    that oatmeal sounds great!

    I've been doing Shakeology for breakfast, but when I have actual food my favorite is:

    Fiber 1 English Muffin Toasted
    1 slice Canadian Bacon
    Egg (I do mine in a non stick skillet, with the smallest amount of butter so I can be sure it doesnt stick and do a fried egg)
    a tsp of pesto
    Arugula

    sooooo yummy and comes in under 300 cals!

    40 grams oats, 1 whole egg, 4-5 egg whites, quarter a chopped apple or banana, dash of cinnamon. Leave in fridge overnight, cook like a pancake :)

    Going to be trying this!

    Some great ideas here, breakfast is my favourite meal I am always starving in the morning!

    I usually have oatmeal with pnb, fruit & Greek yogurt, if I have more time eggs in some form or other.

    No way am I eating egg whites and skim milk and all that meaningless "diet food"- it's stuff like that , that makes a "diet" so hard to stay on. And all those carbs...no way! To each his own, but I eat 2 eggs fried in bacon grease, 3 strips of bacon, 2 slices of tomato, chopped green pepper, onion, and jalapenos and about a third cup of shredded cheddar, colby or jack cheese. It comes out to around 500 calories a day, full of protein, satiates that need to eat for a long time. I have to make myself eat lunch. I go to the gym 6 days a week, lift weights 4 or 5 days a week, ride the recumbent bike 3 or 4 times a week. I average 1500 cal. a day, 2000 on weekends. Diets suck!! You have to find a "lifestyle change" that you can live with, or the "diet" won't last long. And for all those who think that I'm eating un-healthy, I have my blood work done every 6 mos.-my cholesterol is normal or below, my blood pressure is normal, my blood sugar is normal, my good cholesterol is good. I only take in 50-75g of carbohydrates a day, about 100g of fat and 100-120g of protein, and I am losing 3-4 lbs a week. And I am not challenging anyone else' diet wisdom, just putting my take on it out there. maybe it will help some one, maybe not. Good luck and much success to all of you!

    I have a fryup nearly every day! One potato about 100grams, slice it up into about 4-6 slices, microwave it. Heat a non-stick pan with some canola spray, fry the potato slices, also cut up a decent sized tomato, slice it up, add that to the pan, fry so it goes dark and soft. Two eggs, fry them, flip everything over to fry the other side. If I know I am not having a lot of fat that day, I sometimes add a tiny knob of butter, it spreads all over, and gives that lovely buttery taste for few calories. Lots of black pepper.

    I started eating this nearly every day when someone suggested that a high protein breakfast will help burn calories and kickstart my metabolism - it works. I love it. I have potato because that is better than toast / bread - much lower in sodium.

    Black coffee no sugar and I am good for hours!:smile:

    yep been there done that. i ate that way and lost about 40 pounds then it just stopped working. so just a heads up. i find a good balance of getting in protein and good whole grain carbs with some healthy fats to be a good mix. yep there are some great yummy carbless meals but i just didn't find it something i could sustain for the rest of my life.

    what i had for breakfast this morning

    better oats maple and brown sugar oatmeal
    +
    Two fried eggs in a tiny bit of butter
    +
    an english muffin with a tablespoon of natural unsalted, no sugar peanut butter (straight peanuts ground)
    +
    2 cups of coffee with caramel machiato creamer

    550 calories

    YUMM!! and I am nice and full and there was NOTHING diet about what I ate.

    To each his own I suppose

    Today I had this:
    http://thefeedingdoctor.com/blog/2009/09/13/easy-quiche-or-cheesey-bacon-pie-2/

    I used Organic Turkey Bacon, Gouda Cheese instead of Jarlsburg, Fat Free Evaporated Milk, Spelt flour pie crust and added a whole cup of broccoli.

    YUM.

    Most days I have peanut butter toast, oatmeal with raisins, luna bars or scrambled eggs and fruit....
