What do you guys generally eat for breakfast that keeps you filled? at the moment I'm having 2 slices wholemeal toast with 2 slices cheese, not only am I thoroughly fed up of this but I'm starting to feel hungry like 2 hours after :( x
 
Bacon sarnie
Omelette
Egg, bacon and mushrooms
Beans on toast
Croissants (the Tesco ones are roughly 20g carb each and don't spike me)
Ham and cheese or cheese and tomato toastie

Don't fancy switching the cooker on at 6:55 am haha, its kind of a toastie I have just the lazy way as into a toaster bag and into the toaster! Lol x
 
If you've got a microwave you can do beans in there while toasting the bread 🙂
 
If you have beans then you just count the carbs as sugars bit as the beans take a long time to digest, according to my dietician, probably why they keep you feeling full for longer.

I'm seeing the dietician on Tuesday so hoping to run through some things with her then 🙂 x
 
Right while I'm here if you were to have an omelette for tea what would you serve with it? Serious question btw 🙂 x
 
Depends how you do them, practice makes perfect 🙂
Nope tried them once made by someone else put me off trying them again I'll stick to making my scramble the traditional way haha x

Salad. Sweet potato chips. Baked beans. (not all together)
 
Boring Oatmeal with skimmed milk and blueberries. I am turning purple. When I get back home it's going to be smoked salmon and poached eggs

Have to say, mine are perfect but I have had a lot of years to perfect them.

That sounds absolutely fantastic to me ! Minus the blueberries I'd probably have raspberries, blackberries or some pear but I lack the confidence to try/change things :( x

Why don't you try a few blueberries with the raspberries, they are lovely together IMHO.

As I say I lack confidence regarding my insulin and that :( x
 
I like boiled eggs with 1 slice of wholemeal toast cut into ‘soldiers’ or

Scrambled egg done to perfection in the micro (need to under-do it slightly) to keep it fluffy. I sometimes do it with grated cheese melted in or

Slice of toast with some nice ham and a poached egg on top

Favourite is the weekend bacon and egg buttie though :D

I’m always starving on a morning so yoghurt and berries etc. wouldn’t touch the sides for me
