  • I'm sure most of us used to skip breakfast now we can't survive with out it!
    How do you get a great start to your day?

    Today I had:

    heart to heart cereal (1 point/cup) mixed with FF yogurt (boston cream pie flavour - 2 points)
    3 strips of turkey bacon (1 point)

    I will list more later...
    but I want to hear some great breakfast ideas!!

  • Great idea...breakfast really does mean something.

    I eat breakfast around 10 am..and the protien really helps and makes a difference.

    2 fried eggs with a little cheese and a few strips of bacon.

    And of course..large coffee.

  • I usually have it @ 7:00. Today I waited until 9:00. small bagel w/ peanut butter. no coffee.
  • Breakfast has never really been my thing, I know that it is important, but never really cared much for breakfast food. So for me today:

    1 slice of Pillsbury mix banana bread (3 points)
    Water!
  • I have too much to do in the mornings so I pick something that I can stick in my bag and eat in the car or once I get to work. For the last 6 months it's been a ZonePerfect Bar. It has lots of protein so it keeps me going. I don't drink coffee. During the week I drink a liter of water with it. (On the weekends I have tea).
  • Water and a WW Smoothie - all protein, low on carbs.
  • I typically eat either a banana or a FF yogurt mixed with 1/2 C. of Fiber One cereal. I've found if I eat carbs in the morning, I burn out quickly & want to eat something right away again. With protein & fiber, I stay full much, much longer.
  • breakfast!
    I used to never eat breakfast before I started losing weight. I would eat in the breakroom at work on my first break and eat vending machine donuts or a huge bagel with two packets of cream cheese!!

    Now I eat Morningstar Farms veggie sausage. I heat them up, then add shredded cheese on top and heat again. There is hardly any carbs in this so if I eat this at 7 am I am not actually hungry until noon!! It may sound high in calories but I allow myself 2000 a day and still lose weight.

  • Laura..
    how many calories are the sausages? do they really fill you up? I love turkey bacon!! - and it does a pretty good job of filling me up.
    do you use the low fat cheese or the real stuff?
  • breakfast today:
    1/2 banana 1 pt
    2 slices low cal/low carb toast 1 pt
    1 T peanut butter 2 pt
    low cal/high calcium hot chocolate 0 points .. love that stuff
  • breakfast today: eggbeaters scrambled with veggie sausage, asparagus, onions and half a grapefruit.....and water. Yum!!

    actually the grapefruit was not scrambled in with the eggs...it was separate.
  • After my walk and shower, I got dressed and looked around and I have 15 minutes to spare! Whoa.

    So, I hauled out the Kashi Go Lean Crunch (now my boyfriend's favorite cereal) and had a bowl and a glass of milk.


  • You all are so healthy!

    I had the typical today

    Coffee
    water
    2 fried eggs with a slice of cheese and 3 bacon strips.

    Water.
  • Today's breakfast:

    key lime yogurt with heart to heart cereal - 3 points
