Before following Peat, I would have had just a small red potato fried with some eggs, and bacon, and black coffee, and my blood sugar would probably have been between 130 and 140 after the meal.
That's pretty mind-boggling. Your "before" breakfast does sound a lot more like mine - though I do love raw cream in my coffee, and/or coconut oil. One or the other. But I don't like orange juice, and I absolutely *hate* sugar in my coffee - so no temptations there. I guess I have to decide what else I could do about that.
