I have been using coconut cream, but not eating breakfast. I can IF to noon with some coconut oil or cream in my coffee, negating the calories and carbs in it and hopefully raising my ketones.

Morning,
I've come across this thread with some interest - and your post in particular, as I have alot of cream, cream cheese and greek yogurt in my 'Atkins' diet plan.
However, it's not the first time I've LC'd, and after a 3 week break at Christmas when I was in England on vacation and ate pretty much everything I wanted to, I returned to LC and am finding I am slower to loose the 'podge'.
I don't have as much to lose as some, and realise that is one obstacle I have, but I do rely heavily on dairy and posted myself on another section of this forum whether it could be an issue - this thread however has been far more informative.
I suffer from hives and when I started LC'ing they almost went away, but I've noticed also since coming back from vacation that I'm suffering. I'm now thinking that perhaps the amount of dairy is contributing to this.
I guess as I've had the same breakfast for such a long time on LC that I enjoy (and it's dairy heavy) I'm worried about what to have, that is quick etc.. The fact that I can fast without much problems may help me, as I also like CO in coffee and could do that to tide me over until lunchtime. Any quick ideas for this meal are appreciated as what I had been doing was skipping lunch after a large breakfast, and then having a dinner about 7pm.
I appreciate the wisdom in this thread and the areas of debate - we are all different, but the fact I'd self identified dairy as a possible issue for myself I guess has some weight to it, so although I really don't want to, I guess I need to reduce it down - ALOT!!!
Thanks,
PG!
