I went looking for cereal I could ear for breakfast and stay full. Needless to say everything I saw had more than 6grams of sugar and was low in protein. What are you eating?

Bear naked Granola. theres one that has 10g of protein in 1/4 cup. so half a cup is 20g of protein. I mix wth yogurt.

a hard boiled egg goes down ok for me, scrambled eggs make me feel sick. Weird!

Breakfast is where I always try getting in my protein shake or smoothie. I've noticed that if I don't get it in for breakfast then I always end up short on protein for the day.

I like TVP, Textured Vegetable Protein, for breakfast. You find it in the baking isle of most larger grocery stores. I boil 1/3 cup in 1 cup of water. When the water has boiled away, I add 1/4 cup of skim milk. At this point you can add anything you want. Fresh fruit, cinnamon, sugar free vanilla syrup, Truvia, are all things I have added. It has 18 grams of protein, very low in sugars, very filling, and it stays with you. Takes about 15 minutes to make, but worth it for me.

For a faster breakfast I like Greek Yogurt with a Tablespoon of ground flax seed. I like Dannon Lite & Fit. 13 grams of protein, low in sugar.

Oatmeal or cream of wheat with fruit and nuts. I like banana walnut or apple almond.

My NUT told me no oatmeal or cream of wheat (after the pureed stage). No protein, and every meal needs to have at least 10 grams. If you can add protein powder to it you might make it work and some use protein shakes to make it, but I didn't like that. It is why I was so happy to find out about the TVP.

My go to breakfast options are:

1/4 of a banana sliced with Peanut Butter

A grande nonfat iced latte (10 grams of protein)

A scrambled egg with a bit of cheese and a piece of bacon.

Southwestern eggbeaters and turkey sausage, Greek yogurt with bear naked granola, protein shake, hard boiled egg and a slice of lean ham, protein pancakes.. These are just some of the things I have for breakfast.

I'm not allowed to have protein shakes or supplements so it shows how different everyone's plans are.

Thanks for the tip. I am going to try them this weekend!

You are absolutely correct. My clinic encourages keeping one shake a day for life. They caution against nuts because they are high in fat and calories. So many different plans!
