Kick butt Breakfast/Lunch Item
Ok, I am working toward 100% grain free eating for a bit. I have now been 2 days without any bread, pasta items. I feel great. Sugars are not feeling it yet, but that will change.
Today for lunch I had some breakfast (Ainsley and I failed to make lunch together well so I punted). Here is what I had in the dish
- Eggs
- Mushrooms
- Onions
- Kielbasa
- Cheese
Now I realize that it is a simple scrambled eggs, but was so good. I had an entire onion, and about 5oz of mushrooms. I am not really a fan of mushrooms, but they hit the spot just perfect today.
Now, I feel full and energized. Today is a stressful one, and so it is good to get a great meal in and feel good about it. Breakfast for me today was a Primal Fuel shake. That means for the day so far I am at at TOTAL of 35 GROSS (26net) carbs. That is AWESOME. Tonight for dinner I am planning on a green smoothie to take me into the evening feeling full and wonderful.
I learned last night that cashews spike my sugars. That is a bummer. I had some cashews and walnuts as a snack around 9:30pm and when I went to bed my sugar was at 209 (up from 174 at 6pm with dinner) and I figured it would drop some, but woke up to 239 so it rose another 30pts. Either that is the “sunrise surprise” that I deal with everyday or it was the nuts. I suspect the nuts as I had to get up about 3hrs after I went to bed at a 11:00pm and that usually means my sugars are very high 200s or low 300s. So, I suspect I spiked up and then came down. So no more post 7pm snacking on anything. Just a big jug of water and go to bed.
Onward to my goals of happy, healthy and loving it. I am already at the happy and loving it so time to reach the healthy goal.
