Good morning!

Here's your Saturday 7 roundup!

☀️ What I got last week:

I was in Mexico last week and got some much needed sun!

The previous week, I got my blood drawn for lab work. The results aren't in yet, so I don't know what my vitamin D levels are, but it felt good fill up on some this week! 

Hopefully the results are in soon and I can share an update with you next week!

P.S.

If you're traveling during the winter to get some sun, this is when you DO need to be careful. 

📉 What's the next phase of my journey:

Now, after 18 months of bulking up, the plan was to start my carnivore fat loss phase. 

However, after a week of so-so food, so-so workouts, and then catching a bug, I'm going to spend a week or two (or maybe all of February) regaining my strength before going into the Carnivore Fat Loss phase.

The plan for the Fat Loss phase is to cut my body fat percentage in half, to single digit (8-9%) body fat, which I'm guessing will require about 20-25 pounds of weight loss. After that, I'll reverse diet, completing the 2-year bulk-cut plan that I announced August of 2022. 

Here's the full 4-video playlist detailing the 18-month carnivore bulk and fat loss plan. 

😴 What 2 do you choose:

While in Mexico, I ate mostly meat and eggs, which wasn't too hard to do. 

The hard part is always the travel days.

Carnivore Bar came to the rescue. They sent me some bars that I ate in the airports. 

In the past, I've also done dried meat snacks too. And fasting is always a good option. 

While fasting is free, other options can be pricey. 

It makes me think of a heuristic, you can choose 2 out of 3: price, convenience, quality.

With the tap of a few buttons, I can get high quality food, at my doorstep, that I can bring in an airport. High quality, very convenient, but gotta pay for it :)

P.S.

To help alleviate some of the price, Carnivore Bar gave me a 10% discount code to send to you. Just use "MEATHEALTH10" at checkout.

💡What I read:

I always find travel a good time for reading and life evaluation.

Here's the 3 books I brought with me:

1. Traction - Get a Grip on Your Business
2. Teeth - The Struggle for Oral Health in America
3. The Future is Faster than You Think - Tech Transforming Our World

Here's an interesting article and resources on what you should do with your life.

🧠 What quote I've been thinking about:

"I think we talk about discipline because it feels tough to do. We’re doing the hard thing. We’re slogging through. But when we are at our best, we’re not slogging through. Great people are obsessed and they’re not slogging through. They are driven. They are motivated. They are deeply, deeply engaged. ... If it starts to feel like a slog and you’re pushing yourself every day—I mean, we all have periods of that—but [do it] too long and that really becomes laborious. To me, it’s often a flag that perhaps you shouldn’t be in that area at all."

This is 20-minutes of valuable financial education.

When you understand final settlement, you really start to understand bitcoin and how it relates to gold and USD.

🎵 What's you're favorite song:

Why people have different tastes in music.

As always, it's an absolute pleasure and honor getting to spend some time with you, hope you have a great weekend!
