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 ...

Weight: 351.4 lbs ( 159.4 kg)
BMI: 45.1
Waist: 57.5 in ( 146.1 cm)
WtHR: 77.7%
Breakfast: x
Lunch: Cheesy Ramen
Dinner: Mac and Cheese with bits of Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs mixed in.
Drinks: can of Diet Pepsi, 2x Sparkling water

Didn't have a clean pan to cook any bacon for breakfast. Tried to get dishes done before work, but it didn't happen.

Did think about walking to work this morning. The weather that we're going to have this week is my favorite kind of weather. Dark, cool, and a bit rainy. That is perfection to me. But then reality reminded me that my feet burn like crazy even when I am driving the two miles to work. Maybe if I lose enough weight eventually I can get back to the point where I can walk to work again. But in the 350's (>159kg) I don't think that would be a good idea.

Used the last packet of Ramen for lunch. :( Going to have to wait til payday to pick up another box. I know that Ramen isn't great for my diet, but it's going to be hard to pass up a lunch that is about thirty something cents a day

Another day at work where I'm wondering what I'm doing with my life. I'm the Front End Supervisor, the person that was scheduled to be doing the online orders had quit several weeks ago and nobody thought to cover his shift, inventory is tomorrow so none of the department heads are there for Person in Charge. So again surprise I'm PIC again! I'm Front End Supervisor, Online Pickup, and Person In Charge, while trying to be a cashier because we're critically understaffed. And the lady working customer service is one of those infuriating people that counters any complaint that I have being one person doing four or five different jobs with the point that, “The supervisor is someone who wears many hats” I'll agree that the supervisor (or manager) should be someone who can do anything that they expect their subordinates to do. But I am still only one person, I can only do one job at a time. My Mom commented on a blog link from a few days ago that she was proud of my and my siblings work ethic. That thought was one of the few thoughts that kept me employed today. (the other thought was “how the hell would I pay my bills if I didn't have a job?”)

After work for dinner I had some Mac and Cheese with some chunks of chicken thighs cut up in it. I was kind of surprised of the energy that I had after work. I didn't have any energy shots during the day. And after work I did have the energy to get some dishes done to cook dinner. I've been drinking energy shots for a while, and I've always been completely done after work. But today, I've avoided the energy shots just because I didn't have the extra money for them. And after work I just felt like a human. This is a unique feeling. Perhaps I should try to see if I should just avoid these shots for a while to see if this is a lasting effect.

I'm expecting a followup phone call tomorrow morning from the Human Resource group that I had on Thursday discussing the computer skills tests that I did Friday morning.

Please pray for me.
