Breakfast

[Flava]

I cook the oatmeal with milk that's how I grow up . Tryed with water and can't stand it. it's like a wet dog ( sorry for ppl who like it here)
But use whole milk!
Oh got some pic of it will put it up in a bit!
there is also larabars to eat. I mix honey nut cheerios with all brain and whole milk and raisins too.

I eat:
1. Oat flakes with banana and full fat yogurt ( 1/2 cup) - yogurt is great source of Potassium, too bad it contains Calcium as well

2. Whole grain bread with butter, salami and tomato

3. Eggs (scrambled?) with tomatoes again

4. Toast with an excellent spread I believe is totally boy friendly ( blend tomatoes and the same number of garlic clovers- for e- 4 tomatoes, 4 garlic clovers, olive oil, origano, basil and oversalt it with sea salt put salami on the top for proteins

5. Chips ( only if I don't have time, which is quite often )

It's delicious! It's even better with feta cheese, so once you get BFP, try it that way! Enjoy and bon appetite!

[Bumblebee]

ahhh tomatoes! I should try that on eggs too! cheers!

Well, with the Wheaties I am using either 2% milk or half and half. Probably way more calcium than IG recommends but I know there are differing theories on that. That rice milk crap is just awful though.

Whole milk is even better!

I am weird because I LIKE the rice milk!!!

[atomic sagebrush]

Oh and I forgot to post my boy breakfast...1/2 c of walnuts, almonds or cashews with dates, dry apricots, or an apple or orange!

I sometimes ate 4 oz of cheese with the fruit instead, and when avocados are cheap I would mash an avocado with salsa and eat that for breakfast.

[atomic sagebrush]

is the raisins part for the protein or the potassium or both? im getting so mixed up in all this!!! thinking oranges are proteins and carrots are l-arginines...ugh

What Begonia said plus raisins/grapes have other phytonutrients in them that are good for TTC boy.

Oatmeal by itself has protein and then if you put a little bit of milk on it, it's a complete protein with all the amino acids in it.

[Alexis2007]

Gizmo raisins are good for potassium/alkaline but they don't have much protein. If you want protein with oatmeal (a serving alone has about 6g) I would rec cooking it with milk, or adding milk!

I eat eggs and bacon and fruit. Pretty much the same thing every am! 4 slices of bacon and 2 eggs, with bananas and apples and oranges. I also drink a big ol' glass of juice :-)

I have my oatmeal with milk! I'm not worried about my calcium intake, it has always been low anyways. LOL The raisins give the oatmeal an added flavor too I have this EVERY day.
