What is your normal breakfast?
Nothing? The same thing every day?
Do you switch it up?

Re: What is your normal breakfast?
I switch it up between a few things during the week: eggs and toast, oatmeal and a banana, cereal (like raisin bran) and a banana, and sometimes peanut butter toast. I usually have a small glass of juice or milk with it.
During the weekend we will have bigger breakfasts: eggs, hasbrowns, sausage/bacon; pancakes or waffles and bacon. About once a month we like to go to our local donut shop or one of the local breakfast joints.
If I got too long after waking without eating I get migraines. It helps that breakfast is by far my favorite meal of the day.

We've been making smoothies for breakfast lately and plan to continue.
Whatever fresh fruit we have from our bountiful baskets and then we supplement w/ 1 frozen fruit. We use whole milk and a scoop of vanilla protein powder.
this means that I don't have to wait until Lucy goes down for a nap to eat and I feel much better for it.
Plus Lucy likes it too!
I usually have a small bowl of cereal at home and when I get to work I have yogurt with granola and berries.
On the weekend it varies wildly.
I would like to say steel cut oatmeal with fruit and maybe a tiny bit of brown sugar and milk, but I got out of that habit. Lately, it's been nothing.
Today it was two chocolate chip cookies.
(I made them for B as his gift yesterday)

I'm not a big eater first thing in the morning. I usually bring a piece of fruit and yogurt with me as breakfast/afternoon snack. I'll eat the fruit in the morning if I get hungry (I usually drink coffee, tea, or water too and sometimes that fills me up enough) and usually save the yogurt for the afternoon if I want a snack before going home.
On the weekends we get up late, like 10ish, so we don't eat breakfast and have an early lunch around 11-11:30.
I generally have the same thing every day. Two pieces of toast, either with sugar-free strawberry jam, margarine, or peanut butter. Today it was peanut butter
I also bring a banana and small container of applesauce for my mid-morning snack. Once in a while I'll have a container of yogurt with my breakfast too.
I'm always starving by 9-10am, so I'm thinking about having eggs/egg whites for breakfast.
During the week I always have oatmeal with brown sugar. I'm so sick of it but I'm eating it to help with milk production and it is easy to make at my desk and eat while I pump.
Weekends it varies.
Kind of switch it up.
1) Some sort of pumped up oatmeal, make in the crockpot and put in individual containers for the week. No instant oatmeal packets. I like the Hungry Girl oatmeal recipes.
2) Breakfast burritos, make a bunch with about a 3:1 egg white:full egg ratio with bell peppers, onions, black beans, and spinach. Wrapped in a low-carb tortilla and freeze a bunch so we can grab whenever.
3) Greek yogurt/berries/granola or kashi cereal- more of a warm weather breakfast and when fresh berries are cheap (usually strawberries or blueberries)
4) Whatever egg scramble w/ veggies DH has made for the day, served with whole wheat toast.
