Do You Eat the Same Breakfast Every Day?

I have found that I need a high protein breakfast. My usual is 1/2 c. EggBeaters and 1/2 c. egg whites scrambled together, and 2 slices of turkey bacon. This is what I have eaten almost every day for the past year. I like it and I haven't tired of it. There have been times where I think maybe I should try something different. However, I noticed that when I change up my breakfast to something like oatmeal with cream cheese and PB2 mixed in, I find that I am extremely hungry within a couple hours (like right now!).

Do you eat the same breakfast every day? If so, what do you eat? If not, why?

    I have oatmeal 5 days of the week with 2 table spoon of ground flaxseed and an ounce of slice almonds. I really love oatmeal and have been eating this for over a year now and I am not tired of it.This I have a work during the week. On weekends I have something different when I dine with my family.

    i usually eat the same breakfast everyday, right now i am eating kashi cereal with almond milk, a piece of fruit and a boiled egg.. Before I was eating oatmeal, with plain yogurt and berries or banana mixed in everyday, if youre not tired of what your eating then I would eat what your eating now.

    I usually eat eggs or oatmeal everyday for breakfast and I always have chicken and veggies for dinner because it's easy to prep and cook for work. I might change the seasoning up once in a while, but if it works then leave it!

    I can eat the same thing for days in a row but it usually circulates between a few things, recently its been a scrambled egg/egg white wrap, sometimes its scrambled eggs with toast, or boiled eggs and toast, or randomly a cheese and pickle toastie!

    Sometimes as well its a healthyish version of a fry up, or porridge, or museli and fruit, so it changes quite a lot really! :D

    i usually eat the same thing every day for breakfast - two egg whites and 1 whole egg scrambled with a little chopped ham, bacon or sausage (what ever in on sale that week). I like the routine of it - simple no need to think. I usually eat the same thing for lunch too - prepack on Sunday night for the week. Getting me and the kids out the door every morning on time for school is enough worry without adding what I am going to eat!

    my usual is 1/2 cup of egg substitute with a 1 Tbsp of bacon pieces and a sprinkle of sharp cheddar made like an omelet, with a slice of whole grain dry toast. sometimes i'll have oatmeal or greek yogurt for a change. but i usually stick with the same! lol

    I eat mostly the same few things but change what of those few things I eat daily. Some days I eat a granola bar with a string cheese and an apple. Other days (like today) I eat a granola bar, string cheese, and hard boiled egg. Sometimes I eat oatmeal with an apple. Once in a while I eat 2 eggs scrambled with a serving of cheddar cheese and deli turkey mixed into it. And if I have left over spaghetti I will eat that for breakfast for sure, I love spaghetti for breakfast!

    And that's about it. A couple times a month I might have something else, but the things listed above are what I eat most days. And a few times a month I skip breakfast to eat a bigger brunch. :happy:

    I change it up if I get bored. Usually it's a banana, an 8 oz. weight management protein mix and some peanut butter. Sometimes I'll do eggs though. Just depends on if I'm at work or home and how much time I have. :)

    Since I've started atkins I have eaten two eggs with two pieces of bacon and a slice of cheese fried in butter every morning. Also a cup of coffee with 1 TBS coconut oil. It keeps me full and I'm consistantly losing weight.

    I do the same. I have to watch my iron and this is what I do to make sure I get enough everyday.

    If it seems to be keeping your hunger under control I wouldnt change it! Protien is great in the morning, have you ever tried protien shakes along with some gronola?

    I don't eat the same thing every day, but I do try to get around 30g protein for breakfast. It's actually helped me eliminate feeling hungry between meals. If I want a snack, I have it, but mostly I don't even think about snacks anymore.

    I have my favorite "got to" (hot & spicy soysage patties on whole wheat toast) but with my recent plateau in loss I've been trying to switch up a lot of things including diet routines. Tryin' to get that protein without quite so many carbs.

    mmmm protein supplements :sick:

    I'm a creature of habit. Weekdays it's usually cereal (brand varies) with my blueberries, a container of yogurt and a banana. Weekends depend largely on whether or not we're running around like lunatics with the kids' soccer etc.

    I have the same every work day (weekday) and usually the same on the weekends. I don't actually eat anything though, I just have a cup of chocolate soy milk.

    I pretty much eat the same thing everyday, with little variation. Egg beaters, 2 slices bacon, fruit of some kind, 1/2 alternative muffing and either a 1/2 c of 2% milk or V8. I like it and try to keep my bigger meal earlier in the day.

    I pretty much eat the same breakfast every day... it is simple and easy and is a great way to get my carbs in. I have some Cinnamon Toast with coffee, and maybe a banana. Sometimes I have yogurt with berries and granola though.

    I either have Trader Joes steelcut oats, or a Jimmy Dean D-Lights sandwich, nearly every day. Throw in the microwave, quick and easy, and delicious. Sometimes I'll add a banana, or like today, a small glass of OJ. I vary lunches and dinners a lot more, but I prefer quick easy breakfasts.

    I usually eat 2 hardboiled eggs, a cup of coffee, and a small packet of Irish oatmeal. Does the trick

    I eat a bowl of instant oatmeal with unsweetened almond milk and protein powder every single morning. It's quick and easy, and is the only healthy breakfast other than something with eggs that will fill me up. I just don't have time in the morning during the week though to make eggs, so I stick to the oatmeal.

    Funnily, I eat the oatmeal around 1 hour before I go my 1+ hour run :)
