This looks pretty good, if you could add a protein source to your oatmeal, a thing I do ia add a scoop of vanilla protein powder to my oatmea, it gives it a better flavor and a good dose of protein
The eggs are good but here is something that makes them better, if you eat 3 egg whites and one yolk you still get the nutrients they provide, up the protein, reduce the cals all in one shot.
Yogurt is good if it doesn't contain processed sugar and is no or low fat, the fat in yogurt is saturated fat so it should be avoided somewhat. A good choice is no fat greek yogurt but it is a little bland in taste so again you can add a scoop of protein powder to it, it tastes much better and you get the added protein. I often eat greek yogurt, a scoop of protein powder and some blueberries or strawberries mixed in, if I am using it as a meal you can add a small amount of healthy cereal, I use a little bit of fibre one, it gives it a little crunch which makes it more like real food lol
