Weight: 319.1 lbs ( 144.7 kg) BMI: 41.0 Waist: 54 in ( 137.2 cm) WtHr: 73% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Johnsonville Jalapeno Cheddar Smoked Sausages Dinner: Strip Steak Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Low Carb Monster, Sober Year 1 (Day 393) Keto Week 1 (Day 9) (12/365 Days 2026 Keto) Exciting that today was another down day on the scale. It makes it look like I'm actually making progress and yesterday wasn't just a glitch or one off. I'm not sure if that trend will continue, but it is exciting to “beat” the lowest weight of last year so early in this year. Started out the morning cleaning out the oven. I do have to say that worked out a lot easier than I was expecting to. It was kind of hard as the oven door doesn't come off like in a lot of ovens referenced online in the “how to” videos, or at least I couldn't figure out how to take it off and the positioning of the shelving unit in the corner across the oven made it hard to reach the back left...

Weight: 324.3 lbs ( 147.1 kg) BMI: 41.6 Waist: 53.5 in ( 135.9 cm) WtHr: 72.3% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Southwestern Detox Soup   Dinner: Grilled Pork Chops, American Blend Salad, Ranch Dressing Drinks: Kroger Seltzer, Low Carb Monster, Sober Year 1 (Day 389) Keto Day 5 (8/365 Days 2026 Keto) Brain is just scattered today. I worked 10am to 7 today. And even two hours after I got off my brain is still just bounding around like crazy. I just seem can't get a single sentence together. (Doesn't help that I forgot my note in my apron in my locker at work.) I was kind of slow waking up. Not really in a struggling way, just kind of slow plodding wake up. I did start rushing as I noticed it was coming up on 9:30 and I had to work at 10 and I was just starting to cook breakfast. So I was able to gulp down the bacon and eggs and a can of Low Carb Monster before work, but that was about all I was able to do before rushing off to work. Thankfully the snow from yesterday had...

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...

It was like I just ran a marathon, but only in my calves. As I got up and moving they loosened up. I noticed that I haven't had salted coffee over the last week or so. So maybe the lack of salt is making my muscles sore? Maybe the cause of the headache over the last day or two? I made sure to put salt in the coffee this morning and I took my supplements (Fish Oil, Magnesium, Potassium, K2+D3, Vitamin D3) The rent check finally came through today. I have to say I was dancing on sunshine when I...

July 24, 2019 Back and Forth on Plans

Weight: 339.2 lbs (153.86 kg) Waist: 55 in (139.7 cm) BMI: 43.6 Mood: Energetic Breakfast: Chuck Arm Steak. American Blend Salad, Bacon Ranch Dressing, Broccoli Lunch: BLT Salad with homemade ranch dressing Dinner: grilled Sirloin Steak, topped with shredded cheese and bacon ranch dressing American Blend Salad Bud light Notes: I did make a meal plan for the week, but now we'll see if I can stick to it. It was my day off, and lately on my day off for the week I go over to Mom's to do laundry. She invited me to have lunch with her and we had a BLT Salad that was AMAZING. I'm not going to list my calories for today because I'm not sure she tracks calories for her recipes (and it seemed rude to ask) but her BLT Salad was American Blend Salad, mixed with some chopped bacon, diced cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, green bell pepper, green onions, and perhaps other items. And this was topped with her homemade Ranch dressing. And I have to say, tha...
