I use EAS 100% Whey Protein w\5 fruits each morning for breakfast. I get all my fruits done early and have lowered my cholestrol as well.

I like to have three egg whites with yellow and red bell peppers chopped up into it, two ounces of turkey, and a tablespoon of white corn salsa. On the side, I like to have a mixed cup of strawberries and blueberries. I also eat two pieces of healthy life - high fiber bread when I'm really hungry; this has great staying power and keeps me going all morning!

I make an omelet with one egg and one egg white, a little feta, tomato, red pepper and mushroom....packed with protein and veggies~It's a great way to start the day.

Good sources of protein with no or low fat:

fat-free cottage cheese or Greek yogurt
egg beaters or egg whites
chicken or turkey breast
fish

If you want to get a quick, easy veggie fix, try low-sodium V-8 or tomato juice. But raw veggies are better for you than juice. (They have more fiber and less sodium.)

protein

I start out with at least 20grams of protein in the morning about a half hour after wakeing up. Throughout the day I eat lots of protein in fish, chicken, and nectar sweets protein drink along with my vegetables. I try to get at least 100grams of protein a day, this keeps me much more satisfied, plus increases my energy. I'me not as hungry either when I have extra protein. 334

MORE INFORMATION:
I've also been without anykind of wheat product for over a month now, I really helps to control hunger because wheat actually spikes your blood sugar. I've noticed since I've gone off wheat my blood pressure has gotten back to normal. 100 Yea! I think this is something I can live with.
