For all you low-carbers out there, here is a great recipe.

Ingredients:

• 1 package bacon
• 1 box of eggs
• Shredded cheddar, crumbled goat cheese, or any cheese you like
• Chopped herbs such as chives, dill, thyme

Directions:

• On medium heat, fry bacon on a skillet until slightly browned on each side, but still pliable – don’t let them get crispy
• Drain on paper towels and let cool
• Preheat oven to 400
• Line muffin cups (or ramekins) with bacon slices, making sure to cover the bottom too (tear off chunks of bacon to fill the bottom)
• Crack an egg into each cup
• Add cheese on top
• Sprinkle with herbs, salt and freshly cracked pepper
• Bake until set, approx 15 min
• Carefully run a knife around each to loosen from the cup and remove

This TEDMed video was titled, “How healthy living nearly killed me.” It’s not quite as dramatic as that, but it was interesting.

When he talked about wearing a helmet EVERYWHERE, it pushed things over the edge for me. I admit I’ve had a bicycle helmet that I’ve loved so much that I wanted to wear it all the time, but when I said that to Mike, he let me know with a single look that I was acting crazy.

When the health advice out there is so extreme that it makes you look crazy to follow it, it’s time to reevaluate our health advice.

The next time you think men only like skinny women, remember this song by Blind Boy Fuller.

“I got a big fat woman and don’t need little lean woman no mo’!”
