It helped that I didn't have Twitter (I'm sorry “X”) on my phone. I couldn't find my tape-measure so I'm not 100% certain on my waist measurement, but I'm not going to guess that it changed much. My belly is feeling a bit tight, but that might be the Seltzer water that. I forgot that I wanted to wait until I was done at the Y to step on the scale. And when I first woke up I stepped on it and it said, 353.8 lbs (160.5 kg) That's 1.8 lbs (0.8 kg) up from yesterday. I tried to console myself with the idea of daily fluctuations and happiness isn't a number on the scale. That was a good motivator to go to the YMCA like I want to be doing. And when I got back from the Y

FINALLY trash day. I had forgotten to take my dumpster out to the curb last week so it was overfilled so I couldn't take out the trash for the last several days. I'm a bit annoyed that when I got the initial trash taken out it half filled the damned dumpster. Oh well, that's another great thing about the meal plan, er, plan that I want to follow. It doesn't generate much waste.

First half of work went amazingly smoothly. Which is interesting because I was running the self checkout for three hours. I still hate running self checkout. But at least with the mental energy that I have from the diet I was able to keep up with the whirling spinning dance that is running self checkout. Feet and calves are still very grumpy at me. And I still had to repeat myself, repeat myself, repeat myself with everything I said, but I was able to get through it fairly smoothly. I'm starting to think it might be time for some new shoes. Unfortunately I don't have MONEY for new shoes. I'm budgeting for the rent check to come in this week and I'll only have about $30 to last until next Thursday. Thank CHRIST that I already have food planned, bought, and cooked. ANOTHER reason that I'm loving the meal plan plan.

And HOLY MOSASAUR! The physical energy met the mental energy during the second half of the day. I'm not sure if it was the Cordon Bleu soup that I had for lunch (which is a carnivore recipe as far as I can tell) or if I got into full Ketosis. But if my feet, knees, and dignity didn't vote heavily against it I would have been dancing around the store. Which is most definitely not something I get to say very often in the second half of the shift. I just couldn't contain my energy.

I decided to bake the bratwursts for dinner this evening so I could do the dishes while they baked. Feet were really wanting me to sit down. But all of the bowls and spoons were dirty so I forced myself to get them done. I only had lunch microwaved because I had the foresight to put it into one of the glass lunchboxes that I have. I did manage to get the dishes done, although my feet were REALLY telling me that I was wanting to sit down. But I really needed to get the dishes done. When I got home this evening the kitchen wasn't smelling quite as bad as it was yesterday when I had gotten home for lunch, but the dishes really needed to be done and not doing the dishes each day just makes it worse for the next day. But I do have to say that cleaning the dishes for the Cordon Bleu soup went amazingly smoothly. For a recipe that I cooked two days ago, it was amazingly easy to clan up after. All I had to do was, mostly, rinse out the Dutch Oven that I cooked it in and the bowls that I used to portioned it out in. And I do have to say that there have been quite a few things that I've cooked that I didn't get a chance to clean up after until a few days later, but I do have to say that those have been a lot harder to clean up after.
