Question I have been tracking for almost 2 months I have been focused on 1700 but have been checking my weekly average too. There have been some weeks where I only got in 1000 or another week I only got in 900 these were when on spring break I was not prepared and I just didnt eat because there was not carnivore foods. My sister said she would just eat but I don't want to be miserable on vacation so it scares me to just eat whatever when there is no other food available.
I also want to know if this inconsistent weekly averages are what is messing with my weight loss? I am in maintenance calories do I go to deficit calories or stick to maintenance until I am consistently meeting my average of 1700?
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 ...
Happy Monday!! I am still in Las Vegas, checking out some venues today and flying home this evening. I had an amazing steak and some incredible grilled shrimps last night for dinner. How was your weekend?? What is your non-negotiable for this week?
Livestream here in Locals for Supporters this week on Thursday at 7pm est.
Happy Sunday!! Thankfully I had a little downtime yesterday in Vegas and I was able to get a video filmed, I'll share it with you in a couple days. Today I am going to catch up with a friend who lives here before I have to get some work done. We were trying to think of things to do today outside of just going out to eat. We laugh because it's so hard to think of things to do to hang out and socialize that don't center around food. In the end we settled on just going for a walk, either outdoors or at the gym on the treadmills next to each other just depending on how the weather is. I'm sure we'll go get lunch at some point, but we just kept laughing that everything we thought of was just about where to go eat. But really that's how our society is, we spend time and socialize with people by eating!
What is your favorite way to hang out with friends or family and socialize that doesn't center around food?
