[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 480791, member: 11791"] Just something to think about, maybe try... when you eat, whatever you eat, make sure you include a balance of a different sort, too: protein, carbs, fat. If all you have for breakfast is coffee and a muffin, you get a blood-sugar spike fairly fast. If you add an egg to that, or a bit of cheese, or some PB... you've added protein (and fat)... and your blood sugar will go in a curve rather than a spike. If you want a pick-me-up between meals, grab a glass of milk - no leaner than 2%. It gives you protein, carbs and fat, all in one... even works before going to bed. Easy breakfast... IF you can eat this much! Micro-oatmeal... 1/3c quick-cooking rolled oats or porridge oats, 2/3 c boiling water, pinch of salt. Cover for 10 min or more. (we toss a dishtowel over top) Then, heat in micro until bubbly (45-60 seconds usually). Add milk and sugar to taste. Soft-boiled egg. Glass of juice. Coffee/tea if its your usual. Porridge oats: vary to taste... 3 c quick oats, 1/3 c each: wheat germ, oat bran, ground flax (or any other combo that = 1c) [/QUOTE]
