Okay I never ask this (and normally I don't care), but this is my first video working with Thrive as a sponsor so I would love for it to have good reactions. If you watched my Fridge/Freezer video and liked it can you go give it a Thumbs up please and even possibly put a comment (not about Thrive just in general). Please 🙏🏼❤️
That kind of stuff early on definitely helps videos be recommended more and can help with views overall.
Thanks!!!
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 Friday! If you are on Instagram and saw my stories you'll know that we had an insane 24 hours yesterday. Long story short, as we were going to bed last night we realized we had a pipe burst inside the wall and our whole bedroom floor was flooded. It was the pipe behind the toilet in our master bathroom. We turned the water off overnight and thankfully we were able to get a plumber out in the morning to fix the leak. After all our recent issues with the other leak (in the same bathroom) and all the mold issues, we are getting a full remediation company out here to do some water removal and clean up. Unfortunately it's going to be a long process and take several weeks until we get our bedroom and our toilet back. 😭😭
Oh and another fun discovery, a nest of EMPTY reptile eggs was found behind the wall when they went to repair the leak. 🤢
I'll tell you what that even as long as I've been eating this way, there is nothing I wanted more yesterday than to just eat my ...
Happy Thursday! Saw this great post yesterday from the amazing Ben Bikman. The best way to lower and maintain stable blood sugars is to focus on building muscles. Body weight exercises at home for a few mins a day is a great way to get started. If you are looking to lower your blood sugar numbers, one of the best things you can do is go for a 10-15 mins brisk walk after a meal. It doesn't have to be super fast, but make it a brisk pace to burn that glucose. And yes this is helpful even with eating carnivore.
As I am learning this year, working out doesn't have to mean hours at the gym daily. Doing these 10-15 min walks and body weight exercises a couple times a day can make a huge difference.
Are you doing this currently? What is your current daily movement?
Good Morning Y'all!! I haven't posted in a few days. I'm still eating good. Getting ready for a Life Relaunch event this weekend. Got my food prepped. Hard boiled eggs, bacon, tuna salad, Pork King Good Ranch pork rinds, and chomps, lmnt watermelon sparkling water, and water.
So here's the current situation at my house. Our refrigerator went out a while back and we sent it to the repair shop. Got it back and it worked for about 5 weeks. So we had to go refrigerator freezer shopping. We wanted just a refrigerator but couldn't justify paying $3,500 for a refrigerator that probably wouldn't last 5 years, because that's how long our other one lasted. They don't make appliances like they use too. Anywho we found a refrigerator freezer that we liked, but in order to get it in our house we needed a new front door. Which we needed a new front door anyway, but wasn't expecting this to be the way we got it. So my amazing husband worked this past weekend to get the area prepped to take the old ...
