Weight: 320.0 lbs ( 145.1 kg) BMI: 41.1 Waist: 53 in ( 134.6 cm) WtHr: 71.6% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs cooked in butter Lunch: AI Pizza Casserole with Garlic Cream Sauce Dinner: Bratwursts Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Low Carb Monster, Sober Year 1 (Day 401) Keto Day 2 (19/365 Days 2026 Keto) I was going to go buy new shoes before work this morning. But I was scheduled to work 10:30 to 7:30 and slept in a bit this morning. I was able to finish eating the bacon and eggs for breakfast, but I wasn't able to finish the coffee. This morning I was planning on cooking a pork steak for breakfast as when I was doing the meal planning for the week I noticed that one of the pork "steaks" was the kind of knobby end of the pork butt that I had cut into steaks. But when I got it out of the fridge it was still frozen from Tuesday. I should be glad that the fridge is keeping things cold, but I had already melted the butter in the pan in preparation for the steak. So I jus...

Weight: 320.0 lbs ( 145.1 kg) BMI: 41.1 Waist: 53.5 in ( 135.9 cm) WtHr: 72.3% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Southwestern Detox Soup   Snack: Savage Slim Jim Dinner: Bottom Round Roast Mushroom Onion Gravy Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Low Carb Monster, Sober Year 1 (Day 397) Keto Week 1 (Day 13) (16/365 Days 2026 Keto) Was woken up at 4 in the morning to Roommate screaming in the bathroom again. Really reinforcing my savings plan. But was able to go back to sleep until the proper 8am. I was able to have breakfast. And was excited to see the “down” on the scale. The back of my hands felt like sandpaper this morning. I put some of the lotions that Mom gave me a couple of months ago. For a while I was doing a bit of an experiment with them doing the “Healing Lotion” on my right hand and the “Moisturizing Lotion” on my left hand. But clumsiness and cross-contamination made that impossible. So today I just put both of the lotions on both of my hands. I like how t...

Weight: 320.5 lbs ( 145.4 kg) BMI: 41.1 Waist: 54 in ( 137.2 cm) WtHr: 73% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Southwestern Detox Soup   Dinner: Smithfield Pork Loin Apple-wood Smoked Bacon Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Low Carb Monster, Sober Year 1 (Day 395) Keto Week 1 (Day 11) (14/365 Days 2026 Keto) There's something that's seriously annoying about being the same weight as the day before. I know that you're not supposed to get hung up on the day to day weights, but that's just an irritation. It was so very satisfying this morning when I checked by bank balances and the rent check had came through and it left me with the amount that I'm wanting to keep for the weekly allowance. Or close enough, it was off by $5, but that's how much I had transferred to the various accounts yesterday. Today was hopping busy at the store. There was a rumor that tomorrow is going to be, shock, gasp, horror, going to be the average normal temperature for January...

Weight: 320.5 lbs ( 145.4 kg) BMI: 41.1 Waist: 54 in ( 137.2 cm) WtHr: 73% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Southwestern Detox Soup   Dinner: Pork Steak Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Low Carb Monster, Sober Year 1 (Day 394) Keto Week 1 (Day 10) (13/365 Days 2026 Keto) Was woken up in the middle of the night to Roommate screaming in the bathroom. An up today, but ups and downs happen. And it is in the kind of pattern of two or three downs and then an up. Again not sure if that's really a pattern or if just random noise that my brain is seeing as a pattern. It is up from yesterday, but still down for the year so most of the projections are showing it go down. I was going to set up the slow cooker with a roast but as I was about to do that Roommate came downstairs complaining about how his stomach hurts. So I didn't feel like it was very polite to set up a slow cooker to smell all day while he had a stomach ache. I'm trying to think about what happened to...

Waist: 55in (139.7 cm) Weight 328.6 lbs (149.0 kg) BMI: 41.1 Mood: energetic Breakfast: none Lunch: Ribs Snack: Pot of Coffee Dinner: 5 pack cheddar bratwurst 6 pack Coors light Okay, it's been a long time since I've done this. I never really wanted to stop, I just didn't do it. The same with the Keto diet. I new it was what I wanted to do, but I just didn't do it. And now I'm back on the diet and wow, I can feel a difference, both physically and mentally. I've been back on the Keto diet for about a week or two now and I could feel the day that I got back into Ketosis. It felt like a cloud flowed through and out of my body and now I'm feeling just constant bursts of energy. Although that could just be the pot of coffee I just now finished off. But then again coffee didn't used to have such a strong effect on me. There have been times where I've drunken an entire pot of coffee and then feel like taking a nap. But now I fee...
