Breakfast Calories?

whatever works for you..i try to get good carbs and good amount of protein in the morning. i typically have between 250-300 calories with at least 15g of protein

I am a creature of habit - I eat either of two breakfasts each morning. If I am planning to exercise early, I eat two servings of Raisan Bran Crunch with a cup of skim milk (466 calories). I find that the oat clusters in the cereal help me feel full and the cereal gives me just enough carbs to power a 2 hour bike ride. If I am not planning to exercise in the morning, I eat 2 servings of oatmeal, usually Quaker Apple Cinnamon (260 calories).

But, you've got to find what works for YOU and gives you the energy you need to start your day.

Can be as little as 0 (no breakfast) to eating 100% of your calories (eat once a day) or anything in between, whatever works for you.

I always either have fresh fruit or yogurt. I like to start my day off light, then have something with a little protien a few hours later IF I'm still hungry. BUT i do love breakfast cookies. I have Erin Barker's mini breakfast cookies if I want something alitle more solid. The large ones can be up to 400 calories, and the minis are 100 each. Oatmeal Raisin or Chocolate chip are great.

I like to have big, protein-filled breakfasts... like 500 cals, 30g protein. It gives me tons of energy, and I prefer to have a smaller dinner.

Breakfast is usually my largest meal, calories wise. i like to eat most of my calories before dinner, leaving just 300-400 for dinner.

I always try to make my breakfasts as balanced a possible. Whole grains, lean protein, fresh fruit/veggie and low fat dairy. It gives me not only the fuel I need, but also the confidence and commitment to live a healthful day! Calories wise it is usually 350-450 calories and I'm on a 1500c/day intake.

I usually split my breakfast into two "mini" breakfasts to tide me over until lunch, and it's usually 200-400 calories. today I did an egg mcmuffin though, so i'll be more than that.

I eat Kashi go lean sticks and twigs because it has 10 protein

I eat whole wheat mini bagel, 2 tbs. natural peanut butter, 1/2 banana and 8 oz. skim milk. Works for me. I also was a cereal for breakfast every morning before beginning MFP.

I don't know how people can eat less than 400 calories for breakfast. It has to be my biggest and most substantial meal of the day. I find if I don't eat a hearty breakfast with plenty of protein, I have trouble the whole day not being distracted and hungry. So I eat a big breakfast and then have smaller meals throughout the day. I try to make my breakfast consist of:

one whole-grain item (such as a slice of 100% whole wheat bread with at least 5 g. protein and 4 g. fiber)
one high-protein item (an egg, tofu scramble)
a little bit of fat (a wedge of laughing cow cheese)
Fruit and/or veggies

This morning, for example, I had a piece of whole wheat bread with laughing cow spread on top and a hard-boiled egg sliced on top and half a grapefruit. That ended up being 308 calories, which is actually a little less than 400, but has managed to really last. I'll have some greek yogurt with craisins in about 45 minutes to tide me over until lunch.

EDIT: I guess I didn't really answer your question. If you like having cereal, the milk is pretty high in protein, but I would suggest maybe having a half-serving of cereal with milk and then maybe have some greek yogurt or other high-protein item on the side. And maybe slice a banana over your cereal too.

I'm recommented 510(!!) calories for breakfast. I have to follow a diet regiment with 2000 calories a day but still to me this seems a damn big breakfast, and to be honest I've not yet eaten that much in the morning. I'm "underweight" the doctors tell me and they thing I'm anorexic - though, I do not agree, I eat whatever I want to and like to exercise. That's just me. Guess I'm not much of a breakfast eater.

My daily calorie goal is 1270.
I usually split it up like this:
Breakfast 250 - 300
Lunch: 150 - 250
Dinner: 300 - 450
Snacks: 200 - 300

Works for me!
