eating breakfast?

I alternate each day between porridge, wholemeal toast and today i had hard boiled egg whites and also light cheese on a ryvita

Organic Oatmeal with apple

I eat a bowl of Kashi go lean crunch and it keeps me satisfied until lunch. I work with kids I eed the get up and go in the am and never sure when lunch will be.

Whole grain Eggo waffle with peanut butter... Oat Revolution oatmeal.....Smart ones egg sandwich... sometimes Rye toast.... I like variation! Breakfast is soooooooo important!

Many say that it doesn't speed the metabolism but it is a good boost of energy and helps you function more sharply... Fueling your body is what makes it work properly... with that said, I try to have a balance breakfast with will be composed of protein, carbs, and some healthy fat... I would recommend you try having breakfast for a while and notice if the is any difference in you mornings

If you're in the habit of skipping breakfast, then you probably would prefer something *portable* or with minimal preparation....

Try other things like oatmeal, eggs, ect for days off- maybe weekends?


Toast or light english muffin with natural PB

plain non fat yogurt (sweetened with Truvia)

Yogurt smoothies ( can make these up the night before- they'll get thicker)

Protein powder w/ unsweetened almond milk- (sweetened with Truvia and imitation vanilla extract) ( also make up pm before)

Light string cheese sticks



Feel free to peruse people's diaries if they're open- that's where I got ideas from

I have grains every other day so I keep instant oatmeal at my desk. On the non-grain days I bring Greek yogurt. I start with coffee with 1 Truvia packet, 1/2 cup 1% milk, 1 teaspoon homemade chocolate sauce and 1 teaspoon coconut oil. I sip that at work from 8-9 and then make a cup of tea. At 9 or 10 I have my actual breakfast. I'm not hungry until then. I need the coffee to get me going before my stomach feels ready for solid food.
If you're not avoiding carbs, toast with peanut butter is good and easy. A PBJ is tasty. If you like hard boiled eggs they're easy to make ahead of time and grab on your way out the door. Granola bars are good too. Stonyfield makes yogurt smoothies that I love as a snack or a quick breakfast.
It doesn't really matter if you eat "breakfast" food. Just eat a little something to get you going in the morning.

Juwacck 68...I am in love with Chobani greek yogurt! Just finishing a tub of the Naturel non fat that I had to add maple syrup to cuz it was too tart.
My breakfasts need to be simple and planned since I often take them to work. I always make myself a non-fat latte and nurse that during my morning routine and take to work: a home made low cal healthy muffin or some yogurt and fruit and a bit of cereal( like large flaked oatmeal or shredded wheat or a HM breakfast sandwich of Canadian bacon , Kraft single, English muffin or slice of multi grain bread. I love brea kfast!

Hum, I have my breakfast around lunchtime usually! And it's something meaty mmm

that sounds like lunch...

Wellll then I guess I dont eat breakfast

I love breakfast & look forward to eating it, LOL.

I usually have:
Oatmeal with protein powder & PB2 mixed in

or

1 Egg with Egg Whites (from the carton) scrambled with some onion and green, yellow, orange and red bell pepper and 1/2 a grapefruit

I'll also sometimes have:
Oatmeal Waffles (I make big batches and freeze them to pop in the toaster in the mornings) with PB on top
Whole Wheat Pancakes (big batches frozen again) with PB on top
Plain Greek Yogurt with Chocolate Protein Powder and PB2 mixed in

I try to get some protein in my breakfasts to keep me full until lunch

I am not a morning person. I'm rarely hungry when I first get up and on work days I sleep as late as possible without actually being late to work. I have a glass of soy milk and that often keeps me going until lunch. If I get hungry before lunch, I have a snack. Usually a low sodium V8, piece of fruit, or maybe a granola bar. I have always eaten more in the evenings than in the mornings, which seems to make sense since I sit at a desk all day and I'm busy in the evenings (exercise, housework, etc.)

I eat a Special K bar when I get to work. I'm not hungry until then. It holds me over until I have fruit as a snack later in the morning.

My breakfast varies, so that I don't get bored. I eat between 8:30 and 9:00 when I get to work.
I always have a yogurt. Low fat, no sugar added.
Then I will have 100% whole grain quaker oatmeal. I just bring a packet or two to work and make it here.
And mid morning I will have an apple.

Or, I will have scrambled eggs or egg whites and a yogurt and then apple mid-morning.
If I'm in a hurry in the morning, I grab a couple eggs and bring them to work. I will mix them in a bowl and pop them in the microwave at work to scramble them.

One of the very few things I have changed in my diet is that I now eat breakfast. I have a package of Quaker oats oatmeal. I cant say I am in love with it but it is growing on me, and gives me what I need to get through the morning without going to the store and buying a bag of something for an energy boost.

i have a microwaveable soup mug that I put in 1/2 cup egg whites, and then some veg.. either sweet peppers or asparagus. Then i microwave when i get to work and eat while i'm sorting through emails. Makes a great eggwhite omelette in a mug... that and a LIberte Greek 0% yogurt.
