I kind of wonder if I should have restarted the Keto Kount when I went to the buffet on Sunday for Mother's Day. Oh well, still down 10.7 lbs since the beginning of the year and 21.6 lbs since this day last year. So still making rocking progress, but I would like it if that progress continued, or at the very least not go backwards. Woke up at pretty close to 8am like I normally do. Actually woke up before the alarm. I thought since I work an hour later than I normally do I'd just go ahead and just lay there. But the dogs had a different idea as they thought it'd be ...

I guess yesterday's “eyes open jump out of bed was an anomaly. I had absolutely no “go” this morning. This really was the kind of day where (when?) I was just kind of waiting for the day to end so I could just go home. I keep coming back to the idea that I need to get a “Grown Up Job” I just can't but wonder if I ruined everything by staying at the store for so long. People tell me that I have a good work history because I worked at one place for over 20 years. But now I'm 37 years old with no education, other experiences outside of working at a grocery store. I've been told that it's never too late to go back to school and get an education etc. But I barely have the money or mental energy to work at what I'm doing. IDK maybe it's just a matter of having “Up” days and “Down” days.

I am proud that I avoided spending any money today. It seems like a simple thing to boast about. But working at a grocery store surrounded by the things that I have addictions to. Seems dramatic, but the other day when I was getting the stuff to get the recipe video that I was wanting to be working on it took just as much self control to avoid the Mac and Cheese as it did to avoid the Beer Cooler. Today as I was leaving for lunch I walked out of the store and thought, “Should I buy an energy drink?” But the counter thought to that was I have water at home. I did think about buying some more Seltzer Water on the way home this evening, but I'm thinking that the amount of Seltzer that I drank yesterday was one of the reasons that I'm weighing more today than I did yesterday. I don't think that anything in the seltzer is making me gain weight, I just think I tried to drink too much at one time so it was more about the volume than the ingredients.

And yes, happiness isn't a number on the scale, but it did hurt to see the weight 2.8 lbs higher today than it was yesterday. I'm just trying to remind myself that the daily fluctuations are normal.

Yeah, short post, but I can't think of anything else to say.
