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!!
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 apparently I accidentally contributed to an April fool's prank afterall because I thought all day yesterday it was Tuesday, I even had Tuesday on my morning post. 🤦🏼♀️
So happy Thursday today!! This is Easter weekend, one of my favorite holidays!! @Lauren24 made a post yesterday asking what everyone is eating/cooking for Easter. I thought it might be helpful to make a big thread about that today. What will be your approach to food this weekend? How are you going to keep yourself on track? Any meal ideas or recipes to share??
I honestly don't know what we will be eating yet so I need some ideas too!!
Devil tried to get me today....all day long he kept whispering...hey you want a cookie! You could have several cookies and no one would know! There is candy hid in the house...you could enjoy some. I chose not to listen!! I enjoyed and large burrito breakfast bowl then about a HR later a nice steak. I wanted to feel stuffed so that way I could say...I am not hungry. I feel very full that I would probably get sick. That's just the thing I know all the soy in those products would make me literally sick. The devil even tried to convince me to bake my own cookies so that way there would be no soy. But I prevailed and currently walking around town while my sons a baseball practice. Tomorrow is Good Friday and now it will be just that!
Happy April 1st!! No April Fool's pranks from me, life is crazy enough already! 🤪😂 It's a fantastic day to set some new goals and get focused for the month ahead. I know we have Easter this weekend, but no other holidays this month. It will hopefully be a good month to build some momentum going into summer. How are you feeling? Pumped and ready to go? Or anxious and frustrated??
What is your Non-Negotiale for April?
