I also usually shovel down about 1/2 cup cottage cheese after each meal, it's really good with a little sea salt and fresh ground pepper. It helps balance the carbs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-favorite-gd-friendly-breakfast-meal#post-2007996 Sat, 03 Jan 2015 14:03:01 +0000 youboots 2007996@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have been on my GD diet for two weeks now and it's going well. I have been eating the 100 calorie yoplait or chobani Greek yogurts (about 15g carbs) with a 1/4 raw oats from TJs stirred in. Sometimes a mandrin Orange. I also make breakfast cassorole which I did prior to GD and eat off that for a couple days. Use a 9x9 baking dish cover the bottom with shredded potatos (I get the refrigerated simply potatos SW style and use 1/3 to 1/2 of the bag) top with 1/2-1 whole roll of sage sausage cooked, top with 2 cups cheese scramble 4 eggs with a bit of milk and salt and pepper and pour over the top. Bake covered at 350 for about 40 minutes. A few minutes uncovered after if needed. It's so good. You can double it and do a 9x13 and cook a little longer. I make them on Sundays for football then we have breakfast leftovers for a couple days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-favorite-gd-friendly-breakfast-meal#post-2007979 Sat, 03 Jan 2015 13:54:45 +0000 Raindrop 2007979@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Bummers about round 2 of GD!!</p> <p>GD is tough.</p> <p>Man I was totally not a breakfest person. Give me a cup of tea and I was good to go till lunch.</p> <p>That being said... my go to breakfest was a slice of ham (thick cut from Costco) and half a medium size tortilla. I would nuke the tortilla for 5-10 seconds... put my ham in it and rolled up and stuffed it in my mouth and was on my way. Sometimes I added some kind of cheese or used turkey to switch it up. </p> <p>I thought I would get bored of it... but nope... still eat this basically everyday. I have had GD since week 12 and now I'm week 36. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-favorite-gd-friendly-breakfast-meal#post-2005430 Thu, 01 Jan 2015 15:47:51 +0000 autumnlove 2005430@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Happygal: oh Ya, I was down to less than 1/4 cup so it was just a tease. :-p</p> <p>@MamaG: Boo for our multiple GD pregnancies! I was bummed last night but I am over being sad. It was manageable last time so I hope it is the same this time!</p> <p>@Rainbow Sprinkles: sounds yummy! Seasoning?!? Your MIL would not approve! </p> <p>@lilteacherbee: FX! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-favorite-gd-friendly-breakfast-meal#post-2005291 Thu, 01 Jan 2015 13:38:10 +0000 Mamasig 2005291@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to make a batch of egg muffins with spinach, cheese, and bacon. I'd eat one with a wheat English muffin. It did get old after a while! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-favorite-gd-friendly-breakfast-meal#post-2005239 Thu, 01 Jan 2015 13:09:05 +0000 MamaG 2005239@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Btw, I dealt with this twice as well. The second time wasn't awful as I was already aware of what worked for me. Good luck. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-favorite-gd-friendly-breakfast-meal#post-2005236 Thu, 01 Jan 2015 13:04:49 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 2005236@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Eggs scrambled with seasoned turkey meat (taco seasoning. I'll usually cook it in advance or it will be leftovers from tacos the night before) and veggies, like onions, green peppers, and tomatoes. Topped with a little cheese and avocado. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-favorite-gd-friendly-breakfast-meal#post-2005235 Thu, 01 Jan 2015 13:02:38 +0000 lilteacherbee 2005235@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh no :( I have a feeling I'll be joining you.</p> <p>I ate lots of English muffins with peanut butter. Also, eggs. Lots of eggs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-favorite-gd-friendly-breakfast-meal#post-2005219 Thu, 01 Jan 2015 12:52:03 +0000 MamaG 2005219@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Bagel thin with cream cheese or peanut butter, applesauce cup and turkey sausage. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-favorite-gd-friendly-breakfast-meal#post-2005216 Thu, 01 Jan 2015 12:50:19 +0000 ShootingStar 2005216@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I ate an egg mcmuffin and hashbrowns pretty much every single day. Potatoes didn't give a huge hit to my numbers until the end. I couldn't eat cereal or any kind of oatmeal without feeling really awful. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-favorite-gd-friendly-breakfast-meal#post-2005212 Thu, 01 Jan 2015 12:47:15 +0000 Happygal 2005212@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: I kept reducing the amount, hoping to find I could tolerate it at a certain level. I like having something hot in the AM. No dice, but you can't say I didn't try! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-favorite-gd-friendly-breakfast-meal#post-2005191 Thu, 01 Jan 2015 12:30:07 +0000 autumnlove 2005191@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Happygal: Ya, oatmeal was out for me last time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-favorite-gd-friendly-breakfast-meal#post-2005190 Thu, 01 Jan 2015 12:27:38 +0000 Happygal 2005190@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm pretty resistant in the morning. Oatmeal is out, 100%. Half a whole grain English muffin w/PB. Cottage cheese with fruit is good for me at anytime. Hmmm......I'm not a big breakfast person to start with, so coming up with ideas and forcing myself to eat has been the pits! Sorry you're here again. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-favorite-gd-friendly-breakfast-meal#post-2005188 Thu, 01 Jan 2015 12:25:21 +0000 snowjewelz 2005188@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh and I can usually eat 1-2 slices of the lowest carb wheat bread I can find and slather on the PB! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-favorite-gd-friendly-breakfast-meal#post-2005182 Thu, 01 Jan 2015 12:13:01 +0000 Cherrybee 2005182@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ooh, ooh, or a ham and cheese omelette! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-favorite-gd-friendly-breakfast-meal#post-2005181 Thu, 01 Jan 2015 12:12:32 +0000 Cherrybee 2005181@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Bacon and scrambled eggs!

Once I take my after breakfast score an hour later I drink a cup of milk. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-favorite-gd-friendly-breakfast-meal#post-2005168 Thu, 01 Jan 2015 11:57:04 +0000 blackbird 2005168@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh noooo :(</p> <p>Can you do eggs, avocado, and a turkey sausage of some kind? That kind of stuff always kept me full for awhile when I wasn't pregnant </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-favorite-gd-friendly-breakfast-meal#post-2005143 Thu, 01 Jan 2015 11:27:00 +0000 autumnleaves 2005143@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually started with a crust less/flour less quiche with spinach and cheese, sometimes a meat in there or zucchini or broccoli instead of spinach. When I was tired of eggs, I'd make a egg white oatmeal protein pancake, omitting the sugar, and adding walnuts and a touch of maple syrup on top. If I put too much syrup on, I was out of range with my levels. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-favorite-gd-friendly-breakfast-meal#post-2005138 Thu, 01 Jan 2015 11:19:00 +0000 dc yoga bee 2005138@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: I'm sorry :( .

I had tons of eggs too! And I bought a ton of frozen sausage patties. And avocados, cheese... If I was going to work I just eat these all separately. If I was home I usually have it in omelet form. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-favorite-gd-friendly-breakfast-meal#post-2005129 Thu, 01 Jan 2015 11:07:40 +0000 autumnlove 2005129@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My A1C numbers came back from my prenatal intake appt and it looks like I have round 2 of GD! :-(</p> <p>What are your favorite breakfasts?
