What's for breakfast?!



Recommended Posts

So what are some of your favorite Breakfast go-to's? I love cooking but I've never been a big breakfast person. One of my favorite and simple breakfasts is salmon lox. I know it's not going to appeal to everyone but it does ok on covering a lot of the nutrients I'm looking for. I very rarely eat any bread products but these English muffins are ok for me. I've added the totals for my breakfast. My tracker doesn't subtract for dietary Fiber so my carbs would be 9. I'm aware that it's not a lot of calories but it's all my stomach can handle in the am. No, I don't eat and drink. I still wait 30 mins before and after. I've tried to drink with food once and it was not pretty! So what do you eat for breakfast?! I use to be a shake girl but I'm trying to get away from so many shakes! I MUST have my coffee, if it comes between coffee or food sadly I will chose coffee. My son knows his momma! Ha! don't judge!

3 ounces of chili lime chicken breast for me -- that's my standard Breakfast. It is super easy (I buy it from Trader Joe's already cooked, just chop it up), extremely low calorie, low carb, high Protein, and very filling. :D

eta: I start my day with coffee, 2-3 cups of black coffee. But that's usually about 5 AM and I don't eat breakfast until about 11, so I think of them as completely separate!

@@Bufflehead You're so lucky to have a Trader Joe's!! We don't have one. I lived at that store when I was on contract in Baltimore! I've decided I don't have to eat "breakfast-type" food for breakfast anymore. It's a hard realization for my brain to process.

I am super lazy about breakfast and I always just eat it at work, so I have a Protein bar AFTER I drink my first cup of coffee for the day. Currently I'm eating Cinnamon Twist Combat Crunch Protein Bars for breakfast now that Quest Bars are no longer an option for me. :(

I still drink my Premier shake every morning so I can drink my coffee at the same time. Priorities, you know.

I'll have a nice breakfast like omelette's and stuff on the weekends. But coffee is ALWAYS first. Like I said, priorities.

@@JamieLogical They screwed up our bars! I'm not doing bars anymore either. They aren't agreeing with my stomach.

@@Babbs Me too Babbs. That's why I drank shakes so much! I've had a lot of down time just focusing on school and not picking up many hours so I'm trying to work on eating "real" food. It's not easy!

@@Elode

you are soooo nosey :angry: :lol:

GNC Total Lean 25gr high Protein shake (swiss chocolate)

pre-mixed bottle - can't get better than that

i drink it veryyy slowly (put glass down, wait, etc)

it fills my little tummy

in a couple of hours i usually have a babybell cheese as a snack

works for me

if i'm feeling really rambunctious (thanx Webster!!)

i'll make a couple of scrambled eggs with sliced green peppers

and fresh mushrooms (yum yum)

i know there are some people that can't stomach eggs

i never had a problem

if i don't have either one of the above

maybe i'll have a dozen donuts

ooooops that was in my previous life :D

love my double chocolate chuck Quest Protein Bar at night

i have read here earlier that something is different about them

maybe not great to have, something in them bad???

they taste great to me

you better not try and take my Quest away from me

people have been shot for less!! :o

@@proudgrammy You're so funny! Yes they have gas makers in them....that's not the professional term for the ingredient but it's the one I'm going to use. When they make a statement about how to "ease" into eating them I pulled the plug. I'm not going to go through all that drama to eat a dang bar!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
