Happy New Year!! I hope you are so excited for this new year and a new chapter! How many people are participating in World Carnivore Month? What does that look like for you this month?
What is your non-negotiable for this year? This is more than just a New Year's Resolution.... setting resolutions and goals can be motivating at first but often that motivation quickly fades. , What is the one simple thing you are going to focus on this year to help keep you on track day after day after day, even when the excitement of the new year is long gone. The goal is long term health and wellness, what is so something simple you can focus on all year to help you achieve that goal?
I an so proud of each and every one of you for last year and just showing up, even even things didn't go as planned. I cannot wait to see all you can accomplish this year!!!
Livestream Thursday at 8 pm est/ 5pm pst.
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 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. 🎹🤍🖤

Happy Wednesday!! This has been one of the most stressful craziest weeks of my entire life. I'm running on fumes at this point to be honest. This morning is the last morning of our conference and then I'm sneaking out early because today is Penelope's birthday and I'm desperately trying to get on an earlier flight home in time to see her this afternoon.
I'm sharing a few pictures from my event this week, but I'm sorry to say I have not looked at one post or read one comment since I got here on Friday. I hope you are all safe and warm. I will do my best to catch up as I'm traveling today and once I get home. I hope you all are doing really well and I know you all are here supporting each other. 💚💚
Happy Wednesday Peeps!
I still have this stinking cold but I think I have turned the corner to recovery.
I am starting a new evening routine of taking an early shower and little to no computer. I'm hoping to improve my sleep and keep from getting sick again. 4:00 a.m. still comes way too early.
Since I'm on my phone I don't know if I can get any inspiration.
Accountability
Fresh air/sunshine/sleep
Not much,and sleep was terrible.
Food
M1: coffee x2 & protein shake
M2: beef stick, cheese, yogurt w/ blueberries

Sweet dreams.
Accountability
10 min walk done 7 am
Left eye cataract surgery done, was pretty uneventful
No food or drink after midnight
Fasted from about 4 pm yesterday until 2 pm today then just wanted coffee as stomach was a bit queasy, the surgery center gave me small can of Diet Coke to take pills with lol, offered me cookies as a snack in recovery which I declined.
Finally stomach settled down around 6, wasn’t allowed to cook tonight so husband went and got wings from Zaxby’s.
Eye patch has to stay on until follow-up visit tomorrow but everything seems brighter already.
