Weight: 335.4 lbs ( 152.1 kg) BMI: 43.1 Waist: 57 in (144.8 cm) WtHr: 77% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Fajita Soup Dinner: Taco Pork Loin Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Red Bull, Sugar Free Monster Keto Week 2 (Day 20) Sober Month 3 (Day 114) YMCA: No Last night I had a strange twitching in my left knee. Right below the kneecap. It didn't hurt, it was just like there was like a cricket or something jiggling around inside of my knee. I don't think that it's anything to be worried about just yet the knee is working fine this morning and again there is no pain. But it might be something to keep an eye on. Used up the last of the bacon this morning. I debated on wither or not to buy another thing of bacon. But I settled on just buying a smaller pack of bacon. It should last me until Tuesday when I can do the proper grocery shopping. When I got to work there was a new carryout guy. By the end of his three hour shift he was laying on the end of the ...

Weight: 336.6 lbs ( 152.7 kg) BMI: 43.2 Waist: 56 in (142.2 cm) WtHr: 75.7% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Johnsonville Jalapeno Cheddar Sausages Dinner: Cheeseburger Patties Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Red Bull, Keto Week 2 (Day 15) Sober Month 3 (Day 109) YMCA: No Weight is a little up from yesterday. But I'm blaming that on the jalapeno sausages that I had for lunch yesterday. It's a bit annoying, but I'm not going to let it get to me. Because I'm sure that it's just a minor temporary bump. This morning I did start editing the video that I want to upload for Tuesday. It really isn't a difficult or very long video I just can't seem to find the time to work on it. There's another thing to add to the list of reasons that I'm glad I'm done drinking. Before I went to work this morning my Grandma sent me a message that her hallway light seemed to be burnt out and asked me if I was willing to come over and change the bu...

Still up for the month, but I'm not too worried about that. It's only 1.4 lbs (0.63 kg) from the record for the year and the month is just getting started. It's kind of strange how it's only and already April so far. This year is blazing by and also seemingly stretching on for forever. Was kinda slow getting up this morning. I barely had time to weigh in and cook breakfast before I had to run out of the door for work. Breakfast was strip steak and eggs. But that's going to be the last steak and eggs for a while. The strip steaks came in packs of 3 for about $35 and the bacon comes in $15 packs that last for about a week and a half. So th...

Weight: 336.6 lbs ( 152.7 kg) BMI: 43.2 Waist: 56 in (142.2 cm) WtHr: 75.7% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Snack: Savage Slim Jim Lunch: Johnsonville Jalapeno Cheddar Sausages, mixed nuts Dinner: Rib Eye Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, Sugar Free Red Bull, Powerade Zero Orange Keto Day 6 Sober Month 3 (Day 101) YMCA: No Today was up in weight, but fluctuations happen. A little annoyed that yesterday matched the record low for the year, but today was up two pounds (one kilogram) and with the very few days left in the month I'll unlikely match that low level again before the next month. That's just something for Vitamin P. Still making amazing progress this month. I noticed that a shirt that was really kind of tight a couple of weeks ago was fitting a lot more loosely today. The waist hasn't dropped by a whole lot over the month, but I do wonder if the gut is changing shape in other ways. really having a hard time thinking of something to talk ab...

Weight: 336.2 lbs ( 152.5 kg) BMI: 43.2 Waist: 56 in (142.2 cm) WtHr: 75.7% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Italian Wedding Soup Dinner: Bratwursts Drinks: Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Red Bull, Sugar Free Monster, Powerade Zero Orange, Keto Day 1 Sober Month 2 (Day 85) YMCA: No Happy Birthday Mom. Technically her birthday is “tomorrow” but she reads these in the morning lol. She replied on Facebook to yesterday's post of me voicing my frustration of being the exact same weight as the previous day. She seemed more bothered by my frustration than I was. It's just that the same weight as the day before is a bit irritating. But when you get to it it's just one point of data in the stream. Had potatoes for dinner last night, but I didn't seem to gain much this morning. I didn't get to the YMCA this morning either as I slept in too late to get over there. I've been going to bed around midnight, but before Daylight Savings started I was waking up right at 8am...

Really Tired Keto/Sobriety Blog March 9, 2025

Weight: 336.2 lbs ( 152.5 kg) BMI: 43.2 Waist: 58.5 in (148.6 cm) WtHr: 79.1% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Cordon Bleu Soup Dinner: Flounder, American Blend Bagged Salad, Ranch Dressing Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, Kroger Energy Shot Keto Week 2 (Day 21) Sober Month 2 (Day 82) YMCA: No Had kind of a freaky moment last night. As I was going to bed I noticed a “sleep” mode on my watch. It made the watch face turn off, which I appreciated as it does randomly turn on which is distracting when I'm trying to fall asleep. But what was strange is that phone turned black and white. Had a bit of a hard time falling asleep last night. A memory of a frustrating customer popped into my mind and I was thinking of all of the things that I said to him, could have said to him, should have said to him, and the stuff I'm glad I didn't say to him. But the idea of him kept railing me up. I was tired, but I couldn't sleep because of the angry ideas go...

I have cottage cheese and hot dogs one day for lunch, the next day the weight is up. I have a recipe that I have saved for lunch the weight is down. I have Jalapeno cheesy sausages for lunch, the next day the weight is up. It's still among the lowest weigh ins for the year. And I'm still down 10 lbs for the year. I think starting tomorrow I'll start doing the tracking in my phone app again. Maybe start going back to the YMCA on Monday. I wont go tomorrow because with their Sunday hours they are only open while I'm at work. I'm thinking of trying to get into a habit of going into the weight room Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Maybe going to swim on Tuesday...

But the short of it is that he isn't going to go back to work in April. I could go into a long tirade of my frustrations there. But it seems self centered and it would be talking about his personal issues. I can't help but think that I'm going to have to re-balance a lot of things. I'm running really low on gas again so I decided to have lunch at the store. Tomorrow is payday so I was running really low on money in my checking account. I have money in my savings accounts but I don't want to get into...

Weight: 336.2 lbs ( 152.5 kg) BMI: 43.2 Waist: 56 in (142.2 cm) WtHr: 75.7% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs   Lunch: Leftover Bratwursts Dinner: Pizza Soup Drinks: Sugar Free Monster, Kroger Seltzer, Dt Mt Dew, Keto Week 2 (Day 16) Sober Month 2 (Day 77) I did laundry today so not much happened. I didn't have time to take inventory. So I didn't make a meal plan for the week. Had a late lunch because I was at Mom's house doing laundry. More often than not I would have had lunch at Mom's house while the laundry is going, however I had bacon and eggs right before I went to her house. I had leftover bratwursts for lunch because Roommate didn't eat his half of them last night after I baked the set of them last night. And he didn't want them this afternoon. He had gotten a rather upsetting call from his, er, former trucking company. I figured if he didn't want them I'll go ahead and finish them off. That feels rough writing that out like that, but I don't ...

I'm not a fan of the term, “Keto Flu” I mean the alliteration of “Keto Cold” fits so much better. This might be TMI but I struggled with the craps today. Knees and back are popping and cracking like crazy also. I do wonder if this is because of a lowering of pressure on the joints or some other result of lowering carbs The last day or two have had rather impressive drop in weight. Not sure if that is due to the “magic” of the keto diet, or just because I'm not eating the rather ridiculous amount of food that I eat when I'm not doing my diet. Had a late breakfast as I woke up a bit late. I normally have bacon and eggs, but I just decided to have something differ...

Following Up on Labs Daily Keto/Sobriety Blog December 19, 2023

Weight: 336.8 lbs ( 152.8 kg) BMI: 43.2 Waist: 55.5 in (141 cm) WtHr: 75% Breakfast: Bacon and eggs Lunch: Deconstructed Pizza Casserole Dinner: Slow Cooked Chuck Roast with Mushroom Gravy Drinks: Quite a few cans of Seltzer water of various flavors Weeks Sober 3 (Day 24) I didn't do much before the Doctor's appointment. I was kind of afraid of eating too much or drinking any coffee because of the effect that the food would have on the scale, or the caffeine in the coffee on the blood pressure. These factors are why I'd prefer to have appointments and meetings in the morning if I could. Not that I have had a whole lot of doctors appointments, but even when I work later in the afternoon, I spend the entire day counting down how much time I have until I have to go into work or that meeting. The bacon I had for breakfast was the bacon that Stepdad was kind enough to donate to me the other day. When he gave it to me he said that it wasn't very good quality, I thought he...

Two Weeks Sober Daily Keto/Sobriety Blog December 10, 2023

Weight: 336.2 lbs (152.5 kg) BMI: 43.3 Waist: 57.5 in (146.1 cm) WtHr: 76.4% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Green Bean Casserole Dinner: Bratwursts Drinks: Couple cups of Coffee black, A couple of cans of Kroger Seltzer Water Strawberry Lemonade Weeks Sober 2 (Day 15) Had a hard time getting the weekly weigh in done today. Kind of a hard time getting up and going. It was nice to be down almost a pound and a half from last week. It had been a frustrating trend for a while each week I've been down for each week, but the weight had been up from the Saturday's post. But this week I'm down for the week and also for the day. I am grateful that today was another slow and smooth day at work. When I got there I was told that the Customer Service Manager was wanting me to update the closing reports for the new year. It really isn't hard to do (but it did take all day to do) All that needed to be done was rename each file, change the dates inside the file, and clear the da...

Angry All Day Daily Keto/Sobritey Blog November 24, 2023

Weight: 336.8 lbs (152.8 kg) BMI: 43.2 Waist: 56 in (142.2 cm) WtHr: 75.7% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Southwest Detox Chicken Soup Dinner: Bratwursts Drinks: Pot of Coffee, Kroger energy shot, Sugar Free Rockstar Energy Days Without Beer 7      I went to bed early last night. The store closed at 5 last night because of Thanksgiving. And when I got home I just kind of shut down. I really couldn't write anything on the blog or work on any of the many things I want to be working on. An idea that I came up with was because I got off early and mind and body was just feeling like “hey, it's the end of the day were done now” even though I got off early and had a short day. The counter to that thought is on a normal day I do most of the writing on these blog posts after work (writing this first part before work though). The other thought it is probably Holiday Depression. I did feel like I was missing out on something, which is odd because my family going to have the fam...

Daily Weigh In Blog September 4, 2023

Weight: 336.8lbs (153.0 kg) BMI: 43.2 Waist: 57 in (144.8 cm) WtHr: 77% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Low Carb Jambalaya https://youtu.be/zVHiY9DJVjI , Powerade Zero Orange Dinner: Kraft Deluxe White Cheddar Garlic & Herbs Mac and cheese, Baked Chicken Drinks: 2x Kroger Energy Shots, Sugar Free Red Bull I decided to take the social media apps (Facebook, X, Reddit) off of my phone again. I've been spending WAY too much time zombie scrolling. I'm not going to fully abandon all of the social medias, they're my only window to the outside world, but I spend WAY too much time staring at my phone. A normal day I usually wake up around 8am, but then lay there until I have to go to work scrolling through twitter. This has to end. I still spent all day pulling my phone out of my pocket and looking through the apps. So...today was Labor Day. What did I do for Labor Day? I worked, yes I worked for Labor Day. Yeah, that does mean that I lAbOrEd oN lAbOr DaY! That is so cre...

Weight: 338.4 lbs ( 153.5 kg) BMI: 43.2 Waist: 56 in ( 142.2 cm) WtHr: 76.4% Breakfast: Bacon and eggs Lunch: Spinach Chicken Artichoke Casserole Dinner: Bratwursts and mac and cheese Drinks: Cup of coffee with cream, 2x Kroger energy shot, Water Days Sober: 3    Finally got up early enough to make some bacon and eggs for breakfast. Also had some coffee with cream in it. I've grown fond of coffee with cream, unfortunately I used up the last of my cream this morning. (Didn't even get the entire cup drank) So if I get up and going early enough tomorrow to get breakfast with some coffee I'll have to drink it black.      It's said that a breakfast is a good way to get more energy over the rest of the day, but I didn't feel much of a difference from today and the last few days. But I am feeling a considerable difference from this week and previous weeks. It is quite a bit easier to get up and going when doesn't feel like I'm standing on electricity when I...

Weight: 338 lbs ( 151.9 kg) BMI: 43.2 Waist: 56 in ( 142.2 cm) WtHr: 76.4% Breakfast: No Time Lunch: Cottage Cheese Dinner: Baked Chicken with Mac and cheese Drinks: Scooters Peanut Butter Crunch Coffee, a couple bottles of water, 2x Kroger Energy Shots Days Sober: 2      I don't know why the thumbnails for my blog on Facebook are showing the thumbnail for a weekly weigh in video I did a couple of weeks ago. I even posted a picture of myself in another post to try to get it to show that picture as the thumbnail. I'm going to have to do some research on how to select a lasting thumbnail.      The weigh in this morning was a bit disconcerting. I'm guessing that it was up because of how late I ate dinner. And how much pasta I ate and the amount of water I drank yesterday      Roommate woke me up this morning with a call. He was back in town for the week so I didn't have time for breakfast. He did have us go through Scooters for some cof...

Weight: 334.8 lbs ( 151.9 kg) BMI: 43.2 Waist: 56 in ( 142.2 cm) WtHr: 76.4% Breakfast: Slept in Lunch: Spaghetti Dinner: Chili Mac Days Sober: 1      Had a hard time getting going today. I have blankets covering my upstairs windows to keep the heat of the sun out during the day, I'm thinking that I'm going to take them down at night. It was hard to wake up with the room that dark. Didn't get up and going until almost 11am.      Since I slept in so late it felt silly to cook the bacon and eggs that I normally would have had so I just finished off the last of the spaghetti for lunch instead. Again not very Keto, but I still had that last half of the box of spaghetti     Recorded another recipe video today. But didn't get around to editing yesterday's or today's videos. However I did get a pot of chili made and did get around to taking inventory of the freezer and got a meal plan together. A bit frustrating that the only thing that I se...

Birthday Daily Blog May 9, 2023

Weight: 336.8 lbs ( 152.8 kg) BMI: 43.2 Waist: 56.5 in ( 143.5 cm) WtHr: 76.4% Breakfast: Sausage and Eggs Lunch: China Star Buffet Dinner: Spinach Artichoke Chicken Casserole      Today was my birthday, and I woke up with the thought hey that's 37 years wasted, will I get another 37? I admit that isn't a very productive thought, but I just couldn't shake it. I know that the “mid-life crisis” isn't supposed to be the exact middle of your life. But I'm not very confident that I'll make it to 74. I'm not expecting or planing anything, but I have not been taking very good care of myself. I wasn't going to say, “Lately” at the end of that sentence, but I don't know if I ever took very good care of myself. Mom introduced me to a book labeled "Fear the Fear, and do it anyway" I don't feel that I've been struggling with the "fear" of doing anything. But perhaps the reason I haven't been as successful on YouTube as I've...

wrote out the post, but forgot to post it last night, so I'll go ahead and post it now Weight: 336.2 lbs ( 152.5 kg) BMI: 43.2 Waist: 55.5 in ( 141 cm) WtHr: 75% Breakfast: Bacon and eggs Lunch: St Louis Pork Ribs Dinner: St Louis Pork Ribs Drinks: a can of caffeine free diet coke, pot of coffee, 4500ml water      Had a late breakfast as I woke up with a feeling that I needed to get up and start running around. I just felt that I needed to get out and do something, but I really didn't have anything to do. I did forget that I was going to buy some baking soda to try to clean off my Pyrex pans, but by the time I realized that I forgot the one thing that I was going to do today I had spent way too much on other things. Thankfully I already have some baking soda in my cabinet. It'd suck to spend money on stuff that I already had.      The thing is when I got home I thought I'd try to finish off the diet sodas that had made me feel so down over the...

Mouth Hungry Daily Blog March 16, 2023

Weight: 336.4 lbs ( 153.1 kg) BMI: 43.2 Waist: 55 in ( 139.7 cm) WtHr: 74.3% Breakfast: Not hungry Lunch: Ribs Dinner: BBQ Slow Cooked Chuck Roast Drinks: Pot of Coffee, 12 pk Bud Light    When I woke up this morning I was going to cook up some bacon and eggs like I normally do, but I really wasn't hungry. I convinced myself that I was just cooking breakfast out of habit. And when I started writing this out I started getting hungry, but I'm pretty sure that's just because I'm thinking about food. I call this effect “Mouth Hungry” a quick google search shows that “Mouth Hungry” is a term used by other people and has different meanings for what I've used it for. But it is important to remember that physical hunger is different from emotional and/or mental for taste of hunger.      Strange weather today. When I woke up it was almost 60 (15 c) but some heavy clouds moved in. The forecast for this afternoon was 36 (2 C) The way the sky darkened and wind picked u...
