Weight: 329.6 lbs ( 149.5 kg) BMI: 42.3 Waist: 54.5 in (138.4 cm) WtHr: 73.6% Breakfast: Pork Steak and Eggs Lunch: Pizza Soup Dinner: Bratwursts Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Unsweetened Tea Sober Month 5 (Day 163) Distracted by Oblivion again last night. I've been wondering around the map discovering locations. So far I've discovered 50% of the locations, but only cleared 8% of all of them. A challenge with clearing the locations is that the designers of these dungeons seem to be allergic to straight lines and they are all winding confusing caves also clearing out the dungeon gathers loot. And my character can only carry so much at a time. So I'll clear a room, and them run back to town to sell loot, and then go back to the cave. I did have a chuckle when I found a pair of Blue Suede Shoes. When I got back to town to sell them. The shop keeper bought them for 1 gold. There are all kinds of pants, shirts, and shoes that the bad guys drop to be sold for gold so ...

Weight: 329.4 lbs ( 149.4 kg) BMI: 42.3 Waist: 54.5 in (138.4 cm) WtHr: 73.6% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs   Lunch: Basic Chili  and Potato Chips Dinner: Mac and Cheese and Hot Dogs Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer,5 Hour Energy Shot Hawaiian Breeze Sober Month 5 (Day 161) Woo back on track. I've been hard bingeing Oblivion over the last several days so I didn't take the time to make much progress on anything else. I had started a new play through so I can truly track all of the locations that I've discovered and that did put me in a bit of a funk as I was up to 60 hours on the last play through and restarted and all of that time was just wiped out. And starting that again kind of hurt. But this play through I've found 139 locations but only cleared 24 of them. That's 43% locations found but only 7% of the locations cleared. But I'm going to try to not have my time so absorbed by the game. I'm going to stop tracking “Keto” days until (if?) Roommate goe...

Weight: 332.8 lbs ( 150.9 kg) BMI: 42.7 Waist: 55 in (139.7 cm) WtHr: 74.3% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Cabbage Soup Dinner: Bratwursts Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Unsweetened Tea, Kroger Energy Shot, Arizona Diet Lemonade Tea, Keto Day 3 Sober Month 5 (Day 155) I seem to be in a bit of a Weight Loss Plateau. But looking at the data of the year that seems to be the pattern. January was pretty flat, February had pretty good progress, March was pretty flat, and then April had good progress, and now May is flat. So I'm not sure if that is normal, but I am making amazing progress for the year. I didn't get a chance to take any notes today. I do remember that there were moments that I wanted to write things down. But good gravy today was swamped busy. It was the Friday of a holiday weekend and there are rumors of bad weather over the next couple of days. It was insanely busy and I did have more than one person ask me if the help that we had was all of the help...

Weight: 332.6 lbs ( 150.8 kg) BMI: 42.7 Waist: 55 in (139.7 cm) WtHr: 74.3% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Big Mac Casserole Dinner: Strip Steaks Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Unsweetened Tea Keto Day 2 Sober Month 5 (Day 154) A little disappointed that the weight is up a couple of pound since yesterday. But I'm REALLY KIND OF FREAKED OUT that the paycheck hasn't landed in my bank account this morning. The pay stub usually updates on Wednesday around 7pm and I usually check the site as I'm leaving work on Wednesday, but I was off yesterday so I didn't bother checking the site and I was just expecting the deposit at midnight like usually happens. I checked my balances after posting last night...and it wasn't there. I tried to check the website were the pay stubs are posted and it wasn't responding. So I downloaded the related app. After a bit of login and signing up drama, I was able to check my pay stub...and it wasn't there. The last pay stu...

Weight: 330 lbs ( 149.7 kg) BMI: 42.4 Waist: 55 in (139.7 cm) WtHr: 74.3% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Bratwursts Dinner: Hormel Garlic Herb Pork Loin Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Unsweetened Tea Keto Day 1 Sober Month 5 (Day 153) Had spaghetti last night so resetting the Keto Count. Got distracted by Oblivion last night so I didn't get around to posting. Or at least that'll be the excuse that I'll use.  It is nice to be back down to 330 (149.7 kg) Goal is currently at 320 (145.1 kg) but I seem to be back on track now.  I did manage to defrost the freezer and take an inventory yesterday. Frustratingly the freezer is still overfilled. HOW DOES THIS KEEP HAPPENING? Yeah, I bought some more Bratwursts, and a Pork Butt cut into steaks. But that's all I bought and it was still a challenge to get everything back into the freezer even with the stuff I got out for the weekly meal plan. I didn't think that I had bought more than the seven lunches and sev...

Weight: 331.4 lbs ( 150.3 kg) BMI: 42.5 Waist: 54.5 in (138.4 cm) WtHr: 73.6% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs   Lunch: Basic Chili Dinner: Cheeseburger Patties Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Kroger Energy Shot, Unsweetened Tea Sober Month 5 (Day 152) Keto Week 1 (Day 7) I didn't post last night, I just didn't feel like it. I tired to explain why in this post before going to bed, but brain just didn't want to comply. It was almost like the Windows Shutdown Sound went off as soon as I got home last night. A piece of good news, my feet have stopped hurting. I was nervous about my left foot for a couple of days as it was sore on the top outside. I guess that I just stepped wrong, but it seems to have sorted itself out. Forgot my freaking notes again. I do remember that there were things that I wanted to write about, but I can't remember them now. I guess there was a Tornado Warning last night around midnight. It wasn't a very effective warning as nobody seemed...

Weight: 334 lbs ( 151.5 kg) BMI: 42.9 Waist: 56 in (142.2 cm) WtHr: 75.7% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Broccoli Soup Dinner: Bratwursts Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Kroger Energy Shot Sober Month 4 (Day 150) Keto Day 6 Had a hard time falling asleep last night. I just didn't want to go to bed. I was feeling kind of frustrated with the feeling of go to bed, wake up, go to work, go to bed, wake up, go to work, feeling of a loop. And the chili from last night was messing with my stomach and it was kind of cranky for most of the day. Coffee tasted a bit odd this morning. Kind of sour bitter. I'm not sure what's going on there. This container of coffee that I bought recently was the little baggie of coffee and not the can that I usually buy and I had left it open sitting next to the coffee pot so maybe it's going bad? It says to keep in the fridge, but I hadn't kept any other coffees in the fridge. But the other coffees had a lid that I could close an...
