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 ...

    My scale is teasing me! (joke) I was so excited to be back in the 330's (~149-153 kg) I haven't been under 340 since February 2020 and I haven't been consistently under 340 lbs (154 kg) since early 2019. I know that daily weight fluctuations happen, but it would be nice to be back in the 330's I remember back when I was fluctuating back around 339-340 when I was under 340's my feet felt SO much better. I do know that when I'm under 350 lbs (159 kg) I have a lot more energy. So under 350 (159 kg) I have more energy, under 340 lbs (154 kg) my feet stop hurting, I'm looking forward to seeing what I'm going to feel when I'm under 330lbs (150 kg) and 320 lbs (145 kg)

   Once again I was in an amazing mood on the way to work and as soon as I walk in the door it just flipped. Today went smoother usual, it's just that I was informed that another person quit. I'm trying to be nice in this situation. Apparently last night her mother came by the store and told management that the kid was committed into a nearby mental hospital. I'm not sure of what all of the issues that she was dealing with, but she did seem to be quite manic when she was at work and it was getting worse over the last week or two. So perhaps she came down. So on one hand, I'm glad she's getting the help she needs; on the other, she was one of the few people who could run the self checkout. And we've already lost four or five SCO cashiers THIS YEAR! ALREADY! We're only four days into this year and we are so short handed that they are scheduling people for overtime. Several times over the day customers demanded that we open more registers, and none of the people making the demands would understand that the store is understaffed. WE DON'T HAVE MORE PEOPLE! One guy said that he's going to go shoot President Biden because he was “forced” to stand in line. I just can't grasp the sanity of that line of thinking. He was also upset with the president because he was confused about the lowering of the sales tax on food. I don't know why he is blaming the president for the lack of cashiers, the president doesn't control how many people are working for the private business that I work for. And the president of the united states has no control over sales tax at the state, county, and city levels. I know that there's no Federal sales tax, but I don't think that he'd have control over that if it did exist. I'm pretty sure congress would be the entity in charge of that. Sure you have the right to complain about The President, and I'm sure that Mr Biden leaves plenty to complain about, but let's keep the complaints to what he's actually doing.

    I'm a little worried about my debit card. I tried to buy some hot dogs for lunch, but the register kept throwing up an error that said it was declined. I have $3 on my debit card, and I was trying to buy a dollar and some change pack of hot dogs. A stranger in line behind me was kind enough to volunteer to pay for the hot dogs. I'll stop by the bank tomorrow morning to see what's going on. But for lunch I cut the hot dogs up into a bowl of chili. It didn't turn out as well as I thought it would turn out. It wasn't really bad, but it would have been better if I cut the hot dogs up smaller and if I had some cheese to go in it. (but cheese really does make just about anything better)

    Second half of work was pretty smooth. Had to work until close running the self checkout. Not crazy about running the self checkout, but it went pretty smoothly.

    Dinner was some of the chicken that I bought yesterday. I didn't have any BBQ sauce, but it still turns out good with just the seasoning on it. I did drink quite a bit of water after work. I'm used to buying soda, (or more usually the beer that I'm trying to quit.) but with my debit card not working I didn't get a chance to buy either of those things.
