What do you usually eat at breakfast? What would you recommend, any recipe for fast meal before school? I normally eat sandwiches but I feel hungry after 2h in school and I have no energy.
Everything is ok except meals which include roasted food(dont have time).
 
Two eggs, two bacon strips and a piece of 12 grain toast. Keeps my sugars low and my belly full. Sometimes i skip the toast and do a fruit smoothie with 70g of strawberries and 70 raspberries, 13g flax seed and 80g banana, 250ml of water.

I make up a low carb plain yougurt and mix in nuts, seeds & raspberries. Then I eat 150gm of this for breakfast each day while its still warm. otherwise its fried eggs in butter for breakfast - no bread as all bread is too high in carbs and I dont do strenuous exercise any more - too old.
 
Another thing to help you get thru to lunch time would be to add cream to your coffee - the right fat is what makes you feel fuller longer.
 
I'm newly diagnosed and have had trouble changing my diet and staying full.
My nurse in the diabetes clinic said to eat a small amount of carbs at every meal so...

I found two breakfasts that work:
1 piece of wholegrain toast with 2 poached eggs. or
2 egg omelette with mushrooms, onions, and kale (cook in a little water
before adding the eggs).
For lunch I have a chicken salad sandwich with fruit.

Hope this helps.

Make fat balls to eat instead then (ask Google) - you can use various combinations of fats, e.g coconut oil, coconut butter and cream, and one should do the trick.

Eggs, fried in coconut oil, scrambled with butter, poached, any way you can think of. Once you get rid of the bread, you don't miss it!
 
Most mornings I have an omelette. I get variety by changing the veg around and sometimes include sone chilli flakes.
