That's why we don't like spam in our diets.

Yesterday, I made the switch. No more Wheaties for me. I love them, but that was 57 grams of net carbs every morning with 12 grams of sugars. I would eat a huge bowl for breakfast, equal to 3 servings. And by about 10:30, I'd be hungry. I finished off the last of the boxes in the basement and haven't ordered any new ones.

I'm going to try out different breakfasts. The past two mornings, I've had a hot oat bran cereal very much like steel cut oatmeal, except slightly lower in carbs and slightly higher in fiber. In addition, I also had a hard boiled egg and a spoon of peanut butter stirred into the oat bran. The oat bran is 17 grams of net carbs (compared to Wheaties 57) and 0 grams of sugar (compared to 12.) The protein in the egg kept me from getting hungry until 11am.

Cholesterol and fat intake are going up a little with this new breakfast, but hopefully not enough to cause long term problems like 20 years of the Wheaties probably did.

I made egg, sausage and cheese breakfast burritos for the week.

Perk number 9803 of living close to work - heat them up in the panini press. Still warm when I get to work

There are a LOT of perks to living close to work, that's a good one.

Breakfast today was black coffee, whole wheat croissant with Jif cocoa spread (mocha flavored), honey yogurt, bacon, and eggs, fried in the skillet after the bacon.

Wow, the end of an era! For what it's worth, in my experience cholesterol levels are far more tied to carb consumption. Mr. Clod massively increased food sources of cholesterol, but nearly eliminated carbs, and his blood cholesterol went way down.

It also depends on what types of fats you're having. Just avoid trans fats and you should be pretty much right. Our bodies are build to digest fat, and obviously we all know we need some in our diet.

Today I had boiled potatoes, corn and a chicken salad sandwich. Still waiting to feel hungry to be able to take my acid reflux pill!

Weekend breakfasts, courtesy of Mum.
The first was in Brentwood. Good value at £3.95.

The second one was at a local supermarket before I left, which offered a Full Breakfast, and further down the list in smaller font a little breakfast.
This was the little breakfast. Across the table is Dad's omlette. He never takes Mum out for breakfast because he has no appetite in the morning, hence her craving for it. But when I am there to join her, he scarfs it down quite happily.

I've been making egg "cupcakes" for easy egg mcmuffins in the morning. I am sure I'll get sick of them soon, but for the next few weeks - easy breakfast

glatt · 02-16-2015, 02:35 PM

I've been doing that for a while now too. It's the trendy thing to do, and egg prices are going up as a result.
