The Beard of Reason

  • After much thought and contemplation, I decided to shave my beard.

    Needless to say, my family was shocked. I almost forgot what I looked like underneath all that hair.

    I now need to find a new online username I guess.

You look great! Bet summer will feel amazing... Also, take up guitar and sing your thoughts and contemplation on shaving your beard: The Bard of Reason.

  • What do you do when you’ve been doing everything right and your weight loss has stalled?

    A plateau can be so frustrating, especially when you feel like your doing what you should – or what has always worked in the past.

    It helps to switch things up and try something new. I gathered some tips to help us out. Please share your own ideas!

    1. Do more strength training. More lean muscle boosts your metabolism and it doesn’t leave you as famished as a high-intensity cardio workout.

    2. Start measuring your portions. Overtime we can loosen our estimation of our portions and need a serving-size refresher.

    3. Try eating more! As you progress and workout more, your body actually needs more (healthy) food to burn calories.

    4. Add lean protein to every meal and snack. Protein will keep you full longer and may actually help lower your calorie intake for the day.


    Share below if you’ve hit a plateau or if you’re going to use one of these tips to ramp up your weight loss! Add your own tips too!

Alternatively zero carb works. High fat high protein helps break through

Unfortunately I starve myself until the scale moves. I know it is so unhealthy!

Having a really hard day. Having my parents live with me has its ups and downs. Today watching how much my dad declines on a daily basis and on top of it my husband has left me. 2024 has started off so hard and having this group is going to help me stay true to who I want to be and a better version of myself. I would love to crawl in bed and cry all day.

I'm sorry to hear about your personal struggles with your parents, but you're doing the right thing helping them because you're a kind, generous person.

As far as your husband leaving - we all have a right to be happy with our own lives, so obviously he felt he'd be happier going a different path. This is now a great opportunity for you to do what makes YOU happy. I'd also like to point out that sometimes - the trash takes itself out! :)

Keep your head up!

I’m so very sorry!!! Sounds like a lot!!! Cry when you need to. It’s good for you but then force yourself to take a couple small steps each day. Also recognize that if you find you can’t maybe see a counselor to help you sort out everything. You’re going through a lot!!! (Hugs)
