Hi and thank you so much for replying quickly, and for the welcome. I've noted all that down, phew...as during the day the levels come down to within the guidance, it's just that breakfast one. Thanks again.Eggs, bacon anything that as as few carbs as possible..
Cold meats, cheese, slices of butter.
or what I have for breakfast every day... coffee with double cream and nothing solid until after noon.
Carby foods like porridge and toast are a big no-no for most T2's who have an intolerance to dietary carbohydrate.
Hi and welcome by the way.
Pleasure.. I found some intermittent fasting along with ketogenic eating was very helpful in reducing blood glucose levels pretty quickly. It also led to effortless weight loss. Good luck!Hi and thank you so much for replying quickly, and for the welcome.

That is a great idea...thank youYou could make up a frittata with eggs, peppers, onions, mushrooms, tomatoes then portion it up for several breakfasts. It’ll last about 5 days in the fridge & takes minutes in the microwave to reheat.
I’ve had eggs in one form or another for breakfast everyday since diagnosis & it’s not gotten boring yet. I don’t need to low carb but choose to for breakfast & lunch.
Full fat, plain greek yogurt & maybe a small handful of berries, cold meat & cheese, last nights leftovers ..... What ever (low(er) carb food you fancy, it's a western thing to have specific "breakfast" food[

The amount which fills you up is a portionhow much of the yoghurt would be one portion, just have seen large tubs of it so would need to measure it out, thank you for replying.
That, but if looking for more of a portion size, Ifind 100g of yoghurt and then strawberries (100 - 150g) and crushed nuts (I buy the Linwoods types and have about 10g) works well as both snack or breakfast. But you can of course cater the actual levels to what works for youThe amount which fills you up is a portion
Enough so you're not hungry, you'll be surprised just how little that is, the fat in the yoghurt fills you up and you stay full (a couple of tablespoons is enough for me)how much of the yoghurt would be one portion, just have seen large tubs of it so would need to measure it out, thank you for replying.
Thank you...all of you are so helpful"Fake " ie low carb porridge ideas
1. Night before put a tablespoon of milled chia seeds or linseed in a bowl with either full fat greek yoghurt or almond milk or soya milk. Add cinnamon or nutmeg, or a few berries of choice. It will thicken and be ready to eat cold in the morning. Can make several portions several days ahead
2. Stir a tablespoon or 2 of milled seeds into almond, soya or coconut milk of your choice in a saucepan. Heat until thick stirring. Add cinnamon, nutmeg or grated dark chocolate or coffe or cocoa powder
