But only when I first stood up. Was excited to see another record low for the year. Still 8.4 lbs (3.8 kg) from the lowest weight of last year. But I'm still glad for the progress for the year. When I woke up this morning my right ear felt plugged up. Nose was drippy all day long. Not enough snot to get a good blow to clear the entire thing, just a bit of annoying little stream. I was really tired the first half of the day. I'm not sure if it was the weather or what. The last couple of days was really warm and sunny. Today was dark and cloudy. The ambient temperature wasn't that bad, but that wind was biting. The Google Doodle today celebrated World...

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: 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: 340.0 lbs ( 154.2 kg) BMI: 43.6 Waist: 57 in (144.8 cm) WtHr: 77% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Taco Mix Dinner: Cook in Bag Kansas City Style Ribs Drinks: Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, Keto Day 0 Sober Month 2 (Day 89) YMCA: No Day 1 of Vacation. Yesterday I had the inevitable question of, “Oh, where are you going?” I'd tell people the various nicknames of our town. But nobody would get the joke until I tell them that I'm too poor to go anywhere I am just staying home, I'm just taking the time off because if I don't use the time off I'll loose the time off. And I'm not too upset about being paid for NOT working. I haven't told Roommate that I'm off this week, I think it'll be fun to see how long it takes him to figure it out. He figured it out when I didn't go to work today at the regular time and we had talked about one of his cousins coming over tomorrow to play board games and with the fact that I have Tuesdays off it ...

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 ...
