Weight: 322.3 lbs ( 146.2 kg) BMI: 41.4 Waist: 53 in ( 134.6 cm) WtHr: 71.6% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs   Lunch: Fried Chicken Pringles Cheddar Cheese Dinner: Bone in Rib-eye Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Low Carb Monster, Sober Year 1 (Day 424) Keto Day 0 (38/365 Days 2026 Keto) I was excited to wake up this morning to see my Federal Tax Return landing in my checking account. I went ahead and paid off the remaining four months of the car insurances and re-balanced my budget to hopefully have that budgeted to be paid off all at once in the six month sections. It is cheaper to pay it off all at once. It was just last year right after I had paid off the first six month section my car's oil pressure sensor decided to crap out and I had to pay an extra $455 dollars right after I had paid off the monthly bills and bought a 3D printer. I'm going to be quite a bit more careful this year with the returns and I'm going to be loading up the saving accounts like I was wa...

Put a lot of effort into making the Store Story today. So this might not be a very long post.

It's a bit concerning that I am up 4.4 pounds compared to yesterday. I do realize that there will be daily fluctuations, but it does make me wonder for an explanation. I don't think I ate four pounds of cheese last night when I had the Queso Soup. Could it be the Cheesy Ramen that I had for dinner on Wednesday? Would that have broken my Ketosis and have me start retaining water? All of the other food I have in my fridge/freezer is Keto friendly so if that is a factor it won't be a repeating one. I only have three packs of Ramen left and only plan on having one pack a week or so and have no plan on buying any more after I use those up.

Today was crazy busy today. Last Friday of the Month, the weekend before a notable holiday (not quite a major holiday, but definitely notable) and there was a massive drop in the temperature outside and a threat of winter-like weather this weekend. So everybody was stampeding to the store to buy stuff to buy chili. I got so tired of the phrase, “wow, it's so busy today!” Yeah no shit.

The real frustration of it being that busy while being the Supervisor is that there will be four or five people shout chanting, “HEY, MARK! HEY, MARK” I've started shouting it back, trying to get them to understand that I can hear them, and have them hear what they sound like.

 The "Demon" was making some convincing arguments as the day was winding down, but I'm still dry. And tomorrow is the 7th day without any alcohol. It's funny when I looked up the spelling for, "Sobriety" the sentence that google used as and example was, "the price of beer compelled me to maintain a certain level of sobriety" and...yeah, that tracks.

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 ...

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...

Well At Least the Car is Fixed Keto/Sobriety Blog March 26, 2025

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 ...
