Mine includes the following. (I use it in the morning because I rarely feel like eating then.)

1 cup of strong coffee.
1 spoonful of high quality coconut oil.
1 tsp of butter. (I use Kerrygold unsalted)
2 spoon of heavy whipping cream.

I put it all in the blender and it feels like I am getting a special treat.

Added Note: To avoid any misunderstanding, bullet proof coffee does NOT reduce blood sugar. It simply breaks my fast from the night before because I deal with The Dawn Phenomenon. Simply eating breakfast would have the same result for me.

This morning my reading was 123. I am not gonna get too excited about the lower number (yet) though because I didn't get enough sleep last night so the "fast time" was shorter than normal.

112 this morning. My FBG numbers have been elevated for a few months since I started incorporating intermediate fasting several times a week. My A1c results yesterday revealed 5.6, up 1 tenth from my last. No worries.

A very surprising 87 (4.8) this morning. I expected much higher.

Ate at a different fish restaurant last night than we normally do. Its not buffet style so you kind of take what they give you. I was able to substitute a house salad for the french fries. I erred in thinking I could have a small portion of the other set up items. Two tablespoons of cole slaw, 1 tablespoon of pinto beans, 3 tablespoons of the pickled green tomato relish. The cole slaw and relish tasted like they were made of pure sugar, they were so sweet. Having 4 hush puppies didn't help either.

Didn't test before we left to go eat, but had not eaten since breakfast. Was shocked to see a 2 hr PP of 197 after getting home. Put in 10,000 steps on the back porch over the next hour and 20 minutes and tested 78. Went to bed at an 84 and expected a rebound, maybe it hasn't hit yet.

I was very surprised to see my 116 this morning.

I probably had < 10g carbs all day, and those were in my BPC (HW cream), sugarless gum, a tsp of chopped onions on my all meat zero carb chili.

I essentially fasted from dinner the night before till dinner yesterday. I did have BPC in the morning, worked half a day, went grocery shopping, worked around home then made an all meat and spice chili which i had for dinner.

For some reason I completely forgot to check my fasting numbers this morning.

I had a late lunch with my grandchildren at Chili's - 6 oz steak, small salad, and steamed broccoli. I am at 94 right now.
