Happy Friday!! I am very excited for a long weekend off work with Monday being Memorial Day. I know for many people school ended this week also. Does this weekend feel like the start of summer for you? Since we homeschool and got a later last fall we'll probably keep doing school for a while longer but we kind of just go year round and take breaks when we want.
We drove up to the cabin last night to avoid the holiday traffic today. Our plan is to stay until Tuesday or Wednesday, it's in the 70s here while it's over 100 back in Phoenix. We already spent the evening playing games and went for a long family walk together. Looking forward to lots of family adventures this weekend.
Do you get a long weekend? 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.
Laura's out of town this week for work so that's when i usually have some struggles due to being bored and not having my accountability partner around. This week is a bit different since the kids are both doing summer camps so I'm busy running them all over town, doing my jiu jitsu classes and a few chores. Staying busy is so helpful for avoiding those temptations. Tomorrow I'm going to stop in to wild fork and stock up on some meats and spend the rest of my time being productive. I know a lot of us have been struggling with this lately so share your best tips to avoid temptations that others can put in their toolbox?
Wild Fork has all kinds of meats, even exotic type stuff. What's something different you all have tried and recommended I try?
Happy Wednesday!
I was at the river last week for a few days. It was a lot of fun and beautiful. We have a good setup in our car which is pretty comfortable. However I was in the pool and outside so didn't have my phone on me most of the time.
It seems like a lot are doing really well and a lot may be struggling. I did eat a few things off plan if I am being honest but nothing crazy. I am ready to get my head back into the game 100%. I don't have anything coming up or anything to shoot for. What I want is to just feel my absolute best and that is what I am working for. I want to do it for me ❤ I am not trying to drop this amount of weight in this amount of time. It will all about just being 100% Carnivore with dairy occasionally but probably rare. No snacking!! I also want to start getting up a little earlier to have more quiet time with God. Going to take it one day at a time! Hope everyone is having a great week!
