Hi Kim, I had slight difficulties hitting 250g of carbs on my carb nites which is a shocker to me. Before Christin my carb nites were out of control. But somehow if you time the spikes you are less inclined to eat more (at least for me). Next carb nite I'm switching to denser treats. As for the bread, yes it's so not to…

Carb nite last night, did better with my macros and spikes. Made a low carb cake with coconut flour but It came out too crumbly and it turns out Arturo don't like things that taste too coconuty. Been lagging on my garden and I've got to some seedling out of the greenhouse to the beds.

My total macros for CN is 2200-2400K CHO 250-300 Protein will vary but make sure I get at least 90 These macros are base on my bodyfat and lifestyle, everybody is different
-
Kevin, agree with the ladies, that's too low. Susan, congrats on your weight loss. Kim,I was just asking Christin that same question about Carb nite and she says consistence is key. I did my first carb nite and I am about to have my 2nd carb nite. However, I'm still at the same weight range, (hence the question to…

Kim and my fellow Fat2Fit pals, I don't do social media but I might be missing out on some health tips. What are some people you follow on twitter that doles out good content? Arturo is coming home today. Yay! He was in Mississippi attending a SOTG course. Had my first CN per Christin's macro. It was just ehh. I wasn't…

My personal experience and advice and I'm not knocking cross fit, is to shop around and find someone very qualified. Since crossfire has gotten popular, a lot people with no business in running a crossfit gym have been setting up gyms. If you have old injuries know your limitations and the difference between pushing…

Rendered lard and made pastured pork chicharrones!!!

Oh Carol, what city in CA is the conference?
-
Carol, Ramble away, love reading your posts.Thank you for your kind words. I did cry when I got back into the house not a full blown cry fest but a short, quiet cry. And as predicated, he has adjusted quickly in his new home. So much attention was given to him and with 4 kids he'll have no shortage of playmates. It the…

Will response more later but I just want to post this adorable picture to Prometheus kitten adoption season. This picture is all kinds of cute! They are called purritos

Jen, that is great that you have easy access to good meat. Didn't mean to get all technical with the wording. It's just that I'm seeing a trend of companies putting "organic" on products and overcharging things! Let us know if you feel a difference eating pastured meat. I'm very curious :smile:
-
Jen, its not just "organic" The feed can be organic but the animals are still raised in a high stress environment and thus affect the meat as well. I would rather buy pastured meat that doesn't use certified organic feed than buy certified organic meat, because if a farmer is raising his animals on a pasture chances are he…
-
Kim, Great progress pictures! Its not a "before/after" but a before/during" It still showed how far you have come even though you still have more to go to reach your goal. John, I read your speech and it is very well written. I feel that it is a perfect length. Kris, sorry about your gain, :/ a few of us had gained weight…
-
My pork is finally ready!! Yay, super excited, half of a pastured pig with a final hanging weight of 105lb. And I get the organs and half of a head!! I was told I might not be able to so I'm pretty happy that it all worked out. So... Anybody know what to do with a pig's head? I only know how to prepare the ears, jowls and…
-
John and Kim thanks for the recommendations, I'll check those out. Susan why so many eggs? Try other low carb veggies or else you'll get so sick everything. I like Bok Choy, turnips, radish, cabbage, Brussels sprouts and rutabaga. Yay! carb nite! Did you do the 10 days induction? I love pork rinds, but I gotta watch my…
-
Kim, thank you so much! Very awesome and Holy **** that's a huge difference. She looks good in both of them but hells yea the purple dress is leaner. I would love to hear her story on her body io. Or carol's podcast wink wink. If she is willing to of course lol. She is 46 and has a what seems like a very doable routine,…

Completely non health subject: Today I see the leftover wolf traits in all my huskies. With the addition of a puppy my dogs and the fosters "packed up" like wolfs and proceed to inspect and teach the puppy were he is at status wise amongst the pack. Taiki the pup knew all the submissive cues and did great. But it made the…

John, I've know the benefits of meditation but it's so wonderful to hear that it works for someone who had been through so much. Man I tried But I still don't know how to meditate and sometimes those sleep hypnosis/meditation videos works but I have yet learn the technique of quieting your mind. Sometimes at night I…
-
Susan, I agree with what Kim is saying. Sometimes less is more. Case in point: last year I was trying to lose fat doing CNS and I was doing 4-6 sessions of Muay Thai a week and running 4X a week. I stalled it wasn't until I slowed down that I started to see result. Can you train and still lose fat? Yes, but you have to be…
-
TJ, hey it's a slip up. What's most important is that you own up and is back on track. Isn't processed carbs crazy? It's like crack once you have some you want more. And hooray for your weight loss! Keep doing the "whole TJ" Sbuzzard I've just re started carb nite. Here's the "puppy" with the bad leg that we are fostering.…
-
Carol, Thanks for the comment on the pups. but I was thinking the same about your life. I don't know how you can manage work, kids, school, podcasts, health and just daily stresses that comes with your busy life. whew. The pups are a walk in the park. ;) But we all have different limitations and what we perceive as "work".…
-
Jen look forward to the videos! We are taking in a 2 month husky puppy that has a bad leg. The vet thinks that he had an injury when that was never treated and the bone is growing in all wrong. We usually don't take puppies because they are a lot of work but the shelter is over its limit (as usual) and the puppy needs to…
-
Listen to Carol, she's been to many TM. Like I said my insight is from doing sports not TM. ;) And $12 bike shorts? Great price. Kim, how long does the vivobarefoot last? I've been wearing Merrell for a few years now and although I love them but they wear out too fast. Jen, LMAO on the armor comment. Kelly, That is…
-
Carol, great show! Learned new things. Good questions!! I like the clarification on fruits. It's too bad that the recording of TJ and you got deleted. And I appreciate you doing these podcast even though you are insanely busy! Keep up the good work! But try to rest and sleep more as well. John, let me know how the shoe…

Oh I got sidetracked.. I just realized that since I spend so much time in the kitchen prepping things I can easily incorporate standing exercise when I'm not holding a knife of course lol. So here I am in the kitchen typing this and doing leg raises while staring at the big bucket of lemon balm that I had harvested that is…
-
Carol I think I might be fine with certain courses. I've never seen on up close so who knows maybe Vegas won't be "as muddy" lol have you ever done a TM in CA? Jen, thanks for your comment! Very encouraging! As for using clothes as a barometer I second that! I use the scale but I'm not really that bothered by the number…
