What are everyone's breakfast foods? I eat Special K every morning but that means I am ravenous by 10 a.m. I really don't love eggs ... Any more ideas? Thanks!

    Definitely oatmeal. I had the same problem so I started eating oatmeal with skim milk and either fresh or dried berries (make sure you watch portion size with dried fruit). It really sticks to your ribs and keeps the morning going.

    6 oz can of tuna packed in water
    Teaspoon of flax seed meal
    Tomato (or any other veggie in season)
    Peach (or any other fruit in season)
    Coffee

    OR

    Trader Joe's lowfat Vanilla Yogurt
    Blueberries
    Teaspoon of flax seed meal

    Of course, this isn't the same every single day, but I really like it! It keeps me satisfied!

    I have Quaker's Simple Harvest Multigrain oatmeal (Maple Brown Sugar and Pecans). It's pretty good. I have a piece of fruit with it or a yogurt.

    I buy these 100 calories pack of Quaker Oat Squares. They're delicious and only have 1 g of fat/pack. I have that with a Special K bar and piece of fruit (if I'm really hungry) and I'm good to go.

    i love multigrain cheerios

    however, a hard boiled egg or 2 is nothing to shake a stick at, and it is super filling

    If I am hungry mid morning, I tend to adjust my protein intake. Getting protein early in the day seems to keep the cravings away. Eggs are a great start to the day!

    1 cup of total raisin bran
    .5 cup fresh blueberries
    1 container of yoplaits yoplus digestive light yogurt

    This has over 10 grams of fiber, less than 300 calories, and will keep you full and tastes super great!

    I have the same problem, and so I break up my breakfsast into two parts. I eat a bowl of cereal (low cal like kashi or special k) with 1/2 fruit and low fat milk. Then around 10-10:30 when I'm hungry again I eat a low fat yogurt or a string sheese and piece of fruit.

    Smaller meals every few hours do me a lot of good and keep me from binge eating.

    Good luck!

    If you're looking for something super-filling, I would have to side with the oatmeal people. You won't be hungry again for a long time; I used to eat it for breakfast every morning when I was a kid, and you know how fast kids get hungry, especially when they're really active :smile:

    or something with peanut butter in it. That always kept me full for a long time as well. Just make sure you don't overdo it with the peanut butter; I'm not sure how many calories it has

    Breakfast:
    3/4 cup Kashi GO Lean cereal (it counts as a protein, whereas Spec K counts as a carb)
    1.5 ounces of fruit (blueberries, raspberries, etc)
    1/2 cup skim milk

    Mid morning snack:
    HMR Breakfast drink- 100 calories, it has protein in it:wink:

    Special K protein plus has way more protein in it and you actually have to add back in some carbs to balance it out.

    Cereal and cottage cheese
    egg creations in a whole wheat wrap or
    fruit smoothie

    My favorite breakfast is 1-2 eggs mixed with two tablespoons of salsa scrambled. I don't know how healthy it is but it sure is good :)
