The Incredible tipped me off...
The Incredible tipped me off...
"The incredible, edible egg."
I find this VERY interesting. For years, my husband and I ate breakfast out, even after he was diagnosed with diabetes II. He always ate omelets. He began to notice that his blood sugar was lower after those breakfasts even though he ate potatoes as well. We’ve wondered for years if eggs weren’t significant in lowering blood sugar.
Eggs make me sick to the stomach.
I like them flavor wise.
But they (and certain other foods) turn on the bile maker to high and all the while stick sore in my stomach untill the yellow bile overloads to push them through painfully fast or worse they come back up.
With that lovely vision I wonder if a better point would be that a high protein food for breakfest would help curb the appitite for the day.
For some reason a very Large Virgin Mary (homemade ingrediants) with a celery stalk brings my morning fasting BG down to 118 and suppresses my appitite very well.
To each his own body need IMO.
Egg,potato and chorizo burrito from Oscars drive through.
That I guarentee will put you to sleepy land and no worries about eating lunch you’ll be asleepin
Also in 1995 a study of obese women and satiety from eggs at breakfast resulted in the same assessment
I am continually amazed at how often science confirms what Mama always told us: eat a good, hearty breakfast, preferably of eggs, bacon and OJ.
LOL Clue!
I looked at them once but the price turned me off rather spend $$ on something else tasty in the market.
Yuk.
I would rather eat a half a PB/Jelly sandwhich for breakfest.
Yum.
I like anchovies myself.
I know, right? It wasn’t just one time.. the dog would always refuse them! So I stopped eating them myself. Real eggs are the single most nutritious food out there.. I love them.
This is simply Atkins, and it works. If I add Carbs to breakfast I am hungry the rest of the day. I am 40 pounds lighter now than I was 6 years ago, and Atkins is the only explanation. Because I consume tons of calories, blood sugar is fair, never had a HbA1c above 5.
<fried Balogna,
Man, that takes me back! My mother would also slice up hot dogs and put them in the scrambled eggs. Yum.
My tastes have matured since then, but yeah, I remember fried balogna, fried spam, and fried scrapple for breakfast (not at the same time).
Cant believe the price of scrapple now.
Like I said in the rest of the post, eggs are not filling for me, not in the short term and even less so in the long term. I don’t have to add carbs but there needs to be something much more than eggs. I’m 75 pounds lighter than I was 6 years ago and it’s all eating less/ smarter and getting more exercise.
Eating any kind of protein at breakfast keeps me going until almost dinner time.
Trust, but verify. I thought about restricting dietary protein when someone unfortunately progresses to chronic renal failure, but I forgot to link it.
So, better late than never. Take care of yourselves, especially if your kidneys have become affected. Diabetes can be complicated.
LOL! Funny yoke!
The wife and I worked on a very remote cattle ranch in Nevada for a couple of years and the owners had layers. I had never been around chukes before and got a kick out them. They are pretty cool.
LOL! A coffee and sour cream donut from 7-11 keeps me feeling “full” until mid-afternoon.
