It’s treatment day so I make sure I get a meal in beforehand because my sweet nurses always have lots of snacks and candy so I don’t go there hungry.

I put half of teaspoon of butter on both sides of one slice of rustic sourdough bread and added it to a pan on medium heat.

Then I scrambled 2 eggs and 1 tablespoon cottage cheese, little bit of grated Parmesan cheese, with a little water and seasoned with garlic and onion powder and black pepper. Blended it for few seconds.

Flip bread over and pour egg mixture over it.

Once other side of bread is toasted, remove from pan, cut in half and stack the egg side together.

Usually like to add some arugula and tomatoes but didn’t have time today.

Will make a full video next time I make it. Super easy and super tasty.

I really wasn’t that hungry for lunch and decided to do some prep for dinner, but it’s important to get my meals, especially protein in as best as I can.

So I sliced some baby tomatoes on the vine along with some sliced red onion and a cup of cottage cheese that I seasoned with my ranch seasoning.

Got 19 grams of protein from the cottage, 2 grams from the tomatoes and 1 gram from the onions for a total of 22 grams.

Next time I will add a boiled eggs to get me closer to 30 grams and swap in pickled onions for gut health.

I call this prep for steadiness and it’s a win for me today.

There is no cure for Myeloma Myeloma Cancer, just treatments and medications

Multiple Myeloma Risk Factors

While the exact cause of multiple myeloma isn’t known, there are a few factors that may increase your risk:

Older age
Male gender
Obesity
African American/Black heritage
Family history
Having other plasma cell diseases

Multiple Myeloma Cancer affects Blacks/Africans/African Americans at a higher rate than others and unfortunately are often diagnosed much later.

Let’s spread awareness, show support, and honor the fighters, survivors, and those we have lost.

Ahi tuna with amino acids instead of soy sauce for protein

1/4 piece sliced avocado for fat

sliced Persian cucumbers (extra hydration) baby yellow and orange tomatoes on the vine for carbs

My appetite goes through may ebbs and flows. Sometimes I lose my appetite while in the middle of eating and I contend with nausea frequently.

So one of the pivots I’ve made now is eating my protein first, carbs (vegetables/fruit) and fats second and carbs (grains, pasta,rice) third.

I call this Prep for Steadiness so that I get satieted from the protein which also allows the natural GLP1 hormone to kick in my system.

Batch cooking is where you make a few things that can quickly turn into meals that you can easily grab from the fridge.

Preheat oven to 350-400 degrees. Cook about 30 mins or until meat temperature is at 165 degrees.

Chicken thighs was season with turmeric, sea salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, parsley, juice from one lemon, about 3 teaspoons chopped garlic, 1 onion sliced. Line baking dish with parchment paper and cover so chicken will make its own broth and be so tender and juicy

This week baked regular and Japanese yams, tuna salad, rice, shrimp, and based chicken thighs, cucumbers, tomatoes, and salad are on deck.

The yams can be accompanied with any of the proteins.

The shrimp will go with rice as well as with scrambled eggs and spinach for breakfast.

Chicken thighs will go with yams as well as on top of salad.
