New NSV today.
For the first time ever as a couple (little over a year) we went to AYCE Korean bbq and we BOTH at carnivore!
And we feel great!
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?
I love to sew and I have gotten back into sewing my own clothes. I always have to size up most of the time but this is a XL and I feel like I could of went for the large (what my actual size is). Either way the kids will love it when school starts back up. They always get a kick out of fun shirts.
We are camping this weekend which is great I feel like I need a break from well home life. I find myself actually wanting school to start for routine on my part. I just want to graze all day but during school year I never do.
The kids have VBS this week at church. So I volunteer there as well - it’s generally a very exhausting week but this year it’s not so much. Today I was also helping with a wedding shower in the afternoon so we needed to stay in town all day. I stayed away from the snack table at the shower and ended up connecting with another mom that I don’t visit with very often. She and her husband have been doing carnivore for 3 months. It was so refreshing to talk with someone in real life who understood a bit of the journey. It’s caused her to question the things she had been eating and if she really wanted to go back to them. I’m hoping I’ll be able to chat with her again soon and keep encouraging her.
