For some reason breakfast is my hardest meal to figure out for ttc blue, what was your standard pre girl sway breakfast? TIA.

Oh and in the spirit of sharing I was a 2 egg white 1 whole and a single serving of Kashi Vanilla hot cereal or Special K. I rarely skipped but I never ate more then 300-400 cals and always weighed/measured my quantities to religiously tracking my calories. Pink dust for you all :)

I always had a bowl of cereal, usually something Kashi. On the weekends I would have eggs and turkey bacon. A cup of coffee in the morning, and I would drink tea throughout the day.

i normally eat a bagel and cream cheese, or english muffin with cheese and veggie sausage, cereal, oatmeal, or grits with toast and fried potatoes. always apple or orange juice with it. i eat a lot of small meals all time though and thats what's been really hard for me to break while swaying.

I always have a large glass of juice with 2 slices of multigrain toast with marmite (it's very salty)

3pink Same here I have no clue what to eat ( don't even like breakfast) so I eat bagel with ham, or egg with bacon, egg with potato , some dry fruit with nuts...just don't know what else to eat??

Got some special K with cinnamon -pecan and another K with multi grain oat& honey. Is this good for cereal to eat? I read somewhere that not all cereals are good for ttc blue...:think: but what is the best?

Also I don't want to eat much milk what else can we mix? (some1 said almond milk is that ok?)

Do you know when actually we have to eat breakfast?? Like how some after wake up? I have so much to do on the morning I can only eat after an hour or sometimes 2 after I waked up!

hmmm seems like the common consensus here is carbs with a touch of protein (milk in the cereal, marmite, etc) or no protein at all.

Come on I want more info from more ladies!!

Jen, I'm sorry for writing this in the wrong place, I know you don't need the answers from blue swayers lol! I just wanted to help Flava about cereals, here's the thread http://genderdreaming.com/forum/showthread.php?1822-Can-somebody-tell-the-best-cereal-to-have-while-ttc-boy

Also here is the advice about how and when to eat our meals, it seems we should be snacking something throughout the day:worry:

Interesting Q Jen! I've been doing 2 whole eggs, 1 slice of toast with butter and salt, 2 slices of bacon, and some form of fruit, either a melon or banana usually. And I drink coffee with a bit of milk and agave.

When I got pg with my girls I would eat Kashi cereal, usually Golean Crunch. I also loved having a big bowl of yogurt with dry, rolled oats, honey, a handful of nuts and some berries. My protein when I got pg with my ladies was usually in the form of dairy, or beans/quinoa, or veggie burgers ... I would go days w/o meat.

I am super curious to see more answers to this question too!

I used to eat a big bowl of yoghurt with crunchy muesli and a cup of black or herbal tea when I conceived the boys, usually half an hour after I woke up.
And snacks (fruit, cake, biscuits, cheese) appr. every 2 hours!

I have several breakfasts that I like but I always drink TEA with lots of milk!!!

1)1/2 cup walnuts or almonds (sometimes with an apple or dates)
2)4 OZ. cheese (sometimes iwth apple or dates)
3)Oatmeal either with peanut butter or an apple and cinnamon
4)Mashed avocado with salsa
5)Egg taco with salsa
6)Bagel either with cream cheese or egg and cheese

FLAVA if you can't eat right away, can you get a protein bar or something like that you can eat while you are running around in the morning?? I think it's best to eat as soon as you can after waking up.

Oh yeah and that cereal is fine for TTC blue! And I like almond milk for blue too.
