What’s did everyone have for breakfast?

Coffee oatmilk latte / probably pbj later

Western egg bake (eggs, egg whites, cottage cheese, ham, shredded cheddar, peppers and onion) reheated and coffee with ultrafiltered milk and sugar free syrup

Wake up wrap, coffee with milk.

Sugary coffee latte..nothing else yet but probably a bagel with cream cheese and a few blackberries later

A mini cinnamon bagel, blueberries & grapes, a little Meijer's bran flakes cereal, and a few cashews.

Oats made with skimmed milk and a sprinkling of raisins, then a handful of organic peanuts and a banana.

Must start mixing protein powder in with the oats.

I used to have Greek yoghurt, but I’ve quit sugar apart from fruit (again) and eating the plain one after waking up feels like some kind of divine punishment. 😬

The other wake up wrap from yesterday's Dunkin run. Water.

You might be surprised that over time you grow to enjoy plain yogurt. I use a brand that has a distinct tang from a very nice fermentation. I typically don't use Greek style, but I sometimes do. I used to mix it with rolled oats (uncooked) and let that sit for an hour or two to soften up. I really liked the sour flavor without the excess sweetness. Sometimes I'd toss in a chopped apple or banana. Sometimes sunflower seeds. I still make that as some morning fuel to take with me when I occasionally work because I leave home long before I'm ready to eat.

Also - consider using a scale for those peanuts. A "handful" of peanuts could mean many things and the number of calories could be extremely variable.

Oh I do use a scale 😁 I just thought a handful sounded better than writing “30 grams of organic peanuts” - they certainly are a generous portion of morning calories!

Thanks for the yoghurt tips, didn’t think of using oats with them - that could definitely work.

6 am. Kodiak pancake
8 am. Dunkin bagel bites, coffee and milk

1/2 cup of egg white. 1 egg. 1/2 cup of spinach and mushrooms. 2oz turkey sausage. 1oz chunky guacamole. Salsa.

Biscuit and gravy. Scrambled eggs. Coffee and milk.

Dunkin wake up wrap. Coffee and milk.
This week's Kodiak pancakes are a fail. On paper, protein to calories is good. In reality, sugar to protein makes me hungry for sugar an hour later. Can I add protein and turn it around? Or consider it a lesson learned?

Dunkin wake up wrap from yesterday. I like them better the second day, toasty and crispy. Decaf with milk.

4am whataburger pancakes, and bacon and eggs. Coke zero.
