Hi all you helpful people. What can I eat for breakfast now I have read on this site porridge is not so good after all? I don't want to be hungry mid-morning.
Any ideas would be fantastic. I am on Lantus and Humalog and experienced for some 28 years so sort of know what I am doing.

I vary my breakfasts. I could have a slice or two of deli meat, a slice of Fergus bread with Marmite and LOADS of butter or a couple of scrambled eggs with cream. (done in the microwave). Or on mornings when I'm late for the gym, I might just grab a chunk of cheese.

Try "savoury slices."

These are grab-n-go & you can take a slice for mid-morning.

My version is usually fish with salad and a couple of oatcakes. High protein moderate fat low carb is the combination that works best and longest for me at breakfast. When I get bored with the fish there's bacon, chicken or even lamb chops

I have just rediscovered they joys of boiled eggs - sometimes on their own, sometimes with rye bread soldiers (or sailors as they are in our house!). I am always on a tight schedule in the mornings & even I have time for these!

I thought I'd give bacon & tomatoes a go tomorrow morning...trouble is I go straight out afterwards so won't get a chance to test my BS and let you know what happens!

Bacon and toms should do too much to your readings. I prefer the cherry toms.

My breakfast is usually yoghurt and berries (or a small handful of dried fruit if I can't get fresh)
