Breakfast Help?

Cottage cheese & fruit
Greek yogurt
Atkins protien shakes
Atkins meal bars

Concentrate on protien in the AM

My go-to breakfast is 2 Eggo Nutrigrain waffles toasted with 1/2 Tbsp of butter on each one and an 8 oz. glass of 1% milk for added protein. This tends to keep me full until at least 11am when I usually have a piece of fruit/nuts/etc. I'm not big on oatmeal, eggs or protein shakes and usually only have 10 minutes to make & eat breakfast so these work well for me. I choose to put butter on them instead of syrup because the fat tends to keep me full longer than sugary syrups and I can't stand the taste of margarine. Hope this helps!!

Easiest thing to do is to drink an 8oz glass of water as soon as you wake up that slows the hunger pangs and then a smoothie/protein shake for breakfast. Also if you like fruits or yogurt as an alternative to oatmeal.

Protein shakes or meal replacement.

Haha - I posted pretty much this exact question several weeks ago!

The MFP community FREAKED OUT! People called me the pickiest eater on the planet. They told me I better learn to like eggs if I wanted to be healthy. They told me I needed to expand my palette. They suggested skipping breakfast because there was nothing possibly I could eat. They compared me to Sally from 'When Harry Met Sally'. It was sort of annoying.

Since then, I have been making whole wheat pancakes with a warm fruit compote with a side of turkey sausage. Or, some days I will have a mini bagel with cheddar cheese and turkey sausage with a side of fresh fruit. It's been very satisfying! And yes... I am living proof that there are breakfasts that don't have eggs or oatmeal!

Some days, I'll have a homemade Belgian waffle and bacon. Occasionally, I'll even splurge on a donut or croissant. :-)

I always try to get started with balance in the AM. Target some protein, fruit and or vegetable and whole grains. A couple of standbys I use are Sprouted Wheat toast (2 slices) with Peanut butter and 2 clementines. If I start with a protein shake I always add something with fiber. I usually mix the protein powder with skim milk to get a few carbs to kickstart the metabolism. Greek yogurt is also a protein packed starter with low fat and carb load. You can't go wrong with something as simple as Kashi Go Lean cereal with skim milk. Watch the portion size (Measure it the first few times you eat it) but this is a good balance of protein and carb to start the day.

I posted this on another thread:

- healthy muffins
- english muffin or toast topped with jam, almond butter, peanut butter, honey, or cottage cheese
- fruit & cheese & hard boiled egg
- crustless quiche (keep in refrigerator and reheat a piece each day)
- greek yogurt, berries, and honey
- protein shake (fruit, yogurt, scoop of protein powder, ice)

Also:

fruit stuffed crepes
cottage cheese and fruit
english muffin with an egg over medium
Oatbran, musili, brown rice, or quinoa as an oatmeal replacement.
Breakfast quesadilla or wrap (eggs, veggies, meat, cheese)
Baked fruit with a little granola on top and a splash of milk (kinda like a healthy breakfast dessert)
