Here we go, the first weekend of World Carnivore Month! Are you nervous or worried about temptations? What are your plans for the weekend and how are you ensuring you will stay on track?
Today we have the Healing Humanity event Meat-Up, hoping to see some familiar faces. 🥰 I will try and get some pictures to share later today!
Have a wonderful weekend!!
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. 🎹🤍🖤

Spent the weekend with my California buddies up north snowboarding. Proud that I stayed on point. We stopped at a bar after and you can see my meal and there's haha. I stuck with the wings, while they had nachos. The best part was later that night I got to cook some steaks for them. Their reaction was "this is the best steak I've ever had". Granted, it was American wagyu sirloin cap, but I nailed the cook perfectly. I've grown a passion for perfection when it comes to the meat I cook. It feels good to get these reactions.
When you cook for people, do you knock there socks off? Has cooking became a passion for you?
Two days in a row… nothing but black coffee and unflavored LMNT in water and plain water in the morning. I broke my fast at 1:30. I probably should have eaten sooner because I got really tired. I only ate 4 cheese and sausage balls and more water. Got home and ate some ground beef and bacon chips. Watched grandkids for an hour and then ate two scrambled eggs in butter and a coffee with cream, salted caramel LMNT and collagen powder. Feeling much better after that. I’m going to try again tomorrow, but will have a flavored LMNT in sparkling water around 10:00 to see what it does to my blood sugar. Yesterday and today it started out around 105-107 in the morning and then slowly dropped to 85-93 and stayed steady all afternoon and evening.

A little nauseousness last night after having those flanken ribs last night and digestive upset this afternoon. I think the fat from the ribs may have gotten me! Still holding strong on no sugar though.
