[QUOTE="JoKalsbeek, post: 2144060, member: 401801"] It's the carbs in the morning. Most of us can't handle them as it is, but in the morning it's worse... There's dawn phenomenon going on, increased insulin resistance, add carbs to that and poof, your bloodsugars soar. Full fat greek yoghurt is a much better option (add a couple of berries if you want, or some coconut shavings, a hand full of nuts), and if that doesn't sustain you, try something with eggs. I know if I have an omelet with a chunk of salmon it'll keep me full until dinner (or beyond even), but you could go for the more traditional bacon and cheese with your scrambled eggs. No carbs there that would spike you, and it'll keep you going for a good long while. You might want to read Dr. Jason Fung's The Diabetes Code... Could help you avoid insulin altogether.
