The body is weird and I cannot predict how it will react to anything these days. Early December I hit a new low of 164 lbs and I was pretty darn excited and a week later and for three weeks I bounced back up to 168 lbs, down to 167 lbs for a week and now back down to 164 lbs. I am eating fewer carbs at the moment, so maybe that accounts for the drop back down? Who the heck knows! And that my friends is why I take measurements, because they are a much better indicator of progress. Or I look at how my clothes fit. Yesterday I bought a pair of size medium Lululemon pants. A MEDIUM!!! Pretty sure I haven't worn a medium since I was in my early 20s. 😲
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. 🎹🤍🖤
*Livestream Monday night at 4pm pst/7pm est
Thinking about the year ahead can be overwhelming when it comes to goal setting. For some people, like me, short term goals can be much more motivating. Right now it's beast mode through the Meetup this Saturday. That said, I do still have long term goals for the year. Staying carnivore is just a given now as it's my life already so I have to dive a little deeper for me. I'd like to stay in the same weight range but lower my body fat a bit. Gain some muscle mass in short. Gym at least 4 times a week and beast mode at the same time is my recipe.
Steak video for interest. 🤪
Do you do better with short or long term goals?
So sorry guys, my 2 1/2 hour drive home from the cabin is turning into a 5+ hour drive home so I am not going to make it in time to Livestream tonight. I'll post the link for the Dr Berry Livestream for tomorrow when I know it. I'll catch up on posts here when I get home if you have any questions.
I’m so far behind with all the days on here so I figured I would do an update:
I’ve eaten good and not so good.
I am using carnivore as a bit of a detox leading up to wedding and honeymoon and post honeymoon, I am back into carnivore.
I’m enjoying my parents being here and mom is joining me in carnivore this week aside from some natural whole berries here and there.
Texas De Brazil was excellent last night celebrating their 44th wedding anniversary.
My dress saga is finally over, took my gown to a completely different and unrelated bridal boutique, had an amazing experince. Some alterations are being made and I pick up my dress Thursday morning. (The day before!)
Guests are starting to arrive and I am SUPER excited now my dress drama is done with.
Happy Friday Evening Family!
Mercy it was a week! And not in a great way. Work - eye roll But it's now the weekend and we'll forget about that until Monday morning.
We celebrated the Farmer's bday with Dairy Queen burgers. LOL His choice. I made up for it tonight with Surf & Turf at home.
It was another cloudy cold day but it's warm enough in the basement on the rebounder. Maybe if this had been a thing in the 80-90s I wouldn't have gained so much. 😆
Ok, I'm off to the shower and a nice long sleep! See you all tomorrow!
