Weight: 317.8 lbs ( 144.1 kg) BMI: 40.8 Waist: 53 in ( 134.6 cm) WtHr: 71.6% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Baked Chicken   Dinner: Slow Cooker Spaghetti Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Low Carb Monster, Sober Year 1 (Day 399) Keto Day 0 (17/365 Days 2026 Keto) First time in a while that Roommate didn't wake me up in the middle of the night screaming at the void. So hopefully he's feeling better. And during the day he did cough and gag less than he had been before. Today was an active day, mostly in the kitchen. I did the typical grocery shopping while Roommate was at his appointment. As I did my shopping at my store, and my store doesn't carry the Almond Flour that I was needing for the Fathead Pizza that I was planning on making for dinner tonight I was going to go over to the Big Store on the other end of town. But just as I was finishing the main shopping Roommate called and said he was done with his appointment. As I was grabbing the Almond Flour Room...

Decaffeination Day 5

-
Weight: 343.0 lbs
Waist: 56 in
Mood: chilled

Almost didn't get around to posting today. I thought I would take the day I got off to rearrange my living room. I have been meaning to do this for a really long time. (Mostly in the winter, my computer is next to the window and it gets REALLY cold) And it is fascinating to me that I have finally found the time and energy to do something that I've been meaning to do for a couple of years now that I am not drinking a lot of stimulants. There was a lot of other, arguably more important, things I could have been doing with my day off today. But hey at least I'm away from the damn window.
I did gain a little bit of weight for today's weigh in because fairly late in the day I thought of doing the drink one gallon a day of water tip I have seen a lot of.
I did manage to buy the fruit I need for the breakfast smoothies I want to be drinking. The smoothies are a combination of Avocado, Banana, Kale, and Pear. I like to mix up the fourth ingredient. The standard smoothie is avocado, banana, kale, with a cup of milk and a scoop of Vega protein shake. I used to buy Shaklee shakes. However they got too expensive to buy regularly.
I did gain a few pounds today, but again that is just a lot of the water I drank this evening. I only drank half a gallon so far. But I have really been sucking it down. I have large red cups, but I drain one in one go. I must have been getting thirsty since I have quit drinking soda. I haven't really noticed any symptoms of dehydration, but I haven't really been looking. I looked up how much water a person is supposed to be drinking per day. There doesn't seem to be much consensus. One person I read said that they suggest a half of an ounce per pound of someone's body weight I'll see what I can do on that, but that equates to one and a third gallons of water a day for me. And that seems like a lot of water.
I think that's going to be it for tonight. I have to put my living room back together.

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 ...

Well At Least the Car is Fixed Keto/Sobriety Blog March 26, 2025

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 ...

Happy New Year Keto Sobriety Blog Wednesday December 31, 2025

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...
