me too! i got a diabetic cookbook at the library that helped me come up w/ a few more ideas....also, quaker instant low sugar oatmeal works well for me....by BS stays pretty low after it!
Im dying for maple syrup though and havent tried any low sugar type yet
I bought Aunt Jemima (I think that's the brand) SF maple syrup and it's not bad. ?It's a little runny, but it totally does the job. ?I actually had pancakes (4 silver dollar sized, one had chocolate chips) for breakfast today (with my stupid eggs) and put whipped cream (the regular kind from the can- not SF- there's only like 1g of sugar in it anyway!!) and the SF syrup.... omg SO GOOD! ?And my sugar was 92 two hours later.
I do a little better with eggs if I switch between hard boiled and fried/scrambled. Somehow I think of the hardboiled ones differently.
But this week I've been eating sausage and cheese breakfast biscuits. If you can handle what is basically white bread carbs from the biscuit, it's a wonderful change!! (A regular canned biscuit only has 14g carbs) I made mine and froze them, but the numbers looked just as good on the store packaged ones as long as you can find ones that aren't "jumbo".
Re: GDers...I'm so tired of eggs for breakfast
i may not eat eggs for years after this baby is born!
So much so that I had a hotdog this morning!

So much so that I switched to having a protein shake and yogurt several weeks ago!
