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 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: 330.2 lbs (149.8 kg) BMI: 42.4 Waist: 54.5 in (138.4 cm) WtHr: 73.6% Breakfast: Fast Lunch: Fast Dinner: Ribeye Drinks: Kroger Seltzer Original, Pot of Coffee Black, 12oz Sugar Free Monster Energy Sober Day 3 Very fascinating. When I woke up this morning I didn't feel hungry. Muscles felt weak and I had a hard time thinking about anything. Not that I couldn't actually think, it was more like I couldn't get one thought done before five or six other thoughts tried to jump in as well. Spelling has been hard over the last dauy our twe a swel  Had a kind of a chuckle when I stood on the scale this morning and I was back to the weight of a couple of days ago. Yes, I had beer, then fried chicken, starved myself for a couple of days, and that brought me back. But that's not a healthy idea to entertain. I'm not planning on doing 48 hour fasts very often. It was easier than I thought to do. But I don't believe that starving yourself very often is a sustainable i...

Weight: 341.0 lbs ( 154.6 kg) BMI: 43.8 Waist: 56.5 in (143.5 cm) WtHr: 76.4% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Italian Wedding Soup Dinner: Bratwursts Drinks: Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, Powerade Zero Orange Keto Week 1 (Day 11) Sober Month 2 (Day 72) Had a bit of a hard time falling asleep last night. Apparently Verizon had an update that scans the phone to for malware. The problem is that it decided to make notifications that it had started the scan. And then sent another notification that the scan was done. And then a notification that it started the virus scan. And then a notification that the virus scan was complete. I was glad that these scans were happening. And I'm glad that the scans came out clean, but I'm not sure that I liked to have these notifications at 2 O'clock in the freaking morning. The weight was a little up today from yesterday. I'm not too worried about that because daily fluctuations happen. It's still among the lowest numbers ...

Weight: 340.2 lbs ( 154.3 kg) BMI: 43.7 Waist: 57 in (144.8 cm) WtHr: 77% Breakfast: X Lunch: Baked Chicken Dinner: Cheeseburger Patties, BBQ Pork Rinds Drinks: Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, Sugar Free Red Bull Keto Week 1 (Day 9) Sober Month 2 (Day 70) Had a pretty good drop in the weight this morning. It is always nice when you wake up and have to poop. Always satisfying to poop before weighing in. It is a bit odd because I usually have to poo AFTER I weigh in. Of course after I have breakfast and a pot of coffee. So reweighing in would be pointless. And now that the post has started off on that brown note, I have to say that the waist is kind of down as well. It's closer to 56.75 inches (144.1 cm), but I round to the closest half inch (1.27 cm). I didn't have time for breakfast this morning. Roommate had to go to his daily clinic. I was going to do grocery shopping while he was going to his appointment. I was going to go to the 30th street store, but they were al...
