Weight: 340.0 lbs (154.5 kg) BMI: 43.6 Waist: 57.5 in (146.1 cm) WtHr: 77.7% Breakfast: Bacon and eggs Lunch: Low Carb Goulash Dinner: Slapdash Chili Drinks: Pot of coffee, 3600ml water  Weeks Without Beer 1 (10 Days)      Yeah, today's weight is up compared to yesterday's post, but I'm trying to tell myself that's just because daily fluctuations. Many places online say that a daily weigh in is just not a good thing to do. But I'm just such a data junkie I hate to see any gaps in the data. I'm going to guess the up for today is just water weight, I drank a lot of water last night. And I was forcing myself to eat those pork rinds last night.      Didn't have a headache this morning, but feet and calves are sore whenever I stand up. I think I've been spending too much time at my desk over the last couple of days. Today I did get the recipe video for Tuesday edited and uploaded. And an inventory for the meal plan for the next seven days. I've also be...

Today was the first day back to work from last weeks PTO and I was wanting to wake up early enough to get the Weekly Weigh In done before work. And I was frustrated all of last week as I woke up after 10am almost every day last week. I know that PTO is supposed to be time off to sit down, but it was frustrating that it was almost noon by the time I got up and going to do anything. But today I was up at the first alarm and up and going by the third. I was in an amazing mood... until I stood on the scale for the weigh in. ...

Weight: 340.8 lbs (156.1 kg) BMI: 43.8 Waist: 58 in (147.3 cm) WtHr: 78.4% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Millionaire Chicken Casserole Dinner: Bratwursts Drinks: couple cups of coffee with cream, 900ml water Days Without Beer: 2      Didn't sleep well last night this seems to happen when I drink the caffeine free soda before bed. Makes me wonder if there are other stimulants in them. Also woke up with a nasty stinging headache, it wore off as I got up and started moving around.      Seems almost blasphemous, but I'm kinda getting tired of having bacon and eggs for breakfast everyday. I think next time I get groceries I'll pick up some sausages instead of more bacon. There is the option of skipping breakfast, but intentionally skipping breakfast just makes me obsess about food all day. (Well, even more than I already do)      I did take my water bottle with me to work, but I was running Self Checkout until I was running...

I was also kind of nervous about posting a blog post because it took me too long to get the Weekly Weigh In before work, so it was one of those days when I recorded before work, edited at lunch, and posted after work. I think this might be a sustainable work plan, but had a hard time getting going this morning. The hang up is I shared the video on Facebook, and when I'm getting this done I'm also going to share it on Facebook and I don't want to annoy people with multiple notifications of "Mark Shared a Link" notifications. Or if I share too many lin...
