Weight: ? lbs ( ? kg) BMI: ? Waist: 53 in (134.6 cm) WtHr: 71.6% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Tater Tot Casserole Dinner: Ham Steak, Jalapeno Poppers Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, Kroger Energy Shot, Sugar Free Red Bull Sober Month 11 (Day 348) The scale and the HVAC filters did come in this morning but it was after breakfast and the pot of coffee so I didn't bother weighing in. And the filter isn't due to be changed until the end of the year, but it's good to have those in on time. I bought a four pack so the entire year's filters are bought and paid for, for the next year. Brain was kind of autopilot today. I was scheduled Noon to 9pm this afternoon/evening. I covered the Self Checkout for an hour, then I was a carryout for an hour, I was supposed to be Supervisor for three hours, but the guy running the online pickup had me cover his lunch break for an hour. I was kind of concerned because there was a compilation of orders that...

Decaffeination Day 1

Days without caffeine: 1
Weight: 343.2 lbs
Waist:56 in
Mood: tired...so tired

Today was the real first day that I avoided soda. I'm not sure that today would have been the best day to start this. Truly I didn't mean to start on the beginning of the month. But the day I decided to quit drinking soda just happened to be the first Friday of the month, the weekend of the Super Bowl, and there's a rumor of a snow storm later this weekend. I have a feeling I could have red bull on a freaking IV tree running behind me and I'd still be tired at the end of this shift. To be honest I did grab an energy shot but I convinced myself to but it back.
I did drink a lot of juice this morning. So I was really craving some sugar today. And one of the energy shot's that I really enjoy drinking is a Goody brand energy shot, so it is a pain relief energy shot so my legs and feet were missing that one. Along with a bit of a headache towards the end of the shift. I was told that a headache is one of the signs of caffeine withdraw. Irritability is also supposed to be another sign. But it was hard to tell if I was irritable or just overwhelmed with the literal hundreds of people I had to help over the day. Adding to the stress of the already swamped day we were already understaffed, someone called in sick, and the front end supervisor today decided to push digital coupons instead of doing her job. So the biggest shopping day yet this year we were short a cashier, a supervisor, and nobody in any department knew how to check. And one of the checkers was a new hire, one of the checkers has a very notable ability to piss people off, and another cashier has emotional issues. So not only am I trying to help masses of people through the self checkout I'm also constantly being called to the three other main registers. (Sorry got distracted complaining about work) but I do think I held it together alright during. It was a particularly stressful day.
The really surprising thing is my stats for today, supposedly I've lost over five pounds in a single day. I did weigh in yesterday in the evening, so that could be partially the food I ate yesterday. But I'm looking forward to seeing more of that outcome.
I'm sure that there was more I wanted to say, but it is getting very late and I need to go to sleep

Weight: 332.4 lbs ( 150.7 kg) BMI: 42.7 Waist: 56 in (142.2 cm) WtHr: 77.5% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Keto Clam Chowder Dinner: Pork Spare Ribs Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Red Bull, Keto Week 2 (Day 17) Sober Month 3 (Day 111) YMCA: No Another decent drop in weight again today. But than again the scale was a bit glitchy again today. So who knows. It is annoying that the last time there was a record low the scale was glitching and then today there was another record low, and it's glitching again today. I was going to test the scale a bit more, but Roommate was already up and awake. Finally got around to making the second batch of Clam Chowder. I've been trying to cook that stew for little over a week now. Every time I tried cooking I was short an ingredient. I'd go to the store to get the ingredient, but then I'd be missing another ingredient. And it'd seem to be silly to go grab just one thing. And then the next day an ingredient ...

Weight: 335.8 lbs ( 152.3 kg) BMI: 43.1 Waist: 57 in (144.8 cm) WtHr: 77% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Baked Chicken Dinner: Bratwursts Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, Keto Day 4 Sober Month 3 (Day 99) YMCA: No Well, I took the car to the shop and when I said what was going on and I said that I'm praying that it just needs the oil changed the guys at the shop were really insistent that it was NOT going to be fixed by just changing the oil. And it wouldn't be a great idea to drive it back and forth too much. He did say that it would be fine to leave it at the shop until they get the chance to work on it. Some of their people are out of town on training so they wont be able to fix it today, but they'll really try to get it done tomorrow. They didn't want to give a time estimate without looking closer at the car. But they didn't seem to be worried and it didn't seem to be something that they haven't seen before. The computer ...

Weight: 330.4 lbs ( 149.9 kg) BMI: 42.4 Waist: 54.5 in (138.4 cm) WtHr: 73.6% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Pizza Soup   Dinner: Chuck Roast Mushroom Gravy Drinks: Salted Coffee with Cream, Kroger Seltzer, Powerade Zero Orange Sober Month 7 (Day 220) Keto Day 3 Woke up with some itchy fingers this morning. Not in the greedy sort of way, but in the something bit me kind of way. There's a bright red spot on the base of my thumb and on the top of my right pointer finger whenever I wash my hands. Over the day the level of itch was low enough that it wasn't really that distracting. But if I was standing around not doing anything I would catch myself picking at my finger. Kind of surprised to see the weight progress over the last couple of days. Almost seems to be back on track. There's been a bit of a weight loss plateau over the last couple of months. Not sure if that's because I'm not following the diet as well as I would have liked, or some other issue. Yes...
