Are you a Carrot, Egg, or Coffee Bean?

My boss shared this with me today. Of course before I read it, I said I was a coffee bean, based on my fondness of BPC. I felt my choice did hold true, though there's a little bit of egg going on there too :)

Wanted to share it with you all, in case you hadn't seen if before.

    I'm probably a combo of all depending on the situation but I'd like to be coffee. haha

    I think we all probably have a mix of all three. I've learned through the years to try to be more like the coffee, easier said than done. I like thinking about it in this way though because it's a simple reminder that you can change your situation by how you react to it. Its especially helpful for me when I'm having really rough days trying to get back into low carb and keto.

    Apparently, egg. And I'm ok with that.

    In all honesty, yeah, I have a bit of all three. It depends on the situation. (Notice I said "I like to think I'm a coffee bean," honest but nice-sounding response.) ;)

    @Mami1976D I know exactly what you mean, on my best days I'm coffee, but most of the time I'm a mix of carrot and egg.

    A mixture, probably egg, then coffee bean, then carrot. I have a tendency to 'turtle', withdraw and put up walls to help myself. Sometimes the coffee though.
