Balanced Breakfast--what do you do?

You could try other grains, like quinoa, buckwheat, teff. The texture is a bit different, and the taste is as well.
 
Glycemic Index--I think that's the key here! I think my issue has more to do with blood sugar than hunger. If I only got HUNGRY a couple hours after breakfast, no big deal. But my problem is more of an unsatisfied sluggishness.

I think I'll inform myself further about the glycemic index thing. Thanks for the tip!

Oh, and I also love the hard-boiled egg idea! I bet adding one of those to my breakfast would help. I've only ever tried scrambled or fried, but hate the to-do. However, I could boil a few eggs in advance and refrigerate--quick, easy! Cool!

Regarding sausage (taking a moment to ROTFLMAO): I don't have a problem with sausage! It's good! I just...I guess I didn't want to make it a regular part of my diet, because of fat content. That's all, really!

Thanks everybody,

Gisela
 
Cynthia,
Your pancakes sound very interesting to me,
Is the oatmeal that you are adding already cooked or is it just the oats out of the container.

Thank you! Rhonda
 
My fulfilling breakfast might surprise you. I just started the YOU diet and I'm slowly incorporating the meals into my daily menus. The following breakfast is in the YOU diet and I thought, "There's no way that's going to fill me up!" I was wrong:

A bowl of Cheerios with milk and blueberries (no sugar added)
A cup of Orange Juice with pulp
A cup of blueberry herbal tea with stevia (no sugar)

I could not finish my breakfast! I ended up forcing down the last two bites of cereal, but put 1/3 of the cup of juice back in the fridge. And I didn't need anything else until it was time for my 10:00 snack...but I could've gone longer if I'd had to. I just like to eat every 3-4 hours to keep from getting famished.
