Beast Mode Challenge Day 3!
It was so good to be home and have a family lunch yesterday, of course a delicious steak! Today we are going to mostly take it easy, play lots of games, but we are going to Fogo de Chao for lunch (I have a coupon they sent me for my birthday and we have some gift cards). Sunday I am volunteering at church and then we'll have family lunch, probably a steak from Walmart, and play games all afternoon. Because those will be 2 large lunches I'll just eat one meal a day the next 2 days. ❤️❤️ A slow weekend is exactly what I need right now!
What are your plans for the weekend?
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. 🎹🤍🖤

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 forgot to include this in my morning post but let's do a Livestream Monday evening for supporters here in Locals.
5pm PST/ 8PM EST.
I am traveling next week for work so I will stream again this Friday night at the same time. It will be good to hang out a couple times early in this Beast Mode Challenge to keep momentum going!
Beast mode check in. This is my beast mode fasting for Mon-Sat. I’ve lost 8 lbs: hubby lost 5. I’ve read the Dr Fung/Megan Ramos book, Life in the Fasting Lane, TWICE this week.
Stopping in quick before I go clean the basement bathroom. My life is so exciting sometimes!
Thrilled this morning to find I'm down 4lbs! Now I know most of that was probably water weight due to the junk I was eating last month and now am not, but whatever the reason, it gave me renewed enthusiasm.
Cleaning and piddling around the house today. It's too muddy to do much outside and the Littles did not come out.
Oh and I got some good sleep last night, FINALLY. 10:30-8:30. It was so needed. Hoping to get close to the same amount tonight and a nap tomorrow. That should top off my sleep tank.
We are going back to the rodeo tonight. We're not really horsey people but since our best friends' sil is the coach and they are like family to us, we are supporting our "extended family" as he is rebuilding the rodeo program at UNL. Celebrity watching, got to see Larry the Cable Guy, the Governor of Nebraska, Coach John Cook (UNL Volleyball coach) close by our seats. And don't worry if you don't ...
