    My breakfasts are usually peanut butter on a low fat waffle or whole wheat lower calorie toast

    Or I melt an ounce of 2% reduced fat cheese on an english muffin.

    or Kashi Go Lean Honey Almond Flax - not sure about the sugar in that though.

    My fave on the go snacks are Low fat mozzarella stick, 1 oz of dry roasted almonds, or a chewy granola bar (depends on brand).
    For breakfast on the run (read: in the car) I like low-fat yogurt with graham crackers with peanut butter mixed in. (It's weird, I know, but keeps me full and I can eat it while driving, plus you have variety depending on the flavor you choose.)

    Nearly every weekday I have two egg whites with an ounce of avocado cut up into them. I do that cuz I can nuke 'em at work an have hot breakfast.

    Along with that is what varies. Typical second parts to breakfast include two servings of PB2 on toast, oatmeal cooked on the stove the night before and reheated at work, some cheese and two small low carb tortillas that I make into breakfast burritos w/the eggs, or if I'm feeling lazy, maybe a Clif Mojo bar or a Luna Bar.

    Hard boiled egg and something with a nut butter (peanut or almond usually). I've never tried the waffle idea someone else had but that would be a nice change of pace from Bagel Thins and toast.

    If I'm really in a hurry I grab a Kashi bar or Kashi cereal - Trail Mix and Toasted Berry Crumble are my favorite. They aren't to be considered low in sugar though...

    I eat Shakeology. It is a product from Beach Body. It runs a little on the pricey side but I love it. I love the way my body feels the days I drink it. I am out and I am waiting for my next bag to come in, so I am having withdrawls!

    2 eggs over easy, 3-4 pieces of turkey bacon and 1-2 pieces of toast - filling and not a lot of calories

    2 eggs scrambled with one morningstar farms maple "sausage" patty broken up and mixed in. Topped with a half cup of cottage cheese. So much protein!

    I eat oatmeal - almost everday. I do like the Egg Mcmuffin idea - only 300 calories. I mixed things up yesterday and had one for breakfast myself, lol

    Smart Ones breakfast quesadilla. 230 calories, 12g protein, 1g sugar (but 29 total carbs, if that concerns you). I'm busy in the mornings and from the freezer it's only 2:15 in the microwave before it's ready to eat. The rest of my day would be easier if my breakfast had more protein, but this works for the hectic mornings when I have to get the kids ready and out of the house on time.

    Those Morningstar maple 'sausage' patties are YUM - I use them on the mornings that I actually cook something up w/ eggs, cheese, etc.

    Dorset Cereal - Very Nutty Muesli. No added sugar just sweet raisins. I hate when my milk gets sweet after I add it to cereal and Dorset Cereal is the only one that ensures my milk tastes like milk. Very filling too!

    1/2 c (uncooked) regular oatmeal, 1/2 c frozen blueberries, 1 T ground flax seeds, with a splash of unsweetened vanilla almond milk, and 12 Emerald cocoa roast almonds on the side. The blueberries thaw out pretty fast once I put them in the oatmeal. I make it in the microwave at work.

    If you're in a hurry porridge with milk (or some like it with water) is the BEST. Add honey for taste - it's low calories and low GI

    Oh I absolutely LOVE Dorset Cereal!!!!!! I used to live in Dorset and became obsessed with the stuff! Yum! Too bad it's a bit more pricey here in the States than it was in the UK. Seriously, any of their varieties are good!

    OH, and coffee...I can't forget my coffee. =)

    one slice of whole wheat toast.
    one fried egg or over easy egg
    one slice of low sodium ham
    optional: top with mustard

    250 calories

    if you want more calories than that for breakfast have a piece of fruit with it, or have two eggs and two pieces of toast
