Bowl of Allbran with water and some fruit followed by peanut butter on toast.
Both of which I have to share with out cats..
Bertie waits by the toaster for his Peanut Butter (he licks the knife and gets the odd nibble out of the toast).

Week days or weekend riding days - coffee and granola
Non riding weekends - coffee, pain au chocolat, banana.
Everyday - 20mg Citalopram
Obviously this is First Breakfast.
I'm partial to a tin of sardines in olive oil much to the horror of my colleagues on early shifts. Failing that its porridge with either cranberries or blueberries, pumpkin seeds, cinnamon and honey. Either way, fresh black coffee is a must!
Everyday – 20mg Citalopram
+1
A large cup of Aeropress Coffee with skimmed milk and A bowl of Shreddies that Red Rum couldn't get over
You all sound quite a healthy bunch.
What I really want for breakfast isn't porridge but: 2 x pain au chocolate, a big bacon barm and poached eggs with avocado, a big juicy navel orange and 2 slices of toast with lime marmalade. Alas one has to look after one's figure.
Very often scrambled eggs on toast / bagel / tattie scone.
When I’m early shift all bets are off and it’s whatever I can grab at 6am before getting out the door - I’m not one of these morning people that goes to the gym and then has second breakfast once they get to work.
Muesli or granola, with coconut milk or skimmed milk. One of those little pots of drinking yogurt, black coffee.
Occasionally add a croissant, or toast and marmalade, maybe orange juice.
Winter I’ll have porridge with dried fruits if I can be bothered. Once in a blue moon will be a variation of cooked breakfast, varying quantities of cooked pig and eggs.
Mostly fairly healthy except for the sugar rush from shop bought cereals.
Porridge is the only thing that keeps me going till lunchtime.
What keeps me going to lunchtime is not having breakfast. On the occasions I do have anything at breakfast time I'm hungry again by 10.30 / 11ish. If I don't eat breakfast then I'm not hungry at all.
Coffee, followed by secondary coffee.
If I've managed to get to the butchers then its a couple of rolls on lorne., or a couple of lamb burgers and cheese.
I know, not very healthy.
Espresso.
Then tea.
If it's a work day I have two Weetabix.
If it's a non-work day and I can be bothered I have French Toast. If I'm really going for it I'll add bacon.
If it's a big day and I need the fuel I'll have Huevos Rancheros:
https://www.goodto.com/recipes/mexican-breakfast-eggs
If you've never tried this I urge you to give it a go.There are hundreds of different recipes, but as far as I can tell they are all good. Like Spaghetti Carbonara.
The wife and I have porridge (50g each, full fate oats) with soft boiled eggs (one for her, two for me) with sliced green onions and sriracha.
Lush.
Porridge with onions and eggs? I thought having chutney or aubergine pickle on toast was strange! And.. full fate oats? I’d rather not know!
A full fry up is the only meal I could never get bored of, I look forward to it everyday, can’t say the same about other meals. Don’t eat it every day for health reasons, but I totally would if there was a healthy version!
I often cheat with thinly sliced, well cooked chorizo and eggs. It’s not healthy but it’s quick, goes great in a wrap
Oh yes, a full fry up. Discovered a cafe in what used to be a miner’s welfare in Clay Cross. £4.95, I have to work up to it, not work up to it, but starve myself is perhaps the best description. Lovely place.
Can't believe the proportion of folk who have coffee for breakfast. What has become of the traditional British cuppa?
Breakfast for me is either porridge made with water with some golden syrup and sometimes raisins, sunflower and pumpkin seeds, or granola.
Frequently have 2 boiled eggs which are my favourite way to eat eggs followed by a couple of slices of toast with marmalade, jam or peanut butter.
Occasionally have an omelette (particularly if it's brunch) or scrambled or poached eggs on toast. If I'm in a rush will just have a couple of slices of toast and marmalade, and once every few months will cook a full English.
All the above will be washed down with a pot of tea - can't cope with coffee first thing.
2 lightly toasted hot x buns with a thick layer of smooth peanut butter and mashed banana or sweet jam-strawberry or blackcurrant-in each.
For years it's been a strong coffee and a bowl of cereal (weetabix-alike, shreddies-alike, oats, or a mix often with some mixed dried fruit) within minutes of getting up.
But recently it's been reduced to just the coffee, as a trial to see if I eat a bit less overall through the day.
On work days (starting 0630) I have my first break at ~0930 and buy/consume a meal deal (sandwich, flapjack, for goodness shake). Back home by 1500 and I'd be hungry again so I'll snack (often cold hot cross buns or choc raisins), then dinner at ~1900. Cereal if hungry before bedtime just before 2100 instead of the old snacks.
On days off like the next five days, I'll try to hold out eating anything until ~1000, then either have cereal; a banana; a single hot cross bun etc. to keep me going until after lunchtime Zwift sprint race (today https://zwiftpower.com/events.php?zid=2942379 Sea To Tree at 1200 and then https://zwiftpower.com/events.php?zid=2942381 1 lap Hilly route reverse at 1215).
Generally, I do seem to be losing some weight, went from 84Kg to 81Kg since early March... Been snacking more, slipping into old bad habits since weekend, so I've put on ~0.5Kg

same here, so tend to have my 'breakfast' for dinner (lunch). 2 oatibix mixed with an unflavoured protein shake rather than just milk, which makes it really creamy. handful of raisins in there too and maybe a sprinkling of chia seeds from time to time.
I alternate so also:
Breakfast #1, Peanut butter & marmite on toast
Breakfast #2, Poached eggs on toast, with marmite on the toast
Both washed down with fresh coffee.

This is me too. I used the 800 diet to shift some much needed weight 3 years ago and got into the habit then of also doing restricted time eating - 8 hours between first and last calories. I've got into more of an equilibrium since then but the habit of not intaking any calories most days until 1130 or later stuck. Black coffee only for me for breakfast. I can ride to work (27 miles) and then do a morning's work without issue like this. I only break this habit if I've got a mega day (a big mountain day or a long bike ride planned) or for social reasons on a birthday/xmas etc when I'll have a light breakfast. But it is the days when I do have a light breakfast that I feel most hungry before lunch. Weird.
Tea,tea and more tea, then porridge with dried fruit and a black coffee chaser..<< weekdays
Baps with deconstructed sausages, scrambled eggs and mushrooms,
or toast with peanut butter and jam.. << weekends
Toast with real butter. Or being a displaced Stokie Cheesey Oatcakes. That's if I can be bothered to make any oatcakes to start with.
Am I alone in thinking "get those f------g cats off the worktop, you filthy b@$t@rd".
Sorry fella, but that's grim.

Kinda similar, I don't have breakfast until about two hours after I get up (so at 8:30 after waking up at 6:30), and find that I'm then not hungry until lunchtime. Maybe it's because I'm two hours nearer lunch, but I think it's something to do with blood sugar/insulin response.
Today - toast with proper butter, marmite with marmalade on top. Sort of sweet and sour.
Just succumbed to a Costa Breakfast Wrap - like a dirty McDonald's but twice the price.
Most days – porridge – rice flakes, oats, coconut milk, various additions.
Now and again – toast, butter, jam.
At Christmas – hot mince pie and cream.
deconstructed sausages
😆
I'm home alone today, so could make a fry up without having to cater for the whole family 🙂
Eggs, sausages and beans. With some sriracha chilli sauce, and an aeropressed black coffee. Heaven
Two toasted sourdough slices dressed with a bed of spinach and a couple of poached eggs, still runny, on top. Chilli flakes and black pepper to season. That's when I have time.
Otherwise two Weetabix and skimmed milk.
Or Porridge. The real stuff. Not that ReadyBrek shite.
4 poached eggs on 4 buttered toast with black pepper and Hendo's or 2 wheat biscuits with homemade museli and mixed seeds/nuts and semi skimmed followed by 2/3 rounds of toast depending how hungry I am. Sometimes I'll split the cereal/toast if I'm running or cycling and have the toast weh I get back in.
For every egg poached, there's an egg that would have been better fried 🙂
1) Pinhead oats (lower GI than rolled oats), peanut butter, grated apple and cinnamon.
2) Salmon and scrambled eggs if i dont want/need the carbs.
Both breakfasts ensure the hunger cravings are kept at bay!
Give it a whirl. Sometimes I use chicken or umami stock instead of milk.
And whilst you make it, you can stare into the Milky abyss and see your fate!
Two toasted sourdough slices dressed with a bed of spinach and a couple of poached eggs
Green things have no right to be anywhere near a breakfast! 😉
Ideally, bannana, yoghurt, dates, milk, vanilla and honey smoothie
🤮
Some very pretentious breakfasting going on here
bikerevivesheffield - are you new here? :O)
I rarely have breakfast but last week somebody gave me 6 duck eggs, the size of chicken eggs.
I fried 2, together in a small pan, in butter and folded them into a couple of buttered slices of the Co-op's crusty round cob with a dollop of tomato ketchup.
I've had this every day since. If the bread isn't fresh, I just semi-toast it. No duck eggs? Well chicken eggs taste the same.
Brilliant - with either a double espresso or a big glass of well-worcestered tomato juice.
Workday is usually greek yogurt with chopped figs and honey.
The weekend is usually eggs on toast.
Todays brekkie (at 3pm - working nights)
Dirty dog breakfast cob with Heck sausages (chicken), was delicious!!

And, no - my hands aren't filthy in the last pic....
12 sausages for breakfast? Impressive....
those heck sausages are actually pretty good, my middle daughter prefers them. Anyway, awesome looking breakfast, it's nearly tea time here, my mouth is watering!
I love breakfast!! Bacon sarnie (obvs), full English, if work is paying and you're in a hotel, homemade granola, pastries when I was in Denmark, current fave is almond croissant from Northern Rye in the Toon, oldest fave was Shreddies, cos we were only allowed them on speciul occasions.
And lots of coffee.
Is it morning yet?
