Happy Friday!! Hope you are having a great week! We had planned to go up to the cabin this weekend but decided to just stay home and take it easy after our chaotic week. It's Mother's Day weekend here in the US, any fun Mother's Day plans? What are your weekend plans? Will this be a tempting holiday for you?
Hopefully you can come chat on the Livestream later.
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.

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.
Upgraded the air fryer since mine died...my son is testing it out with Laura's meatballs. It is kid approved! 😂
I have been listening to podcasts and found The Fasting Method one by Dr. Jason Fung. This one has some interesting information and some really good points. One I heard today, " There are things that are uncomfortable with fasting, but they are worth what you get in trade from fasting". I managed a 25 hour fast last week and am going to focus on getting two 24 hour fasts in this week. I notice that when I am planning to fast, I worry about the food I have and that I don't want it to go bad before I can eat it....I cooked a pot roast yesterday and I keep thinking, " I need to eat that before it goes bad" Well...no, I don't. I have a freezer that I can throw it in so that doesn't happen. So, I have no excuses now 😁
