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 4

Decaffeination Day 4
Weight: 338.4 lbs
Waist: 56 in
Mood: Hopeful

Okay, I was able to wake up and function without caffeine even for a opening shift. Had a hard time building momentum this morning. Feet were in some serious pain. Walking to work, two miles each way and then walking around for eight hours. Yeah, that's been having an effect. My right foot feels like there's a spike through the top of it and my left knee feels weak. I was concerned that I wouldn't be able to keep up with the increasing pace of the day. 

For the most part I really didn't notice the difference between this morning and any other day when I opened. I am really trying to not complain about work on here, that's not the point of this blog. I did notice that I didn't have to run to the bathroom as much as I did when I was drinking energy drinks. If I could get a bit graphic here for a few sentences. I know that caffeine is a diuretic. However I have been drinking more water, so I thought I would have to go just as much (if not more). Constipation hasn't been a problem either. Let's not talk about that though.

Something that I'll have to do some research on is that I am not getting very hungry over the day. Not that I usually get hungry. I am avoiding a lot of the calories that I would normally be taking in. Do empty calories count towards hunger? Can your body tell how many calories it's eating and tell how hungry it needs to be? Or is it a volume thing? Research needs to be done, but probably wont be.

Tomorrow I'm FINALLY getting a day off. Tuesday's are supposed to be my designated day off but the last couple of weeks the customer service manager has scheduled me for Tuesdays and I have been picking up a lot of hours as well. So my last day off was last Monday. I am off tomorrow. I am very, very off tomorrow. I was supposed to report for jury duty tomorrow, but that has been postponed. They didn't specify the reason, but there is a chance for snow tonight and tomorrow. So thanks to the maybe inch of snow we're expected to get for me to have a real day off tomorrow. I might to laundry...I should do laundry.

I am excited to be losing two pounds a day every day that I've done these blogs.  Seriously the only thing that I've changed was that I quit drinking soda.  I have been logging calories and walking to work a couple of days this week as well, but it will be exciting to see how long this trend will last.

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...
