In my quest to have starch only one time per day, I'm having a tough time planning breakfast. I also have some other issues to add to the mix, I think I'm lactose intolerant. Lately, milk has been causing some awful digestive issues. So, any suggestions that do not include starch or milk?

Eggs.

I eat them most days for breakfast. Sometimes I make a breakfast bowl with eggs, some chopped garden tomatoes, maybe a 1/4 avocado. No starch. Sometimes I do eat my eggs on a low carb whole wheat wrap. You could add a slice of turkey bacon (only 35 calories) or a boca sausage patty if you want a little bigger breakfast.

Another staple in our house (mainly for DH) is a smoothie - I use almond milk, frozen berries, maybe a half frozen banana. I do usually put some plain yogurt in too for thickness. Not sure if yogurt upsets your stomach as milk does. Again, no starch.

Good luck!

I eat a lot of eggs for breakfast too... I usually boil them and arrange them on a platter with ff cheeses and fruit. Another option is a ff cheese omelette loaded with veggies...
Hopefully that will help!
Enjoy!

My sister just called and shes on low carbing and told me that she had broccoli & cauliflower for breakfast.I know Ughh!! but if you can't have carb or milk prods. Veggies and eggs are you best bet.

Cottage Cheese and fruit, eggs, ham or canadian bacon. Why only 1 starch a day - it's not good to eliminate whole grains.

Susan-I'm just trying to jump start my weight loss. I've been on a plateau for a few weeks. Wow, I was looking at your weight loss. How have you done it?

Sloan, try making egg cups. What I do is sautee my favorite veggies -- onions, peppers, broccoli or spinach, add some diced candian bacon or lean ham. Take that mixture and loosly fill a sprayed muffin pan, top with ff or soy cheese. Then I just take a carton of egg substitute and fill each cup.

Bake at 375 for 15-20 minutes (until the egg is cooked). These freeze well and are quick to grab and microwave. Enjoy!

Fruit salad?
