Happy Wed! We have one week till Christmas!! Chris and I sharting thinking about what we want to eat for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. We always do the same thing on Christmas Day but Christmas Eve tends to vary year over year. I will share our menu plan below...what are you planning to have for Christmas Eve and/or Christmas Day meals? I want to make sure I am not missing any good ideas? 😂
Christmas Eve: My favorite meal: Skirt steak, chicken things, and shrimp on the griddle (all like fajitas).
Christmas Day: Fancy Steaks (from Costco 😂) and crab legs/shrimp. We'll also do a little meat/cheese tray appetizer at some point too.
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 Tuesday!! How was your weekend? We're you able to stay on track and make the choices you planned? Regardless today is a new day, and we have just under a week left in May so don't fall into the trap of "I'll just wait and restart on June 1st". You can still end the month focusing on your beast mode goals!
In our few days left of our Beast Mode month of May, what is your non-negotiable to help you finish the month strong?
Hello family. I had one of the worst weekends of my life. I'm still carnivore and as of now fasted over 48 hrs. I'm very sick with some kind of sinus infection that is affecting my ears and with a cough.
And our oldest son and DDIL are separating due to his actions.
Our hearts are broken but we are not without hope.
I'm sure this revelation made my illness worse.
If you prayer warriors would put our family on your list, we'd appreciate it.
I'll try to be around but I need to heal both physically and emotionally and need some time alone with my Father.
Hugs 😞💔
I made the beef. Butter. Bacon and eggs like the true carnivores eat. Such as Emma. I crisped up the beef like they specify. It was so good and so filling! I cooked the bacon first in a flat iron pan. Drained grease. Cooked eggs in same pan scrambled. Then cooked 75/25 till crispy and salted. Put butter on top of my combined bowl. Yum!
