Accountability post: My non negotiable for September was to post my macros every day and I made it. 🙂. By tracking macros, I learned a lot. For instance, todays macro show 22 carbs but they are from protein powder and dairy. Time to fine tune what I eat. On to October!
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 Monday!! How was your weekend? Can you believe we are halfway through August already!? We had a great weekend, mostly just hanging out and playing games. I have a couple days at home and then leave on Wednesday for my work trip. We also have a plumber and contractors coming today to hopefully finish up the leak issues we've been having. Hoping we have 2 toilets again by the time I get back n🙏🏼
What is your non-negotiable for this month?
Come hang out tonight at 7pm EST and chat on the Livestream if you are wanting to get focused and motivated for the week ahead.
Happy Saturday!! I am so excited that we have no plans this weekend! 😂 Its been a super busy week (coming back from WV, Healing Humanity event, and the Fogo media night), and then next week starts my crazy couple months of work travel, so I am excited for a couple lazy days before the chaos begins. Getting my nails done and church but other than that just hanging out and playing games with the kids. What are your plans for the weekend?
I will Livestream here in Locals on Monday evening before I leave for my trip.
Weekly average was good 1700. When you do a fast do you keep your calories around 1700 and then fast and your weekly average is still 1700 or you do the fast to get your calories down for your average? Does that make sense I am confused about where you want your calories at? So like if I eat 1700 all week then fast Sunday that might drop my calories down to 1500 is that what I want to be doing?
