But only when I first stood up. Was excited to see another record low for the year. Still 8.4 lbs (3.8 kg) from the lowest weight of last year. But I'm still glad for the progress for the year. When I woke up this morning my right ear felt plugged up. Nose was drippy all day long. Not enough snot to get a good blow to clear the entire thing, just a bit of annoying little stream. I was really tired the first half of the day. I'm not sure if it was the weather or what. The last couple of days was really warm and sunny. Today was dark and cloudy. The ambient temperature wasn't that bad, but that wind was biting. The Google Doodle today celebrated World...

Sober Day 6

YMCA: X

     Strange last night I had to wake up several times to pee. This is strange for me. Maybe because of how many carbs I ate lately? All of the Seltzer Water?

     The up in the weight this morning is within normal daily fluctuations, so I'm trying to not beat myself up too much about the carbs in the last couple of days. Especially considering that some of those carbs were from a Christmas party.

      The European Cookies are REALLY good dipped in coffee. The European Cookies are kind of like a box of chocolates, (except you know what you're going to get.) it is a verity box of different cookies. I don't want to eat them all at once because, well carbs, and also I don't want to just scarf down the Christmas present all in one sitting. But these really are really good dipped in coffee. The salted coffee, and sweet cookie is a good combination. I didn't have very many cookies today, but I don't want to call this a Keto blog until I'm through them all.

     It was probably a mistake to take a weekly vacation the week before Christmas. Today is my first day back to work and it's three days before Christmas. And the first couple days back from vacation takes a lot of self control to stay employed. And that's during a normal time of the year. Now I'll have to deal with my “post vacation anger issues” and everybody else's holiday stress. Of course I'm writing this part before work, and it's more than likely a bad idea to go into work thinking of all of the bad things that could happen.

     I was going to make a “Mark Complains About Work Section”, but it was getting out of hand needless to say I made some additions to my Store Stories To-Do List. Something I'm a bit wary of is that later in the evening I was coming out of the office and missed a step. Now my left ankle is kind of grumpy at me. Not in a way that I think I injured it, but definitely in a way that reminded me that I'm really wanting to lose weight and was standing around all day before giving a really hard STOMP.

     Had Taco Soup for lunch today. I was kind of surprised when I tried to log it into my calorie counter app on my phone because the recipe wasn't saved. I've cooked this several times for myself before, and surprisingly it wasn't in the saved labels in my blog either. I know that I've had it quite often before. 

     Last week I got a surprise delivery. Apparently someone donated a crap-ton of Eggnog to the Soup Kitchen and they decided to leave them on random doorsteps. Roommate and I were joking about getting some rum to enjoy the nog. And this evening I was getting some chicken out of the fridge and saw the expiration date on the Eggnog. It had expired on the 18th. They were handing out expired food as “Gifts for the Holidays” Very neighborly of them. -_- Oh, well. The Eggnog isn't good for Keto, and the Rum wouldn't be good for sobriety.

I'm a bit annoyed about how long it's taking this chicken to bake. I'm trying to get to bed earlier, but it's going to be quite late by the time it's done.

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 ...

Yesterday I had the inevitable question of, “Oh, where are you going?” I'd tell people the various nicknames of our town. But nobody would get the joke until I tell them that I'm too poor to go anywhere I am just staying home, I'm just taking the time off because if I don't use the time off I'll loose the time off. And I'm not too upset about being paid for NOT working. I haven't told Roommate that I'm off this week, I think it'll be fun to see how long it takes him to figure it out. He figured it out when I didn't go to work today at the regular time and we had talked about one of his cousins coming over tomorrow to play board games and with the fact that I have Tuesdays off it ...

Apparently Verizon had an update that scans the phone to for malware. The problem is that it decided to make notifications that it had started the scan. And then sent another notification that the scan was done. And then a notification that it started the virus scan. And then a notification that the virus scan was complete. I was glad that these scans were happening. And I'm glad that the scans came out clean, but I'm not sure that I liked to have these notifications at 2 O'clock in the freaking morning. The weight was a little up today from yesterday. I'm not too worried about that because daily fluctuations happen. It's still among the lowest numbers ...
