Weight: 330.1 lbs (150.2 kg) BMI: 42.4 Waist: 54.5 in (138.4 cm) WtHr: 73.0% Breakfast: Pack of Bar-S hot dogs (regular) Lunch: Fried Chicken and Macaroni Salad Dinner: Taco Chili Mac Drinks: Kroger Seltzer Orignal and Blackberry Citrus, Sugar Free Rockstar, Sugar Free Red Bull Sober Week 2 (Day 15) Really slept in today. Not sure why, it wasn't really that late when I went to bed. Later than I've been wanting to, but not really as late as I have before. I woke up early enough to wake up properly, but not early enough to get a proper breakfast or do anything that I want to do. I took the time to scarf some hot dogs, but not the ideal breakfast that I would prefer. Work was a bit strange, people were acting like it was three times busier than it was. This became a really long “Mark whines about work” post. But I don't want these to be that. But I did get a chuckle at one guy. We were down two people because they called in “”Sick”” right before they were supposed to get t...

Weight: 331.2 lbs (153.5 kg) BMI: 42.5 Waist: 56.5 in (142.2 cm) WtHr: 76.4% Breakfast: Johnsonville Jalapeno Cheddar Smoked Sausages Lunch: Low Carb Goulash Dinner: Center Cut Pork Chops pan seared in butter Drinks: 2x Sugar Free Rockstar, Kroger Energy Shot, Kroger Seltzer Water Cranberry Lime Weeks Sober 2 (Day 21) Didn't wake up in time to get a proper breakfast or any coffee. When I did get up the ankles were really angry at me. The shoestring on my newer shoes had broke a week or so ago so I've been wearing an older pair and I think that's starting to have an effect. I'm going to pick up a new pair of strings on my way home from work tonight. But as for breakfast I was able to get up early enough to run into work and have some Johnsonville Sausages and some Sugar Free Rockstar Energy. I did have to clock in a minute or two late to finish eating, but I don't have a job where I can get "hangry" It is interesting that I felt more energized by the can ...

Weight: 331.2 lbs ( 150.2 kg) BMI: 42.5 Waist: 56 in ( 142.2 cm) WtHr: 75.7% Breakfast: Bacon and eggs Lunch: Bacon Cheeseburger Helper Dinner: Boneless skinless chicken breasts, grilled Drinks: Most of a pot of coffee; ~3600ml Water      It took longer than it should have to get yesterday's post written. I'm guessing that it was a matter of momentum, I hadn't written a blog post in a while so I kind of struggled with coming up with something to say and formulating those things into a fluid thing. I do have to say though; this morning writing all of this just FEELS good. When I try to look over this last week or two it's just a giant blank to me. But as I'm writing this down it feels like I'm contributing to something.      I didn't sleep very well last night. I was sweating like crazy. The strange thing was that it wasn't very hot last night it was only 63 degrees outside (17 C) but I was sweating like I was running through a boiling rain fo...

Weight: 331.4 lbs ( 150.3 kg) BMI: 42.5 Waist: 55 in ( 139.7 cm) WtHr: 74.3% Breakfast: leftover Nachos Lunch: Grilled Pork Steaks Dinner: Those were really big steaks      My brain just went flat after work last night. The first half of the day went just fine and smooth for those five hours, but when I came back for the remaining three hours people had just went bonkers. I think people had realized that it was a holiday weekend and they hadn't planed on anything after the weekend so they had to catch up. And I have a theory that the more people in an area, the dumber the individual person in the area and people were reinforcing that theory. Had nachos for dinner last night because I was really in the mood for some comfort food. But the corn chips I picked up were “Guacamole” flavored. But were just a nasty sour salt flavor. I do like very salty corn chips, but these had a really sour flavor.      Paid the natural gas and electricity bills today. Th...

W eight: 331.2lbs ( 150.2 kg) BMI: 42.5 Waist: 56in ( 142.2 cm) WtHr: 75.7% Breakfast: Bacon and eggs Lunch: Hot Dogs Dinner: Chuck Roast with onion mushroom gravy Drinks: ½ pot of coffee, 2x 5 hour energy shot, ~3600ml water     Got the weekly weigh in video done. But didn't get moving in time to get it uploaded before work I was going to get it posted during by lunch break. But I did a bit of shopping during my lunch break and I set up the slow cooker with a chuck roast for dinner. There was an amazing digital coupon on the chuck roasts. Digital coupons have a limit of five of them, so naturally I picked up five of them. There's a digital coupon on ribs as well, I'm debating whether or not to pick up more ribs. I still have a couple of racks left from the last time there was a digital coupon on them. They're in the freezer, so they're not going to go bad anytime soon, but I'm not sure if I want to keep filling the freezer with the same foods over and over. Bu...

Weight: 331.4 lbs ( 150.3 kg) BMI: 42.5 Waist: 54.5 in ( 138.4 cm) WtHr: 73.6% Breakfast: Bacon and eggs Lunch: Beef and Turnip Stew Dinner: Bratwursts Drinks: Couple cups of Coffee with cream      Woke up this morning with a little bit of a headache. Not surprising considering yesterday's indulgence, but was kind of surprising was the fire in the feet and the stiff calf muscles. Kind of brought to mind what a coworker had told me when I was buying that Bud Light Next, he said that alcohol in itself is kind of a carb and it breaks down into sugar so a “Carb Free” alcohol is kind of impossible. This might need more research. I do know that Doc Berry is very instant that alcohol is just a poison and nobody needs to be drinking it, no matter what diet they're trying to do. So I don't know if the pain in the legs and feet are due to body dealing with some surprise carbs or dealing the poison of alcohol; maybe the pain in the feet and lower legs is because my body is focu...
