Good Morning Y'all!!! I had a great Life Relaunch event this weekend. Watching God transform lives is Awesome!! It is such an honor and privilege to have a front row seat as a facilitator at these events at my church. I Praise God that there are men's and women's Life Relaunch teams in many states throughout the US.
That being said I had a great weekend food wise also. I found out my Pastor's wife is eating Carnivore too. It helps me so much to have someone so close to me eating the way I am. Believe me Life Relaunch event weekends are a real challenge because we have snacks set up for the ladies. In my opinion it's a grazing table loaded with junk. I surpassed all the junk this weekend not one bite. I did have 3 breath mints because I drank coffee and when I'm praying with ladies I don't want them to smell coffee breath.
Lately I have been on a hamburger patty with bleu cheese and bacon kick. So that's what I had for lunch Saturday. I had a can of armor vienna sausages Saturday night because I was so tired. I had a protein shake Saturday morning with salted caramel equip protein powder and raw milk. Sunday I had the protein shake again. I had pulled pork with sweet baby's rays no sugar added bbq sauce. Y'all I have tried all the others and I'm just not a fan. With a 1/4 cup coleslaw. The coleslaw was a no go from the first bite. Sunday night I had pulled pork again with cheese sauce and the bbq sauce. Plus I ate 3/4 a stick of cold kerrygold butter. I did drink 2 LMNT watermelon sparkling waters one on Saturday and one on Sunday. I did drink 2 coke zero sugar. Plus I had a sugar free 7Brew coffee's Saturday and Sunday morning.
I'm feeling really good about me getting back on track. I'm thankful to God for all His blessings on me because I in my flesh am so unworthy. Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life and I am so grateful!! BLESSINGS!!
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 Sunday! Has anyone been joining the Carni-Con this weekend? It's a virtual Carnivore conference but I didn't know too much about who was speaking. They contacted us last week though and let me know they were having an awards ceremony as a part of their conference. They wanted to let me know I would be receiving the award for "Real-Life Carnivore." While I am not one for awards or recognition, I will take that title very proudly. That is all I have wanted in sharing things online is just to demonstrate how to stay Carnivore in your real life and not be discouraged by all the pressure of perfection. Not sure what other awards they are giving out, but I'll join the ceremony for a bit this afternoon. Has anyone joined any part of the conference this weekend?
Hope you have a wonderful Sunday! Livestream tomorrow, Monday. (It will be the last one for a couple weeks because I am traveling the following 2 Monday).
Happy Saturday! I am very excited for the weekend and for a slow Saturday today. Penelope and I did a little shopping yesterday after work (didn't buy much), but just had fun trying things on and singing show tunes in the car. Catching up with some things at home today, and hopefully filming some YouTube content this weekend as well. And of course eating lots of good steak.
What are your plans for the weekend? Any temptations you are looking to avoid?
