Weight: 305.9 lbs ( 138.7 kg) BMI: 39.3 Waist: 52 in ( 132.1 cm) WtHr: 70.3% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Bratwursts Dinner: Member's Mark Hot Dogs Drinks: Apple Cider Vinegar Salted Coffee, Seltzer, Monster, Red Bull, Sober Year 1 (Day 492) Keto Month 1 (Day 55) (99/365 Days 2026 Keto) Nobody is ever going to accuse the Federal Government of being overly efficient. When I moved in the beginning of April I filled out a change of address form. When I filled it out I asked the lady if I filled it out with my first name that might cause confusion as I usually go by my middle name of Mark. She said to go ahead and fill out the form and just put Mark in quotations and that should make everything clear. Then last week I received a letter from the post office addressed to “Mark” acknowledging my change of address. I was meaning to go to the post office to ask if that applied to my first name as well. I haven't updated my drivers license or car registration yet because I'm...

Weight: 306.4 lbs ( 139.0 kg) BMI: 39.3 Waist: 52 in ( 132.1 cm) WtHr: 70.3% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs https://youtu.be/l5bQ0Y0FXWQ Lunch: Bar-S Hot Dogs Dinner: Baked Chicken https://youtu.be/rfHQy-XdDxE Drinks: Apple Cider Vinegar Salted Coffee, Seltzer, Monster, Red Bull, Powerade Zero Sober Year 1 (Day 491) Keto Month 1 (Day 54) (98/365 Days 2026 Keto) Scale is going in the right direction. But tape measure is still lost so can't tell if that is going anywhere. The gut does feel like it's going in the right direction, but I need to find that tape measure. I was able to bake some chicken before heading to work. I lost track of time before work so I had to hurry in. I worked 2pm to 10 pm so I figured that I could eat something before work and call the “lunch break” dinner. But as I had lost track of time I didn't have time to eat anything so I grabbed a pack of hot dogs and ate those before clocking in. Dealt with a low level headache all day long. I woke up with...

Sitting at the computer I can't even keep my eyes open, but when I go to bed my brain is doing jumping jacks and back flips. Waking up this morning I think I figured out why they call that breed of dog a “shit zu” Mom's little dog Shelby was just yapping her little head off. I hadn't fallen asleep until 2:30, but there goes Shelby yapping around at around 7:45.  Good loss on the scale. The tape measure seems to have gone missing, but that number doesn't change much so I'll just assume that it's the same as yesterday's. Spent the day at the computer. Having another day where I...

This morning after breakfast I put a pork steak in the oven for lunch. Mom was working on cleaning the kitchen and I thought I'd be clever and stay out of her way so after the pork steak was done baking I turned off the oven and waited while she cleaned the kitchen as I kind of felt bad that I was cooking while she was trying to clean. She brushed it off, but I still felt bad for making a mess while she was cleaning up a mess. The thing is that after the steak was done baking I had just left it in the hot oven for a while. So yeah, it was quite cooked...

Had a bit of a hard time getting up this morning as I was just so comfortable. I did have an argument with myself because it is my day off, but if I lay in bed all day I'll get frustrated that I didn't do anything when I was off of work. I was slow getting up and going around. It was about the usual 8am by the time I got out of the bedroom, but was still slow getting around. By the time I got up and going it was kind of late to get coffee. I did get the laundry done today. Which is a bit quicker now that I'm doing it weekly instead of monthly. I also managed to take the inventory of the meat I have in the garag...

A little annoyed by the scale. Yesterday was up 0.1 lbs, today is down 0.1 lbs. Kinda makes you wonder the point. A “stall” is four weeks to several months. It was nice when the weight was dropping quickly, not sure if that stage is over for a bit. Who knows perhaps that time when it was dropping like crazy was the easy part and now is when Dr Berry's “Vitamin P” comes into play. Step-Dad was nice enough to cook breakfast this morning. Was surprised to see that all of the eggs were double yolked. Going to buy a lottery ticket. Trying to think of things to do before I go to work. But really couldn'...

Brain and body just weren't as tired as my mind. Weight is up, but not going to worry too much about 0.1 lbs Baked a pork loin before work for lunch. That might be two lunches in that lunchbox. Mom offered to take a pork steak out of the freezer for me. She said that she and Step-Dad will be done eating long before I get home so I can grill it myself. I was a bit annoyed by my phone as it wasn't perfectly on the charge plate last night so when I woke up this at 7am morning it was only 45% charged. When I put it on the charge plate it said that it'd take just over three to charge....
