Keto/Sobriety Blog March 8, 2025

Weight: 336.6 lbs ( 152.7 kg) BMI: 43.2 Waist: 56.5 in (143.5 cm) WtHr: 76.4% Breakfast: Steak and Eggs Lunch: Bacon Cheeseburger Soup Dinner: Bratwursts Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, Kroger Energy Shot Keto Week 2 (Day 20) Sober Month 2 (Day 81) YMCA: No Causation or correlation? I have cottage cheese and hot dogs one day for lunch, the next day the weight is up. I have a recipe that I have saved for lunch the weight is down. I have Jalapeno cheesy sausages for lunch, the next day the weight is up. It's still among the lowest weigh ins for the year. And I'm still down 10 lbs for the year. I think starting tomorrow I'll start doing the tracking in my phone app again. Maybe start going back to the YMCA on Monday. I wont go tomorrow because with their Sunday hours they are only open while I'm at work. I'm thinking of trying to get into a habit of going into the weight room Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Maybe going to swim on Tuesday...

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.
