What's on your plate?

Because of the timing of feedings/me trying to sleep when I can, I seem to be missing breakfast, getting hangry, and then eating like a monster around 11.

What do you eat for breakfast???

  • Nature Valley granola bars, usually some form of chocolate, and maybe cereal if I can get my hands free. This is eaten over a 3-4 hour period with a nap in between. Breastfeeding makes me hungry!

  • Fiber one bars and bananas. Once LO is all calm I set her in her swing and have a late oatmeal breakfast.

    And I second @ccip82 lots and lots of coffee. My sis gave us a keurig for Christmas and it's been a lifesaver for making coffee one handed.

  • Cereal, coffee, protein bars. Sometimes just a spoonful of peanut butter.

  • Coffee...endless amounts of coffee. With a gallon of flavored creamer in it as well as a ton of splenda (because I'm so health conscious, lol)....and if I actually get to eat something it's probably a poptart or a handful of pb capt crunch cereal. But I'm only eating the crap so my kids can have the oatmeal and the healthy cereals because I'm more concerned about their health than mine....(that's what I tell myself, anyway..) ;)

  • I'm taking iron supplements, and I'm not allowed to consume dairy/drink coffee or black tea/a million other things, so currently my breakfast is hot water with lemon and a slice or two of dry, iron enriched whole grain bread. Bleh.

  • Lately Oreos because they're easy to grab while making two bottles.
  • Fiber one bars and chocolate. ALL OF THE CHOCOLATE!

    But seriously, if I have 2 hands- oatmeal.
    I also really like the Lance brand whole grain crackers with peanut butter.

  • Nothing yet, payback for cookies for dinner I guess. Usually I have 2 links of jimmy dean sausage, waffles or oatmeal, yogurt, and coffee. Prebaby just cereal and coffee. hoping for 3 food groups even when work starts, not counting coffee. ;)

  • Typically, I'll have oatmeal, a cereal bar or a protein bar, maybe a banana, and coffee. Or sometimes I'll have cereal instead of oatmeal, but usually it's oatmeal to help keep my supply up.

    Today I added a piece of leftover 7up cake that my husband's aunt made for us. Very yummy.
  • I had chocolate chip cookies and a banana. I go back to work Wednesday, so I'll actually get to eat breakfast when I get into the office

  • I have been having Cheerios or yogurt with granola lately. I get hungry a couple hours later and grab a banana, granola bar, or yogurt as a snack sometime before lunch.

    I love Cheerios with either cut up banana in it or blueberries. Boiled eggs are always good and yogurt!! Toast with peanut butter and honey is one of my favs.
  • I usually have toast, cereal or oatmeal.
    No coffee (I wish, it makes my heartburn flare up horribly) Most mornings I get the kids fed and I get to me about lunch time.
  • @chicki1012 Pb and honey is one of my favorites! It makes the best lunch when paired with homemade bread. Yum.

  • Most mornings I eat oatmeal with fruit and a glass of milk. Occasionally I'll have a bowl of Shredded Wheat instead, but I prefer the oatmeal. 
                                                                                                            

  • Oatmeal with fruit and almond milk most days. Other days it's toast and almond butter with a piece of fruit. Instead of coffee, I get hot water and lemon :(

  • Longtime lurker, occasional poster. I'm hoping this will change your life like it did mine!  My go to breakfast is refrigerator oatmeal. There's a bunch of flavours you can make (found on pinterest!). I believe the website was www.theyummylife.com. I recommend the blueberry maple and pumpkin pie versions. It's basically oats, greek yogurt, milk, chia seeds plus whatever add ins for the flavour you pick. Mix it in mason jars and refrigerate overnight. I make 3 days worth at a time. Lately I've been doubling the recipe because EBF makes me ravenous. It's full of protein and super filling and did I mention tastes like dessert?! 
  • Most days I eat oatmeal. Since I have to feed DS1 I make a point to eat. I can manage to make and eat oatmeal one handed and can reheat it if I have to. I don't like eating cereal because it goes soggy on me before in can finish.

  • slmille4 and others - Regular or decaf coffee?  I have been sticking to decaf because I don't want to end up giving the little man anything that will make him more awake than he already is!  But I know having some caffeine would help me feel less zombie-like...

    I have regular coffee. It does not seem to bother DS. I also have a tendency to start a cup of coffee, put it down, and forget about. Instead of drinking old coffee I make another cup. I probably average out to two cups a day. I also drink tons of water.

  • I usually eat after my the 4,5,6 am feedings depending on which times he's up. I don't eat after all lol. Usually cereal or pb&j. Then I eat again at like 7-9 whatever is a fast breakfasty snack. Granola bars, toast, muffins
  • I'm doing a meal supplement shake that's similar to the Beach Body Shakeology stuff, or I do a bowl of 2% milk and Special K, or a bowl of oatmeal. I try not to do a whole lot right now because I don't have much of an appetite these days.

    Breakfast is actually the one place we have some routine. I have oatmeal with added granola and nuts and coffee (coffee coffee) while DH does the morning diaper and outfit change.

    Unless, of course, we have avocado, like we do right now. Then I eat toast on avocado as many meals a day as I can.

  • At 8:30 am a banana and multigrain Cheerios, I was feeling super healthy. Totally blew it with lunch though that was Girl Scout cookies, dove milk chocolate truffles and coffee:)

    I drink regular coffee...hasn't seemed to cause any problems for LO, thank goodness, because I definitely need the caffeine! I usually drink 2 to 3 cups a day but not all at one time, usually spread out over the morning to maybe early afternoon.

  • DS usually lets me eat breakfast in peace (dinner is another story). I usually have cereal or oatmeal and either a bagel thin or fruit (or both if I am starving). And coffee ... lots of coffee.
