Staying off carbs period robs you of any energy you might have. What's more important: no energy or @$$-hungry starving? (You should eat every 3-4 hours anyway)

But like he was saying, I'd recommend egg whites - I like hard boiled eggs personally. That, some oatmeal/granola and some fruit and you're good to go

I'll just stick to the cereals like Special K..Just Right..

My normal breakfast consists of a protein shake, one bowl of Fiber 1 cereal with a tiny bit of milk, and a small piece of fruit.

Just use the microwave for oatmeal, why bother with the stove?

I love how people claim microwaved food is bad for you. They obviously don't know how microwave ovens operate.

I usually do cereal (Product 19) and OJ. Maybe some fruit.

Grab a container of yogurt, some whole oats, mix them up in whatever proportion you like, and enjoy. It's damn tasty.


The same applies for yogurt and granola. Using oats is probably healthier, though, since most granolas are packed full of sugar and such.

Heat up some frijoles, scramble a couple of eggs, toss in shredded or cubed meat of choice. Smear frijoles on hot extra large tortilla, add egg and meat mixture, add a handful of grated sharp cheddar cheese, toss on some avocado slices, add a dollop of sour cream, spoon on homemade salsa, roll up and enjoy. You don't have to bother with lunch when you have a good breakfast.

Oatmeal, Grits, Slim Fast shakes.....

Grits can be extremely cheap if you get the non-instant kind. I usually pay $.69 for a box that will last a couple of weeks... Just boil water and cook them for a couple of minutes until they thicken....then let em cool down a bit....eat.
