    I have a "green" smoothie.

    2-3 cups of spinach
    1 tbs of ground flax
    banana
    frozen berries
    Sunrype veggie/fruit juice
    Fat free greek vanilla yogurt for protein

    It's delicious, I just started drinking it so my stomach isn't used to having so little in the morning, but I will get better with it!

    That looks positively scrumptious. Just to clarify - each cookie is 234 calories? Sorry if I missed something obvious...

    Yes one cookie but that's all you need. My son eats more but he never stops moving so he can handle it ;-)

    I like Ezekiel bread (toasted) with a little cream cheese and a couple of slices of oranges. I have tea or coffee with it, and sometimes an egg.

    Actually, the breakfast you initially described, your oatmeal, egg beaters, and fruit, is about as perfect as a breakfast as you can get, health wise (assuming you are talking about plain, unflavored oatmeal). Add a scoop of protein powder to the oatmeal, and nothing else. Add a small handful of nuts. If it gets boring, just switch out your fruit or your protein powder flavor, or your nuts.

    I'm having 1 piece of toast with half a tin of spaghetti hoops and a boiled egg only 299 calories!
    Also for anyone who likes sugary cereal buy truvia or any other stevia leaf sweetner it tastes great on bland cereal and no calories!

    If you want something that you can just pick up try Subway. They have new breakfast sandwiches and they're pretty good.

    I eat oatmeal with cinnamon and chia seeds, 12 grain toad in the hole (you cut a hole in the bread with a small glass, throw the bread in a pan, crack a egg into the hole, when it is cooked a little you flip it all over, add some salt and pepper, a little hot sauce and eat it), greek yogurt with honey and granola or with chopped fruit.

    Nuts, lightly salted with sea salt or non-salted. Just a few fill me up, perfect if you don't feel like eating much. Peanuts have 170 calories in 1 oz.

    That sounds so good! I've not been a breakfast person for 30+ years, and have had to force myself to eat a little something with my morning coffee (mocha)... I find that I'm doing good to get a yogurt or boiled egg down, but around 10am I try to have a handful of almonds (23 of them, but who's counting!) Crazy thing is - I've only been doing this for 4 mos, and I miss it now when I don't have time to stop and grab a bite...

    For me, 2 cups of coffee with Baileys fat free irish cream coffee creamer and a Dannon Greek fruit on bottom yogurt. I used to eat regular yogurt, but switched to greek a couple of months ago since it makes me feel full longer.
