Weight: 313.6 lbs ( 142.2 kg) BMI: 40.2 Waist: 53 in ( 134.6 cm) WtHr: 71.6% Breakfast: X Lunch: Bratwursts, Dinner: Pork Steak Drinks: Salted Coffee, Monster, Sparkling Water, Skipped Breakfast again today. Seemed to react better to that today than I did yesterday. I still felt mentally low all day. It took all day to edit the General Update video that I wanted to have done yesterday. Not that it needed a lot of editing, it was just that I really couldn't watch it. I am not very confident in that video. It was kind of me droning on about some of the events of last month. Baked Bratwursts for lunch. The bratwursts that I cooked yesterday (Monday) were quite burnt so I didn't cook today's for as long. But I didn't let them cool before eating so that was a bit of a challenge because they were quite warm while eating. I did take the time to run into town to restock on Monster Energy drinks (not sponsored) for my locker. And there was a digital coupon on Johnsonvil...

Weight: 312.9 lbs ( 141.9 kg) BMI: 40.2 Waist: 54 in ( 137.2 cm) WtHr: 73% Breakfast: X Snack: Cashews Lunch: Bratwursts, Cottage Cheese Dinner: Cheeseburger Patties Drinks: Salted Coffee, Monster, Sparkling Water, Powerade Sober Year 1 (Day 565) Keto Month 4 (Day 125) (175/365 Days 2026 Keto) The weight being up 3.6 lbs (1.67 kg) and waistline being up 1.5 inches (3.8 cm) kind of settled me on the idea of trying to do the TMAD diet. I did think about adding that to the title. But I'm still not sure if I'll be sticking to it. And Intermittent Fasting Keto Sobriety Blog seems like a convoluted title.  I baked bratwursts for lunch and had the regular coffee, but I skipped the regular bacon and eggs. I will admit I was seeing some weird flashes this morning. Just out of the corner of my eyes. Not sure if that was because I had skipped breakfast or because I had coffee on an empty stomach. But the flashes were quite distracting. Sometimes they looked like when in a video gam...

Weight: 309.3 lbs ( 140.3 kg) BMI: 39.7 Waist: 52.5 in ( 133.4 cm) WtHr: 70.9% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs https://youtu.be/l5bQ0Y0FXWQ Lunch: Bratwursts Dinner: Member's Mark Hot Dogs Drinks: Salted Coffee, Monster, Sparkling Water, Sober Year 1 (Day 564) Keto Month 4 (Day 124) (174/365 Days 2026 Keto) Good drop for today, but still up for the month. Very down for the year. But could still be better. Still debating on doing TMAD. Two Meals a Day. If I choose to do that should I skip Breakfast, Lunch, or Dinner. Does it matter which one I choose to skip? How important is consistency in that? Is the idea of skipping meals to try to lose weight a eating disorder? This morning before work I started working on editing the General Update video that I'm wanting to upload tomorrow (Monday) I was glad I worked noon to 9 today so I had a bit of time to work on that. Didn't get it completed just yet. Not sure if I'll get it done in time to post it on the Fist Monday like I w...

Weight: 311.5 lbs ( 141.3 kg) BMI: 40 Waist: 52.5 in ( 133.4 cm) WtHr: 70.9% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs https://youtu.be/l5bQ0Y0FXWQ Snack: Cashews Lunch: Baked Chicken https://youtu.be/rfHQy-XdDxE Snack: Cashews Dinner: Bone-In Rib Eye Drinks: Salted Coffee, Monster, Sparkling Water, Celsius Energy, Powerade Sober Year 1 (Day 563) Keto Month 4 (Day 123) (173/365 Days 2026 Keto) Power blinked again when I started writing this out, this is strange that this is happening all of the sudden. I hope that it isn't related to the storms that have been coming through lately. And when the power came back up it sounded like a big bunch of fireworks went off. Or at least I hope it was fireworks. :/ The radar was clear and the forecast doesn't show any storms for the next several hours. Trying to not let today's weight effect me too much. But that is a bit of a blow to the morale to be back up to Morbidly Obese. Back of my heels really felt the increase in weight. I did have to ...

Weight: 308.4 lbs ( 139.9 kg) BMI: 39.6 Waist: 52.5 in ( 133.4 cm) WtHr: 70.9% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs https://youtu.be/l5bQ0Y0FXWQ Lunch: Johnsonville Double Cheddar Smoked Sausages Dinner: Boneless Rib Eye Drinks: Salted Coffee, Monster, Sparkling Water, Celsius Energy Sober Year 1 (Day 562) Keto Month 4 (Day 122) (172/365 Days 2026 Keto) Worked a little earlier than I usually do today so I didn't do much before work. It wasn't much earlier as I was scheduled to work 10 to 5:30, but that did throw me off so all I did was count down how much time I had left before going to work. Since I didn't take the time to cook lunch when I cooked breakfast I had the smoked sausages for lunch. Today I had the Double Cheddar Smoked Sausages as I was wanting to compare how I felt between that flavor and the Jalapeno Cheddar Smoked Sausages that I had yesterday as after lunch yesterday my ankles and knees were sore. Today they didn't hurt as much, but there was still a discomf...

I have filled the accounts before over the last month or so, but the last time it was full the car insurance was due that next week but now that's payed off I won't have anything that I'll need to pay for that costs more than a paycheck. (knock on wood) Since I spent too long staring at spreadsheets this morning I didn't take time to cook lunch although I did cook breakfast so I was good on that. Today was crazy busy. I guess that's to be expected as it is the beginning of the ...
