What's for breakfast?

Am doing the 5:2 diet at present. Its much easier than any other one I've tried. Smoked salmon and a poached egg for breakfast washed down with 2 mugs of coffee. Lovely!

stansgran! . Can you eat them with Weetabix? Could I skip the Weetabix and just have the prunes in brandy? Does it count as one of my five a day? .

Tescos sell one with no added sugar, so do Sainsburys. Both are very good, and you can add extra fresh fruit to them if you like. I mix together a bag of sugarless and a bag of berry granola and put it into a tall Tupperware container. That is my breakfast, with homemade Greek yoghurt/honey. Sometimes I use fruit juice instead of the yoghurt. It makes it completely different.

Tricia make your own muesli. GreyDuster buy pruneaux d'agen and soak them in brandy to have post pyramid ally??post prandially.[ Stupid ignorant ipad. I love it really.]

Lots of strong coffee, 2 slices of whichever bread is open, with butter and marmite. No specific time, just when I'm hungry, like now!

The same every day of the year- two slices of wholemeal toast with butter, marmalade and a mug of coffee. I eat this when I am hungry not any specific time.

Eggs for breakfast. Sometimes scrambled with salmon, sometimes with bacon and occasionally poached or boiled. For a rare treat, and because I had it every day for breakfast on holiday and I'm not ready to give it up, I have a huge watermelon that I'm working my way through too.

As a side issue, have you ever checked the ingredients in cereals? It's difficult to find one now without sugar. Husband is fussy about no sugar and I can only find one muesli that is sugar-free. Some even have bits of chocolate.

Boiled eggs and soldiers...white bread 'proper' butter , tomato juice and a latte :-) .......heaven !

A cup of hot water with honey and a slice of lemon, porride and fruit and a cup of coffee today.

Two eggs laid this morning and scrambled with home grown chillis. Two cups of tea.

I have different things, depending on how I feel, toast with butter and marmalade one day, porridge the next, a boiled egg ( or two) etc and this morning I had a yummy toasted fruit teacake with a chopped banana.The only constant each morning is two large mugs of tea.

I don't eat until I have brunch at about 11.30, to get the fasting benefit. I then usually have eggs in some form and perhaps some bacon and tomato.

Thank goodness another egg eater - not many of us savoury girls on here!

I had scrambled eggs, smoked salmon, a tomato and more coffee

I always have a soft boiled egg with 2 slices of toast, one white one wholemeal. The wholemeal keeps me 'regular'. Plus orange juice. Not keen on cereals, or porridge.
Husband has muesli and a banana, and orange juice.

A bowl of nutty seedy muesli (yum) with some rice crispies mixed in in an endeavour to reduce the flatulencial effects of the oats.

Soon be porridge weather.

I actually hate prunes, Ann, but if I didn't eat them voluntarily, DH would tie me to a chair and force feed them to me, as he is the world's greatest advocate of prunes and their effect on the digestive system. He is really very boring on the subject of prunes, so I eat them just to keep him quiet!!

Just had a bowl of porridge on our return from the supermarket run. DH treated himself to two almond croissants. Coffee for him and tea for me.

A bowl of gf cornflakes! Saturday and Sundays - two gf crumpets with butter and syrup.

Porridge with maple syrup, a sliced nectarine and a large handful of blueberries. Big mug of coffee after fruit.

Bowl of fruit and fibre in the summer and porridge in the winter. Just about manage to get that down, if I don't DH moans at me.

Granola with a few seeds and nuts. Soft fruit too when we have it. Two cups of coffee and that does me. I could happily go till lunchtime without eating but I need my coffee.

This morning I had 'overnight' oats.
Sometimes porridge or Weetabix with fruit. Occasionally grilled bacon , poached egg and a slice of toast.

Always a big mug of tea, can't abide coffee first thing.

Can't go without or by 10ish I start to feel a bit faint .

Glad it's not just me that was at one Weetabix. I would love to say I'd be happy with that.
I had a small bowl of Tesco strawberry crisp and just making my cup of tea.
