I keep catching myself just sitting here at the computer. I blink and it seems to be an hour and a half later. It was quite busy today at work. But the day went smoothly. There was a moment of frustration a kid that was supposed to work yesterday who had a doctors note about not being able to work for the next week or so. The manager didn't bother telling anybody until about an hour before he was supposed to come in to tell anybody that he wasn't going to be able to come in. Thankfully they were able to convince one person to stay late and another to come in on her day off. The frustration there was the guy...

    Got the weigh in done this morning. Quite proud of myself that I got all 10 weigh ins and all the daily blogs done so far this year. I have more 2023 weigh ins done by the start of March than I did the entirety of 2022. If I keep it up, by the end of March I'll have more posts on here than I did all of last year.

    I came home from work for lunch. For the last several days I've been wanting to set up the slow cooker with a chuck roast that I bought a couple of weeks ago with a digital coupon. It was in the freezer for most of that time so it's still good. But I keep forgetting to set it up before I head back to work. What I didn't forget to do was pick up a pack of hot dogs on the way out of the store. I keep saying this, but I really need to leave my debit card at home. Energy shots, soda, hot dogs, spaghetti squash/sauce, just didn't need to be bought. Sure it was a heck of a lot more Ketogenic than the stuff I had almost bought, but I still have food at home. Food at home that needs to be eaten.

    After work I was kicking myself for not setting up the pot roast and thinking that I need something for dinner. And sure I have plenty of chicken in the freezer, but I didn't think about that. What did sound really good was some spaghetti. And even if I wasn't trying to follow the Keto diet, the way I make spaghetti really isn't healthy. (I usually eat about half the box of spaghetti in one sitting.) It took a lot of self control to not just say fudge it to the diet and try again some other day. But I settled on picking up what's known as a spaghetti squash. When this squash is baked the inside of the squash goes all stringy and a lot of Keto recipes use it in place of pasta. I say that the taste of the squash isn't bad. But the fibers of the vegetable just don't cook into the same consistency of spaghetti. They're quite crispy (lack of a better term) When I mixed the squash into the sauce it kind of disappeared. It wasn't like eating the spaghetti like I was craving. But the taste of the garlicky tomatoes settled that craving.
