what's for breakfast?

I am getting hungry everyday about two hours after I have breakfast. (which is usually Kashi cereal with Almond Milk)

What's a good breakfast food/foods that will stay with me longer?

    maybe try adding a hard boiled egg?

    Eggs always seem to keep me much fuller.

    I eat that with a homemade fruit and yogurt smoothie most mornings.

    I agree with the eggs. Canadian bacon, 1 egg, and fat free cheese on a sandwich thin. I have this at about 8 am and then I start to get hungry about 10:30 and have a small snack like kiwi or string cheese.

    Great value english muffins with egg canadian bacon and cheese have been doing well for me(200 calories a sandwich) . I eat that with my first bottle of water for the day, then if I start to get hungry between breakfast and lunch I have an 8 ounce glass of low sodium V8, just enough to take the edge off and only 50 calories, plus I'm getting some veggies into breakfast, which I'm normally not too good at.

    Hi
    Instant oatmeal seems to stay with me longer. I love Kashi, but get ravenous a bit after eating.

    I use a meal replacement shake called Isagenix. It keeps me full for about 4 hours.

    One egg, one piece multigrain toast, 3 oz. lean ham. Oat bran cereal w/ berries most mornings, too. It's important to get some protein. Carbs alone digest too quickly and cause an insulin spike.

    I eat a hard boiled egg & a piece of wheat toast. Today I had 2 hard boiled eggs and I feel really satisfied. I usually have a half of a peanut butter sandwich as a mid - morning snack. Some days I'm still hungry but it helps to eat some protein

    Try to add more protein. I usually have 2 strips of turkey bacon with my Kashi cereal. However, I've been told to try to eat every 3 hours to keep my body fueled. Usually I'll have a fruit and protein snack between each of my meals and try not to have anything after dinner.

    Cereal with milk never seems to keep me satisfied long either. I have my Kashi with yogurt and an apple. That seems to do the trick (probably the added fiber?). Protien is also more satisfying for me. You might try scrambling 1 egg w/1 egg white and veggies (spinach, onion, peppers, etc).

    1/4 cup steel-cut oats with 1 tablespoon almond butter, 2 tablespoons almond milk, and a dash of cinnamon - 260 calories and super filling.

    My go-to brekky is Greek yogurt with a few tablespoons of ground flaxseed. Usually with a piece of buttered whole-grain toast. The Greek yogurt has a lot of protein and keeps me full. I eat it at 6:00 A.M. and am good until lunchtime at 12:30.

    I normally have a two egg scramble with lots of veggies (onions, peppers, tomato, etc) topped with salsa, along with a slice of whole wheat bread, 4 oz coffee and skim milk. I'm good for a least a good 3-4 hours.

    Research shows that carbs in the morning make people hungrier throughout the day. My doctor recommends having a high protein meal for breakfast. Then you can have your kashi cereal for a snack. Oh and I have lost 15 lbs since December 5th.

    I add bananas in my cereal or have a bagel thin with the laughing cow cheese and some fruit and I'm full until around 1130am (lunch) and I eat breakfast around 8am.
