    I didn't start the blog this morning. When I stood on the scale and it said 338.8 lbs I thought about giving up the blog thing altogether. I haven't been doing my diet the last several days and why even bother doing a Keto blog if I'm not even doing Keto? I keep telling myself that I'm not a failure just because I'm not following a diet, or just because I have some weigh ins that are tracking upwards. But honestly I'm not sure how much of that is telling myself that or how much I'm believing that. I need to get more done in my life. I do have several videos that I want to work on if I ever find the energy to do. I have dreams of being a YouTuber, but that'll only happen if I get around to making videos.

    For lunch I decided to go to Taco Johns. I was telling myself that I was just experimenting. I don't know why I was bothering with an experimenting what it is like to be off of Keto, I've been off of Keto for the better part of 36 years. And for the first and a half months of this year I've been feeling AMAZING. If I said that I was feeling even okay for this last week or so, it would be a bold face lie. After lunch I was on fire, but in a good way. A burrito and a soft taco and a sit down for a bit lit me up and I was up and going again for a bit. But a hour later I was back in the bleh again.

    Dinner was a pack of Kroger Cheddar Bratwursts. I did think of what else to have with them. But reminded myself that I was calling the “Off Keto” experiment. I baked them for a while because when I bought them they were still frozen on the store's meat wall. I should have just had some of the chicken that I have in the freezer at home. But I should have just stuck to my diet for the last week and I can think of quite a few things that I should have done and be doing. What I'm going to do tomorrow is get a meal plan together and get back to my diet. My legs/feet, my mood, and my scale will thank me. It kind of stinks that one week off of Keto will wipe out nearly a month and a half on it.
