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...

Weight: 309.5 lbs ( 140.4 kg) BMI: 39.7 Waist: 52 in ( 132.1 cm) WtHr: 70.3% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs https://youtu.be/l5bQ0Y0FXWQ Lunch: Pork Steak Dinner: Pork Steak Drinks: Apple Cider Vinegar Salted Coffee, Seltzer, Monster, Sober Year 1 (Day 489) Keto Month 1 (Day 52) (96/365 Days 2026 Keto) Trying to not get too caught up with the daily fluctuations, but the weight is getting pretty close to the “morbid obese” level again. 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...

Weight: 308.4 lbs ( 139.9 kg) BMI: 39.6 Waist: 51.5 in ( 130.8 cm) WtHr: 69.6% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs https://youtu.be/l5bQ0Y0FXWQ Lunch: Johnsonville Jalapeno Cheddar Smoked Sausages, Kroger BBQ Pork Rinds Dinner: Mixed Nuts Drinks: Seltzer, Monster, Sober Year 1 (Day 489) Keto Month 1 (Day 52) (96/365 Days 2026 Keto) Did fall asleep pretty good last night. 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...

Weight: 307.8 lbs ( 139.6 kg) BMI: 39.5 Waist: 51.5 in ( 130.8 cm) WtHr: 69.6% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Snack: Spicy Peanuts Lunch: Hormel Pork Loin Lemon Garlic Dinner: Cheeseburger Patties Drinks: Apple Cider Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Monster, Red Bull Sober Year 1 (Day 487) Keto Month 1 (Day 50) (94/365 Days 2026 Keto) Slept better last night...once I fell asleep. 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....

Still down 13.7 pounds for the year. Busy this morning helping Mom putting things away since the floor is all done. I was able bake a pork steak for lunch before work. Was a really running day today. There was a forecast of possible storms coming through today so everybody freaked out and ran to the store. I heard that a really good line of storms developed south of town. Mom said that Wichita got hit pretty hard. But as for our town it was just some dark clouds that developed and moved through. I do have to say that the weather that we got here was absolutely beautiful. It w...
