Weight: 307.8 lbs ( 139.6 kg) BMI: 39.5 Waist: 50.5 in ( 128.3 cm) WtHr: 68.2% Breakfast: Johnsonville Double Cheddar Smoked Sausages Lunch: Pork Loin, Pork Rinds, Queso Dinner: Cheeseburger Patties Drinks: Monster, Sparkling Water, Sober Year 1 (Day 618) Keto Month 6 (Day 187) (232/365 Days 2026 Keto) Weight was a little down this morning, not enough to get that excited about. I think the scale knows that I changed the goal so it has to mess with me for a while. Today again I worked a little earlier than I usually do so I didn't have time to have coffee or the usual breakfast, I did have time to duck in a few minutes early to grab a pack of sausages. I have to say that the first half of the day was NOT what I was expecting. Today was the first Friday of the month, the weekend of a Major holiday, and the State Fair is coming to town next week. I was expecting to be running ragged all day long. But for the most part during the first half people just kind of trickled in. I ...

I have filled the accounts before over the last month or so, but the last time it was full the car insurance was due that next week but now that's payed off I won't have anything that I'll need to pay for that costs more than a paycheck. (knock on wood) Since I spent too long staring at spreadsheets this morning I didn't take time to cook lunch although I did cook breakfast so I was good on that. Today was crazy busy. I guess that's to be expected as it is the beginning of the ...

Weight: 307.8 lbs ( 139.6 kg) BMI: 39.5 Waist: 51.5 in ( 130.8 cm) WtHr: 69.6% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Snack: Spicy Peanuts Lunch: Hormel Pork Loin Lemon Garlic Dinner: Cheeseburger Patties Drinks: Apple Cider Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Monster, Red Bull Sober Year 1 (Day 487) Keto Month 1 (Day 50) (94/365 Days 2026 Keto) Slept better last night...once I fell asleep. A little annoyed by the scale. Yesterday was up 0.1 lbs, today is down 0.1 lbs. Kinda makes you wonder the point. A “stall” is four weeks to several months. It was nice when the weight was dropping quickly, not sure if that stage is over for a bit. Who knows perhaps that time when it was dropping like crazy was the easy part and now is when Dr Berry's “Vitamin P” comes into play. Step-Dad was nice enough to cook breakfast this morning. Was surprised to see that all of the eggs were double yolked. Going to buy a lottery ticket. Trying to think of things to do before I go to work. But really couldn'...

Still down 13.7 pounds for the year. Busy this morning helping Mom putting things away since the floor is all done. I was able bake a pork steak for lunch before work. Was a really running day today. There was a forecast of possible storms coming through today so everybody freaked out and ran to the store. I heard that a really good line of storms developed south of town. Mom said that Wichita got hit pretty hard. But as for our town it was just some dark clouds that developed and moved through. I do have to say that the weather that we got here was absolutely beautiful. It w...

Weight: 307.8 lbs ( 139.6 kg) BMI: 39.5 Waist: 51.5 in ( 130.8 cm) WtHr: 69.6% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Member's Mark Hot Dogs Dinner: Baked Chicken Drinks: Apple Cider Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Monster, Member's Mark Sparkling Water Sober Year 1 (Day 482) Keto Month 1 (Day 46) (90/365 Days 2026 Keto) Nice down on the scale today. Armpits haven't been stinging like they were a couple of days ago. But the front of my nose is strangely red. It doesn't feel burnt or sting or anything. It's just I'm going around like Rudolf Kept pretty busy today. I opened and moved the boxes of flooring titles for the guy installing the floor. Finally did get around to grabbing a drink from the garage during lunch. Again being careful to make sure I call it the right thing as “Member's Mark” is the name of the brand of the sparkling water. And “Maker's Mark” is a brand of whiskey. It does make for an interesting idea of “Sparkling Whiskey” That make ...
