    Changing up the photos… We are proud meat eaters 🥩🥩🥩 in our house… This Picanha was divine last night! So easy to prepare and quite lean. Delish!

    @Chapter_3 you have my attention. Smoker? Oven? Grill? Sous Vide? Spices?

    this is a 3.5lb Picanha. I can honestly say this is the easiest piece of meat I have ever prepared! I dry brined (salt only) for 1/2 day and took it out the fridge around 3:30. Preheat oven to 275° …. At 5:00pm, I added pepper and dried oregano all over it! Put in oven for 25-30 minutes. Instant read thermometer at 110 to 115. Take out and tent with foil… let rest while oven is set to 500. Once oven hits 500, switch to broil. Broil for 7-12 minutes… 10 inches from flame watching closely. Let sit 5-10 minutes before slicing. I like to slice in 1” to 1.25” increments… Last night we enjoyed with fresh chimichurrri sauce…Seriously, it is the BEST! You can skip eating the fat but that’s the best part. My nutrition plan is primarily P and F with very few carbs.

    @Chapter_3 thanks. If I expect DW to help me eat it, the internal temp will need to be at least 129. And yes, for me there would be no trimmings left on the plate.

    @judefit1 you are adapting and adjusting. I know your thought patterns personally. Mental gymnastics - I’m with you! ❤️ the one day plan!

    @Skyleen75 You are a fighter and will WIN this round! My ceiling (or floor) is 129. Every time I hover, it’s BOING! I’m with you on this fight! Now, to only get there and CHARGE /BUST through it! This IS the MENTAL side of this journey!

    @quiltingjaine @_JeffreyD_
    I use Pinterest for most recipes. @_JeffreyD_ there is a traditional Brazilian recipe that involves the grill. Looks delicious. Believe that way will allow you to cook several skewers medium rare, and several skewers well done. (Or ruined in my book!) 🤣 whatever your fancy. The next time we have Picanha, I’ll go this route because it looks like a fun journey to heaven.

    @Chapter_3 yes, well done is ruined.

    @_JeffreyD_ HAHA I'm so sorry for sending you down the rabbit hole! There is so much content out there that it's really easy to deep dive. When finding out I'm 9 I also learned I'm "wing 1" which is fitting--I've always been a rule follower, for better or for worse. DH is type 8 - the challenger - and after he finished the test he literally came back to the room to report his results and said "this is bullsh*t" :D

    @Chapter_3 what is your type?!

    Yes please a REALLY BIG ROCK!!!

    This might work :)

    @pezhed don't get me started on enneagram....I am a 5 which means I will spend an hour on this again today. https://www.enneagraminstitute.com/type-5/

    DW is a 1 ... https://www.enneagraminstitute.com/type-1/

    @_JeffreyD_ @pezhed
    I am equally a 1 (perfectionist) and a 4 (Individualist) :) ~ it does explain a lot :)

    ude,

    12/16: OMG, I almost forgot to post today, 2 days short of a full year. What's happening to me? I worked crazy straight hours, didn't work out and then nearly forgot to post.... I need to get back on track here!

    “ude”
    I thought for a minute you were slipping away one letter at a time

    And I have gotten lazy with my posts, too. However I have to add that I have been sleeping a little later.

    @Chapter_3 - That dish looks like a fine restaurant presentation! You could go into business with that. We are NOT big beef eaters but I'd be tempted. (DH is a heart patient, I have no gallbladder).

    @astroamy - Yep, you are getting within 15% of goal weight. Stalls are part of the journey. I figure it lets your body and your people get used to the new size. And the extra-steps-mentality is a great way to spin any inconvenience. It changes a slog into an opportunity!

    @everyone - This enneagram thing looks intriguing. I've heard of it before but never decided which type I belonged. Definitely a rabbit hole. But it seems like we all use different mind-sets to losing weight. ¡Qué interesante!

    @Skyleen75 - I love all those classes. I may try to fill in my former early-morning walking hours with some barre or other classes.
