Weight: 338.8 lbs ( 153.7 kg) BMI: 43.5 Waist: 56 in (142.2 cm) WtHr: 75.7% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Fathead Lasagna   Dinner: Pork Steak Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster Peachy Keen Sober Month 6 (Day 190) Had a hard time waking up this morning. I just kind of sat here at the computer counting down the time until I had to go to work. I worked Noon to Nine closing the Customer Service Desk instead of the normal 11a-8pm Supervisor shift that I usually do. I drank an entire pot of coffee, but I'm just sitting here zoned out. I had thought a couple of times that I need to get a plan together for what I'm going to cook on Tuesday for the weekly lunch. But then I zone back out. First half of the day went really smoothly. Not sure if I should write this down. This is being logged at lunch. I worked a 3:5 split so I went to lunch at 3pm and will have to work 4 to 9. The challenge of the first half of today was that I wasn't supervisor I was s...

Weight: 341.2 lbs ( 154.7 kg) BMI: 43.8 Waist: 56.5 in (143.5 cm) WtHr: 76.4% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Fathead Lasagna   Dinner: Baked T-bone Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Red Bull, Sugar Free monster, Michelob Ultra Zero, Sober Month 6 (Day 189) I know that “Happiness is not a number on a scale” but being up almost 12 pounds (~5 kg) over the month kinda hurts the morale. I've been feeling really bleah over the month. I'm not sure if that's because I've been off of the diet for too long. There is a fascinating link between Body/Mind/Spirit (emotion) health. Heck maybe looking at the weight tracking up everyday is hurting the mood. I haven't been making the daily blog, but I have been keeping track of the weight. But I often remind myself that each day is just a data point on the graph. I spent most of the week staying at Mom's house while she went to Yellowstone National Park. When she got home on Thursday I cooked up a batch o...

Weight: 340.4 lbs ( 152.9 kg) BMI: 43.7 Waist: 55 in (139.7 cm) WtHr: 74.3% Breakfast: Strip Steak and Eggs Lunch: Keto Clam Chowder Dinner: Mac and Cheese and Smoked Sausages Drinks: Salted Coffee with butter, 5 Hour Energy Shot, Sugar Free Red Bull Sober Month 6 (Day 181?) I really need to get back to the diet. I've been sober since December, so yay Six Months sober. Not that I haven't been...Thirsty, from time to time. But I just have a hard time sticking to the diet. April really was the best weight loss progress month, but then May stayed really flat, and then June really tracked up really quickly. I haven't been at 340 since March and that average hadn't been since February. And today was the first time since February that I was over the average for the year. Another thing with getting back to the diet is Mind/Body/Spirit. Yeah, my feet, ankles, and knees are yelling at me by the end of the day. But I'm just getting off of work and just collapsing at my...

Weight: 331.4 lbs ( 150.3 kg) BMI: 42.5 Waist: 54 in (137.2 cm) WtHr: 73% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Pizza Soup  Classic Potato Chips Dinner: Cheeseburger Patties Drinks: Salted Coffee with Cream, Sugar Free Red Bull, Michelob Ultra Zero,  Sober Month 5 (Day 172) Sorry that I haven't been posting like I've been wanting to lately. On Sunday Mom threw a party for Grandma as it was Grandma's 80th birthday. And after the party I was in a strange mood. I sat down and I just didn't wanta. I didn't wana anything. I'm not sure what that mood came from. I don't know if it was because of all of the family members that I was supposed to know, but didn't know. All of the stuff people were talking about progressing their lives and I'm just still sitting here just trying to get my bills paid. I know this blog is about me. But it didn't feel right to make a post saying, “Yay, I went to Grandma's Birthday, and now I'm sad” I feel guilty for tha...

Weight: 334.6 lbs ( 151.7 kg) BMI: 43 Waist: 54.5 in (138.4 cm) WtHr: 73.6% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Johnsonville Jalapeno Cheddar Sausages Dinner: Baked T-Bone Drinks: Salted Coffee with cream, Kroger Seltzer, Kroger Energy Shot, Sugar Free Monster Sober Month 5 (Day 169) Had a chuckle when I woke up this morning. I saw a headline that apparently the shareholders of the parent company of my store think that the staff is underpaid and they are supposedly asking the company to pay us a “Living Wage” of at least $19 to $20. Yeah, that's not going to happen. I had just gotten a 25 cent raise. Raising it to $20, would be a nearly 25 PERCENT raise. Which would be a fun idea, it's just not going to happen. There was a digital coupon for the name brand coffee last week so I had took advantage of that to buy “Black Silk” flavored coffee, and I can't say that I like that flavor, it just tastes burnt. I usually drink the Breakfast Blend of the store brand. Every once an...

Weight: 334.2 lbs ( 151.3 kg) BMI: 42.9 Waist: 54 in (138.4 cm) WtHr: 73% Breakfast: Pork Steak and Eggs Lunch: Sausage Patties and Cheese Dinner: BBQ Chuck Roast Drinks: Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster Sober Month 5 (Day 166) It is strange. Yesterday (Monday) didn't seem to exist. I remember waking up, weighing in, playing Oblivion, and then I went to bed. I really need to balance life and game time. Now I'm going to be frustrated that I had a day off, but I didn't do any thing. Oh, well. I was really quite excited for a second when I stood on the scale this morning. I even checked to make sure that there wasn't anything stuck underneath it. But I realized that it said “334.2” and not “324.2” I mean I would have really preferred if it had said 324.2 (147.1 kg). But not feeling confident that it'll say that any time soon.Waist still seems to be down for the month/year. So not sure what's going on there. Somehow I doubt that it's because I'm gai...

Weight: 334.2 lbs ( 151.6 kg) BMI: 42.9 Waist: 54.5 in (138.4 cm) WtHr: 73.6% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Keto Clam Chowder Snack: Savage Slim Jim Dinner: Velveeta Hamburger Skillet Dinner Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Unsweetened Tea Sober Month 5 (Day 164) It's June now and I'm still fighting against writing "April" in the title in each post.  Used up the last of the bacon this morning at breakfast. I'm glad that I have bacon on the shopping list for the week. I was excited last week when I did the inventory and it looked like I had enough Lunch and Dinner components to not have to do grocery shopping this next week. But I'll have to buy more Bacon, Eggs, and Seltzer. And there is a Digital Coupon on Bratwursts (not sponsored) this week and if there's a coupon on something you have to buy that thing right? Had a weird feeling as I was going into work. It was like a light floaty feeling. Have you ever had a heavy sobbing cry? Just wept...
