Weight: 344.2 lbs ( 156.1 kg) BMI: 44.2 Waist: 57.5 in (146.1 cm) WtHr: 77.7% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Baked Chicken Snack: Sea Salt Mixed Nuts Dinner: Bratwursts Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, Sober Week 4 (Day 30) YMCA: X Finally some progress on the waist. I know that it's going to be a “Vitamin P” kind of thing, but it would be nice if the waist line was as dynamic as the scale. I have noticed over the last couple of days the gut had been more “Saggy” and soft. Good news is that means I'm losing fat, bad news is that it's going to start drooping under my shirt if I'm not careful. But I'll take saggy gut over sore feet any day of the week. And on that point feet and shins felt amazing this morning. It sucked last night a screw came out of the back of my computer chair. I was able to put the screw back in. And it seems to be holding, but for a while I was thinking that I was going to have to buy a new one. That would kind ...

11/20/19

Weight: 340.8 lbs
Waist: 56 in
BMI: 42.6
WtHR: 76%
Mood: Flat (but in a good way)

Brunch: California Garlic Seasoned Pork chops Grilled 1.68 lbs
Dinner: 3 Johnsonville Cheddar and Bacon Patties with Sliced cheese (2 slices of Pepper Jack and One Slice of “American” Cheese) with a bit of Ranch Dressing on top.


Notes:
I don't know if I can promise that I'll be all that consistent with these posts. Every once in a while I'll get the idea to do a daily food log / weigh in. but then it'll be several months later when I get the idea again to log anything in it.

Today I decided to start this up again because I was starting to be really good on my Keto Diet over the last week or so and when I weighed myself this morning I was down 5 pounds compared to my Sunday Weekly Weigh In video. And seeing exciting progress I thought I would start up a food log again. We'll see if I can actually stick to a food log or not, but I want to at least stick to the Keto plan.

I have long read that BMI isn't the best way to determine overall health (mostly that it doesn't account for muscle {not that I'm struggling with an overabundance of muscle} But I have recently come across a new measurement that is supposed to make a more accurate judgement of health: The "Waist to Height Ratio" Basically if you divide your Waist by your Height you can determine what your "Ideal" waistline would be. The "Ideal" "WtHR" is around 43% to 52% and my current measurement on this is 76% so yeah, I have some progress to make, but I do see this as an attainable goal

I did drink quite a bit of diet soda, but I didn't track the amount I drank. I want to finish off the soda I have and then hopefully break that particular habit all together. Despite the name "Diet" Soda is not good for you. I want to research the downsides of diet soda, but I have a VERY long to-do list

 I finished the night drinking diet soda with some whiskey. I have developed a bit of a bad habit with picking up a six pack of beer on my way home from work. I'm not sure why I went to the liquor store on Monday night. But that is another thing I need to watch out for.  My Dad (RIP) struggled with alcoholism and that's not something I want to pick up.

Weight: 333.2 lbs (151.1 kg) BMI: 42.8 Waist: 54 in (137.2 cm) WtHr: 73.0% Breakfast: X Lunch: Baked Chicken Dinner: Mississippi Roast Drinks: Kroger Seltzer Mango and Blackberry Citrus, Sugar Free Monster Sober Week 2 (Day 16) YMCA: no Woke up again a bit later than I would prefer, but I don't work today or tomorrow so there wasn't much rush to get up. But still there is a frustration in sleeping in so late. When I finally did get around to getting up I really didn't feel all that hungry. Dr Berry and other influencers suggest that you should only eat when only truly hungry. I'm not sure if that was because I had over eaten last night or because I just haven't discovered what it is to be truly hungry. But when I did get around to getting up I just didn't feel like eating anything. On the days that I do have to go to work I will have a breakfast before going to work, as I don't want to gamble with becoming “hangry” I ran by Mom's house to grab a c...

Weight: 330.1 lbs (150.2 kg) BMI: 42.4 Waist: 54.5 in (138.4 cm) WtHr: 73.0% Breakfast: Pack of Bar-S hot dogs (regular) Lunch: Fried Chicken and Macaroni Salad Dinner: Taco Chili Mac Drinks: Kroger Seltzer Orignal and Blackberry Citrus, Sugar Free Rockstar, Sugar Free Red Bull Sober Week 2 (Day 15) Really slept in today. Not sure why, it wasn't really that late when I went to bed. Later than I've been wanting to, but not really as late as I have before. I woke up early enough to wake up properly, but not early enough to get a proper breakfast or do anything that I want to do. I took the time to scarf some hot dogs, but not the ideal breakfast that I would prefer. Work was a bit strange, people were acting like it was three times busier than it was. This became a really long “Mark whines about work” post. But I don't want these to be that. But I did get a chuckle at one guy. We were down two people because they called in “”Sick”” right before they were supposed to get t...
