I have cottage cheese and hot dogs one day for lunch, the next day the weight is up. I have a recipe that I have saved for lunch the weight is down. I have Jalapeno cheesy sausages for lunch, the next day the weight is up. It's still among the lowest weigh ins for the year. And I'm still down 10 lbs for the year. I think starting tomorrow I'll start doing the tracking in my phone app again. Maybe start going back to the YMCA on Monday. I wont go tomorrow because with their Sunday hours they are only open while I'm at work. I'm thinking of trying to get into a habit of going into the weight room Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Maybe going to swim on Tuesday...

Keto Week 1 (Day 8)
Sober Month 1 (Day 47)

I was a Rotisserie Chicken again until about 4am. Sleep just didn't happen. Google says that Keto Insomnia is a known phenomenon that can last up to four weeks. That would suck. I really don't want to flop around until March.

Today was higher than yesterday's, but still considerably lower than the average for the year. I was down 5.4 lbs (2.4 kg) yesterday compared to the day before, I'm not going to be bothered by being up one pound (0.45 kg) today.

Since I didn't wake up very well before work I only had a single cup of salted coffee. I was able to have the regular Bacon and Eggs.

I worked a 3/5 split today as well so my lunch was at 4pm instead of the usual 3pm. As the usual lunch time came around I couldn't help but think of food. As I work at a grocery store I can't just have a snack whenever I want. But I did sneak away to have a stick of a Savage Slim Jim. I'm kind of kicking myself for having that snack. It was meat so it falls into Ketovore. But it was a $4 snack that I had half an hour before I had lunch. And it was a snack that I had because I was “mouth hungry” not really needing something to eat. Just wanting the flavor.

I did manage to avoid drinking excessive amounts of energy drinks today. Before lunch I had a Propel water Berry Flavor. I had a Red Bull at lunch, but that's about a third of the usual number of energy drinks that I usually have. I had another Propel in the second half of the day. I'm not sure if it was the electrolytes in the drinks or what but after I chugged them both times I had a moment of feeling lightheaded. Not in a serious way, just a bit distracting for a moment. I thought about having a Core Hydration drink like I had yesterday, but the three flavors available didn't sound good (Cucumber, Lemon, and Grapefruit)

Lunch was another serving of Sausage Spinach Bake that I found in the fridge. It's been sitting in the fridge for a couple of weeks now, but it was in the vacuum seal bag and didn't smell bad or taste bad so I'm sure that it was fine.

After work I picked up a couple of steaks. I didn't really have anything else planned.

A lot of Social Media is exploding about President Trump's Tariff plan. Nobody in real life seems to be saying anything so far. I am trying to stay neutral on political things. People get way too passionate about their side being “right” and the other side being “wrong” to have a objective view on things. I'm not sure how putting extra taxes on everything makes prices go down, but that might not be the plan anymore. I'm not sure how long in advance they plan out the weekly ad, but I'm willing to bet that we wont see the effect of the rising tariffs for several weeks. Well in the grocery store anyway. Who knows what's going to happen with fuel prices those flip around whenever they feel like.
