Just discovered I can only eat 1 piece of small toast in the morning UNLESS it is 2 pieces of toast with cheese in between. The more cheese, the better it goes down. Why? Silly band.

I am always super tight in the morning..... I can handle a scambled egg with some turkey kielbasa (2oz) cut up into it in the morning. I just throw in the microwave in a bowl. 1 minute=Breakfast. Or an egg over easy on a half a piece of toast. The yolk helps and it is good Protein too. I never eat right away-I have to wait. I have some warm tea w/lemon and that helps.

Every now and then I can handle a toasted bagel (half of one) with some laughing cow lite cheese on it. But there is NO WAY i can eat it first thing in the morning. More like 10 or 11am.

Also-- I have found that when I have an egg and a little turkey sausage I stay full much longer than when I have toast or bagel or Cereal. But I am a carb addict and have to watch the carbs I eat.

I like the yogarts, yogart smoothies, oatmeal, apple sauguage with yogart, eggs, bacon, turkey sauguage for fullness or soup for breakfast if I am home. All these are smooth I have a tough time with toast, bagel, or foods that are not moist. Try a few different foods and see what works for you.

I usually cannot eat until about 11 am. And then it is very minimal. I start my day with some coffee or tea and one small square of chocolate. On the weekend, we'll do a late breakfast and I'll eat 1/2 an egg and 1/3 piece of sausage. I loosen up throughout the day, but I am really NOT a big eater in general, now. LOL

I ususally stick to low fat yogurt, yogurt smoothies and the snack cups of low fat cottage cheese for breakfast. Usually have a few berries or a slice of melon with it. On the weekends when I have time, I soft scramble an egg with milk so it's not so sticky. I grew up eating sliced avocado with eggs, and that goes down easy as well. If it's really cold out (rarely happens here) I make the Quaker Weight Control oatmeal and add half a scoop of protein powder. I've put protein powder in my pancake batter as well, but not very often. I use applesauce instead of syrup. My family thinks it's gross, but I like it.
