Guest guest Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 I have always heard of this drink as a bloody Joe. like it as well my self, but yet to enjoy it at breakfast. Re: toast and jelly. Some times I have a beer for breakfast. If I do I like to add a can of v8 or tomato juice to the brew to give it a better taste, since I drink the Micholobe Ultra beer with 2.65 grams of carbs in it, making it virtually tasteless, but alone the beer is still a good thirst clincher. I call the combo a redeye, or red eye.The total beer contains 12 ounces of beer and the red eye has an additional 6.5 oundces of juice in it.Total grams of carbs in the drink is slight less than a total of 10 grams of carbs. My favorite drink is beer, but I like a quality brew like Heinekin or St. i Girl or a regular , but each of these taste good and contains 12 grams of carbs in each 12 ounce bottle of beer.

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 My husband tried some blueberry jam he had bought for himself. Loving blueberries, I tried a teaspoon of it. It made my teeth hurt It was so sweet! _____ From: blind-diabetics [mailto:blind-diabetics ] On Behalf Of Mark Ruth Sent: Wednesday, May 09, 2012 5:26 AM To: blind-diabetics Subject: Re: toast and jelly. to sweet? I have never met to sweet that I can recall. have tried lots of sugar free jelly, jam, preserves and the such. folks say this one and that one is the best. well I tried them and I still prefer the real thing. actually I would rather half one table spoon of the real stuff, then 3 table spoons of the fake stuff. most sugar free or fat free to me has a funny taste. I can how ever drink the diet drinks on the market and be ok with them. I don't have them every day and wouldn't like them any more if I did. take a piece of steak for example, if you purchase the piece that has no fat in it, then it has no taste to me. I think a little fat in meat is needed if you like the flavor of the meat. not saying that lots of fat is good, because it is way bad to eat to much. but a bit I think is ok and even needed as well in our daily diets. use to love peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. now I mix up a bit of jelly with peanut butter and spread it on a slice of whole grain toast with lots of fiber. one way to tell about fiber in bread is fiber will make the bread very heavy. light bread is very light and feels like holding a feather because no fiber. the whole grain we eat has names like in the Bible. couldn't spell them if I tried. maybe I will have some one read the label so I can write it down and send it to you. my peanut butter and jelly one side bread sandwich is grate with black coffee. I'm still a work in progress for a fact, but I'm learning new things that help and keep me on track with out giving up those things I dig. I never would have believed the fact that a half of a gallon of milk could last me one week like now it does. I measure out eight ounces of milk and I don't have more. I actually sip it and not down it like a cold beer. maybe I should have beer for breakfast instead of milk? I mean the low carb beer has only 3 carbs per eight ounces. the milk has 13 in the same eight ounces. so instead of only eight ounces of beer, I could have at least 4 beers for breakfast instead. this is 32 ounces of low carb beer the will equal the same as only one cup of milk! well guess I got to count the calories to. now beer for breakfast is a different twist for sure. If some one on the list will try a beer for breakfast first and then tell me how it was, then maybe I will try then to see if you are right! toast and jelly. some times for breakfast I make me a slice of whole grain bread. then I melt a bit of real butter in the microwave. then add one table spoon of strawberry preserves and mix up real good in the melted butter. then I spread it on my toast and have a eight ounce glass of milk. this doesn't raise my sugar over 120. of course I always ride my no where bike for 45 minutes between breakfast and lunch which is around six hours. I love eggs, but it is nice to do something different from time to time. the kicker is I'm happy with only my cup of milk. this blows my silly mind to believe and witness the fact that I the fat pig all my life can now drink only a cup of milk and not tare the house down! of course I as well have coffee. I tried lots of the sugar free jams on the market and even if I could have more then just a table spoon of those kinds, I just can't find one I really like. so would rather have the real deal and have less. to me it taste much better.

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 Oh, I am not familiar with them. Maybe I better stick with the cereal because I can just have a small bowl. They say a serving is half a cup and I don't always even have that. toast and jelly. some times for breakfast I make me a slice of whole grain bread. then I melt a bit of real butter in the microwave. then add one table spoon of strawberry preserves and mix up real good in the melted butter. then I spread it on my toast and have a eight ounce glass of milk. this doesn't raise my sugar over 120. of course I always ride my no where bike for 45 minutes between breakfast and lunch which is around six hours.

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 choke you say? lima beans are grate. I always heard them called butter beans as a kid. the big one's are the best, but loaded with carbs. one cup of any type bean has right at 50 carbs. who can eat just one cup of beans? black beans have the fewest, but don't know if I like black beans or not. toast and jelly. some times for breakfast I make me a slice of whole grain bread. then I melt a bit of real butter in the microwave. then add one table spoon of strawberry preserves and mix up real good in the melted butter. then I spread it on my toast and have a eight ounce glass of milk. this doesn't raise my sugar over 120. of course I always ride my no where bike for 45 minutes between breakfast and lunch which is around six hours.
