I have Greek yoghurt with berries and a tablespoon of either flax seed or granola when I'm working and poached or scrambled eggs on toast when at home.

I'm another yoghurt and a few berries man. Quick and easy. Make sure its the full fat greek yoghurt unless you want it to taste horrid and feel hungry within ten minutes though.

Are you a bread eater @spaxman ?

If so, Lidl sells a high protein roll that is very low carb (about 8g carbs per roll). Sliced in half and toasted with butter they are delicious. You could have one of those with a poached egg.

Porridge is difficult especially if made with milk. When you get a meter you can test it out.

For me breakfast is a handfull of berries with plain yoghurt and home-made seed granola. About 15gm carbs. I gave up home made, no added sugar, but oats based, muesli when I found out it spiked me to about 11. If I add a spoonful of creme fraiche to the yoghurt it helps to keep my fat intake up for the day.

Hello Julie I'm a newbie type 2 can we eat bacon and sausages?

Yes, but make sure the sausages are 97% meat, or at least low carb ones. The ones I eat are Black Farmers and are 1g carb per sausage. Supermarkets have their own brands too. Always check the nutrition label for the total carb content.
