Favorite Breakfast Foods



Recommended Posts

So when it comes to Breakfast, I'm looking for quick, easy, "clean" and loaded with Protein. I used to do a Pure Protein Bars, but am looking for a cleaner option with similar amount of protein (20grams)

Any suggestions would be great!

Greek yogurt with a few fresh berries on top. Occasionally I'll add a half a scoop of Protein powder to my yogurt to bump up the Protein even more

I do yogurt or eggs a lot, but those don't have all the Protein you want. You could always eat the non traditional Breakfast foods like fish, chicken, etc

I have a "real food" Protein packed breakfast I love:

I tend to omit the arugula, but I usually do about 3/4 cup of the lentil mixture and one egg. This gives you about 225 calories and 21 grams of Protein.< /p>

To me, it has a similar to taste to Huevos Rancheros.

I buy the grilled chicken from Trader Joe's and just chop up 3 ounces in the morning. 90 calories, 0 carbs, 19 grams of Protein and it takes under 2 minutes to prepare. Hard to beat.

I eat deli turkey (2 oz) wrapped around a piece of low-fat cheddar and fruit (usually 1/4 cup blackberries and 1/4 cup blueberries but sometimes some apple slices). If I have time (and depending on my food plans for the day), I add a piece of whole grain toast. Every once in a while I will try the yogurt, but I seem to be not as satisfied, so it is not my usual go to.

Depending on how early I eat that day, I will have a Premier Protein for a morning snack (a couple of hours after breakfast).

I am always out the door B4 breakfast so must make and carry mine with me.

For quick gathering, I enjoy some mornings to have Cottage cheese with fruit and stevia, or even cheese for a more savory taste.

The mornings I go the gym B4 work and breakfast, I make and pack Protein shakes, and with all the different varieties I can think up to get Protein and carbs at right levels.

My favorite breakfast is oatmeal made with Water. Cook 3/4 cups of dry oatmeal with 1 1/4 cup of skim milk. Add 1 chopped apple and 1/4 cup of brazil nuts. Sprinkle with cinnamon and drizzle with honey. Total: 24 grams of Protein. Brazil nuts are rich in Proteins, dietary Fiber and fat. They are good for heart and skin health, as well as cancer prevention. https://wikihomenutrition.com/brazil-nuts-health-benefits/

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
