  • Breakfast

    I know you are supposed to eat breakfast and I always do but I find it quite a challenge. I am just not at all hungry in the morning. (nice problem to have though!) What do you all eat for breakfast?

    Re: Breakfast

    There are times when I'm not very hungry in the morning, too. But I eat something--even if it's a half a pork chop or a chicken wing leftover from last night's dinner. That's because there are 2 ways to 'rev up' your metabolism: exercise and eating.

      Re: Breakfast

      I love hardboiled eggs. I usually make a few and keep them in the fridge. A few slices of bacon, or a slice of ham.

      Incorporate some of your veggies in by making an omlette. Last weekend I made an omlette with mushrooms, ham, bell pepper, and made a little homeade salso to go on top (a lil tomato, onion and jalopeno)

      I found a really yummy recipe for breakfast muffins on here:

      I use a muffin pan, crumble a little brkfst sausage, or ham, or bacon on the bottom, crack an egg on top and grate a little cheese on top of that.
      They form into yummy muffins. Make some the nite before, and youve got a quick on the go brkfst the next day.

          If I am not very hungry, which happens often in the morning, I have a handful of nuts like almonds or pecans. Walnuts are probably less carby than pecans. Either that or I nuke a few pieces of low sodium bacon and eat those. It's important to eat early to get the motor running.

            Hey avwriter, I just read another post that this is your 3rd day... just a reminder that nuts aren't legal on induction.

            A quickie for me is some pepperoni slices with cream cheese, a hot dog, cream cheese with cocoa powder and splenda... I don't like eggs. Apparently I *do* like cream cheese though.

              Thanks for the reminder. I brought a bag of the things to work, but haven't had any yet. They'll stay on the shelf.

                Re: Breakfast

                I have 2 eggs and 2 strips of bacon nearly every morning. I don't get bored with it very often. If I feel like having something different then I'll have some yogurt (not for induction if thats where you are) or some leftovers from dinner.

                    I'm glad you guys posted that. I do eat a few strips of bacon a lot of mornings. Glad to know you can have it often. If is just so hard to break the mind set of bacon is bad for you! I have lost a ton of weight and I still struggle with the old way of thinking about food!

                      Lately I have been eating a slice of crustless quiche and a few cherry tomatoes for breakfast. Before that I had ham/gouda cheese rollups with my tomatoes for several weeks. Before that I had a couple of slices of my flax bread spread with butter and marmite.
                      Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?

                            I also have to force myself to eat in the morning. I have 4 or 5 slices of salami. Keeps me sated until lunch.

                              I have been eating 2 eggs with tomatoes everyday since I started Atkins last year. When I started the dairy rung, I began adding all kinds of cheese to my eggs. Mozerrela, pepper jack, queso fresco, and cottage cheese are my favorites.
