I'm paid by the hour, so although I certainly *could* eat breakfast at home or take a break, I usually eat breakfast at my desk so I can make the time spent sorting emails go a little faster.

This morning I brought oatmeal with bananas and peanut butter in a tupperware container and a thermos of coffee (the coffee options nearby are... sub par).

I eat breakfast everyday at my desk (my new year's resolution!). I stock up our office fridge with fresh fruit and cottage cheese.

I also have a box of Cream of Wheat that I eat occasionally. It is wonderful to have breakfast, takes an edge off the morning, makes everything a bit more peaceful.

I like to bring a container of vanilla yogurt and then I add bananas to it. Its so good.

I wish I wouldn't eat breakfast at my desk. I love making eggs at home before going to work, but it's just an issue of time.

Breakfast is usually a granola bar (Cascadain Farms, yum!) or oatmeal ~8am, and yogurt or cottage cheese/fruit ~10am.

I think I'm going to make some muffins tonight, though, just to spice it up a little.

If I'm biking to work, I'll start with some OJ at home, then pickup a ww bagel w/ cream cheese from the Tim Hortons at work. The caf is usually crazy expensive anyway. The totalitarian regime of office janitorial and maintenance staff like to confiscate toasters as "non-approved" electrical equipment, which just leaves cold food or microwavable food. "Cold" is a bit of a misnomer because the same totalitarian regime refuses to set the fridge temp low enough to keep anything like milk good for very long, and with the door getting opened a good 100 times a day, it doesn't retain much heat anyway. However, pending the ability to keep milk fresh, breakfast cereal is definitely the way to go. Either that, or snackables like almonds which can actually keep you running a surprisingly long time on very little $$$.

Desk.

I work at different sites. At one site they have organized a bagel club. Members chip in monthly and several days a week fresh bagels and customary bagel-schmears appear near the coffee pot. Don't know if I could stand it all year, but when I visit this site for a while I always join.

Otherwise fill up my pockets at the hotel comp breakfast bar.

I eat at my desk. I keep cereal bars and fruit at my desk for breakfast and snacking. Has anyone seen the Cariboo Bars? I can't find them anymore.

My office has a cafeteria which is subsidized by the company so I have a (good)bagel and cream cheese every morning for 70 cents!! If I ate breakfast at home I would be hungry before lunch.

I eat at my desk, mostly because I'm terrible at getting up in the mornings and want to sleep until the last possible second. I've got fridge/freezer, microwave and a toaster oven, so I can pretty much have what I want.

For the past year I've been eating Bob's Red Mill Thick Cut Organic Rolled Oats every morning for breakfast at work. I don't like sweet foods in the morning, so I just add a sprinkle of sea salt. I add hot water and then zap it in the microwave for 3 minutes. The result is warm, filling, and savory. Yum.

i eat breakfast at my desk 5 days a week...here are some items i make:

- pita bread, laughing cow cheese wedges and sliced tomato sandwich w/cup of coffee
- scrambled egg and egg white (made in the microwave) with any leftover veggies from previous night's dinner, toast and fruit
- whole grain crackers w/LF cottage cheese and fruit
- coffee and a granola bar (when i'm in a rush)
- hummus on multigrain toast with cucumbers
- ham(or turkey) and cheese w/lettuce on multigrain toast
- hard boiled egg w/multigrain toast
- fruit salad w/lf cottage cheese
- low fat plain yogurt (add in my own honey) mixed with trail mix

I eat yogurt at my desk daily since I can't stomach food first thing in the morning. There's also a stash of oatmeal and almond milk for winter mornings.

I eat oatmeal at my desk most mornings, since I leave the house too early (6:45) to eat there.

I'm an early bird, coming in around 7am usually. Today, I brought poached eggs and made some toast to eat with them. Usually, when I go to the market, I pick up some stuff to put in one of our two huge fridges, to include fruit, yogurt, salad, etc., and use one desk drawer for dry and shelf-safe ingredients. I tend to pick at something every couple of hours, so it's useful to have a variety.

Desk. I don't feel hungry until then because my commute is long.

It's Fage and granola (from the coffee place down the street) most mornings, and an apple on the side for good measure. On days when I cave, I stop by a patisserie on the way in and get one of their magical almond croissants or sticky rolls.

I wish I had time to eat breakfast at home but I just can't get myself into gear early enough! My favorite office breakfast is a sliced boiled egg on a toasted english muffin and a cup of tomato juice. Mmm

I have cereal at home every morning but then i usually have "second breakfast" at my desk around 10am. This usually consists of toast or english muffin with peanut butter brought from home and toasted in the break room.

I eat at my desk because even when I eat my breakfast at home, I feel hungry when I start to work. I usually eat a sandwich I make at home with whole wheat bread and cheese or grab a Turkish bagel "simit" on my way.

I typically do protein bars to keep me full. Often times my daily schedule is really hectic with meetings so I sometimes don't get a lunch until late in the day. I like making my own protein bars, but with how busy things have been lately, I've been grabbing the south beach bars. Good, but definitely NOT CHEAP (or the best for you...)

I make several days worth of the oatmeal/pumpkin/banana at home and eat at my desk when I get to work. I also have at least 4 boxes of cereal on hand at work too. I'm fortunate in that my company provides little cartons of milk.

MrsMollyK, I'm so glad I'm not the only one who does second breakfast!

If I'm on top of it, I have eggs and cheese around 6:15 before I go to the gym and then yogurt and fruit around 9 once I've gotten into the office and dealt with the morning meetings. When I'm not on top of it, Odwalla bars make for great OMG LATE! breakfasts.

My recent problem is that I'm sick and tired of yogurt so now I'm going to have to figure out a better second breakfast. If they do give us an oven (please, oh please oh please) I could easily do mini fritattas. Yum.

At home. My commute is about an hour and I don't think between what time I get up and then get into the office I could survive without eating.

We keep breakfast pretty simple in our house. There is always a container of cut up fruit or grapes in the fridge. I eat those while toasting a whole wheat english muffin. The english muffin either gets a light coating of butter spread or peanut butter.

If I have one of those mornings when I have to go in early, I'll eat the fruit before I leave and then continue breakfast when I get there.

I usually bring two eggs with a piece of whole grain toast and coffee in a thermo to work and eat at my desk.
simple and filling

Oh I eat breakfast at my desk every morning. I whip up some instant oatmeal at the office, throw in some banana and apple and sit and catch up on my AT! :)

I usually try to eat something at home before I come in, but I'm a 'grazer'...I do best eating small amounts of food all day long. I always bring my lunch and usually have lots of snacks. I have a microwave and fridge, but no toaster, otherwise I'd bring in my yummy homemade bagels!

I eat lots of yogurt, which is perfect for desk work.

I always start my day properly by getting up an hour before I have to leave and taking my time for breakfast. I like it that way, wake up properly in calm and quiet and not have to hurry. I'm a morning person anyway so I don't mind getting up at six. I also wouldn't feel comfortable eating at my desk, nobody else does it and when I'm working, I'm working - can you really work and eat at the same time? I mean really taste your food AND really concentrate on whatever else you're doing?

Great post! I usually have cereal (or oatmeal if time permits) at home but this has given me lots of good ideas for lunches/snacks to pack.

I'm lucky if I can make coffee before leaving in the morning.
Once I'm at work, I have a bottle of GT's Synergy and coffee. Sometimes half a Luna bar or some raw almonds.
The kombucha is surprisingly filling.

I have an hour-long commute, so I usually eat something -- a muffin, a scone, or a couple of leftover pancakes warmed up -- in the car around 7 am, and then at 10:30 or 11 am I have yogurt and granola at my desk. That lets me eat lunch later in the day so I don't starve before I get home!

You can easily scramble and egg in a mug using the microwave at work. Toast an english muffin, add a slice of cheese and your scrambled egg and it's a breakfast to be envied by the poptart crowd. (You can also nuke veggie sausage to add to breakfast sandwich too!)

I always eat breakfast at work. Its the easiest thing for me given Im not an early riser. I have multigrain oatmeal and green tea. For hot water, I keep an electric kettle and a gallon of water in my office.

I am fortunate enough to work at a company that keeps a fully stocked kitchen, so there are a bunch of good options.

Unfortunately I've never been much of a breakfast eater, but sometimes I'll smell someone else's and get on the train.

My favorites~
~a cut up apple with pb
~poached egg on english muffin with a slice of ham
~yogurt, fruit and granola
~a protein bar. The CLIF pb builders bars are awesome.

I am in at the ungodly time of 5:30am and don't want anything more than coffee at that early of an hour. So, yes, I always eat breakfast at my desk about 2 hours later: oatmeal during the cold, winter months and greek yogurt w/fruit during the warmer spring and summer months.

I wish I made time in the morning for breakfast at home...but typically it is breakfast at my desk. Cereal (dry - not a fan of soggy cereal) and coffee made at the office...or sometimes, yogurt and granola...and on days that I've forgotten to get anything together...it's a bagel from the shop around the corner. And I'm always hungry for lunch. I think it's a worthwhile goal to get up with enough time to actually eat breakfast at home and then leave for work. I'm not a morning person...I'll have to work on this.

I can't get going without breakfast, so I always eat it at home -- usually eggs. And a coffee the size of my head.

I work from home, but also eat breakfast at my desk. It's sort of how I discipline myself to get going in the morning. By 10am I'm dressed and at my desk with my coffee and a piece of peanut butter toast, though lately it's been instant oatmeal. I eat leisurely while I start answering work e-mails... and of course check my daily blogs.

I eat at my desk. Otherwise I get to work 40 minutes or so later (even later than that if I cook something nice), and get stuck in traffic both on the way there and on the way home. I've been eating my cereal dry since I was 3 or 4, so stocking up on a box or two and some microwaveable vegetarian sausage keeps me set for a week or two at a time.

Yogurt and oatmeal in the morning make me gag, I need solid food in the morning!
Banana and a bagel or a big hunk of whole wheat bread slathered with butter and honey do it for me. I'm really bad about keeping crumbs out of my keyboard though...

I'm so glad other people eat at work -- I've always felt kind of guilty about it (although most of my coworkers do it too). I like the idea of eating at home, but if I eat that early, I"ll be ready for lunch at 11am.

The food itself is much like others too -- yogurt, fruit, hard boiled eggs, oatmeal. We have a kitchen with a microwave and fridge but no toaster. If I want a bagel, I'd rather get it fresh, so I'll buy it on the way in and have the deli toast it. We also have a hot water spigot, which is nice for oatmeal.

I prefer to eat at work because I am not really ready to eat until I've been awake a couple of hours.

I know my boss frowns upon it though. She made a comment under her breath about our temporary workers eating breakfast at her desk and that employees should eat breakfast "on their own time". I guess I understand if you are paying someone hourly, but it seems a little strict. I suppose she would prefer them to use the restroom only on their allotted breaks, too. As others have mentioned, I am perfectly capable of sorting through emails while I have eat a light and quick breakfast at my desk.

Every morning, the same thing...an egg scrambled with veggies on a toasted English muffin with herbed yogurt cheese, at my desk. I think I need some new options though. I love it but I know I'll get sick of it eventually.

Aldesko as we call it. The only way to eat breakfast!

Al desko. I love that!

I eat at my desk. I get in to the office way before anyone else and it's very peaceful. I just keep a big can of quick cook oats and some brown sugar at my desk and heat some up in a mug. Just add about twice as much water as oats...it's an imperfect science, but turns out great every time. I either bring tea from home or make it in the office.

if i ever do eat breakfast during the week (and i don't, always, but i'm trying to do it more!) i make steel cut oats at home, put them in a mug, and eat them at my desk at work. it's great because i can pretty much stretch out eating them over an hour or two, just taking a bite or two here and there. often, this means i end up taking a later lunch and then my afternoon flies by! it's great.

Oatmeal with peanut butter. At home. Every day.

I save a ton of money not buying a $3 NYC bagel with cream cheese on it.

Never enough time at home in the mornings... I usually pack a breakfast and lunch and afternoon snack to eat at work!

I wake up with a growling stomach no matter what time it is, so after the dog eats and does his business, breakfast is next on the agenda for me. I usually have a midmorning snack at my desk of granola and yogurt.

Somehow I developed the talent for not being able to work/eat at the same time. My brain starts to sulk and my mood will nose dive. I think its from working from years of school'n... meal times were the one time I never felt guilty procrastinating ("I mean if I didn't eat I'd die...").

So I guess its home for me. Which is weird, b/c the rest of my morning routine focuses on getting up as late as possible.
