Weight: 152.3 kg (335.8lbs) BMI: 43.1 Waist: 144.8 cm (56.5 in) WtHr: 76.4% Breakfast: Steak and Eggs Lunch: Tuna Mornay Casserole Dinner: Bratwursts Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Red Bull, Keto Week 1 (Day 10) Sober Month 3 (Day 104) YMCA: No I was going to make an April Fool's video “Carnivore Butter” where I would imply that I was just going to eat butter. And only butter. There are influencers who have gotten famous for just noming on sticks of butter. But when I woke up this morning I had a really strong, “don't wanna to” attitude. Having a really hard time shaking that mood. Trying to think of something to work on, or something to do. But I just don't wanna to. Play a game? Set up another part on the printer? Meh. I don't wanna to. I know that I'm going to go to bed tonight frustrated that I didn't get anything done. But I just can't find the motivation to do anything. Heck, even Roommate asked me if everything was alright. Beca...

Weight: 335.4lbs ( 152.9 kg) BMI: 43.1 Waist: 57 in (144.8 cm) WtHr: 77% Breakfast: Pork Steak and Eggs Lunch: Kroger Jalapeno Cheddar Bratwursts Dinner: BBQ Chuck Roast Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Red Bull, Keto Week 1 (Day 9) Sober Month 3 (Day 103) YMCA: No Legs were stiff and sore this morning. That's the excuse I used to not go to the YMCA. Still had great progress on the weigh in. But if I'm wanting to make more progress I'm going to have to get going over there. And again I'm thinking that my gut is changing shape because I wore one of my 2X shirts and it almost fits right. I still have to adjust the front of it as I stand up. But at least my gut isn't hanging out of the front of the shirt. Or at least not as much as it has been. The pork steaks that I had for dinner last night came in a pack of three so I had one for breakfast this morning. And I did find another steak in the fridge. So that'll be tomorrow's breakfast. I di...

Weight: 337.2lbs ( 152.9 kg) BMI: 43.3 Waist: 57 in (144.8 cm) WtHr: 77% Breakfast: Steak and Eggs Lunch: Cheesy Chicken Chili Dinner: Pork Steak Drinks: Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Red Bull, Keto Week 1 (Day 8) Sober Month 3 (Day 102) YMCA: No Forgot to put salt in the coffee this morning. It did make it taste a bit strange. It was kind of satisfying when cooking the steak this morning as I was able to get the strip steak to stand up on it's side. Online I've seen people post pictures of their steak standing up and they say that it's good to do that to make the steak cook on all sides. Not that I think it's bad to only cook it on the two sides. But eh, if I can get it to cook all of the way around all of the better right? I'm pretty sure that was the last of the steaks. I do have bacon for tomorrow, I'm going to have to get more bacon on Tuesday when I get groceries. I set the printer to print the front bottom of the left shin. The bottom calf was a...

Weight: 339.6lbs ( 154.0 kg) BMI: 43.6 Waist: 57 in (144.8 cm) WtHr: 77% Breakfast: Steak and Eggs Lunch: AI Lemon Chicken Parmesan Dinner: Corned Beef Brisket Drinks: Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, Sugar Free Red Bull, Keto Day 7 Sober Month 3 (Day 102) YMCA: No I'm not going to lie, disappointed in today's weight. It's back above the average of the month and the long list. It's still under the average for the year and the last two months. It's great to be down 7.1 lbs (3.2 kg) for the year, but kinda sucks to be up 5.2 lbs (2.4 kg) for the week. And yeah, fluctuations happen, but it would be nice to be fluctuating in the other direction. Steak and eggs for breakfast was great for a while, but that's really getting expensive. I think once I'm out of the steaks that I have I'll just stick to bacon and eggs for breakfast. I set the printer to print the left bicep of the cosplay. It printed the lower half while I was at work and after work I s...

Weight: 336.6 lbs ( 152.7 kg) BMI: 43.2 Waist: 56 in (142.2 cm) WtHr: 75.7% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Snack: Savage Slim Jim Lunch: Johnsonville Jalapeno Cheddar Sausages, mixed nuts Dinner: Rib Eye Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, Sugar Free Red Bull, Powerade Zero Orange Keto Day 6 Sober Month 3 (Day 101) YMCA: No Today was up in weight, but fluctuations happen. A little annoyed that yesterday matched the record low for the year, but today was up two pounds (one kilogram) and with the very few days left in the month I'll unlikely match that low level again before the next month. That's just something for Vitamin P. Still making amazing progress this month. I noticed that a shirt that was really kind of tight a couple of weeks ago was fitting a lot more loosely today. The waist hasn't dropped by a whole lot over the month, but I do wonder if the gut is changing shape in other ways. really having a hard time thinking of something to talk ab...

Weight: 334.4 lbs ( 151.7 kg) BMI: 42.9 Waist: 56 in (142.2 cm) WtHr: 75.7% Breakfast: Steak and Eggs Lunch: Fajita Soup Dinner: Pork Steak Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, Sugar Free Red Bull Keto Day 5 Sober Month 3 (Day 100) YMCA: No Woot, triple digits on the sobritety. Still can't seem to spell sobriety properly. I don't think that I've gone 100 days without alcohol since I was 21. Not that I've been struggling with it for that long. I printed out the front half of the left forearm of the costume I'm working on. When it finished it was quite satisfying how well it matched up with the back half of the forearm that I printed several years ago. I had to cut the part up a little more because the new printer isn't big enough to print it off in one piece. But a bit of duct tape is holding it together right now. The back half was printed in black filament and the front half is in white filament so there a bit of “yin and yang” going...
