What I eat in a day (1) Breakfast

The most important and huge change I did recently is in the portions and quantities. I measure and roughly calculate calories. If I start a 1000-1200 cal/day diet, I am too hungry and feel I starve myself. What works better for me is a ~1400 cal/day.

Breakfast:
I start my day with a coffee; I tried the water/lemon as soon as I jump out of my bed, but it doesn't work for me. I drink black small regular coffee, no milk. Europeans call it an "Americano", although, not sure it is really similar to our long light coffee...I love it.
I prepare almond rolled oat or alternatively a smoothie. Calories vary between 300-400, depending on how much I prepare. 
I drink another similar coffee when I arrive at work, then fill out my water bottle (stainless steel) twice during the day (1.5 L total) with spring water from big containers at work.

 

















Recipes: 
Almond oat: I measure 1/2 cup of organic whole grain rolled oat, add one hand of sliced almonds, cover it with water and let it soak overnight. In the morning, I add some fresh berries, 5/6 of each for a delicious nutritious bowl. Calories: around 300.
Smoothie: it may greatly vary. I prepare Chia seeds the night before by measuring 1/2 cup of water and 2 teaspoons of Chia seed, soaked overnight. In the morning, I put in the blender: a small banana, the chia seeds, I tablespoon of flaxeed, one hand of blueberries, raspberries, or any fresh berry, 1/4 cup of unsweetened soymilk and 1/4 cup of organic fruit juice (berries), or only 1/2 cup of soymilk. I blend for a very thick delicious and very filling smoothie ! Calories: around 400.
