You are doing what works best for you...keep it up.. 

eggs and sausage with cheeses added later at lunchtime. 

I usually have a cup of V8, one egg on heavy wheat toast (good seed bread, thin sliced, 70 calories) and 16g bacon. 265 calories. I love it. Sometimes I add some apple, carrots, or avocado. I've lost 19 pounds this month.  

whats with the salami ? 

this morning I had 3 oz t bone steak egg white omelet with spinach and 1/2 slice provolone cheese, sliced tomatoes. coffee and half and half creamer. 351 calories less than 4 grams carb. 

looks like pepperoni instead of salami. yes no 

bulletproof coffee with collagen. IF til noon. keeps me going, even with farm chores! Burn that fat! 

Look great! My breakfast is not as tasty as yours. I drink a meal replacement protein shake. 

Great looking breakfast! Is that bagel and pepperoni? What kind of cheese? 

Not any kind of bread if I can help it . : ) 

Carl Reiner did a show that I recently saw about people who live well into their 90s. One lady was still running races at 97 or so. One thing she said that I try to keep in mind is eat for nutrition, not for taste. If it works for you, keep at it. 

I only eat 2 scrambled eggs. What kind of bread is that, or is it bread? 

It's actually coconut flour. Not real bread but I pretend it is. LOL It's grounded coconut with egg and butter. And yes it's pepperoni. Not salami. I like the saltiness of it. And its a slice of cheddar cheese that got destroyed on my commute to work. hahaha 

That actually looks delicious to me!! 

Coconut Flour Mug Bread Recipe. 90 second Bread made with coconut flour. Ingredients: 2 Tablespoons of bob's red mill organic high fiber coconut flour. 1 large egg. 1 tbsp butter (salted). 1 tbsp heavy cream. 1/4 teaspoon baking powder. Directions: 1. Mix all the ingredients in a bowl, 2. Pour into a mug (or just mix them in the mug), 3. Microwave for 90 seconds, 4. Remove, slice, and serve. You may also toast it after for some crunch. 

2 boiled eggs, 1 slice whole wheat toast, tea with no sugar, or; Post Honey Nut Shredded Wheat, milk, OJ, or; oatmeal with milk, cinnamon and teaspoon of sugar.  

Interesting! Do you know the nutrition info for the bread? 

Soooooo Good!!!!! 

I think that we fall into thinking only certain foods can be eaten for breakfast or lunch or dinner. First, think outside the box; think nutrition and satiability. That leaves the door open for anything! Search the net for ideas about low carb cereals, smoothies, protein drinks, bars, granola...Are you a breakfast person? I am not, and prefer more traditional breakfast for lunch or dinner. If it is "not your thing, drop it. How about a hamburger patty and asparagus (left over from the night before)? Muffin quiches? Muffin meatloaf? Chicken salad on lettuce leaves? Fathead pizza? How about fathead pizza crust (cooked without toppings) with peanut or almond butter?  

All kinds of things, Lox and cream cheese on Keto bagel, ricotta cheese with cinnamon and Stevia (gotta watch the carbs, some have 6 which are crazy - I get the type with 2 carbs). Bullet Coffee when I'm not feeling like I want to eat anything. I make Keto peanut butter cake or blueberry pancakes. LOTS of bacon (Canadian, Turkey and regular good old fashion bacon depending on my mood). I make cinnamon cloud breads, soooo many choices.
