I kind of wonder if I should have restarted the Keto Kount when I went to the buffet on Sunday for Mother's Day. Oh well, still down 10.7 lbs since the beginning of the year and 21.6 lbs since this day last year. So still making rocking progress, but I would like it if that progress continued, or at the very least not go backwards. Woke up at pretty close to 8am like I normally do. Actually woke up before the alarm. I thought since I work an hour later than I normally do I'd just go ahead and just lay there. But the dogs had a different idea as they thought it'd be ...

I have not been well lately. I'm going to be honest I've fallen into the trap of alcoholism. For some time I've been picking up a case/pack of beer after work, drink that entire case/pack of beer and then do the same the next day. I was drinking Michelob Ultra, because it said “Low Carb” on the side of the packaging. This led up to $16/per night every night (except for Sunday when you can't buy alcohol). So this stuff has been poisoning me mentally, physically, AND financially.

I haven't yet noticed a physical “need” to have a beer, (although it's only been two or three days since my last beer) but I have noticed a lack of a comfortable warmth that the alcohol used to give. But so far the only struggle is against the habit of going and making a pointless purchase. And fighting against the excuses for running to the store real quick.

I would like to quit drinking soda as well, but let's just stick with one addiction at a time.

I didn't have the most Keto friendly lunch, but I had finally just gotten the dishes done. It seems silly to feel so good about something as mundane as just getting the dishes done. But it did. It's been weeks since I've gotten up and just got the dishes done. Instead of just rinsing out a pan to cook in and rinsing off a fork to eat with. So I finally got the dishes done and then I had to eat lunch. And the idea of cooking something literally as I had just gotten the dishes done was kind of a downer thought. So I went to a local restaurant for lunch. I was actually eating because I was hungry, stomach grumbling, feeling down etc. I'm hearing that the “traditional” three meals a day (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner) is one of the reasons that America has developed our problems with obesity. And people are eating because “It is time to eat” and not because they are actually hungry.

For dinner I had a rather large steak with some Brussels Sprouts and salad. I forgot to write what kind of steak it was when I had frozen it. But it was a really big steak. I did the dishes after dinner. Again this sounds mundane as hell, but this is a habit that I really need to work on.

I tried to get some spring cleaning done today. It was nice to open the windows and turn off the heater. But I really didn't get much done outside of doing the dishes and throwing out some of the older meals that were building up in the freezer. I did clean out the fridge a bit as well, it was frustrating to see the food that had gone bad waiting for me to get around to do another recipe video.
