmeal + low or no-fat milk + low or no-fat reek yogurt + berries + walnuts (or other nuts). Vary amounts to fit your calorie/macro goals.
Note: Can be heated in the microwave. You don't have to cook instant oatmeal, you can just let it soak in milk for a few minutes and it's ready to eat, which is nice in warm weather. The greek yog adds some extra protein. Walnuts (or other nuts) add fat. Berries add flavor and fiber. You can buy frozen berries in winter and add a few before microwaving.9 -
I eat Ocean's Snackit (the one with rice crackers). 145 calories in Canada.0

1/2 english muffin with 1T peanut butter, 1/4 cup oats prepared with water and 2T PB2 stirred in1

125 g of cottage cheese and 100 g of canned peaches or pears would be 150 calories

This! Only instead of the canned peaches or pears, I use 1/4 cup sliced purple grapes.3 -
These protein pancakes are incredible, and the recipe makes 12 so they're great to freeze and pop in the toaster later. 75 calories a piece, and sugar free syrup can run as low as 15 calories in a quarter cup. So you could have two pancakes, or one with syrup and fruit for 150 or less! https://pinchofyum.com/cinnamon-whole-grain-power-pancakes

Skip it and eat a good lunch3

Whole grain pita pockets stuffed with egg, cheese and chicken sausage. Delicious! You could try Trader Joe's for meatless substitutes, that could also work. Or do a veggie patty.0

Can anyone give me any ideas please? Thanks!
1/3 cup Kellogs All-Bran Buds 75 cal (2.1g protein, 24g carbs, 13g fiber!!, .6g fat)
1 cup Silk Light Vanilla Almond Milk 50 cals
total 125 cals.
I eat that just about every morning, but then again I eat more than 150 cals for breakfast, I'll generally eat a small banana with it and drink a protein shake. Gives me a wicked boost on fiber for the day and protein, not to mention the extra potassium in a banana can help negate the effects of sodium in the diet.
Food (punn intended) for thought.0 -
1/3 of a 500 calorie breakfast.

Starting off with a good breakfast and end with a low kj at night1

A light English muffin with a turkey b’fast sausage or slice of cheese.0

2 scrambled eggs with literally nothing else?
I'm curious as to why you want to eat so little for breakfast? I get we all have different preferences, but is there a particular reason? My breakfasts are like 300-400 calories

Is there any medical reason why you want low fat peanut butter? The fat is replaced with sugar and salt to make it palatable. Also fat may help you feel less hungry.1 -
1 cup water
1 tsp chia seed
1 tsp ground flax seed
1 T old fashioned oatmeal
Microwave on High 2 minutes +-
Add 1 T natural peanut butter and maybe 3 ozs yogurt0
