Good Morning! I felt like something different today so I make some egg&bacon mini waffles...basically mini omlets. I loved them. Kids said they were "dry" but what do they know. Haha. I ate a few of these along with a couple juicy eggs. I put beef ribs in the crockpot. I think the family dinner will either be meatloaf (no grain but does have homemade pasta sauce as my 'ketchup" ) or breakfast casserole. Both are winners in this house.
Yesterday we surprised the kids and brought home a puppy!! They have been begging for one for years and we felt like the time was right to bring one home.
Meet Angus 🐕 He's a Golden Retriever/King Charles Cavalier Spaniel mix. He's 11 weeks old and currently weighs about 8 pounds, he should be around 35 pounds fully grown. I know it will be an adjustment for a while as he gets potty trained etc but we are so excited. 😂 Wish us luck! 🤪
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 ...
Sorry I missed the Live. Farm parts run an hour away plus I'm short on sleep and was rather grumpy. I did get a nap in the car (Hubs was driving.)
I'll listen tonight. Hope all is well with everyone. 🥰
I heard someone say when ask how do you just eat boring food?
I would rather eat boring food then feel bad because of the way food makes me feel physically and emotionally when I look at myself when I weigh 300#.
This hit home for me.
Happy Monday!! How was your weekend? Are you feeling great today or feeling the need for a "reset'. If you have gotten off track today is a great day to refocus, don't let yourself say "I'll just wait till the first of the month!". I have a new YouTube video that I filmed this weekend I will share with you tomorrow.
What is your non-negotiable for the week ahead?
Livestream tonight at 7pm EST! If you can't join feel free to leave questions/topics below that you want me to discuss. Have a wonderful week!
