Weight: 311.7 lbs ( 141.4 kg) BMI: 40 Waist: 53 in ( 134.6 cm) WtHr: 71.6% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs https://youtu.be/l5bQ0Y0FXWQ Lunch: Pork Steak, Cottage Cheese Snack: Cashews Dinner: Member's Mark Hot Dogs Drinks: Salted Coffee, Monster, Sparkling Water, Sober Year 1 (Day 542) Keto Month 3 (Day 105) (155/365 Days 2026 Keto) Happiness is not a number on the scale, but it is irritating to be back up to “Morbidly Obese” That does seem to be a pattern the day after I eat a Ham Steak. I speculate that the salt in the ham makes me retain water so I will probably be peeing all day long today. Worked 12 to 8 today so I had plenty of time to cook bacon and eggs for breakfast and bake the pork steak for lunch. I really didn't do much else before work other than wait and count down to the time I had to go to work. I had forgotten that I was going to do Monday weekly weigh in videos until that I had already started eating breakfast. Maybe I'll get one done next week. I wor...

Weight: 307.7 lbs ( 139.5 kg) BMI: 39.5 Waist: 53 in ( 134.6 cm) WtHr: 71.6% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs https://youtu.be/l5bQ0Y0FXWQ Lunch: Bratwursts Dinner: Ham Steak Drinks: Salted Coffee, Monster, Red Bull, 1.25 L Coke Zero Sober Year 1 (Day 541) Keto Month 3 (Day 104) (154/365 Days 2026 Keto) I didn't get to make the post last night as I worked until 9 closing the desk and then after cooking dinner and recovering from work there just wasn't enough time to make the post. Last night I baked bratwursts for dinner and figured I'd just go ahead and bake the bratwursts for lunch today. Struggled with the, “What am I doing with my life” thought again this morning. That's never a very positive thought and I can never quite describe what I mean by that thought. It just makes me think that later in life I'll look back and see that all I ever did was just wait and survive each time in my life and I never really lived much more than just survive each moment. Even writi...

Weight: 305.8 lbs ( 138.7 kg) BMI: 39.3 Waist: 52 in ( 132.1 cm) WtHr: 70.3% Breakfast: Sausage Egg and Cheese Lunch: Member's Mark Hot Dogs Dinner: Roast Drinks: Salted Coffee, Monster, Sparkling Water, Seltzer Sober Year 1 (Day 539) Keto Month 3 (Day 102) (152/365 Days 2026 Keto) Weight is down from yesterday. Not in any amount to get overly excited about, but I'll take a down. Was kind of wanting something different for breakfast this morning so I had some sausage patties and eggs as the sausage box was already opened. I added salt to the coffee this morning and it did taste better than plain I recorded the current Store Story Video. But I had a hard time finding the desire to edit it. I did get it done and I should have gone ahead and post it for the algorithm (consistency is supposedly King on YouTube success) But I just wasn't feeling like it. Again not a great attitude to have if I'm ever going to find success on the platform. All afternoon I had a hard...

Weight: 306.1 lbs ( 138.8 kg) BMI: 39.3 Waist: 52.5 in ( 133.4 cm) WtHr: 70.9% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Smithfield Pork Loin Garlic Herb, Cottage Cheese Snack: Cashews Dinner: Cheeseburger Patties Drinks: Coffee, Monster, Sparkling Water, Red Bull Sober Year 1 (Day 538) Keto Month 3 (Day 101) (151/365 Days 2026 Keto) Really good drop on the scale this morning. It would be nice if that continued. Didn't really do much before work. I worked 10:30 to 7:30. So it was a bit early for me to work. Not early enough to effect me much other than counting down how much time was left before I had to go to work. Mom prepared Breakfast this morning. She told me that she felt guilty for not cooking dinner last night, but she wasn't feeling well. She's been having some serious sinus issues lately. As I had threw away the last of the Apple Cider Vinegar yesterday I just had the coffee straight this morning. It tasted quite bitter. I'm used to having the sourness of th...

Weight: 309.9 lbs ( 140.6 kg) BMI: 39.8 Waist: 53 in ( 134.6 cm) WtHr: 71.6% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Smithfield Pork Loin Garlic Herb Dinner: Pork Steak Drinks: Apple Cider Salted Coffee, Monster, Sparkling Water, Sober Year 1 (Day 537) Keto Month 3 (Day 100) (150/365 Days 2026 Keto) Weight is crawling down while waist is crawling up. Had a bit of a hard time waking up this morning as last night I got distracted by reading previous pages of the blog as I'm keeping these all in this one document on my computer. Debating the wisdom of that, but meh. When I had the coffee this morning I went ahead and threw away the last of the Apple Cider Vinegar. It was the kind that has the “mother” in it. Not to be too nasty, but it kind of looked like something was growing in the bottom of the bottle. Stayed at home for most of the day. I finished the script of the next store story. Not confident that I'll get it posted this week, but I'll give it a shot. I just didn...

Weight: 310.7 lbs ( 140.9 kg) BMI: 39.9 Waist: 52.5 in ( 133.4 cm) WtHr: 70.9% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Snack: Cashews Lunch: Bratwursts Dinner: Cheeseburger Patties Drinks: Apple Cider Salted Coffee, Monster, Sparkling Water, Red Bull Sober Year 1 (Day 536) Keto Month 3 (Day 99) (149/365 Days 2026 Keto) Not surprised that the weight is up from yesterday. Yesterday was Grandma's birthday so Mom treated her to a lunch at a local steakhouse. I went along, buying my own lunch. I had the Club Salad. It did seem Ketogenic, but it was a rather large salad. And then had Johnsonville Jalapeno Cheddar Smoked Sausages and cottage cheese for “lunch” at work then had Member's Mark Hot dogs for dinner when I got home. So I really did eat too much yesterday (Monday). Since I got off late last night I just didn't have the time or mental energy to get yesterday's post done. I was mentally fried from work, but it was still a quarter to 4am before I got to sleep, according to my ...

Weight: 308.5 lbs ( 139.9 kg) BMI: 39.6 Waist: 51.5 in ( 130.8 cm) WtHr: 69.6% (nice) Breakfast: Sausage Patties and Eggs Lunch: Bratwursts Dinner: Pork Steak Drinks: Apple Cider Salted Coffee, Monster, Sparkling Water, Sober Year 1 (Day 534) Keto Month 3 (Day 97) (147/365 Days 2026 Keto) A bit down for today, annoyed that the weight jumps up but crawls down. It is good that the waist is down. It's been a while since it was that far down. I'm pretty sure that 51 inches is the record. I worked 12 to 9 today so I had some extra time before work. When I woke up Step-Dad was already cooking sausage and eggs for breakfast. And as I was sitting around before work I started on the script for the next Store Story. These weekly scripted videos are going to be a serious grind. Props to the people who are able to get that done. But then again a good number of people who are successful on YouTube have massive teams behind them and I'm kind of a One-Man-Band. As I worked later th...
