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 ...
Happy Saturday!! We have a dog trainer coming to the house to work with us 2x a week for the next month, starting today. We are excited about that, Angus is doing great with commands but we want to make sure we are doing everything correctly to avoid any bad behaviors in the future.
Angus is almost all the way transitioned over to a meat/whole foods diet. We've been going slow based on how his bowels are adjusting, and just using the one bag of kibble we had originally bought. I am finding that raw eggs are giving him some diarrhea so we are slowing down on those for a bit.
It made me think about the transition to Carnivore for people as well? Did you experience the diarrhea that's common for people when they first start carnivore? Did you experience the keto flu? What symptoms did you have when you first went carnivore/keto? How long did it take for those to go away?
Why am I nervous? My baby is on her way to a blind date. An older gentleman from
Church set her up with a guy from one of his Bible studies at another church.
Hi everyone!! We are currently driving thru Indy and I am trying NOT to pay attention to the traffic. We had a lovely visit with my husband's aunt and a few of her kids came over to visit as well. She was Amish..left at some point and homeschooled all her kids who are all very successful. We also stopped by and visit his cousin who is still Amish. I really enjoyed it. While on the way home we stopped at longhorn steakhouse since we had gift cards. Two steaks and a rack of ribs...$100. Deciding to drive the 2.5hrs home to save money not getting a hotel is worth it!! I would of loved to walk around Target tho.
