I realized that it was getting kind of late so I should wrap up the blog post. But then I saw that I hadn't even opened any of the programs today. I could have sworn that I was staring at them all day. Now I'm trying to think of how much I remembered from today was actually yesterday. I really wasn't wanting to go back to work Sunday, but it might not be a bad idea.  I do know that I was pretty excited this morning as it was the payday that I was planning on transferring money from Bill Savings to pay off the credit card and transferring money into the House Savings. I spent a little bit more on the credit car...

Weight: 303.1 lbs ( 137.5 kg) BMI: 38.9 Waist: 50.5 in ( 128.3 cm) WtHr: 68.2% Breakfast: Sausage Patties, Cheese, and Eggs Lunch: No Bean Chili Cottage cheese Dinner: Pork Steak cooked in Onions and Peppers Drinks: Monster, Sparkling Water, Celsius Energy Sober Year 1 (Day 632) Keto Month 6 (Day 201) (246/365 Days 2026 Keto) I worked 9am to 6pm today so I set some alarms to wake myself up as I usually wake up at 8am and if I woke up normally I would have to jump up and run out of the door. I didn't have time again to have any coffee. I did have time to cook a couple of the sausage patties and eggs. I don't know if there's a whole lot of time difference in cooking the sausage patties or cooking bacon. But I figured that the sausage was quicker. I only managed to finish eating before I had to run out of the door. I was in the desk for the majority of the day. There were some moments of frustration as people seemed to be in a rush so a lot of people would quickly ye...

Really excited that the credit card finally came in. Not in the manner of “Whoohoo shopping spree!” but more in the manner of I've spent the last month or so planning and waiting for this puzzle piece to come in. I didn't get the posts done in the last couple of days as the other night I was watching the lunar eclipse and last night when I got home the credit card was here and I did another rebalance of the budget plan. The last rebalance was because there is a $5 bonus for signing up for autopay on the phone bill, but when I tried to put the credit card on the autopay it said that the card w...

Weight: 302.8 lbs ( 137.3 kg) BMI: 38.9 Waist: 51.0 in ( 129.5 cm) WtHr: 68.9% Breakfast: Sausage Eggs Cheese Lunch: Bratwursts Dinner: Pork Steak Drinks: Salted Coffee, Monster, Sparkling Water, Celsius Sober Year 1 (Day 593) Keto Month 5 (Day 159) (204/365 Days 2026 Keto) Slept a lot better last night than I did the night before. Whatever was causing that soreness in my belly seems to have started healing. Still not sure what caused it, but I did notice the soreness after I was at the DMV. So maybe I sat down too long and jumped up to harshly and pulled something? IDK, but it feels a lot better this evening. Probably because I got to bed last night pretty early I woke up earlier than usual this morning. The watch gave me a pretty low “Sleep Score” because it said that I woke up at 3am and for awhile after that. I don't remember waking up. I'm guessing that there was a system update and since it couldn't track my sleep it didn't think that I was asleep. I'm...

Weight: 302.7 lbs ( 137.3 kg) BMI: 38.9 Waist: 52.5 in ( 133.4 cm) WtHr: 70.9% Breakfast: Rib-Eye Steak and Eggs Lunch: Pork Steak Dinner: Cheeseburger Patties Drinks: Monster, Sparkling Water, Sober Year 1 (Day 591) Keto Month 5 (Day 157) (202/365 Days 2026 Keto) Had a bit of a hard time falling asleep last night. I think I had too many energy drinks again yesterday. Kind of that feedback loop I'm tired so I drink energy drinks all day, so I don't sleep right, so I am tired the next day, so I buy too many energy drinks the next day. I'm not going to go full decaffeinated, but I do think I'll try to cut down on how many I drink a day. Especially as I had a couple of cans today and I felt no effect from them. Another thing that probably made me tired was the fact that I finally got around to getting to the DMV to get my Drivers License updated. It wasn't going to expire for another 5 years, but the credit card applications have a line that ask about Physical ...

Weight: 302.9 lbs ( 137.4 kg) BMI: 38.9 Waist: 52 in ( 132.1 cm) WtHr: 70.3% Breakfast: Savage Slim Jim, Vienna Sausages Lunch: Air Fryer Pork Steak Snack: Savage Slim Jim Dinner: Pan Fried Pork Steak Drinks: Salted Coffee, Monster, Sparkling Water, Sober Year 1 (Day 581) Keto Month 4 (Day 142) (192/365 Days 2026 Keto) Down in wight this morning, but not by enough to get that excited about. I was still curious about the air fryer so I thought of cooking a pork steak for lunch. I do have to say that is a quick and convenient way to cook that steak. I was excited that the issue with the phone plugging in has seemed to clear with that cleaning I did a while back. I was trying to get the phone to connect to the car. But it still doesn't seem to want to connect. The blue tooth hasn't worked for a while, but I was hoping that the wired connection would work, but the screen just says “Can't Read Device” I'm not sure if that's an issue with the phone, the car, or...

Weight: 303.2 lbs ( 137.5 kg) BMI: 38.9 Waist: 52 in ( 132.1 cm) WtHr: 70.3% Breakfast: Savage Slim Jim Vienna Sausages Lunch: Smithfield Pork Loin Garlic Herb, Pork Rinds, Queso Blanco Dinner: Member's Mark Hot Dogs Snack: Cashews Drinks: Salted Coffee, Monster, Sparkling Water, Powerade Orange Sober Year 1 (Day 580) Keto Month 4 (Day 141) (191/365 Days 2026 Keto) It's kind of funny to be frustrated by a weight of 303.2 lbs. I was so close to the “Short Goal” yesterday and it's been so very long since I had weighed less than 300lbs (136 kg) but no today had to be up 2.8lbs (1.3 kg) I'm still down 5.6 lbs (2.5 kg) for the year and the two or three pounds is within daily fluctuations, but it would have been exciting to beat that goal. But then again if I did have a weight under 300 lbs (136 kg) I would wait for a bit to consider that goal “beaten” for a bit just because the weight fluctuates like that. The morning before work really snuck by me. I woke up at the usu...
