I am having trouble with thinking of healthy things for breakfast.

I know the following:

Oatmeal
Egg beaters
Fruit

I am not a big breakfast eater, but I know that I need to eat breakfast. I also am not a morning person. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

:smile:

    An english muffin(120 calories) sandwich with 1 egg white(17 calories), 3 slices of low sodium turkey bacon (75 calories) and 1/8 cup of lowfat mozzarella cheese (40 calories) for a total of 252 calories. It's filling and healthy:) I also do the same thing with a whole wheat wrap or make a smoothie with fruits and lowfat yogurt!

    Protein is always good and keeps you full - scrambled eggs, bacon, grilled toms and mushrooms!!

    :happy: I'm a big fan of whole grain waffles (or toast, or bagel) with peanut butter...it keeps me full all morning! If you're adventurous, try a whole wheat bagel thin with reduced fat cream cheese, tomato and smoked salmon!

    Thanks for all the replies. I have got to get started. I am just not a morning person. I LOVE my coffee. I would be happy just having it but I know my body needs FOOD!!!!!! I am going to take these suggestions and go grocery shopping. I am going to try to plan all of my meals for this week and see how that goes. Thanks everyone.

    I have Chobani greek yogurt and add protein powder to it. Double whammy with protein and keeps me full. I can't eat right away, though. I usually don't eat until 8:30am or so, and I get up at 5:30am.

    I always have the same thing.

    1 piece of whole wheat toast
    1 over easy egg (the runny yolk gives the toast moisture so I don't add butter)
    2 oz of ham
    some sriracha hot sauce

    It's only 275 calories, tastes great and is full of protein.

    I am a huge oatmeal person in the winter. I also eat multigrain cheerios with almond milk and nesquick chocolate no sugar added powder- I HATE the taste of ANY milk- toast with peanut butter- grapefruit- I eat eggs but few and far between. I am kinda a boring breakfast person I eat what I crave in the morning and it is usually one of the previous stated. :ohwell:

    This winter I've been ping-ponging between two breakfast meals:

    Cream of wheat (made with water) and a tsp of brown sugar. OK, maybe 2 teaspoons.

    or

    I chop up some kale, throw it in a skillet, crack two eggs over it and stir it all up over med. heat.

    Right now I have some left over salmon so this morning I'm going to flake that into the eggs and maybe add a tiny bit of cream cheese.

    if your not a huge morning-eating person, you could always do a good protein shake, a green smoothie with stuff like kale, spinach, apple juice, and carrots yum =) or eggwhites and fat free cheddar cheese is my favorite

    Mum on the run, my breakfast if I get chance consists of a bowl of all bran with 1spoon sugar and milk, cup of coffee, and running after my boys getting them finish for school and while driving to work I will munch a apple/banana or nectarine. Most morning i get it right but then there are those mornings when I am just to lazy to get out of the bed and start my day.
