Weight: 338.4 lbs ( 153.5 kg) BMI: 43.4 Waist: 56 in (142.2 cm) WtHr: 75.7% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Italian Sausage and Spinach Soup Dinner: Chuck Roast with Mushroom Onion Gravy American Blend Salad Caesar Dressing Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, Powerade Zero Orange, Kroger Energy Shot Keto Week 1 (Day 14) Sober Month 2 (Day 75) I haven't used the shortening and socks over the last couple of nights because as I was guessing as it warmed back up the dry skin on the back of my hands has gone away. I'm going to hold on to the shortening for now. I'm not sure how long it'll “stay good for” but if it shows signs of “growth” or anything I'll go ahead and pitch it. It think that it might be a good idea to use lotion whenever I wash my hands though. Great weigh in this morning. Both waist and weight are down. I was kind of excited to see that the printer delivery time was updated to an estimated time from 10:15 to 2:15. I was e...

Not feeling bad, or “down” just really, really tired. I'm blaming the weather. It was pretty dark and gloomy today. Heck if it were about 50 degrees (10 C) warmer it would be my favorite kind of weather. But this weather where even just going outside hurts just sucks. I was feeling Okay before lunch, but when I came home and sat down, I sat all of the way down. I really just wanted to go to bed. My sister came by the store to get my tax documents shes going to help me and file my Tax Returns for me. It's fun to think of all of the fun things that I could buy when the returns...er...return. But honestly I just need to build up my savings acco...

Weight: 344 lbs ( 156 kg) BMI: 44.2 Waist: 57.5 in (147.3 cm) WtHr: 77.7% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Italian Sausage Spinach Soup Bar-S Hot Dogs Dinner: Bratwursts Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, Kroger Energy Shot, Powerade Zero Orange, Core Hydration Cucumber Keto Day 7 Sober Month 1 (Day 46) That's a good start to the month. Again happiness is not a number on the scale, but I'd be lying if I said that I wouldn't have been in quite the mood that I was in yesterday morning if I had the numbers I had today. Not sure if it's the lighting in the Men's restroom at work but the last couple of days when I get to work I still have to pee a lot. And the pee looks quite dark in the urinal. Dark pee is a sign of dehydration. But, as usual, I had just finished off a pot of coffee. I think that I've heard that coffee dehydrates you. Can you drink a half a gallon of fluid and then be dehydrated? I really can't wait until spring c...

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...
