We had such a good time yesterday at the Healing Humanity event. Chris did such a good job on his talk, very proud of him. It's always so fun to meet so many people in real life. The dinner after at the Brazilian steakhouse was chaos but very fun! I didn't get many pictures so if anyone else got some feel free to post them. I shared pictures from some of the other people that spoke.
Today we are going to church and then after that I am going to try and do NOTHING for the rest of the day. I had a really long week at work and just need one day of rest before this busy upcoming week. My Mom also flies home early this morning and is going back to snowstorms so please send her some warm prayers for safe travels. Anything we can be praying for you for today?
*Reminder the Livesream this week will be Thursday evening.
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 Sunday!! Excited for a fun family day today! Church this morning with my Mom, then we'll come home to have a great late lunch, maybe get in the pool this afternoon. For lunch we are grilling steaks and chicken (grilled veggies for P), and I will probably make some bread cheese!
What are you eating today? Keeping it simple or having a big Sunday feast?
I will for sure do a Livestream tomorrow (Monday) for supporters at my usual time of 7pm est.
Happy Saturday! My Mom arrived safely yesterday and we had a fun time visiting and catching up. She was here when we first brought Angus home but hasn't been back since, so he was extra excited about a new person in the house! Today P, my Mom, and I are going to see Les Mis (which is my Mom's favorite musical). Plus you know Chris will be cooking us all lots of good meat this weekend!
What are your plans for the weekend?
Good Evening Y'all!! This is Life Relaunch event weekend for me. I haven't had time to log my food today. But here's what I ate:
Breakfast was a protein shake made with 1 scoop equip salted caramel protein powder and 20 ounces of raw milk.
I ate almost 2 lbs of bacon.
Lunch was an 8 ounce burger patty with some bleu cheese on it.
Dinner was a can of Armour vienna sausages. Not the best thing to eat. However our smoked chickens my husband is smoking didn't get done in time for dinner.
I also drank lots of water. Had a 7 brew sugar free coffee this morning. Plus drank a coke zero sugar. Also drank a watermelon sparkling LMNT. I feel pretty good about today.
Life Relaunch weekends take a lot out of me. So if I can eat lots of stuff a drink a couple sugar free drinks a day during it. I call that a win.
