We'll see if that continues Trying to think of anything to say. But when I got home my brain just shut down. Today went really smoothly. The store has a promotion for $5 dozen donuts and someone had bought several dozen for the break room. I know that I shouldn't have, but I had a couple of them during my 15 minute break as I had worked a 5:3 split today. Having donuts resets the Keto Kount. I thought about not saying anything, because nobody would know if I didn't tell anybody. But a lie of omission is still a lie, and I'd just be lying to myself. I did grab some sour cream for the Gumbo, and that did tur...

Decaffeination Day 6

Decaffeination Day 6
Weight: 335.0 lbs
Waist: 55 inches


wow, that was a hell of a drop in weight for a single day. But than again I haven't been drinking the water I wanted to be drinking. I wont make too many excuses for a eight pound drop in a single day though.
I was talking with a co-worker. And the last two weeks have NOT been normal. We've been having giant swarms of people checking out with massive cartloads of groceries. And nobody seems to be showing up for work. What few people are scheduled to be there anyway. Everyday for the last week and a half I've arrived at work and the entire schedule for the day is in the process of being reworked because one person called in, another no called no showed, and one more is scheduled to be at another store altogether. They say that this is a particularly bad flu season, but goddamn people, this can't go on like this much longer.
I'm seriously wondering how much caffeine effects the mind. Are those little 5 hour energy shots magic elixirs that just make human behavior make sense? It reminds me of the episode of the Simpsons when Homer quit drinking and discovered how boring Baseball was. But for me I'm seeing the insanity of the people.
I didn't have to work yesterday and I didn't work until later this afternoon and I have to say that the two full eight hour nights of sleep really did help me mentally. I have noticed that I sleep about eight hours naturally (when I don't need to be awoken by an alarm clock) I've never really had trouble sleeping before, but there is a definite difference between now and before when I was drinking caffeine all day. But right now I am very tired, and I have to work in the morning.

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: 335.2 lbs ( 152 kg) BMI: 43 Waist: 56 in (142.2 cm) WtHr: 75.7% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Southwestern Detox Soup Dinner: Ham Steak Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Red Bull, Keto Week 2 (Day 19) Sober Month 3 (Day 113) YMCA: No The weight was up today. But still down for the month and amazing progress for the year. The bacon was looking a bit rough when I cooked it this morning. It was just kind of gray while it cooked. I don't know if it's going bad on me, but I'm hoping it can stick it out until Tuesday. I did get around to getting the guts to share my opinion on what is probably going to happen when/if President Trump gets his way with the tariffs  Amazing weather outside today. It was nice enough to open up the windows and turn off the heater. When I came home for lunch Roommate was taking a nap, but I heard a strange banging coming from upstairs. It sounded like he kept slamming his door. But then I remembered that I had my wind...

Weight: 335.4lbs ( 152.9 kg) BMI: 43.1 Waist: 57 in (144.8 cm) WtHr: 77% Breakfast: Pork Steak and Eggs Lunch: Kroger Jalapeno Cheddar Bratwursts Dinner: BBQ Chuck Roast Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Red Bull, Keto Week 1 (Day 9) Sober Month 3 (Day 103) YMCA: No Legs were stiff and sore this morning. That's the excuse I used to not go to the YMCA. Still had great progress on the weigh in. But if I'm wanting to make more progress I'm going to have to get going over there. And again I'm thinking that my gut is changing shape because I wore one of my 2X shirts and it almost fits right. I still have to adjust the front of it as I stand up. But at least my gut isn't hanging out of the front of the shirt. Or at least not as much as it has been. The pork steaks that I had for dinner last night came in a pack of three so I had one for breakfast this morning. And I did find another steak in the fridge. So that'll be tomorrow's breakfast. I di...
