I was dumbstruck when I stood on the scale this morning. Ladies, Gentlemen, In-betweens, and Undecideds: I am proud to announce that I am no longer Morbidly Obese. For the first time in 10 almost 11 years I woke up with a weight that has a BMI under 40. This morning's weight was 310.2 which is a BMI of 39.8. Still obese, so still a ways to go. But at least I'm finally seeing progress.

I'm kind of impatient this morning as this Thursday I'll be paying the monthly bills for April. It's exciting I'm finally “regular” obese as opposed to Morbidly or Severely Obese whatever they call it now. And in a couple of days all of the bills will be paid and the only thing that I have to do is wait until Thursday, but today is Tuesday and I want it to be Thursday so my bills will be paid.

Also spent all morning waiting for Roommate to get up to go to his appointment. Writing this part at half past noon and he still hasn't gotten up. I'm going to assume that he moved his appointments to Thursdays as the last couple of weeks they've been on Thursday. Paranoid thought is that he no longer has the weekly appointment and had been lying to me about going to see the specialist. But I have no proof of that. I'm watching a video interview between MD Dr Ken Berry and PhD Dr Bill Schindler that is about an hour and a half long after that I'm going to do the weekly grocery shopping. I was waiting for Roommate to get up because Murphy's Law dictates that as soon as I leave to do the shopping I'll get a call from him asking where I went because he needs me to take him to his appointment. But I'm not going to wait forever for him to eventually get up whenever he feels like it. He did wake up at the end of that video and said that his appointment was for Thursday again. I asked if that is a regular thing now. He said that it was just for the couple of weeks that they were doing the special treatment.

I was about to put some chicken in the oven for lunch while I did my grocery shopping, but Grandma called me and said that she needed help with moving things around her house so I didn't know how long I'd be out so I grabbed some smoked sausages at the store and ate those on the way out to her house and had the chicken for dinner.

Again spent WAY too much on groceries. I was low on bratwursts and steaks so I stocked up on those. I'm trying to tell myself that since I bought so much this week I should be able to spend less next week. But that is something that I tell myself way too often. I took inventory before I did the grocery shopping. I was going to keep track of the additions while I vacuum sealed the steaks and bratwursts, but I had lost count while I was working. I'm thinking about recounting the freezer tomorrow before work. The lunch plan is together, I just want to recount the freezer to see how much I have in there.

Since I had a late start to cooking the lunch plan for this week I had a late start to baking the chicken so it wasn't done cooking until close to 11 pm. Roommate was whining about how he couldn't breathe while he was spraying air freshener around him while the chicken cooked.
