Hi Everyone,

Just wondering what you eat for breakfast that keeps you going until morning tea?

I normally have porridge with berries or cereal but i have notice since i've been eating cottage cheese with chopped tomatoes and then a piece of fruit i feel more satisfied. I LOVE porridge though and i know it's good food but the cottage cheese just fills me up more...i eat half of the small container.

    i pretty much eat 1 of 2 things. Either shakeology (which I just got more of today! woohooo!) or cereal. I freakin love both of these options. In fact, today I had cereal for lunch :) and considering shakeology for dinner

    also - on saturdays I like to make scrambled eggs and toast

    I have cream of wheat and coffee every morning. I'm not a huge breakfast person (never have been, but I do think it helps keep me on track with binge eating, so I eat it) and I don't want a lot in my tummy when I first wake up. Cream of wheat is perfect for me. It will usually keep me full for 3-4 hours after I've eaten it - which gives me enough time to wake up and want something more to eat. :)

    fage w/honey or pita and hummus. I generally have about 15 minutes to eat/prepare breakfast. So, I don't eat things that require any preparation.

    sometimes nothing.
    sometimes eggs with bacon and toast or a scramble with tomatoes, onions, peppers egg and cheese.
    cream of wheat or oatmeal (not little flavored packets). or greek yogurt with fresh fruit. or a clif bar
    just depends on my mood and how hungry i am
    my favorite is an everything bagel with an egg, bacon, lettuce, tomato, avocado

    Kashi 7 Multigrain flakes, Silk Organic Unsweetened Soymilk (I'm the weirdo, the vanilla flavored is nasty!!) and some blueberries or raspberries. Keeps me full for a long time.

    Oatmeal made with skim milk with honey and cinnamon or english muffin/toast and boiled egg (sometimes with a slice of ham and cheese) and a glass of milk. I sometimes have fruit = apple, strawberries, melon or pineapple.

    6 egg whites on either Ezekiel bread or Arnold's multi-grain flat buns. If I feel like some extra calories I will throw in a Shakology shake. And coffee, of course.
  • Depends on what I'm feeling like having.

    Sometimes I just eat yogurt with some of the Kashi toasted berry crisp in it .. a lot better than granola in my opinion. If i'm on the run on the morning I slept in and have class I'll just throw a scoop of protein powder in water or meal replacement until I make it home, or two hardboiled eggs and an apple. If i'm feeling REALLLLY elaborate (doesn't happen often) Bodyrock.tv has a recipe for protein pumpkin spice pancakes that's pretty amazing. Any other normal morning I have oatmeal with a scoop of protein powder in it, two eggs and a slice of toast or an egg sandwich like thing with egg white and cheese on a whole wheat english muffin.

    LATELY it's >BKFST#1 OATS w/either 1 cup of frozen blueberries or raspberries (accompanied by HOT chocolate) followed by BKFST#2 1whole egg, 2 egg whites, 1-2cups spinach (nice omlette), 2 corn tortillas, sometimes with Tapatio HOT Sauce (or feta).
  • most of the time i dont eat breakfast but when i do, i tend to enjoy special k cereal
  • Kashi Go-Lean Crunch cereal with flaxseed and half a banana or a banana protein smoothie.

    Love both options.

    I also cottage cheese every day, but for lunch along with fruit.

    One of three things:

    2 or 3 eggs, sometimes with a piece of whole wheat toast or sometimes as a sandwich with veggies and maybe a slice of cheese depending on how many cals I can afford

    1/2 cup steel cut oats cooked with a scoop of protein powder, a tablespoon of pumpkin butter from Trader Joe's (peanut butter is good too), and some frozen blueberries.

    Kashi golean crisp toasted berry crumble with some yogurt mixed in and some fruit.

    Out of the three, the egg sandwich or the oatmeal are the most filling. Each meal about 500 cals.

    Well i start every morning with a 2-3 cup bowl of Special K cereal. Go workout and then come home and eat a brunch consisting of 6 egg whites 6pieces of turkey bacon. Or just 6 pieces of turkey bacon on some whole wheat or whole grain bread. Sometimes a slice of cheese and fat free mayo. I could eat cereal all day everyday but im trying to keep my carbs down.

    I have a smoothie most mornings made of the following ingredients. I was skeptical but it's pretty good.

    1 cup Almond Milk
    1/4 cup Greek Yogurt
    2 tbs Ground Flax Seed (sometimes I leave this out)
    1/2 scoop Jillian Michael's chocolate protein shake powder
    1/2 cup Frozen Strawberries
    1/2 of a Frozen Banana
    1 cup Fresh Spinach
    1/4 cup Fresh Broccoli

    Blend it all together and drink. I normally have breakfast around 7:30 a.m., have a snack at 10:00 a.m. (ex. handful of nuts or a protein/fiber bar), lunch at 1:00 p.m., another snack around 3:00 p.m., and then dinner around 6:00 p.m. It seems to be working for me. Good luck to you.
  • I like to switch it up. One day I might eat 1/2 cup of fiber one with 1/4 cup of almond milk (yum yum) sometimes with a banana depending on what I plan for the rest of the day or 2 egg whites and 1 egg with 1/2 cup of cottage cheese or 1 serving of oatmeal with whatever I feel like topping it off with or Malt-O-Meal! yum yum! I can't wait for breakfast tomorrow!!!
