I just want to add, because a lot of people are talking about skipping breakfast. It really is totally up to you.
Just an added explanation of probably why so many do skip breakfast. There is what we call DP, dawn phenomenon, which is a rise of hormones before you wake that causes your liver to dump some glucose into the system. There is also what we call FOTF, foot on the floor, which causes a hormone release soon after you wake and your liver also dumps some glucose. Both of these have a tendency to make you more insulin resistant for a few hours after. Hence more of a reaction to food in the morning and BG levels being more stubborn in the am.
It’s just a little harder to deal with, so a lot of us skip. Plus a longer fasting period which a lot of people like it to help maintain weight. I was happy with skipping because as I said I was never a breakfast person anyways. I have a pump and I automatically give extra insulin to account for FOTF without even eating. And if I do eat, which I have started to do to fuel on a swimming day, my carb insulin ratio is set higher.
My husband eats in the am and doesn’t seem to have any extra reaction to it, but if he did, he would definitively still be eating breakfast.
