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 ...
Just taking a moment today to remember the brave men and women who gave everything for our country. Their courage and sacrifice made it possible for us to enjoy the freedoms we have today, and I’m truly grateful.
To all the fallen heroes, their families, and the veterans who carry that weight, thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
This Memorial Day, I’m choosing to live with more gratitude and kindness in honor of what they gave us. Let’s never take it for granted.
Wishing you all a meaningful day. 🇺🇸
Happy Saturday! This weekend always feels like the start of summer. Most schools in Arizona ended yesterday, lots of graduations happening, the weather is warming up in most places. The best part of the summer is that the Meat Sales are back!! 😂
Are the schools getting out in your area? Any good meat sales happening this weekend? Post all the meat pictures this weekend!!
We are in Las Vegas currently and had been having a good time. My husband and I fasted today before going to Fogo de Chao for dinner. I fell while walking in and it seems I had a POTS episode. It was bad. I recovered quickly after eating and ate a Brazilian cheese role to keep my eyes open and continue to sit upright.
I knew we should have gotten patties from In-n- Out earlier in the day. Boo.
I do think not drinking Diet Coke throughout the day was not helpful.
I am having extreme difficulty walking but I really don’t want to go to a hospital. I ordered kinesio tape and hope that will be enough to get me home. I had (PRP/BMAC) surgery on the knee one year ago. I have EDS so I had really been thrilled with the result and strength I have gained over the last year.
The photo below is just before we walked in. Healing prayers are appreciated!
