Happy Saturday! I hope you are all doing well. I know some people in the group have had some recent tough news for themselves or family members. It really puts the day to day issues we face into perspective, and reminds me to just focus on doing the best I can to be as healthy as possible. To those who are having a hard time, we are all here for you and sending you some prayers and support. 🙏🏼🙏🏼 Just focus today on doing the best you can and remember that food isn't going to bring you the comfort you are looking for.

Here is a little video of Penelopes performance from her piano recital l last night, she's been taking lessons for about a year and a half. 🎹🤍🖤

Thinking about the year ahead can be overwhelming when it comes to goal setting. For some people, like me, short term goals can be much more motivating. Right now it's beast mode through the Meetup this Saturday. That said, I do still have long term goals for the year. Staying carnivore is just a given now as it's my life already so I have to dive a little deeper for me. I'd like to stay in the same weight range but lower my body fat a bit. Gain some muscle mass in short. Gym at least 4 times a week and beast mode at the same time is my recipe.

Steak video for interest. 🤪

Do you do better with short or long term goals?

So sorry guys, my 2 1/2 hour drive home from the cabin is turning into a 5+ hour drive home so I am not going to make it in time to Livestream tonight. I'll post the link for the Dr Berry Livestream for tomorrow when I know it. I'll catch up on posts here when I get home if you have any questions.

Happy Friday! It's great to be home and sleeping in my own bed again! I definitely didn't get enough sleep this week. That's the trade off that seems to happen; I got all my shoes in and I made time to exercise, but then my sleep suffers. It often just feels like there are not enough hours in the day.

Here is a fun question for you for this Friday: If you had one extra hour in the day (as if a day was now 25 hours long), what would you do in that one extra hour?

For me: sleep 😴😂😂

Struggling mentally just a bit. I think I’m over the bug we had but the fires in the mountains are affecting my lungs. Which is making me grumpy. Also have some medical things I need to decide. I have a few options and some are quite expensive and may not be necessary, some are alternative and cheaper but still expensive for me. 🙏🏻🙏🏻’s for wisdom and $$$.

Dinner will be tritip and flanken ribs. We have a family wedding tomorrow and I know it’s BBQ so hopefully I can find some meat. Will eat a nice tritip piece before we head out since it’s a 2 1/2 hr drive (day trip). Putting a chuck roast in the crockpot before we leave so I have food prepped for Sunday. I also put some Cornish game hens in the fridge to thaw.

It's finally Friday (evening) Family!! Some weeks just go on forever....

It was a weird eating day. I woke up starving, which I never am. So one hot coffee and one iced coffee and a protein bar. The iced coffee had some different vanilla protein powder in it that instantly upset my stomach. Blech... Dealt with that for a couple of hours.

It is HOT and humid here which also makes me feel nauseous.

Home to thankfully cool off, then into the city for Date Night to Sam's of course and a sports bar for burgers.

I've felt off for the past 3 days. Partly the heat/humidity, horrormoans (the crabby w1tch is gone for another month) and maybe too many veggies? The garden tomatoes are coming on. But as much as my mouth loves them, my tummy does not.

Clean up day tomorrow. @Veebs , will do a 1-2 day egg fast and maybe add in a can or two per day of the fishies. Sunday evening will start a water fast, if anyone wants to join me. I always feel good the week after the hormones when I fast.

Another thing I'm ...
