#0009 ~ Ups and Downs

Is It the Mountains or the Pizza?

8-20-2023

Hello, fellow meat aficionados and fans of carnivorous capers! Welcome back to yet another sizzling installment of our journey. As we navigate through the undulating terrain of our weight loss journey, we’ve had to ask ourselves: are these ups and downs due to our mountainous locale or could a cheesy interlude with pizza be the culprit? Let’s chew on this meaty mystery together!

The Rollercoaster of Altitude & Attitude
Living in the mountains, it’s easy to attribute our life’s ups and downs to the literal highs and lows of our surroundings. Life at elevation is indeed a metaphorical rollercoaster—just like our carnivore journey. Some days, we’re climbing cloud-draped peaks, and other days, we’re navigating rocky slopes.

Cheryl’s Himalayan Endeavor
Cheryl likened her weight fluctuations to an adventurous trek across the Himalayas—full of challenges but also rewards. Whether she’s navigating a carb ice cap or claiming victory with a protein-packed jerky flag, it’s an expedition worth every step.

The Tradition: Popcorn & Movies
Normally, our once-a-week movie nights are accompanied by popcorn—a kernel of tradition in our carnivore life. But even with this minor detour, we’ve been on a fairly steady downward path. That is until…

The Pizza Plot Twist
In a daring deviation from our popcorn protocol, we indulged in pizza. This saucy affair led to an immediate peak in our weight loss graphs. I’m starting to think that pizza slice was more loaded than I’d like to admit.

Highs, Lows, and Medium-Rare Moments
Between the mountainous terrain, the occasional popcorn treat, and our pizza escapade, we’ve certainly had our share of ups and downs. But life is a series of medium-rare moments—when everything is cooked just right.

The Meat of the Matter
At the end of the day, our carnivore journey continues to be our meaty anchor. Whether we’re sky-high or valley-low, our commitment to this lifestyle remains, and it’s worth its weight in ribeyes.

Final Seasoning
As we carve out another chapter in this carnivore chronicle, we find humor in the ups and downs caused by mountains, mozzarella, and even movie popcorn. Each experience adds its own unique flavor to our journey, and we’re savoring every bite.

So cheers to more ups and downs, and to finding the perfect balance between tradition and discipline. Until next time, may your meats be succulent and your journey ever flavorful!
