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.
Happy Saturday! Today is a whirlwind day as we prep to leave tomorrow, Penelope is at church camp and the rest of us are packing/cleaning. I love coming home from a trip to a clean house. I filmed a video yesterday about some lab work you should check, I will get that edited today also.
Overall my blood work appt was pretty "meh", not a lot of changes since I first started seeing her about a year ago. Nothing major going on but still just some hormone levels that are low and my thyroid is all lower than 'optimal'. Mind you it's all "within normal range" but definitely not where I want them to be. My naturopath is wondering if there is an underlying chronic infection (like Lyme, CIRS, etc), those can be pretty common for people who feel best on Carnivore long term. Something we will likely test for in the a couple weeks. I'll keep you posted and I can go into more detail when we Livestream next.
What are your plans for the weekend?
Happy Saturday!
I went and played my first round of golf at a par 3 course. It was fun and I didn't feel like I did to bad! Hope you all are having a great weekend so far❤
Good night almost morning.
I have been eating cheese like a mouse. Coffee, cheese and finally a ribeye at texas roadhouse with my son today. I'm definitely out of my routine.
Its been almost a year since I saw him (my son) last time. He is finally working full-time. I'm hoping he finally decides to be a nurse and goes back to school. But if he doesn't, well, God will do what he does best and guide him to where God needs him to be. He is a good kid, just a late bloomer. Lost in this new world with the internet, AI and the algorithms that provide bad information. He is not alone. He is with his giant dog, but I really wish for him to be closer to me.
I'm with him tonight and feeling nostalgic. The pictures are him and me and his giant dog drinking water from the pool 🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️. He did cut his hair. It was way messier than that.
I hope you all had a wonderful night.
