Your preferred breakfast

always eat . breakfast is THE most important meal of the day and crucial if you want to lose weight i usually drink my black coffee (4 oz, no milk, no sugar) and within 1/2 hr or so i eat either: * 1 slice mix grain bread + low fat yogurt (150-300 grams depends on the brand) or * 1 slice mix grain bread + 0.25 cup diced swiss cheese (low fat) + tomato/pepper or * 1 cup milk 1% + 30 g cereals (different mixes) or * 1 slice mix grain bread + 1 hard boiled egg + pepper/tomato or I might make a smoothie (low fat yogurt /milk + fruits of choice) IF i have to leave home FAST (aka exam or something similar), I grab a cereal bar (99 cal)

Cereal & skim milk. I usually have cereal and skim milk with half a banana. I also like an egg, fried or boiled, with a piece of dry toast. Coffee is a must! I also will settle for a Kashi bar, but only if I have to. Sometimes I'll just have a latte - I figure all that milk counts as a meal in a pinch!

Premier Protein Bar. I like going to bed on an empty stomach, so I don't eat past 7PM. For that reason, I love to eat breakfast. I am pretty much an on the go type person, so about four or five years ago, I started my morning with a Premier Protein Bar and coffee. The bar has 30g of Protein and the sugar content isn't too bad -- 10g. As the morning moves along, I will eat nuts or a salad. Robert O. Young, who touts high-alkaline diet, stresses a nice green, leafy and vegetable salad for breakfast. Although he wouldn't agree with my coffee, I do like the salad in the morning.

Breakfast is a must!. I used to forgo breakfast but I retrained myself to eat it. Now I have oatmeal and a banana or make a parfait of yogurt and fruit with a sprinkle of Grape Nuts on top.

snack to kickstart breakfast!. As suggested by my dietician, I usually have a granola bar in the morning around 9 a.m. She wanted to give me a chocolate alternative and get me eating more in the morning, so a chocolate covered granola bar was the perfect solution (much less fat and calories than a chocolate bar.) Later, I have cereal (multigrain cheerios) with 1% milk (and for a drink, some of a bottle of water) for breakfast around 10 a.m. I feel sick if I eat breakfast any earlier than 9:30 a.m., as I am not a morning person. My son can take the credit for not only getting me up before 11 a.m. but for introducing breakfast before noon into my routine. He gets up at 8 a.m., which means I do too! Note: My breakfast would be much more well-rounded if I added fruit to it. My dietician recommends this breakfast: 1/2 grapefruit, 2 slices whole wheat toast, 1 tsp margarine or lightly spread 1 tbsp jam, 1 cup coffee (I don't drink coffee so this is out)

I love breakfast!. Breakfast is not only my favorite meal of the day, but also my favorite time of day. I get to work an hour early, way before anyone else has arrived. I read a book, or check my email, relax, and settle into my morning. I take a full hour to eat. I bring with me yogurt, fiber cereal, and blueberries or strawberries. I mix it all together in a bowl, and make some tea. MMMMmmmM.
