I eat the same thing every morning half a banana and 1 serving of oat bran or oatmeal unless its race day then I have 2 servings of oats 3 hrs prior to the race but I see that you can't eat oats or the bran. How about cottage cheese and some fruit.

Some ideas for snacks... nuts (almonds are one of the best), cheese, dark chocolate (70% cocoa or higher), pork rinds/scratchings, cold meats, boiled eggs, peanut butter.Des Moines Weight Loss

I mixed it all together and then spread it on the apple slices. It was really yummy and gave me a great start of the day with the protein in it.

This sounds delicious! I'm going to try it tomorrow.

my most common breakfasts:

two eggs, dry, with hot sauce
bowl of gluten free honey rice puffins with almond milk
bowl of gluten free instant oatmeal with peanut butter and sliced banana
slice of gluten free toast (Udi's) with peanut butter and cinnamon
sugarless applesauce muffin from the coffee shop
cup of trail mix - peanuts, raisins, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and cranberries
sometimes I'll have something like a melon pan from the Japanese bakery near my office - that's a treat type of thing though.

of note - oatmeal is not supposed to have gluten in it! if you're eating highly processed stuff like Quaker then yes, it's not guaranteed gluten free since it's processed on the same equipment as wheat products, but Red Mills makes a wonderful guaranteed gluten free instant oatmeal. also, steel cut oats are generally gluten free as well, but take longer to cook (I throw them in the slow cooker the night before).

also, I do not have ciliac, but try to limit my gluten intake for health reasons.

4 ready to eat turkey sausage links and a cinnamon roll protein shake = 10 carbs and makes me happy and very full

I have a protein shake with unsweetened almond milk and sometimes 1/2 banana. But even with this very low carb breakfast...prebanana...I have to take 1 unit of Humalog to keep my after-breakfast sugars down.

I have been using a protein shake with 2% sugar

I'm not a big cereal lover. I've always preferred dinner leftovers my whole life. However, since being diagnosed 3/28/13 with a BG of 458 I've had to tweak my diet just a little.
I tried oatmeal and my BG spiked. A good friend of mine said he tried Kashi Go Lean and his BG went down. I gave it a try and although mine didn't go down it didn't go up much either.
I keep containers of cooked barley (made with beef broth, onions, garlic & herbes de provence, lentils (made with chicken broth, onions, garlic & thyme), brown rice (chicken broth) and quinoa (chicken broth, tomatoes, onion, garlic and lots of curry powder).
I also keep containers of cooked green vegetables in the fridge.
For breakfast I'll have a cup of one of the grains, some of the vegies mixed in and a hardboiled egg. I'll also sprinkle on a tablespoon of flaxseed that I coarsely grind in an old coffee grinder.
My fasting BG has been under 100 for nearly two weeks and my post prandials have been under 140 !
I can't tell you how thrilled I am...
