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 has been up for the last couple of days, wanting to tell myself to not worry about the daily ups and downs. I hear a lot of people online to not to do a daily weigh in because whenever it is up you'll drive yourself mad trying to figure out the reason that it is up. I'm going to guess that the reason is that I'm still processing the case of beer that I drank on Tuesday. But I'm trying to take the couple of days of ups too seriously, I don't plan on drinking any more beer, and I've made a lot of progress this year. So if I get bummed out by the day to day weigh in I'll look at the spreadsheet of the whole year. (I have a lot of spreadsheets) But looking at the spreadsheet for the year February wasn't as exciting as January, but I was a lot better at my diet during January than I was during February. Just noting a fact; I'm not going to be down too much about that. But I will try to be better for the rest of the month and the rest of the year.

    Or maybe I'll wait until next month to start up again (joking) Today for lunch I picked up a bag of chips to eat with the Deconstructed Pizza Casserole. I've been wanting to eat chips all week long. But the chips were like chewing on cardboard. The flavor of the chips were fine, but they all seemed really thick and stale. I was wanting something a bit more light and crispy. I've seen and heard suggestions for using pork rinds in place of potato chips, but I haven't had any pork rinds that I've liked. After lunch I didn't feel any physical difference after lunch while I was working. I didn't feel any mental effects either, but it's hard to see that from the inside. My left knee seemed to be popping a lot, but I just attributed that to the fact that I seemed to be finding myself leaning up against the left side of the register and there is a basket that is in that cubbyhole that wasn't designed to hold a basket so the basket kind of sticks out and I kept catching myself being leaned up against it. However when I got home and sat down both of my knees and both of my hips were popping, snapping, and cracking every time I stood up or got up when I was cooking dinner. Earlier this year I mentioned the “Demonic Rice Krispies” back then there was more of a release in those popping and crackings. Today there didn't seem to be popping in a release they felt more like grinding gears. I don't think that the grinding was arthritis but using a simile.

    I did pick up a case of zero sugar after work. I am wanting to avoid artificial sugars, but I'm also wanting to avoid carbs and ate a good chunk of a bag of chips for lunch. At least I didn't pick up beer. I'm probably not going to sleep very well with the amount of artificially sweetened caffeinated water I drank this evening.
