Hey supermick, i guess it depends what works for your body type. I like to follow the temporal nutrition guide since it seems to go well with my nutty training and general overall feeling. Before I did the temporal thang, some days I had lentils on toast with some skim milk on the side before training. You can try other beans on toast also - i.e. heat up some black beans and plop em on toast or baked beans too. Oat bran with blueberries/strawberries in it. You can add some whey to it.
For me, I always dig the oatmeal with some blackstrap molasses and of course, the obligatory egg whites, sorry, it just works lol

To harsh? Ahahahaha, I wouldn’t worry about that in these parts, just be content that you’ll fit right in.
Anyhow, to the original poster, howabout a hunk of lean meat on toast or something? Just make enough for dinner to have something left over for breakfast.
That way you won’t even have to cook anything in the morning.
A fav of mine used to be leftover chili on toast. I say used to be because I’m too lazy to cook up a good chili and it has been a hell of a long time since I lived at home and didn’t have to cook all my own food.
Kashi makes good cereal. My favorite breakfast is 4-5 eggs (2 whole and the rest just the whites) scrambled. Mix in some chopped ham or leftover steak, a piece of fat free american cheese and a bit of salsa. Them’s good eatin. On the side I have two pieces of protein toast with sugar-free jelly and some fruit. I eat this almost every day. Sometimes I substitue the toast for a bowl of Kashi Crunch.
1 1/2 cups frozen berries (blue, rasp, straw, black)
2 scoops Metabolic Drive Vanilla Powder
1 cup water
1/2 cup Diet V8 Splash Tropical Juice
Put in blender and then drink!
Adjust your protein powder and liquid for the amount of protein you need and how liquidy you like it.
Like I said previously …puffed Kamut and Millet or any whole grain high fiber cereal at health food stores that have no sugar.
The picture is my own sugar free granola I made every week. It is quite easy to make. I use splenda and add dried fruits to it then make “milk” out of protein powder and water and eat that for breakfast or just eat it dry. My husband loves it.
Let me know if you want the recipe I will post it if you are interested in making it for real.

p.s. – Dude, my advice to you is either a REALLY high fiber cereal (to avoid too many carbs) or just start eating lunch/dinner foods for breakfast. (IE chicken, tuna, etc.) Not many other choices![/quote]
There you go. Mix a cup of FiberOne cereal (28 grams of fiber, about 11 grams of net carbs) with a cup of Raisin Bran (another 7 grams of fiber, about 38 net carbs). Since you’re going to be watching your carbs now that you’ll be starting the T-Dawg Diet, throw in some water mixed in with one or two scoops of Metabolic Drive.
You’ll get about sixty grams of carbs in the morning (which, aside from peri-workout, is really the only time you can have them), 35 grams of fiber (you’ll never be more regular), and, depending on how much Metabolic Drive you use, between 25 and 50 grams of protein. It’ll hold you over until your second breakfast, at which point I hope you’ll reach for a thick steak or some chicken. Hope this helps.
This morning: 1/2lb top round steak that I grilled last night 1 apple, hand full of red grapes.
I dig oatmeal but I never have alot of time to cook so sometimes i have 1/2 a cup dry with plenty of H20. Plenty!
When I have time I make a shake with 1/2 cup oatmeal (that I have put in a food processor and ground to almost a powder) 50g whey protein, 1 banana and one splenda and 16oz whole milk MMM MMM Good!
My guy mixes a few scoops of protein powder with a few cups of milk in a large mixing bowl. He then adds 2/3 box of his favorite cold cereal, usually something healthy like Honey Nut or Plain Cheerios or Honey Nut Shredded Wheat. He eats this with a large spoon, while simultaneously grunting, “mmmm good”. This is his favorite breakfast, and even snack, by far.
Sidenote: We have a ton of recycled Protein Powder containers. They’re great to store dry goods, most especially, they hold and keep very fresh for long periods of time cold cereals (in which case he pours 1/2 canister of cereal into his milk/protein powder mixture), and they also store well Rice, Dried Beans, Baking Products, Oats, Quinoa, etc.

You are a genius. Those containers would be perfect for storing cereals and the like, especially in places where there are lots of critters and varmints running about looking for handy food sources. I wonder how many palmetto bugs and field mice have achieved super hypertrophy with the help of poorly sealed oatmeal containers? I have several empties piled up. I was going to chuck 'em out - I mean how many loose change containers do I need? Thanks Doll!

she is a genius because she figured out how to look smoking fucking hot, and hold down a job as a nurse. figuring out that plastic keeps food safe pales in comparison

Aww thanks you guys!! This may sound a little mean, but I hear it all the time…My guy friends tease me, “You’re a charge nurse? No charge nurses look like you! You need to gain 70 pounds, girl!”
for breakfast I like to have a cup of cottage cheese, a 1/2 to 3/4 a cup of bran cereal and some fruit all mixed up into one bowl. It’s quick, cheap and tasty!
