have you tried any of the muffins or quiche recipes on the recipe sites? You can eat anything you want to for any meal - you don't have to eat eggs.
I prefer them and have had them every morning for 3 months....I just add different veggies to them. Some mornings I have scrambled w/color peppers, or onion or just some cheese. Other mornings I have soft boiled, still other mornings I'll have an omelet. When I don't eat eggs in the morning I feel my day isn't starting the right way -- but that's just me. I know a lot of people who eat salad in the morning but I can't get out of bed and chew lettuce.
Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies? Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!
I feel ya...I got myself pretty sick of eggs for a while there, too. Just eat any other low carb thing...nobody says breakfast has to be eggs! Lately, I've been eating celery and cream cheese for breakfast. My taste for eggs JUST came back this week.
One saturday morning I woke up craving a cheeseburger...so that was my breakfast.

Successfully did Atkins in 1998 using 1992 copy of the book...before it was "hip". Lost 60lbs, exercised daily, felt and looked great. And then I moved in with a junk-food loving man, my mom got sick and passed away, then I suffered a spinal cord injury, and junk-food dude left me...and now I weigh 292lbs. That's 22lbs MORE than I weighed the first time around. It's 10 years later...I know this will work for me again.
another thing i like for breakfast is pumpkin with a little cinnamon and splenda in it. sometimes i even add some cream cheese to make it more like a pudding. i have even added a tablespoon or two to the mock danish to give it a little different flavor.
I also eat a lot of non-breakfast food for breakfast. Taco salad is one of my favorites, using leftover taco meat from the night before. (And Linda's Low Carb taco seasoning mix).
But the thing that I've discovered about keeping eggs from gagging me is to top them with salsa, or serve sauteed or raw veggies with them.
I never got tired of grits and eggs and it's because the grits offset the richness of the eggs. It's the same way with other veggies. But the salsa, especially on top of scrambled eggs, really "cuts" the egginess.
The mock danish really helped me during induction. As did the pumpkin flax muffin.
