Hey @ChrisSpath , I just watched James of Appalachia Homestead talking about his T2D reversal. I think you should interview him. Patara is his wife and mostly she is on YT but they started their new health journey several months ago and James is carnivore. He's quiet like you but I think you & he would really inspire a lot more men to jump on the wagon. Just a suggestion. 😊
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 Tuesday!! Thanks to everyone that hung out on the Livestream last night, it was fun to have a bigger group on there again. I'll stream next Monday in Locals. The topic of a "Beast Mode" challenge for May came up last night. If you are needing to kick things up a notch and have some accountability for May mention that below and we can see if there is interest. If you want to know more about a Beast Mode challenge check out the Livestream replay from yesterday.
And don't let this make you think you can WAIT to restart and just go off the rails for the next 10 days till May. Keep focusing on that non-negotiable and we'll make plans for some great goal setting for May!
Happy Monday!! How was your weekend? In honor of my birthday later this week let's have a giveaway today. I will send one of you either a new Meater, box of LMNT, and some other carnivore goodies from my house, or I'll order you 2 items of your choice directly from Equip.
