FAQ + Craving Support
Why do I still crave sugar after eating this breakfast casserole?
Those cravings are echoes, not commands. You just fed protein and steady fat, the signal is changing. Breathe, drink water, and give it two meals. If you want a faster clamp on urges, run the Sugar Craving Recovery. You are not just eating, you are training your cravings.
How do I keep my energy stable until lunch?
Slice slowly and eat to calm, not speed. Keep portions clean, no bread on the side. If you still dip, use the Afternoon Crash Recovery plan and adjust your fat to protein balance at the next breakfast.
Can I make this lighter or dairy free without losing satisfaction?
Yes. Swap part of the cheese for diced avocado or add more spinach for volume. You keep the creamy feel and reduce dairy load. For smarter fat choices that keep you full, study the Fat and Oil Guide. Calm control beats restriction every time.
Is this just another keto recipe?
If you think this is just food, ask who trained your sugar habit. This is a practice that rewrites response. Run the 3 Day Reset to clear the noise, then set your mornings with the Breakfast Optimization guide. Each slice is a choice toward control.
