Diet breakfast foods

Okay everyone, I need your help, advice and ideas.

I am really doing well on my diet. But...

I need help with breakfast.
I need ideas for store-bought ready-to-eat items, items I can make at home, and easy to carry with me items. So any ideas you have will help.

Right now my options are oatmeal when I'm at home, and a Luna Bar/Power Bar/something like that for the mornings I have school.

My tummy just doesn't want food when I first get up, but if I don't have something within a couple hours then my tummy starts getting crabby and the diet is easier blown at lunch.

I have a freezer stocked with Lean Cuisines right now, which have pretty much saved the diet as they give me something quick and easy that I don't have to give any thought to when I don't have a dinner or lunch planned. So there's no reason to blow the diet. But mornings are difficult. I like oatmeal, but not every single day for days on end.

I see all kinds of diet dinners and lunches in the store, but nothing for breakfast. Am I blind? Are they there and I just don't see them?

So tell me, please. What are good low calorie or diet brand foods for breakfast?
Keeping in mind that I am up early and off to school by 7am.

That frappucchino wasn't enough I guess

I'm hungry. I just realized. Yeah, it's 10:43pm right now. But I gotta find something. Be right back.

Go read a book why don't you?

Mmmmm... Vanilla-Marshmallow-Chocolate....

I just saw something called a "Valomilk" on the cooking channel, and the TV show says they are pretty famous and common in the mid-west. I have never heard of this Valomilk, and have never seen one before.

But I want one now.

I was just wondering if any of you have ever heard of this candy? Or actually had one? Does it truly "run down your chin"? Is it really vanilla-y? Mmmmmm, someone send me one, please.

By the way, my diet was supposed to start today

I am in New Hire Orientation today, yes, even though I've been here for two months now, but anyway, you know what that HAS to mean if you're working at this company - Yes, Catered Lunch.

I am having a very good turkey and salami and swiss sandwich on wheat with honey mustard, and lots of pasta salad, and bottled water, and I am NOT having any of the luscious chocolate desserts they have out on the table.

I just wanted to tell ya'll that.

So I ate a donut. And a brownie. And some ice cream...

Again, Thank You God for the cool weather you've sent us today, even the rain you sent this morning. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You.

Next subject: Itsy reminded me the other day of FitDay.com which is a really great site in tracking your diet/exercise program and has always helped me in the past. So I started it a couple days ago and it's already helping me.

For instance, Day 1 I consumed over 2500 calories. I've told you how well they feed us here at my job, right? There you go. And when you don't keep track, they really add up. And I know from the non-fit of my clothes that I've gained much weight just in the six weeks I've worked here.

So the next day, more aware of what I put in my mouth, I only consumed about 1700. That's quite a difference. Even with four pieces of pizza for dinner, I still cut out 700 calories.

Go me! I'll be back in shape for JournalCon now!
