Weight: 312.4 lbs ( 141.7 kg) BMI: 40.1 Waist: 53.5 in ( 133.4 cm) WtHr: 72.3% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs   Lunch: Paleo Keto Gumbo   Dinner: Bone In Strip Steak Drinks: Salted Apple Cider Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Red Bull Sober Year 1 (Day 460) Keto Week 3 (Day 23) (67/365 Days 2026 Keto) When I stood on the scale this morning I was stunned by the number. I even moved it around to make sure that there wasn't anything stuck underneath it. I think I can go ahead and say that I beat the “progress goal” and I'm about a pound or two away from no longer being Morbidly Obese! I'm sorry, “severe obese” because people got offended by the “morbid” in the title “morbidly obese” Really annoyed at the waist being up. That's up to where it was at the beginning of the year so that projection is flat.  Wow today was not a very productive day. I just sat here at the computer staring at spreadsheets. I finished off the Gumbo and picked out the recipe that I'll make tomorrow for...

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: 324.1 lbs ( 147 kg) BMI: 41.6 Waist: 53.5 in (135.9 cm) WtHr: 72.3% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Enchilada Soup   Dinner: Grilled Bone In Rib-eye Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, Sober Year 1 (Day 379) Keto Day 2 The store was too busy to take many notes during the day and I spent, probably, too much time this evening getting the weigh in spreadsheets ready for the new year. Roommate was up all night last night screaming in pain. I'm a bit nervous to ask him what's wrong, only because I'm pretty sure that I already know. I'm willing to bet that his problems are something to do with his “Werther's Original Meal Replacement Plan” he's never been a big fan of the Keto/carnivore diets (The Proper Human Diet as Dr Berry calls them). He came up with the idea of whenever he gets hungry, instead of eating he'll have a piece of candy instead of eating real food. Kind of like how when people try to quit smoking they suck...

Weight: 321.5 lbs ( 145.8 kg) BMI: 41.3 Waist: 53.5 in (135.9 cm) WtHr: 72.3% Snack: Black Eye Peas Breakfast: Members Mark Hot Dogs Lunch: Johnsonville Beddar with Cheddar double cheddar smoked sausages Snack: Bar-S Jumbo Jumbo Hot Dogs Dinner: Christmas at Grandmas Drinks: Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, Sober Year 1 (Day 380) Keto Day 0 Had a hard time falling asleep last night, but was still able to wake up and get to work on time. Really good drop on the scale this morning. I haven't started a year under 330 (149.7 kg) since 2015. I've been lower in weight a couple of times last year. But I haven't been this constantly low for quite some time. I went ahead and updated my current goal to 310 (140.6 kg) as it's so close to the 320lb (145.2 kg) goal that it seemed silly to set that goal for the new month.  Roommate had started a tradition of eating a can of black eyed peas right at midnight. And eating an entire can of beans right before made me wake up with...
