I just kind of sat here at the computer counting down the time until I had to go to work. I worked Noon to Nine closing the Customer Service Desk instead of the normal 11a-8pm Supervisor shift that I usually do. I drank an entire pot of coffee, but I'm just sitting here zoned out. I had thought a couple of times that I need to get a plan together for what I'm going to cook on Tuesday for the weekly lunch. But then I zone back out. First half of the day went really smoothly. Not sure if I should write this down. This is being logged at lunch. I worked a 3:5 split so I went to lunch at 3pm and will have to work 4 to 9. The challenge of the first half of today was that I wasn't supervisor I was s...

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.
