Here we go!!!! Day 1! Today we are making some new commitments and setting some new goals.
Your goals and challenges are going to look different than my goals and challenges. In this community, we each pick our own 1 Non-Negotiable thing to focus on for 30 days. Something small that can make a big impact on your goals when you do it (or remove it) consistently for a month. It might be a food that you keep slipping with, or it might be a behavior you want to add. A fasting window you want to hit, or ensuring you eat adequate protein. That 1 Non-Negotiable thing will be different for all of us. If you are having trouble setting one for yourself let me know.
I think setting other goals is also a good idea, but if life gets thrown at you and you need to make some adjustments just focus on sticking to that one non-negotiable thing for one day at a time.
My non-negotiable is always "just stay carnivore". For me that is what I need to stay on track. I try and stick to one meal a day, not include snacks, and do a 48 hour fast about once a week...but above all else, even when times are tough I just focus on staying carnivore for one day at a time.
As a community let's focus on an additional goal as well. Last round we included movement as that group goal. This round I want to focus on calling out daily wins. I think that can be a huge motivating factor to call out something specific that went really well for you that day. Write it down in a journal or post in the group.
Share your goals for the next 30 days with the group. Make sure you take some pictures for yourself today and spend some time writing down your goals and your current situation. It can be so helpful to have something to look back on.
I love this group so much and the encouragement you give each other. I am so proud of each of you and want to remind you that you can do ANYTHING for one day. I want to live a long healthy life but I can only do that by focusing on one day at a time.
If you are new then make a post on the main thread introducing yourself!
I am going LIVE tonight on Locals for Supporters at 5pm pst 8pm est. See you then!!
Cheese is good! I ate a block of chipotle oven baked cheese with lunch yesterday and it was divine. I love it, but know that it halts any progress I'm making, and will even trigger eating in excess to where I'll gain weight. It's sad but I have accepted it. If I eat it in small quantities with a meal, it's ok, but I really have to work to keep it in check.
What's your favorite cheese? How do you incorporate it? Do you see negative results when eating it?
Happy Sunday! Sharing a video today from our week, one of the highlights. This was Wednesday evening church, normally they have a more casual prayer meeting where someone plays the guitar, but they were doing some construction in the fellowship hall so they had their prayer meeting in the sanctuary. No one was there to play the piano so my my Grandma did it, she's been playing the piano in church for probably 80 years.
For context, she's 88, she had a really bad fall 5 years ago now and hit her head and ended up with a lot setbacks, similar to having a stroke. She has a lot of dementia like symptoms also (I am sure related to her Type 2 diabetes), she really can't read music anymore, and she has trouble seeing well, and she needs to wear hearing aids to hear but hates wearing them, so on this night she didn't want to wear them. My 93 (almost 94) year old grandpa takes care of both of them on their farm. Anyway, on this night she sat down on the piano and led worship as people called ...
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. 🎹🤍🖤
*Livestream Monday night at 4pm pst/7pm est
Happy Friday! I made it back from Calgary with no issues yesterday, I even got an earlier connection so I got home earlier than planned. I didn't get much sleep on this trip so definitely early to bed the next few nights to make up for it. My vertigo was a a lot better the last few days also, so I think those exercises I was doing helped. Thank you for your prayers.
How has your week been? Any temptations this weekend that you are nervous about?
Happy Friday Evening! I’m losing weight again! It took a significant decrease in calories to get moving again but I’m happy and not starving. New lowest weight recorded of 146.9!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
If I can ask for some prayers and good juju I’m going to look at two houses tonight. Fingers crossed!! I’m so tired of renting 😤
Last weekend we had a young elk buck hanging outside our cabin. It was amazing being so close to such a huge wild animal. Ironically a buddy of mine shot an elk this week and brought me a bunch of meat for my freezer. Full circle. I've never been much of a fan of game meat due to the gamey flavor. I think the ground meat and sausage will be fine but there's also a chuck roast.
What tips do any of you have for preparing it? Are you a fan of deer/elk?
