Stocked my LMNT drawer today. Kids love the raspberry and lemonade. My husband always drinks the unflavored he has 1-2 a day when it's this hot since he works construction. However, while we were on vacation he tried the lemonade and the iced tea lemonade and he loved them. Go figure! He is really starting to venture out of his comfort carnivore lifestyle I have made for him. This time last year he would of never tried anything with flavoring.
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 ...
As a person who did “keto” for July 4th (berries and almond flour) and ate amusement park food yesterday, I am here to say my body is on fire.
So…I will be starting this again.
I got 16 12-15oz steaks out of a Costco NY strip roast, ordered a walking pad, scheduled acupuncture and more somatic massage. LMNT loaded, Diet Coke stocked nor moral support.
I am writing this as a marker of how well eating carnivore is what works for me.
A bonus is my sister who is dealing with a nasty, chemo resistant cancer said she is willing to consider trying carnivore after she talks about it with her oncologist who has pushed a vegetarian diet. Please pray for her to consider trying. The longest she has done carnivore, or keto is two weeks.
The previous oncologist encouraged carnivore 3 days before scans or chemo.
Big prayers.
Thank you @kjshaw818 for sharing the video of your interview!
