Weight: 320.9 lbs ( 145.6 kg) BMI: 41.2 Waist: 54 in ( 137.2 cm) WtHr: 73% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Baked Chicken Drumsticks  Dinner: Pork Steak Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Low Carb Monster, Sober Year 1 (Day 392) Keto Week 1 (Day 8) (11/365 Days 2026 Keto) Woo-hoo Finally have a day where I'm back under the start of the year! Of course happiness is not a number on the scale, but at least this makes (almost) all of my projections go down. That last projection won't go down until I get under 314.8 lbs (142.8 kg) where I was back in 2014 when I started this whole project. But at least that goal finally looks like it's within possibility. It was fun to mark where the “Lowest Last Year”, “Progress Goal”, “Morbidly Obese”, and “Short Goal” will be on the yearly projection. “Over Weight” and “Target Weight” are still too far away to show on the projection, but time will tell. And I shouldn't get too excited for one day under the start weight. When...

     Had a hard time getting started today. I didn't post yesterday, I decided to pickup a pack of White Claw. And I think it effected me this morning. It wasn't a hangover, and I wasn't still drunk, I just had no GO. I don't think it was depression, I wasn't sad, I was just so damned numb. (Okay that might be depression) Alcohol is a depressant and one of the many reasons that I want to be quitting alcohol. But then again it could have been a light hangover, I was thirsty as hell when I woke up this morning.

     I'm using blankets as blackout curtains to keep the sun out of my room during the day to try to keep the electricity bill down. And I need to remember to take them down at night. It is a lot easier to wake up in the morning when there's sunlight coming into the room. (I also need to get rid of alcohol)

     Today was another suspiciously smooth day. Especially as I was running the self checkout for several hours. It kind of helps that everybody actually showed up for work! You wouldn't think that would be a big deal, but wow that is a rarity lately. (heh, “lately” for the last couple of years) We were still understaffed, but at least we're understaffed with everybody showing up for work. It does make it hard to make a blog post when there's nothing to whine about though.

     I am proud of myself for not picking up any of the soda that was on sale last week. The sale was buy two 12 packs and get three for free. Soda is another thing I'm trying to quit. Haven't been doing very well the last couple of days quitting soda with the Red Bull and Energy Shots that I've been buying over the last couple of days. But at least I wasn't drinking the 12 packs of soda. Because of the way I drink I would have been constantly finishing off a can and then immediately grabbing another one. Another thing that is going to help me with quitting the beer is that the large cans that were on sale for $0.99 per can the sale has ended. They're $1.49 a can. So still quite cheap, but harder to justify buying.

     Over the course of the day I have noticed that my bones and joints have started to pop and crackle again. I see this as a bonus, I think it is a sign that the inflation and water retention is going down. This happens when I get back into the diet.

Weight: 332.4 lbs ( 150.7 kg) BMI: 42.7 Waist: 56 in (142.2 cm) WtHr: 77.5% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Keto Clam Chowder Dinner: Pork Spare Ribs Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Red Bull, Keto Week 2 (Day 17) Sober Month 3 (Day 111) YMCA: No Another decent drop in weight again today. But than again the scale was a bit glitchy again today. So who knows. It is annoying that the last time there was a record low the scale was glitching and then today there was another record low, and it's glitching again today. I was going to test the scale a bit more, but Roommate was already up and awake. Finally got around to making the second batch of Clam Chowder. I've been trying to cook that stew for little over a week now. Every time I tried cooking I was short an ingredient. I'd go to the store to get the ingredient, but then I'd be missing another ingredient. And it'd seem to be silly to go grab just one thing. And then the next day an ingredient ...

Weight: 335.8 lbs ( 152.3 kg) BMI: 43.1 Waist: 57 in (144.8 cm) WtHr: 77% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Baked Chicken Dinner: Bratwursts Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, Keto Day 4 Sober Month 3 (Day 99) YMCA: No Well, I took the car to the shop and when I said what was going on and I said that I'm praying that it just needs the oil changed the guys at the shop were really insistent that it was NOT going to be fixed by just changing the oil. And it wouldn't be a great idea to drive it back and forth too much. He did say that it would be fine to leave it at the shop until they get the chance to work on it. Some of their people are out of town on training so they wont be able to fix it today, but they'll really try to get it done tomorrow. They didn't want to give a time estimate without looking closer at the car. But they didn't seem to be worried and it didn't seem to be something that they haven't seen before. The computer ...

Happy New Year Keto Sobriety Blog Wednesday December 31, 2025

Weight: 324.1 lbs ( 147 kg) BMI: 41.6 Waist: 53.5 in (135.9 cm) WtHr: 72.3% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Enchilada Soup   Dinner: Grilled Bone In Rib-eye Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, Sober Year 1 (Day 379) Keto Day 2 The store was too busy to take many notes during the day and I spent, probably, too much time this evening getting the weigh in spreadsheets ready for the new year. Roommate was up all night last night screaming in pain. I'm a bit nervous to ask him what's wrong, only because I'm pretty sure that I already know. I'm willing to bet that his problems are something to do with his “Werther's Original Meal Replacement Plan” he's never been a big fan of the Keto/carnivore diets (The Proper Human Diet as Dr Berry calls them). He came up with the idea of whenever he gets hungry, instead of eating he'll have a piece of candy instead of eating real food. Kind of like how when people try to quit smoking they suck...
