Buffy Buffington gets Buffer

I am down to the wire in my 40+ group challenge…standards are high, diet is STRICT, workouts are intense.  But, in all honesty, it’s the diet I’ve concerned myself with the most.  Especially, getting enough protein.  It is not easy, and I stumble and make mistakes here and there, but I can tell you, without a doubt, that I am seeing DAILY improvement in my physique.  So, when people tell you "abs are made in the kitchen" and "it’s ALL ABOUT the diet", listen.  Believe.  My pics will be up within 2 weeks.  The proof is always in the pics.  True story.

The chicken breast.  Hate it.  Used to love it.  Then I hated it.  Then it was tolerable.  Well, I’m back to hating it.  Started a new transformation challenge this morning, and I cooked up a crapload of breasts for my work lunches.  Cannot even stand the freakin’ SMELL of it, and I don’t even re-heat those lil b!tches.  I just eat it cold.  Reheated?  DIZZZ-GUSTING!!!  What am I gonna do?????  Perhaps I’ll smother it in ranch dressing…  No.  I won’t.  I’m just gonna have to figure out a different source of lean protein that I can stomach.  I already supp with protein powder 2-3 times a day.  Don’t wanna rely on it so much.  Trying to stay away from the deli meats.  Love red meat, but you know you need to watch it.  Love cottage cheese most days, but it’s becoming more and more like the breasts.  Some days, icks me OWT!!  Crap.  Egg whites?  Eh.  I can only handle ‘em so much, and I really, really only like ‘em with toast.  Maybe I’ll try oatmeal/pp for breakfast, and move my egg whites/toast to lunch. 

 Any suggestions are appreciated!
