Weight: 331.0 lbs ( 150.1 kg) BMI: 42.5 Waist: 54 in (137.2 cm) WtHr: 73% Breakfast: Strip steak and Eggs Lunch: Baked Chicken Quarter  Dinner: Pork Steak Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, Sober Month 8 (Day 260) Keto Week 2 (Day 15) Forgot to post yesterday. I just got distracted by Minecraft. I had finished the Grand Staircase down to Bedrock. And got the idea of making a REALLY BIG ROOM. I had “finished” a 20X30 room that was 10 high. Then the mental nagging got to me. That's not square. Why isn't it square. I had to make it square. I spent all of yesterday and a good chunk of today making it a square 30x30 room...but that's not a cube. Why isn't it a cube? So I'm not exaggerating when I say that I spent the last two days just sitting here at the computer making the REALLY BIG ROOM. Right now it's 30X30X20. I hope I don't get too absorbed by this but I will work on it from time to time to make it the 30 cube. But I really don...

Weight: 331.0 lbs ( 150.1 kg) BMI: 42.5 Waist: 54 in (137.2 cm) WtHr: 73% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Baked Chicken   Dinner: Diced Beef Taco Salad Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, Sober Month 8 (Day 248) Keto Day 3 When I went to bed last night I was going to read for a little bit, but I just went right to bed. The last thing I remember is that I haven't tried to meditate in a long time...and then I woke up this morning. So I guess that it worked. Kind of growling at the scale this morning. Happiness is not a number on the scale, fluctuations happen, still under average yada yadda etc etc. It is exciting that this weigh in brings 2025 under the average for 2023 making this year have the lowest average weight of the decade (so far) It would be fun to have a year that would be lower than any in the 2010's as I had stared back in 2014.  It is curious that the checks I wrote on Tuesday hadn't landed by Noon. Tuesday's check usually dr...

Weight: 331.0 lbs ( 150.1 kg) BMI: 42.5 Waist: 55 in (139.7 cm) WtHr: 74.3% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Zuppa Toscana   Dinner: Grilled Ham Steak Drinks: Salted Coffee with Cream, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster Sober Month 7 (Day 222) Keto Day 5 I just said some bad words.  I forgot to post yesterday as I had gotten distracted by an idea of a new spreadsheet. I was going to stack up the data from one of them to get an idea of what an average weight per day was and maybe get a projection of the future weights. I had worked on that spreadsheet for the better part of two days...without saving. I really need to start remembering to save projects. I had all three original spreadsheets and the Daily Blog open and they all decided to crash just scrapping the data from the last two days. I'm going to pass on making that new spreadsheet it was just coming out as just a bunch of noisy data and the graphs on that spreadsheet just didn't want to work out. I'll just stick wi...

Weight: 331 lbs ( 150.1 kg) BMI: 42.5 Waist: 55.5 in (141 cm) WtHr: 75% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Bacon Cheeseburger Soup Dinner: Grilled Burger Patties, Hot Dogs, and Pork Rinds Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, Keto Month 1 (Day 31) Sober Month 4 (Day 125) A full month of Keto. The goal was to do a full month of Keto and then talk to the doctor about how I'm doing. Now just to build the courage to actually talk to them about doing that. Not that I'm afraid that they'll say anything scary. It's just outside of the of the normal thing that I do. The game studio Bethesda released a remaster of their game Oblivion. And yes I'm laughing that they released a remaster of a game that I just downloaded a couple of weeks ago. I haven't looked up the comparison of my computer vs what it would take to run the remaster, but I'm going to guess that isn't going to happen. But Roommate downloaded it on his X-Box with Game Pass (...

Weight: 331 lbs ( 150.1 kg) BMI: 42.5 Waist: 56 in (142.2 cm) WtHr: 75.7% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Keto Clam Chowder & Tuna Mornay Dinner: Baked Salmon Fillets Drinks: Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, Keto Week 3 (Day 28) Sober Month 4 (Day 122) YMCA: No Kind of slept in today and that kind of sucks because I was scheduled 10-7 instead of the usual 11-8. so I had to hurry to eat breakfast. And didn't get any coffee. Nice to see another record low weight for the morning. Or at least I think it is I didn't have much time to test the scale a lot to see if it was glitching again today. I thought about getting a new scale when I get groceries next week but looking at the app the only bathroom scale that they have only reads up to 330 lbs and it would be nice to be at that level, I'm just not there yet. I have to say there's nothing that encourages me more to get the savings plan going than listening to Roommate playing Call of Duty. Every time he get...

Weight: 331 lbs (151.8 kg) BMI: 43 Waist: 55 in (137.2 cm) WtHr: 74.3% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Instant Pot Chili with Cottage Cheese Dinner: Baked Bratwursts Drinks: Sugar Free Rockstar Energy Sliver Ice, Kroger Energy Shot, Several Cans of Kroger Seltzer Cranberry Lime and Mandarin Orange Sober Day 3 YMCA: Weights I got the hours and days mixed up in yesterday's post so I was able to get to the YMCA this morning. And I'm wanting to do swimming next week so I spent a few minutes in the weight room I had to struggle with the thought that I was doing everything wrong and I was just wasting time. I tried to use the counter thought of “Doing something is always better than doing nothing” but I really couldn't bring myself to do much in the weight room. I did feel a lot more confident and sure of myself when I was using the treadmill. But then again that's just walking. If I can't figure out how to walk by now I'm going to have a lot of questions with mys...
