    Oatmeal works for me... and makes me feel full. I love Better Oats oat revolution strawberries and cream. And I mix with some unsweetened vanilla almond milk. DEEE-LISH. Oatmeal is 130 cal and a cup of almond milk (unsweetened) is 35 cal per cup.

    1 egg (80 cals)
    3 egg whites (45 cals)
    1oz ham (40 cals)
    1/2 Jalapeno (2 cals)
    1/4 cup low fat mozzarella cheeze (40 cals)

    Total 207
    Mix in a bow - heat up a pan, toss in when hot - either make an omelet, fritatta, or just good old scrambled eggs.

    Leave out the cheese for under 200....but everybody loves cheeze!!!!

    Best thing is you can prep it the night before, and just toss it in a pan in the morning, takes less than 3 mins to cook.

    slightly odd question, what do you do with the extra 3 yolks? just chuck them out?! i'm asking cause i HATE wasting food (probably a major factor of my getting fat in the first place)!

    3 egg white Fritata (140 calories)

    I sautee veggies in a small amount (.2 tsp) of olive oil (peppers, onions, garlic, 2 cups of spinach, mushrooms, tomato, etc.). Set them aside and cook the egg whites in another small amount of olive oil. Then I throw the veggies ontop of the egg whites and devour.

    Killer breakfast, sticks with you well, and only like 140 calories.

    Yum.

    i like to make egg bakes. i'll make like 12 and eat them for days.

    2 with a veggie pattie for breakfast is so fill and delish.

    they're about 100 cals each (with the yolk)

    1 pepperoni on the bottom of each muffin tin
    1/4 cup of sautayed veggies on top of that (i sautayed zuchini, onions, and mushrooms)
    2 tbsp of cheese on top of the veggies (i used mozzerella)
    1 egg on top, add s/p to taste.

    fill up all the muffin tins like that. bake at 375 for 15-20 mins or till the eggs are cooked. :D You can scoop them out easily because of the natural fats in the pepperoni (you could also use turkey deli meat for a lower cal alternative and egg whites instead of whole eggs which would make the total cals closer to 50 that 100).

    this is also super high protein, and low carb. :3

    One of my favorite breakfasts (if I'm not watcing my carb intake) is:

    A Thomas Everything Thin Bagel (110 cal)
    1 tbsp Veggie Cream Cheese (40 cal)
    2 slices of lean ham (30 cal)
    And then you can add veggies for a few more calories, like lettuce and tomato.
  • 1-2 eggs and some fresh fruit or veggies works best.

    I never throw out egg yolks either because a) they are delicious, b) it is a waste, and c) that is where most of the nutrition is. Still, sometimes I like ONLY egg whites when I need a low cal breakfast. Instead of separating the yolk from the white what I do is buy two separate things: a carton of eggs for when I want whole eggs, and a carton of eggs whites when I want just the whites. The egg whites I buy are natural, free-run eggs. The only ingredient in the carton is egg whites, and when you pour them into your pan they LOOK like egg whites (they are dyed yellow to make them look like scrambled whole eggs). They are called Naturegg, and can be found with Egg Beaters, Egg Creations, etc. They are terrific, and their consistency is just as it should be when they are cooked which tells me they are not processed. I throw nothing away (the manufacturers might....but I don't really think about that right now).

    Edit: and after reading the new comment just a few above this: I am not American either. :P I live in Canada and they sell them here. :) If you've never thought to look for them before, you might be surprised and find them on your shelf. They are in little milk-type cartons.

    1 egg (can use two)
    2 tbls of reduced fat or fat free shredded kraft cheddar cheese
    1 jalapeno, diced (I remove the seeds and (is it veins?) to reduce the heat)
    1 vine-ripened tomato
    3 to 4 teaspoons of tabasco sauce

    Use cooking spray to coat a pan on medium to high heat, add jalapenos.
    Cut tomato in to thick slices, lightly salt and pepper, spray the pan with more non-stick spray and cook tomatos on each side for a minute or two. Put tomatoes and jalapenos on your plate
    Fry the egg using the cooking spray, over easy. Add the cheese when you flip the egg.
    Plate the egg and top with the tomato and jalapeno, add the tobasco..

    I like to mix the yoke and tabasco... I've been told this is gross but I also think ketchup and egg yolk is amazing together so I'll add Heinz sugar reduced ketchup as well.

    Egg White Quiches

    Use 12-slot muffin tin - Spray with Pam to avoid sticking
    Pour egg whites into the tins about 1/2 way full.
    Add assorted veggies to each slot
    Sprinkle with FF cheddar cheese

    Bake 350 for about 20-25 minutes.

    They pop out and are super yummy! They're about 50 calories each.
  • My lucky dog gets my egg yolks. :) and he has a beautiful shiny coat to show for it :)

    Cartons of egg whites are now available in the UK - I can find them in Sainsburys but not in Tesco. They are in the milk section.

    I usually have 2 ryvita multigrain crispbreads with 25g low fat cottage cheese - 100cals! So I don't feel bad if on the odd day I actually want another helping to fill me up :) (usually I have a cup of tea with milk and sugar which adds another 50 to the total, but totally worth it IMO so I can get my morning cuppa!)
  • Try to eat protein for breakfast: I eat 2 oz chicken breast, 1/2 cup canned pumpkin, 1 teas olive oil, and 1 serving grits. I divide the meal in half and eat half at breakfast and the other half about 10:30 or 11 a.m. You can vary the protein, cooked vegetable, and the grain to suit your taste. Enjoy!:
