Courtney is sitting steady it 46 total pounds lost. I’ve been hitting the #gym pretty hard so #muscle mass gain is slowing down overall #weightloss.

Courtney and I are on #Thanksgiving break, so we’ll be hitting the local #farmersmarkets throughout the week…so no produce haul yesterday.
Still loving the #health changes we’ve been going through! Life is definitely better when you’re #healthy! -
This Weekend’s Fruit and Veggie Haul: A Visit To Our Local Roadside Produce Stand
This weekend we didn’t need any #beef #pork or #chicken …our #meat supply is good for a few days. But… we did need some #vegetables and #fruits so we headed down to our local roadside #produce stand and did a bit of #groceryshopping .
Picked up some #tomatoes of course. Gotta have my sliced #tomato with every #lunch. We also picked up some #grapes, #carrots, #onions , and other needed #supplies.
One of the best #tips we can give you as you go down your #healthyliving #journey is that #mealplanning is crucial to your success…it has been crucial to our success anyway. And having #healthy fresh fruits and vegetables is key to balanced #mealprep
That’s why we hit the #farmersmarket and #producestands. We want the freshest and most natural products…AND…we want to #supportlocal mom and pop #farms and #ranchesWe’ll see y’all at the farmers market this week! And…until next time…have a blessed day!

Today’s Farmers Market Haul (10-15-22): Spinach And Pork Chops And Squash…Oh My! Farms And Ranches!
Today we hit another wonderful Farmers Market! We just can’t get enough!!! If you’re not buying your groceries from local farmers and ranchers, you’re missing out!
People always ask, “Aren’t the veggies, fruits and meats more expensive at the farmers market than the “regular” grocery store? A little…BUT…they don’t have preservatives, processed crap, and it’s ALL NATURAL BABY!!!
PLUS…we’re not bringing home all the chips, cookies, snack cakes, and frozen pizzas that we used to bring home from the grocery store! When you take out those stupid a$$ purchases, the cost per week is the same as shopping at the big box grocery.
OH…and the meals made with all natural farm raised vegetables and grass fed beef, humanely raised pork, and free range chickens are DELICIOUS! Seriously yummy y’all!
Healthy living is a choice. And farmers markets and roadside produce stands help make that choice an easy choice to make.
See y’all at the farmers market y’all!
Until next time…have a blessed day!

PIVOT THEN LIVE IT!!!
Our new life mantra! For too long we we’re headed down a path that was leading to an unhealthy life. It was literally robbing us of precious time. Had we continued living a life of fast food, sugar, and processed foods, our life longevity would have been diminished!
We are now on s path that has us smiling more, laughing more, and enjoying all God puts in our life. We had to pivot…then live it. Nobody was going to do it for us. Where we were as it relates to health and mental focus was not where we needed to be to help God grow the kingdom.
If you’re going down a path that is unhealthy…or leaded to a job full of stress and anxiety…or is full of toxic relationships…IT MAY BE TIME TO PIVOT!
Transcript:
We all have a path that we have to follow.
The question isn’t, “Is the path hard?”
The question isn’t, “Is the path long?”
The question is, “Am I on the right path?”
That’s the question we should be asking ourselves.
It’s real easy to fall into complacency to the point where we look into the mirror and the person we see is unhealthy. The person we see is in a job that brings more stress and anxiety and it does joy and reward.
When we find ourselves stuck on a path that has us spiraling out of control and leading us to a life that’s less than what God wants for us it might be time to pivot….then head down a path that leads to a healthier lifestyle and that is far more rewarding!
“For I know the plans I have for you, says the lord. Plans for good and not for disaster. To give you a future and a hope“
If the path we are on is full of doubt fear worry and pain it’s time to pivot and head down the path God has created for each and everyone of us!
Pivot! Then Live It!
