I add egg whites to 1 egg omelet, with veggies, you have more volume. or you can just use egg whites.0

Kashi makes a 7 whole grain puff cereal that is 70 calories a cup... That paired with low fat or no fat milk OR almond or coconut milk would be great... If you want it a little sweet you can add some splenda or even sugar. SO GOOD!0

whole wheat english muffins with some protein - keeps me full for 5 hours:drinker:0

Well now what is your definition of low calorie?0

I like the morningstar farms "sausage" or "bacon" biscuits. They are 270 calories, but sooooo yummy and filling.0

This. Sometimes I use only egg whites (eggbeaters) and mix some spinach in, scramble it, and top with feta cheese. Salsa and shredded cheese or an american single is great too!0 -
Oatmeal is good. A 1/2 cup dry (then cooked in 1 cup of water) only has 150 calories. I like to add some raisins and a small bit of brown sugar to sweeten it up a bit.0

egg whites!! high in protein, low in fat and calories...0

I like old fashioned oatmeal, cinnamon, a scoop of protein powder and some flaxseed oil. However, it only keeps me full for 2 hours tops, then it's time to eat again. That's ok I eat 5-6 meals a day!0

Day 1 . Veggi omlet with egg white
Day 2. Oatmeal. i use the maple sugar kind.
Day 3. Coffee
Week ends i do pan cake0 -
I like to make oatmeal (1/3 cup dry cooked with water), 1/4 cup lowfat cottage cheese and a few pecans or raisins ( just a tablespoon or so) Very filling, but low in calories.0

Vitatops. Google them. You're welcome0

oatmeal is typically my favorite low-cal breakfast choice. I also like a scrambled egg with low-cal/high fiber bread and a bit of peanut butter. Lots of protein to keep me moving all morning!0

I think everyone has some wonderful ideas for low calorie breakfast, but if you want to make your breakfast filling pair hot or cold whole grain cereal with a piece of fruit, and an egg omelette with your favorite veggies.0
-
French toast: made with whole wheat bread and egg replacer. Add some cinnamon and fruit for sweetness.0
-
I make a breakfast sandwich with Pepperidge farms deli flats, 3 egg whites (I usually use "all whites") mixed with spinach, and 1 laughing cow light cheese wedge. It keeps me full for a while and is only about 233 calories0
-
I like to have 1/2 - 1c of greek yogurt with some fruit and almonds mixed in. Sometimes a bit of cinnamon, depending on the fruit. Apples and pears are my favorite, they sweeten the yogurt enough for me. Or I'll mash up half an overripe banana and maybe add a Tbsp of mini chocolate chips instead of almonds.
ETA: The whole thing usually comes in between 200-250 calories.0 -
Egg white omlettes are always a good choice and you can make them filling by loading up on veggies and even a bit of low fat cheese.
Smoothie with bananas or peanut butter in them are very filling as well.
Good ole oatmeal and whole grain toast.
Whole wheat pancakes or waffles and use agave nectar or honey instead of syrup.
Yogurt topped with homemade granola.0 -
Thank you so much for the suggestions. I always eat a handful of pistachios coupled with something like granola bar or something similar. I used to love cereal too but I don't want to eat ll of my calories for breakfast.0
-
My favorite breakfast is a la tortilla factory tortilla, 6 tbsp. of break free egg whites, a little bit of onion and green pepper, some turkey sausage or diced ham, and a tbsp of salsa. 270 calories and a ton of fiber.0
-
I think pretty much everyone has said "veggie omelette" which is my go to fave. Always.. BUT, when I have some time I make protein pancakes! They are SO good that my husband even likes them. I top them off with sugar free syrup, and it's just like the real thing. them! (I also add nutmeg and cinnamon so they sorta taste like French toast)

Also, a home made "egg mc muffin" always hits the spot. Whole grain english muffin, reduced fat cheddar, egg, canadian bacon slice. Less than 300 cals, lotsa protein, lotsa delicous.0 -
I have 3 egg whites with honey wheat english muffin with low sodium american cheese. Its 223 calories and delicious and filling.0

Check out skinnytaste.com, tons of great breakfast recipes with calorie count, my favourite right now is the banana nut pancakes for only 146 calories for two and I use E.D. Smith sugar free syrup for only 30 calories for 1/4 cup which I don't even need all of!0

one cup of fiber one cereal (the one that looks like rabbit food) plus vanilla whey protein shake instead of milk. That combo give me 30 grams of protein and 28 grams of fiber for 250 calories.0
