Happy Monday!! How was your weekend? How are you feeling this Monday morning?
I am going to embrace our routine this week and get more strict. Things have been more loose for me with us being here in Spain and especially over the last week with my Mom here and us traveling to Portugal so I am setting some tough goals for myself this week to get me back to baseline of feeling my best.
My goals for this week:
-I am going to focus on One Meal a Day just for this week, I have been snacking/grazing too much. I am not ready for a 48 hour fast this week but doing one meal for a week will help me flex that fasting muscle and break my snacking habit. (and help balance my weight). I can't do one meal a day long term but since I haven't been undereating at all then doing one meal for a week will be a good balance for where I am right now.
-No cheese (after our dinner out tonight), we have reservations tonight at a steakhouse with that provolone cheese I love so I'm going to enjoy that but then the rest of the week I am going to have NO CHEESE!
-No scrolling in bed at night (go to bed earlier), since it's still mid-day in the US when it's late here I have been getting staying up too late trying to get caught up on everything online so I need to cut myself off earlier and focus on getting more sleep.
Non-Negotiable for the week: Just Stay Carnivore! I'm going to work really hard on the goals I mentioned above but if something goes wrong, or I'm extra hungry and eat a second meal, I'll just focus on staying Carnivore and just keep moving forward!!
What are your goals for this week? What is the one non-negotiable thing you are going to focus on for this week?

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.

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 Tuesday!! So fun to hang out on the 2 different streams yesterday!!
One of the things that we talked about last night here in Locals was the dopamine and excitement that is created when you are looking forward to something (vacation, event, etc). It's one of the things that always keeps me motivated, having some specific event to work towards. That's why I did so well for the first few months of the year, I had several different conferences and events to keep me dialed in.
I realized in talking last night that's maybe why I've been struggling the last couple months. Yes travel makes things hard but when I am super focused that isn't an issue at all. Once all those big events I had been so hyper focused on ended I took a deep breath and "relaxed". And usually I come up with another event to motivate me but this time I didn't have anything specific to retain my focus.
I have been really proud of myself the last 2 days, but this was my reminder that I'm order to help keep ...

I only had one meal today. I went to a lunch/birthday at Santana's Mexican restaurant. I had the Santana fajitas
Beef,chicken,shrimp, and chorizo with sour cream and guacamole. I didn't eat the shells, beans, or rice. I took off most of the peppers and onions. I ate one of the grilled pineapple rings. I had a little salsa but no chips (that was tough), lol I don't know what the calories or macros are. I had a great time and enjoyed seeing everyone 😊
Hi everyone, it is good to be here today. I was able to walk downtown for some exercise this morning. I feel I could take a nap. I think my body is still adjusting to the new life. I am doing so much better than I could have imagined. I am amazed at how filling meat is!! This month I am going to really keep track of how long a grocery haul lasts me. I still have not finished the meat from last month. It is still in the freezer. Although I do need to get more bacon, eggs, beef tallow and butter. Those seem to go pretty quickly. Outside of that, I am going to take a restful day. Thank you all for being there. Look for to talking with you tomorrow.
