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.
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 ...
**Well my post was about being sleep deprived and I just realized I had scheduled it to go live on the wrong day 🤪🤦🏼♀️. Sorry!!
Happy Friday!! How is your week going? I am so glad it's almost the weekend. With the time change, getting up an extra hour early everyday, plus puppy schedule, has been very exhausting.
My hope for this weekend is just to get a lot of rest, as much as I can with a puppy. 😂 We are having a lot of fun with Angus, and he naps a lot so hopefully I can take a couple naps this weekend.
What are your plans for the weekend?
On a road trip and realizing road trips make me want to snack. So far a few carnivore snax (did NOT eat the whole bag 😉), some chicken salad and cheese.
Friday Morning, March 13th, 2026.
I didnt post accountability for yesterday as I was feeling super terrible by evening. But here I am, and after some honest reflection, I am realizing that because I have been feeling so crummy off and on for the past month that I have become really weak towards carby comfort foods. I believe it's is likely a self-perpetuating cycle and that I need a better plan (and a stronger resolve) if Im going to break the cycle.
This morning I planned out food for today and logged it into Carb Manager. As long as I eat what is there I will be ok. (Pictured)
If I wind up eating more, as long as it is carnivore, I will call it a win.
I have another very full couple of days ahead. Prepping for a huge day tomorrow: 2 studio sessions tomorrow morning followed by a Bridal Show about an hour from home in the afternoon. It seems a little crazy to have scheduled it all the same day, but we are putting together an ad for our Motherhood sessions for Mother's Day and its time ...
