I just discovered that Popeyes the fast food restaurant sells blackened chicken tenders. No breading.

They are so good. 170 calories for 3 tenders and 26g of Protein. 2g of carbs I think.

Don't let them give you a biscuit though. I got one planning on throwing it away. It looked better than Michael Fassbender and I think he looks pretty darn good!

I dont know who Michael is, but thanks for the tips!

Oh and thanks for the chicken tip, but now you have sent my mind elsewhere, LOL!

Thanks for the info. If I go, I'll think of the biscuit as looking better than Halle berry.

Dang jess9395! Now I'm not thinking about that biscuit at all!

Hello Michael!

Popeye's is nothing but trouble for me... Their fried chicken was one of my top five trouble foods. I could eat the black Beans and rice by the bucket load...

The one thing from Popeyes I never touch are the biscuits!

Their mashed potatoes and gravy, though? Heaven. And their chicken is kryptonite to me.

I don't live near one anymore thank goodness. My favorite used to be the red beans and rice.

Blackened chicken tenders sound great.

Gonna have to give those a try !!!

YES!! I have to stay away from Popeyes. Let's just say before surgery, "red beans and rice didn't miss her" (me). ????

Since I'm allergic to Beans they are a nonissue to me.

My question is: Am I the only one who can't tolerate rice? I am almost 5 years out and rice and me are a definite "no go"--not even a wee bit.

I used to love Popeye's chicken and shrimp, but since "Sleevy" came into my love, it's all too spicy for me. Has anyone else's taste buds changed since surgery?

I can't do rice either, not a bit of it, and I'm over two years out. And my taste buds have definitely changed in many ways, but spicey isn't one of them! I love spicey!

@@Valentina I can do a small bit of rice but that is it and I'm 2 years out. Consider it a good thing to not be able to eat rice! lol

"red Beans and rice didn't miss her" (me).

That made me laugh... How often do we have a Sir Mix-A-Lot reference on BariatricPal?

This used to be one of my favorite workout songs (along with Back That A** Up) but now when it comes on I feel ridiculous because I completely lost my butt. Now I look a bit "knock kneed" but heck, my waist is the smallest it has even been so I'll take it. "Little in the middle" Check! "But she's got much back." Not so much...
