Nothing! First meal is at noon -- around 5 hours after I wake up.
Much rather save my calories for the evening.0 -
Oatmeal with milk when I get up, an orange with it if I'm not running right away. A Luna bar after running. A banana and a peanut butter sandwich an hour or so later. Then bring on lunch! : )0

But for me... noon (and therefore my first meal) is 7 hours after I wake up.0 -
I usually do 360 every weekday morning.0

Either a fruit smoothie with banana, skim milk, protein powder and some other fresh or frozen fruit; a bowl of oatmeal sometimes with fruit and honey added or cranberries and almonds; or recently started making 2 eggs. Today I had eggs with avocado. Mmm!0

my breakfast is usually one of my top 2 meals of the day calorie wise. i usually take in about 500 - 600 calories. sometimes 700. toss up between breakfast and lunch being #1 in calories. dinner i usually try to trail off with calories, and if at all possible keep it low carb.0

I eat breakfast and I eat around 0- 100 calories depending on what is at home. most days it is 0 cals.0

I've been having 2 eggs, grits, 4 slices of turkey bacon and a slice of sprouted grain bread with cream cheese and jelly for about 450 calories.0

I am a WW member, so I don't actually go by calories. Weight Watchers goes by fat, fiber, carbs, and protein. I eat Fiber One cereal with skim milk every morning for breakfast and a banana. I always eat a light healthy snack mid morning and again mid afternoon. That way you won't be starving by dinner time.0

I usually have 300-500 calories for breakfast depending on my schedule. On mornings that I wake up and eat early before work I will have a smaller breakfast of under 400 (coffee, cream, egg, toast, cream cheese) at 5:30 am and then have a mid-morning snack of yogurt, berries and nuts (around 250-300 cals) at 9am. this way I can make it to lunch at 12:30/1 without eating my patients hahah.
If I wake up and go to the gym I may have closer to 500 calories with more carbs ( 2 pieces of toast instead of 1) because I feel I need them for energy if I want to workout first thing in the morning. Or I will make a protein shake which usually comes to a little over 300 calories.
I think I prefer to have my smallish breakfast and then a morning snack because I enjoy eating all the time (haha) and getting a lot of variety into my day.0 -
I've always eaten pretty big breakfasts of at least 300-400 calories or so. I used to have a just bowl of cereal with milk and be done with it. Granted, my portion size was at least 2-3x what I should've been eating, and the cereal was usually full of sugar and bad stuff. Now I'm trying to get more variety with low-cal protein, fruits, etc. (And if I do turn to cereal, it's always Cheerios with no sugar.) I now have a job that requires me to be on my feet for a good while and do some heavy lifting, so I need a bigger energy boost in the mornings, and I've been trying harder to keep all my meals at about the same amount of calories.0

I stay around 800-1000 calories for breakfast.... I workout in the mornings so I get up and eat around 6:30 and hit the gym around 8 a.m. I have 2 cups of Kashi Go Lean mix with 1 cup of Kelloggs Crave Double Chocolate cereal with my travel mug size coffee and a banana.... If I am not having this then I have 4 pieces of Sara Lee Multi-grain toast with Jiff Natural crunchy peanut butter and honey along with a banana and my coffee and milk.....0

Breakfast is one of my bigger meals. It's usually oats made with milk, egg whites, banana, and peanut butter. I also usually have pineapple in place of the bananas and whey protein as well since it is usually after my workout. typically around 500-800 calories counting my small pre-workout snack before my workout.
My other alternative is usually a veggie/swiss omelette with some protein bread and fruit. Usually around 400 calories.0 -
One cup of coffee. Two on my cheat day. :happy:
I don't eat for 6hrs after I get up.0 -
300-400 calories (if I'm going to exercise, it's probably closer to 400 calories because I usually eat whole wheat toast with pb). If I'm not exercising, I'll have some honey nut cherrios with greek yogurt (closer to 300 cals).0

2n half weetbix and milk with piece of fruit.. umm 350- 400.. depends0
-
just about 300, i have a bowl of porridge with low fat milk and a banana (and blueberries if we have them)
though on rest days i'll have just the banana to lower calories0 -
A banana or apple and greek yogurt0
-
250-400 It depends on what I have. Oatmeal, yogurt and fruit, peanut butter toast and cereal are lower cal. A homemade quiche (even with turkey bacon, fat free evaporated milk and a small amount of cheese) is higher cal, as is scrambled eggs and such.
If I know I am going to be working out ... or just working a lot, I'll eat more. If I know I am going out to dinner that night, I'll try to keep the rest of the day low cal.0
