Newbie

Hi all,
On my 2nd day of the introduction phase, I've lost 2 pounds already-good start! My starting weight was 183 pounds and I'm at 181 today. My goal is to get to 140 pounds.

If any one could offer advise on quick & easy breakfast ideas, I'd really appreciate it. I missing my daily bowl of cereal! Would any one have any alternatives? Thanks

Re: Newbie

Welcome!

How much time do you have for breakfast?

Can you make scrambled eggs?

You can always make a crustless quiche or a frittata (or an "egg casserole" as I call them).

Check out this forum's recipe section for ideas, and this website is most helpful:

Linda's Low Carb Menus & Recipes - Home

Also ... you don't have to have eggs for breakfast. You can have leftover dinner!

Re: Newbie

smoked salmon and cream cheese roll ups, one minute flax muffin, but Linda's site and our own recipe threads offer a lot of ideas.

Hi,

It depends, I'm really not good at getting up when the alarm goes off! I usually have about 20mins, but I like to take my time eating! I've been eating boiled eggs the last 2 days but its pretty boring! I think I'll try scrambled eggs tomorrow

Thanks for the reply

Re: Newbie

I make muffins out of eggs, sausage, vegetables, etc. then take 1 or 2 out in the morning and warming them in the microwave -- I make a dozen of them at a time so I don't run out.

Check the recipe sites for other great ideas.
