Woo hoo - weight loss

[alpinerabbit]

That would be anything that does not release simple sugars into your bloodstream rapidly. Such as the darkest dark bread you can find - in the US, I don't know if you can find pumpernickel. I often had 2 slices of pumpernickel and 50g gruyere (I live in switzerland so I get decent cheese).

Simple sugars are hidden in many commercial cereals (not in plain rolled grains), sugar in coffee, in fruit yoghurt, and in orange juice (!). White bread, jam.

some protein helps - cheese, a boiled egg, cottage cheese. Maybe a home-made cereal from rolled oats, crushed nuts, some protein powder, a few (!)raisins, some cinnamon and maybe a wee tad of sugar or honey.

Just measure your portions. 250 cal is not a lot.
maybe google for glycemic index and breakfast suggestions for diabetics?

MMMmmm, bread. I love pumpernickel!! I never knew it was good for me too. I'll have to go to the bakery after work. Thanks for the advice.
