I was able to get
up a bit easier today than I have been lately. 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 I didn't think
that there would be much difference, but I was surprised to see that
I was down to 351.4 which is down 0.6 lbs (.3 kg), but again,
happiness isn't a number on a scale, and there will be daily
fluctuations. It is fascinating that there is a 2.4 lbs (1.08 kg)
difference from before and after paddling around in a swimming pool.
I do have to say that swimming is a very satisfying workout. I like
how it feels to work out the entire body at the same time.
I did get the
meal plan done for the week. It's kind of entertaining that it's
early mid-November I have enough lunches cooked to last me until the
first week of January. I am glad that vacuum sealing the meals makes
them last longer. Now it's just going to be up to me to stick to my
meal plan. I have enough dinner meats to last another week or two,
but there's no emergency on buying more of those just yet. Bacon is a
bit low, but then when isn't it.
Uploaded the
recipe video that I made back on Thursday. It's an AI inspired Chili.
It's kind of a strange tasting recipe, not bad, just strange. A lot
of people are getting weird about AI. IMO AI is neither Messiah, nor
Antichrist. It's just a tool. A tool that many people fear? Name a
new technology that people don't fear. Is it misused? Oh, most
definitely. But it is just a tool.
Spent most of the
day kind of zoning out. I have a spreadsheet planning out the video
releases and I was just kind of glad of how well I was doing on
planning future videos. This is another thing that I need to work on.
I spend so much time planning out videos that I never get any of them
done.
But I got a shock
when I got a phone call. The caller ID said, “Known Spam” so I
didn't answer. I searched the phone number that it called from and it
was from the parent company of the store I work at. I was kind of
doubtful that it was actually them until I listened to the voicemail
that they had left. It was an auto-call so probably why it got
flagged as spam. But the voicemail was a reminder that the health
insurance enrollment had started last week, and I haven't re-enrolled
yet. I really need to do that. This is one of the years that if you
don't re-sign up for the benefits, you'll lose the benefits. I didn't
do that just yet, the deadline is the 22nd and my next day off is
Sunday the 17th and then Tuesday the 19th I realize that it isn't
wise to wait until so close to the deadline, but signing up for that
kind of stuff always makes me nervous. People tell me that I am smart but whenever I try to read that legalese type stuff I always go cross-eyed. I don't have any medical issues (knock on wood) that would cause a lot of drama with insurance. But letting insurance benefits expire would be a good invitation for dramatic insurance stuff.
Hey, Day 3 no beer. And no extra spending. I'm a bit nervous that the rent check hasn't cleared yet, but it has passed later in the past. Tomorrow is another challenge on avoiding buying beer. As today I was off and I didn't have a reason to go into the store. But tomorrow I'll have to go to work. There would be the option of transferring money from savings accounts, but I really don't want to take that option. The really challenging challenge will be the day after tomorrow. Because tomorrow I still won't have much money for extra spending, but I get paid on Thursday.
