Good morning and Happy Saturday! @ChrisSpath I fasted for 14 hrs from last night until just now. Took my blood sugar and ketone test on my new keto Mojo. BS was 122 and Ketones were 0.4. A little high right? Could this be because I was fasting, and/or I’m still pre diabetic? I’m going to test again in 90 minutes to see if my coffee with hwc affects me.
Cheese is good! I ate a block of chipotle oven baked cheese with lunch yesterday and it was divine. I love it, but know that it halts any progress I'm making, and will even trigger eating in excess to where I'll gain weight. It's sad but I have accepted it. If I eat it in small quantities with a meal, it's ok, but I really have to work to keep it in check.
What's your favorite cheese? How do you incorporate it? Do you see negative results when eating it?
Happy Sunday! Sharing a video today from our week, one of the highlights. This was Wednesday evening church, normally they have a more casual prayer meeting where someone plays the guitar, but they were doing some construction in the fellowship hall so they had their prayer meeting in the sanctuary. No one was there to play the piano so my my Grandma did it, she's been playing the piano in church for probably 80 years.
For context, she's 88, she had a really bad fall 5 years ago now and hit her head and ended up with a lot setbacks, similar to having a stroke. She has a lot of dementia like symptoms also (I am sure related to her Type 2 diabetes), she really can't read music anymore, and she has trouble seeing well, and she needs to wear hearing aids to hear but hates wearing them, so on this night she didn't want to wear them. My 93 (almost 94) year old grandpa takes care of both of them on their farm. Anyway, on this night she sat down on the piano and led worship as people called ...
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. 🎹🤍🖤

Happy Saturday! I made it to Madrid, it was a very long trip but I am happy to be here. I traveled here with one of my co-workers and after a nap she and I are going to a spa to try and shake off the jet lag. 😂 Tomorrow too is mainly just a day to adjust before we start work on Monday. I am excited to do a lot of walking around the city and enjoy the beautiful weather.
What are your plans for the weekend?
Happy Friday, I am leaving early this morning to head to Madrid for the next week. Please send me some prayers for my travel, and for Chris and kids to get along okay while I am gone.
I filmed a quick video last night before I left today. I will keep posting while I am traveling but it may take me a bit longer to respond Chris is here an I know you all are here for each other as well!
