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!!
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
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 Saturday!! One thing I thought might be fun today is for everyone to share their favorite Budget meal and their favorite Bougie meal on a carnivore diet (or whatever version you eat).
"Bougie [boo-zhee, -jee] (An adjective slang): relating to or characteristic of a person who indulges in some of the luxuries and comforts of a fancy lifestyle."
For example, my favorite Budget friendly meal is just a taco bowl, ground beef with some seasonings, little shredded cheese, and sour cream. I could eat that every day and not get sick of it!!!
For my Bougie meal: A fancy American wagyu steak, usually ribeye, crab legs, and of course bread cheese! That is typically what we eat for Christmas every year. If budget didn't matter I would eat that a lot more often! 😂
What about you? What's your favorite budget meal and bougie meal?
This is a quick share of a NSV. I slipped into a pair of shorts I haven't been able to get past my thighs in several years. The shorts fit beautifully. I'm truly amazed. I haven't weighed in a while but the last time I did I was down about 4 pounds. I attribute the body change to almost 4 months of working out 4 to 5 days a week.
