Yesterday we surprised the kids and brought home a puppy!! They have been begging for one for years and we felt like the time was right to bring one home.

Meet Angus 🐕 He's a Golden Retriever/King Charles Cavalier Spaniel mix. He's 11 weeks old and currently weighs about 8 pounds, he should be around 35 pounds fully grown. I know it will be an adjustment for a while as he gets potty trained etc but we are so excited. 😂 Wish us luck! 🤪

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 Sunday! I THINK 🤞🏼the Locals issues are fixed. I got an app update last night and I am finally getting notifications again, and I can't see any posts cut off anymore. Let me know if you are still seeing issues. After church Chris and the kids are headed to a Diamondbacks baseball game for Nathaniel's birthday, I am staying home on puppy duty.

What are you eating today?

Hey! For those who don't know, The Cholesterol Code documentary is now streaming on Amazon. (Below is the link to it.)

This documentary talks about the new research on high LDL cholesterol in LMHRs (Lean Mass Hyper Responders) which was spearheaded by Dave Feldman, Nick Norwitz MD-PhD, and many others. I definitely recommend giving this documentary a watch if you are concerned about having high LDL levels on a low-carb diet (keto, carnivore, etc). Even if you wouldn't be considered a LMHR (>200 mg/dL LDL, >80 mg/dL HDL, and <70 mg/dL Triglycerides).

My husband and I just finished it and we loved it! It is very well made and easy to understand. My husband would be considered a LMHR and he was concerned by his very high LDL (500s) with him eating a low carb diet. We have been following this new research and have been very comforted by this documentary. We know that that my husband is doing the right things for his health and is probably not in any danger. He is not showing any signs of ...

Has anyone here watched The Official MAHA movie/documentary? When you sign up for free, they send you each episode (9 I think?) to watch for 24 hours and then it’s locked unless you purchase it. I have watched most of them and it is fascinating! They are about how sick we are and what happened- about closing homeopathic colleges years ago, the push for meds, the unhealthy foods, disease and environment… and how to manage disease and toxins. Although it’s by MAHA, I wouldn’t consider them political- just info. In the insulin chapter I recognized Ben Azadi and Ben Bikman. 😁 Dr Hyman is in it too- I know that name.
I’m actually tempted to buy to share with family members who think I’m nuts for my food and lifestyle choices.
