Okay - just have to share............. YUMMY dinner!

I cut a chicken breast up into bite-sized peices. Put them in a hot pan with EVOO. Sprinkled with cinnamon, paprika and cayenne powder - let them sit until brown and then turned and repeated. In the Microwave, I steamed a sweet potato cut into 1" slices - then added them to the pan with the chicken - adding butter to the mix! Sprinkled the spuds with cinnamon - let it all sizzle until brown and yummy. The I poured it all onto my plate - oil, butter and all! Its so good!

That sounds sooo good Tomi.
Tonight I am making chicken "burgers" grill chicken breast with some spices, I am thinking garlic and paprika (cut the breast thin). I don't normally buy breast but I really feel like it after Tomi's post
Grill bacon and make guacamole.
Pile it all on the plate. Am thinking of adding a pineapple slice.
mmmmm yummy!

Looks like I'm going to be ordering an adrenal fatigue test. This fatigue is too much, I can literally take a nap any time during the day and sleep for hours. I'm still hoping HFLC will help in that area, it's only been a few days.

I hope things improve for you soon Erin, that sounds terrible.
I think it was 2 weeks of HFLC for me, before I felt like I was buzzing LOL

accidentally one night all we had left that we could both eat was chicken breast, bacon and eggs. so we did pan fried chicken breast with the streaky bacon nice and crispy with fried eggs on top. it was very nice and i usually dont like bacon that much. i still do things like venison ( lol ) with streaky bacon and eggs. the trick is to keep the egg yolk runny so you can dip everything in it.

So I am learning that I just can't have things made with cream cheese around. Man, the combination of the mouth feel and the taste are addicting. So I ended up eating the cream cheese/bacon dip at 2 meals and a snack yesterday. I did not go over my calories but my macros are a little out of wack. Now my fingers are puffy. I really have to stick to a no snacking rule.

Y'know what's really tasty that I'd completely forgotten about? Lox (smoked salmon.) Especially when you what a slice around a chunk of cream cheese. I need to get a side of salmon and smoke that critter myself.

Question: Is it okay if my protein is lower than calculated? By the formula it should be 50-60g, though I've actually been targeting 70g each day. Yesterday everything was a little low, protein was only 36g, fats were 101 and carbs 28. I generally haven't had much difficulty keeping protein up, in fact it's usually too high, so this is odd.

[naiadknight]

For a day or two, you should be fine, Zee. If it's consistently that low, I'd worry, but one or two days shouldn't be a bother.

Cool, thanks. I'll keep an eye on it and make sure this isn't a new trend.
