I make a shake with 1/4 cup of oatmeal, 1/4 cup of frozen berries (whatever I've got at the moment), a cup of low-fat probiotic yogurt drink (or this great .5% fat buttermilk drink we have here in Switzerland), a banana, a scoop of soluble fibre and maybe some shredded apple when I feel like it. That keeps me really full on a normal day, but if I'm going for a hike or teaching for the entire day, I'd boost that with a poached egg on the side.0

Yogurt with fruit. I like to mix and match fresh or frozen:
blueberries
blackberries
raspberries
peaches
mango
banana
strawberries
cherries
If I use frozen fruit I measure it the night before and put it in the fridge to thaw. Also grapes on the side are so refreshing in the morning when I have them on hand.
the frozen fruits don't have more sugars than the fresh ones?0 -
After all the great ideas, I start my day with a dannon light and fit yogurt mixed with fresh fruits, a natural valley granola bar crushed, and 2 teaspons of whipped topping. a sandwich with sara lee wheat bread 45 cal per slice, with 2 slice of turkey breast, 1 teaspons of mustard, .25 roma tomato and .25 yellow onion...thanks for all the recomendatios it really help me to get the idea.0

veggie omelet all the way! TONS of veggies...so yummy! Loving the fresh local squash available right now. This past week, I chopped veggies ahead of time so that it was ready to go for the rest of the week (LOL - only lasted 3 days though before I was out!)0

<--- doesn't eat breakfast.
But if you like to eat breakfast, and you are on a calorie restriction, I would try and select a food choice that will give you the most satiety at reltaively low calorie density. My vote would be oatmeal, either quick-cut for conveinence or steel-cut if you don't mind the extra prep time. You can doctor up your oatmeal in so many different ways to satisfy your taste buds.
But, largley personal preference.0 -
Oatmeal! Try katheats.com - she has tons of great recipes. If you're not into the fancy concoctions, try oatmeal with a banana and spoon of peanut butter...keeps me full forever!
What kind of oatmeal to you use? I love anything with peanut butter! LOL and I like banana's too0
