    I highly suggest eggs and egg whites. It really makes a difference. I also love protein bars.

    I have the same issue with pasta. You would think something so high in carbs would fill me up but I can eat like 2-3 servings no problem, I stay away from it as much as possible because its a trigger food for me.

    Weetabix is fabulous. Just try heating the milk, warming and even more delicious. But that aside, try it with raisens or banana.. most fruits really. blueberries are especially good. If you have the calories/inclination, sometimes with a drop of honey. Mix it up. It's great, and with a little bot of fruit I find it tends to be more filling.

    No matter what I eat for breakfast I can be hungry at approx 11am, mostly I eat porridge oats with skimmed milk or 2 weetabix.

    I usually have to have a banana or kiwi fruit mid morning, or a piece of wholemeal toast.

    What I find interesting is if I don't eat breakfast (not very often) I don't seem to be hungry mind morning!!

    Weetabix - creates hunger pangs later on, I too stick to oats, and eggs every other day.

    Tesco - Semi-Skimmed Milk, 200 ml 100 cals
    Myprotein - Impact Whey Protein (Unflavoured), 25 g 98 cals
    Myprotein - Instant Oats, 100 g 388 cals
    Blueberries - Raw, 1 cup 83 cals

    total: 669 calories c:104 f:14 p:37 fiber:12 sugar: 25

    Dawn my calories guess were right :smokin:

    The amount of protein is solid - no need to add more (except if you like them)

    Beware - supplements (eg protein powder) should remain as they are called - supplements.
    They are two kinds of protein that are extracted from the milk : Whey which about 20% and Micellar casein (80%). That last is an anti-catabolic one, preventing protein-breakdown. It's interesting because of the speed it's assimilated - the assimilation can last up to 8 hours! That is why I've included a 20% yogurt :) Some people include casein in the end of the day- others in the morning.

    So I think protein intake is good here ;)

    I find that after I pile on about 250g of sugar, as required to make Weetabix taste like real food, then I'm so hyper I forget about being hungry.

    lol :0)

    I eat 5min to cook Ouaker Oats with a little milk, splenda and a little fruit.....I find this keeps me easily until noon and I think it also helps me to not be so hungry after supper.....

    The only cold cereal that fills me up is great grains. I love oatmeal or red river with some berries & yogurt. I eat breakky at work at 4am and it keeps me going til lunch at 11.

    I actually put egg white in my oats sometimes (mix it in with the water then cook), sounds disgusting but its easily disguised with the right spice/sweetener/fruit/nuts
