We welcome questions! We'll never get sick of you - promise!!
I'll try to make some suggestions, but being that I'm American, they might not be the best of suggestions. I'm sure someone will come along who can help a bit better.
Egg whites and bread are fine for breakfast.  Just make sure you're getting a good-quality white bread that doesn't contain dairy products. Can you get soy yogurt over there? You might have to look in a health-food or natural-foods store to find it, but that would definitely be a safe way to curb the yogurt craving!
I'll tell you what I always keep on hand, and try to stick with what I think you'd still be able to get over there:
- Chicken breasts, skinless/boneless and bone-in
- Turkey, whole breasts, split breasts, and ground
- Pasta, and lots of it
- Potatoes
- Sweet potatoes
- Carrots
- Frozen peas
- Canned fruit, mostly peaches and pears in juice or light syrup
- Cereal, mostly for snacking (I'm not a cereal-for-breakfast person either)
- Bread products: Italian bread, sandwich bread, bagels
- Vegetarian "meats" - veggie burgers, soy breakfast sausage - read the ingredients before buying!
- Bouillion and chicken broth
Out of all that, I can honestly say that I live on potatoes. I make a potato soup (I posted the recipe over on the recipe board) that I end up eating for lunch all week. I eat oven fries, "skinny" mashed potatoes (made with broth instead of butter & cream), baked potatoes, potato pancakes - you name it! - every single day.
If there's a recipe you want to try, post to it and someone might be able to help you find substitutions. In some cases, you have the ingredients over there, but we just call it something different over here. I know there's a few UK people on here, and I know they cook and bake.  Someone will be able to help!
Good luck - and like I said, I'm sure someone will come along who can help a little better than I can.
