Getting more fat
So I keep having the issue of getting my macros right. I can easily keep the carbs under control, but I always have more protein than fat.
Most my meals look like this
Breakfast: eggs and bacon or sausage
Lunch: chicken or some meat with a green like broccoli.
Dinner ( if I have it) sorta the same as lunch.
Snacks: olives, pickles, 2 tbps of pb.
Can you help me ?

hatsumi141 Quick question regarding the bulletproof coffee. Did you just add the butter and oil and mix it, or did you use a blender to really get it mixed together? I personally don't notice the buttery/oily taste because I've blended it together from day one.
You could also try substituting the butter for heavy cream. My wife likes to add stevia to her BP coffee.

hatsumi141 Blending will make the BP coffee seem more of a latte without the butter and MCT oil rising to the top, so I would imagine it would be much better!
I've seen plenty of people use heavy cream in place of butter, but the real kicker is the MCT oil. It's full of the healthy medium chain triglycerides (hence the MCT), and does wonders for mental focus and clarity. I notice that I'm always much more attentive on days with my BP coffee vs. without it.
