Weight: 306.3 lbs ( 138.9 kg) BMI: 39.3 Waist: 51 in ( 129.5 cm) WtHr: 68.9% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs https://youtu.be/l5bQ0Y0FXWQ Lunch: Bratwursts Dinner: Cheeseburger Patties Drinks: Apple Cider Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Monster, Red Bull Sober Year 1 (Day 484) Keto Month 1 (Day 47) (91/365 Days 2026 Keto) Had a hard time falling asleep last night (Wednesday into Thursday) Just couldn't convince my body and mind that I was tired. Really good weight this morning. Not quite a record for the year, but not far off. Spent a lot of time this morning re-balancing the budget as General Savings had reached the “Full” goal. It's really exciting to reach “Full” on any of the savings accounts without it needing to immediately be needed. I needed to balance things out as since it was full and I don't need to add or remove anything from General Savings I deleted all of the reminders in Quicken of the transfers into General Savings. Now if I can only get Bill Savings and ...

Weight: 307.7 lbs ( 139.6 kg) BMI: 39.5 Waist: 53 in ( 134.6 cm) WtHr: 71.6% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs https://youtu.be/l5bQ0Y0FXWQ Lunch: AI Pizza Casserole Dinner: Strip Steak Drinks: Apple Cider Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Monster, Sober Year 1 (Day 473) Keto Month 1 (Day 37) (81/365 Days 2026 Keto) Whoohoo another record down for the year. I wasn't able to upload last night as it was a bit late already when I got home last night and I had yet to assemble my computer after the move. I slept considerably better last night than I did the night before. The night of Saturday going into Sunday I just couldn't fall asleep. I'm not sure what the issue was, new pillows? New bed? New Room? But I was flopping around without sleep. The bed is King Sized, but I kept finding the edge of the bed and had to keep pushing myself back from the edge and kept getting tangled up in the blanket. Slept better last night, but was still really tired. I'm guessing that I'm sti...

I had a notification from PayPal. Roommate had sent me the usual amount to cover his half of the rent and "help" with the bills. In the note that I left to announce my intention to move out I told him that I'd leave the decision of rent reimbursement to his discretion I guess that was what he decided to do. I did think of sending a text thanking him. But thought that might come across as sarcastic or harsh. Also had a surprise on the scale. Three days on a row below the Morbidly Obese level! These numbers are crazy.  I was also surprised to see Roommate wake up before I had to go to work. I was busy running around getting things ready to move out tomorrow night. I did try to stay out of his way, but he did seem to...

Another record number for this year and only 4.6 lbs (2 kg) away from the lowest weight of 2015, the second lowest weight on record and 22.3 lbs (10.1 kg) away from the lowest weight I've ever recorded that was back in 2014. This morning I went ahead and wrote out the note to Roommate of my intentions and the motivations of moving out. I also started to pack things up. I ran by Walmart (not sponsored) to grab a lock for the storage unit and some tape for the boxes I snagged from the store. Most of the boxes have been broken down so I'll need to put tape on them to hold them together. I didn't get much moved into the storage unit, just ...

Today's weight is only 0.3 lbs (0.13 kg) up from yesterday. Being up two to three pounds a couple days in a row and then being down two to three pounds each day last week was weird. Happiness is not a number on the scale, but it is a relief to be back under the “morbidly obese” number. I did go ahead and update the “Short Goal” down to 300 lbs (136 kg) When I was waking up this morning I was going to go to the Landlords office. I was laying in bed telling myself that I needed to get up and going. The lazy side of me was trying to tell myself that I real...

But I'm going to call each 30 day period a "month" I did the inventory of the food in the freezer and thawed it out again. It went a bit quicker than previous thawings as I had just thawed it out a couple of weeks ago. The ice had built up again so that the fan in the freezer was buzzing against the ice. Most of it had the consistency of snow, but it was still building up. I'm guessing that it might be because I have the freezer overfilled and there is more moisture i...

All it had was a list of the utilities. (Internet, Electricity, Gas, and Water.) The totals and then halved that added in the half of the rent and left it on Roommates Table. When he got up this afternoon I expected a reaction. He was absolutely incensed. He refused to have any sort of conversation at all about it. He asked why he should pay anything. I tried to ask why I should be paying for everything. I don't know I might have considered some sort of compromise. But no as soon as he saw his half of the bills he asked how he was supposed to p...

Spent most of the morning fighting the autopilot. I did manage to drink the pot of coffee before work, but even then I was just kind of barely above flat line on brain power. The Customer Service Manager was telling me about how a lot of people are due to do their yearly re-certifications on their computer training and names and terms were just kind of going through one ear and out through the other. I'm pretty sure that I got most of the people to do most of the training that they were supposed to do (I think). They do have a list so I'm sure that in a week or so they'll release a new list of who sti...
