Breakfast Ideas....

1. Oatmeal, banana, blueberries, nuts, 1/2 cup milk, and top with cinnamon
2. 2 French toast topped with warm blueberries, strawberries, and honey and top with cinnamon
3. better n' eggs substitute - omelette with peppers, onions, and mozzarella cheese, and tomato on the side, 1-2 slice of toast
4. wheat english muffin with 1-2 teaspoon peanut butter and some bananas
5. 1 cup cereal with banana and some milk, add some cinnamon
6. toast with 1 tablespoon peanut butter and bananas, topped with cinnamon

I love cinnamon!

Pancakes!
Eggs, Hash Browns, bacon and Toast!
Sorry that is what I think of for big breakfast.
But very filling small portion breakfast is oatmeal.
I love to put some coconut oil in with the hot water and then maybe some type of fruit cut up into the plain oatmeal.
I don't do the flavored.
But since I don't eat that anymore my usual go to breakfast is 3 pieces of turkey bacon one fried egg and 1/4 of an avocado.
Keeps me full for hours, especially paired with a big cup of tea.

I saw an episode of Dr Oz a few weeks ago saying breakfast should be the biggest meal and the the rest should be smaller through the day. It makes sense. I started eating a bigger breakfast and feel better now. I don't eat for about 2 hours after I wake up, just have coffee and feed the dogs and do some other stuff. I like a late breakfast because my normal routine is leaving around 11am for work. During the busy season I often have very early visits and may leave as early at 4:30 or 5am. But I do come home in a few hours and always eat right away.

I am so hooked on smoothies right now too. Try those if you don't want a lot of food. I usually have a smoothie with a boiled egg or steel cut oats. It may not seem big but it fills me up and gives me energy.

(i hope i'm posting this on the right board?)
i hear everywhere that you're supposed to have a big breakfast, a medium lunch and a small dinner. i keep struggling with this because i usually have 1 slice of toast for breakfast or no breakfast at all.
anyone got some ideas they'd like to share?!

the premise is false. you can spread out your calories however you like.

but if you want a nice big breakfast, try
3 eggs, 2 strips of bacon, 1 slice of toast, 1/2 cup of oats, 2 tbsp of peanut butter, 2 tsp sugar, and 1 scoop of whey protein. That should be about 1000 calories or so.

Avoid any advice following this phrase

^^this.

But if you actually find that you do well on a big breakfast my favorite is egg whites with veggies and cheese, fruit, low sodium v8, coffee, maybe some chicken or turkey sausage (not necessarily all of this at once.) Carbs do me no good in the morning (I am by no means low carb), so I avoid bread/pancakes/waffles for breakfast most days.

If you're not use to any breakfast, you might want to start small and build. Here is my favorite breakfast :

soft-boiled egg
whole wheat toast
-cut off crust for dunking in yolk
1 oz Greek Yogurt
-spread on remaining toast
1 T of Fruit Perserves
-spread on Yogurt and toast

That's 190 calories, 14 g of protein.

If you not much of a mornig eater at all, do a protein shake. I do a protein shake with coffee as my second breakfast.

7-9 oz steak, side of country potatoes, 3-4 scrambled eggs, toast, and a glass of whole milk :-)

Most days for breakfast I have 2 eggs, 4 slices of Butterball thin and crispy turkey bacon, 1 packet of instant grits, and a slice of sprouted grain bread, with 1 tb of cream cheese, and 1/2 tsp of jelly for about 450 calories.

You would want protein in the morning. If you do not have a job that keeps you moving all day, then I would not have to many carbs and sugars. They feel great for a little while but wear off quickly and your hunger comes back.

Every morning I have 6 eggs, scrambled and sometimes Almond Milk with it.

7-9 oz steak, side of country potatoes, 3-4 scrambled eggs, toast, and a glass of whole milk :-)

I dig your meal...a lot...minus the whole milk.
