Weight: 307.8 lbs ( 139.6 kg) BMI: 39.5 Waist: 50.5 in ( 128.3 cm) WtHr: 68.2% Breakfast: Johnsonville Double Cheddar Smoked Sausages Lunch: Pork Loin, Pork Rinds, Queso Dinner: Cheeseburger Patties Drinks: Monster, Sparkling Water, Sober Year 1 (Day 618) Keto Month 6 (Day 187) (232/365 Days 2026 Keto) Weight was a little down this morning, not enough to get that excited about. I think the scale knows that I changed the goal so it has to mess with me for a while. Today again I worked a little earlier than I usually do so I didn't have time to have coffee or the usual breakfast, I did have time to duck in a few minutes early to grab a pack of sausages. I have to say that the first half of the day was NOT what I was expecting. Today was the first Friday of the month, the weekend of a Major holiday, and the State Fair is coming to town next week. I was expecting to be running ragged all day long. But for the most part during the first half people just kind of trickled in. I ...

Weight: 308.0 lbs ( 139.7 kg) BMI: 39.5 Waist: 50.5 in ( 128.3 cm) WtHr: 68.2% Breakfast: Bar-S Hot Dogs  Snack: Cashews Lunch: Pork Steak, Cottage Cheese Dinner: Member's Mark Hot Dogs Drinks: Monster, Sparkling Water, Sober Year 1 (Day 617) Keto Month 6 (Day 186) (231/365 Days 2026 Keto) That was a really rather disappointing weight this morning. I'm trying to keep a one day weight get me down too much. But I haven't had a number like that since the first half of July. That had put me in a bit of a mood and in a hurry so I didn't remember to measure the waist. It doesn't change much so I'll guess on that. I was scheduled to work 8 to 5 today. I was a bit nervous about showing up to work that early as I'm usually waking up at 8am and they needed me to BE there at 8am. I had set several alarms on my phone. They say that it's more effective to set one alarm and jump up and out on that first alarm. But I don't have a lot of confidence in relyin...

Weight: 302.1 lbs ( 137.0 kg) BMI: 38.8 Waist: 51 in ( 129.5 cm) WtHr: 69.6% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Bratwursts Dinner: Member's Mark Hot Dogs Drinks: Salted Coffee, Monster, Sparkling Water, Dr Pepper Zero Sober Year 1 (Day 615) Keto Month 6 (Day 184) (229/365 Days 2026 Keto) I was really slow to wake up this morning. I remember waking up to hear Mom talking on the phone with Step-Dad at around 8am, then I rolled over suddenly it was almost 10am. I don't think I had a hard time falling asleep last night. It felt kind of odd to cook “breakfast” at almost 11am, but I was starting to get hungry. Good weight this morning. It's nice to start the month with a weight lower than the start of any other month this year. I went ahead and updated the “Short Goal” to 290 lbs (131.5 kg) I don't consider the 300 lb (136.1 kg) goal “beaten” just yet, but it felt strange to set the monthly goal to only 2.1 lbs (0.95 kg) away from the current weight. Even after waking ...

Weight: 303.8 lbs ( 137.8 kg) BMI: 39.0 Waist: 51.5 in ( 130.8 cm) WtHr: 69.6% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Snack: Cashews Lunch: Smithfield Pork Loin, Cottage Cheese Dinner: Boneless Rib-Eye Drinks: Salted Coffee, Monster, Sparkling Water, Sober Year 1 (Day 614) Keto Month 6 (Day 183) (228/365 Days 2026 Keto) That weight sucks. Sure it is lower than the beginning of the month, and WAY lower than the beginning of the year. But come on, I want to go back to being under 300 lbs (136.1 kg). I did manage to post last night close to the 11pm goal that I want to do, but then I played with spreadsheets for a while after that. I was scolding myself that I posted early because I want to start reading in the evening, not give myself more time working with spreadsheets. But when I did finally get to the book I came to the realization that I probably shouldn't have tried restarting my reading hobby with a Victorian English novel. It was a quart to midnight and I'm trying to wrap my h...

Really excited that the credit card finally came in. Not in the manner of “Whoohoo shopping spree!” but more in the manner of I've spent the last month or so planning and waiting for this puzzle piece to come in. I didn't get the posts done in the last couple of days as the other night I was watching the lunar eclipse and last night when I got home the credit card was here and I did another rebalance of the budget plan. The last rebalance was because there is a $5 bonus for signing up for autopay on the phone bill, but when I tried to put the credit card on the autopay it said that the card w...

Weight: 301.0 lbs ( 136.5 kg) BMI: 38.6 Waist: 51.0 in ( 129.5 cm) WtHr: 68.9% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Air Fried Chicken Dinner: Member's Mark Hot Dogs Drinks: Salted Coffee, Monster, Sparkling Water, Celsius Energy Sober Year 1 (Day 610) Keto Month 5 (Day 179) (224/365 Days 2026 Keto) Was kind of slow waking up this morning. Slept until almost 9am and even when checking my watch I tried to do mental math to try to convince myself that I, “really didn't need to get going just yet, I still have 'this' amount of time before I have to get ready. Felt kind of strange when I woke up, it kind of felt like I was hungover. I was able to have time to cook the bacon and eggs. I also threw some chicken into the air fryer. I didn't have time before work to clean it, but I cleaned it after work. I was going to put a pork loin in the fryer as I'm pretty sure that would work out fine. However when I looked up how to cook that in the fryer Google said to run it a...

Took a bit as I was kind of stuck in a death loop as I had fell into a canyon with the enemy robot spiders that kept wiping me out. Luckily I found a cave that I could use to save scum. As it autosaves whenever you go in or out of a building. So I would go into the cave so it would autosave, come out kill a scorpion, and then duck back into the cave. I found a weapon called a “Tesla Cannon” that was supposed to do extra damage to robots, but if it did it wasn't much extra. It had a really downer ending as the main bad guy of the story was a scientist driven mad by the Amphetamine drugs in the game known as Mentats and the scientists...
