Weight: 303.7 lbs ( 137.7 kg) BMI: 39.0 Waist: 51 in ( 128.3 cm) WtHr: 68.9% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Bratwursts Dinner: Cheeseburger Patties Drinks: Salted Coffee, Monster, Sparkling Water,Seltzer, Sober Year 1 (Day 637) Keto Month 6 (Day 206) (249/365 Days 2026 Keto) Spent the last couple of days trying to play through Half Life 1. I have to say that there aren't a whole lot of polite words to describe the last couple of boss fights in that game. The level design isn't that great so I had to constantly pause the game to go watch a YouTube play through of the game to see where I was supposed to go next. There aren't any quest markers or objective lists or heck the majority of the time there aren't even any other characters that tell you what is going on. I'm all for environmental story telling. There are better ways to tell a player what's going on other than a narrator exposition dumping on you. But there is nothing telling you what you're do...

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...

Weight: 341.0 lbs ( 154.6 kg) BMI: 43.8 Waist: 56.5 in (143.5 cm) WtHr: 76.4% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Italian Wedding Soup Dinner: Bratwursts Drinks: Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, Powerade Zero Orange Keto Week 1 (Day 11) Sober Month 2 (Day 72) Had a bit of a hard time falling asleep last night. Apparently Verizon had an update that scans the phone to for malware. The problem is that it decided to make notifications that it had started the scan. And then sent another notification that the scan was done. And then a notification that it started the virus scan. And then a notification that the virus scan was complete. I was glad that these scans were happening. And I'm glad that the scans came out clean, but I'm not sure that I liked to have these notifications at 2 O'clock in the freaking morning. The weight was a little up today from yesterday. I'm not too worried about that because daily fluctuations happen. It's still among the lowest numbers ...

Weight: 345 lbs ( 156.5 kg) BMI: 44.3 Waist: 57 in (144.8 cm) WtHr: 77% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Italian Wedding Soup Dinner: Rib-eye Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Keto Week 1 (Day 11) Sober Month 1 (Day 50) Back on Sunday I was taking a cart that had a squeaky wheel around to the back of the store where damaged carts go. There are several carts that have screws sticking out of the side of the wheel that when they roll around they squeak as it goes by the wheel brace. I swear that they just glance at the cart, see that it has four wheels that go around and bring it back up to the front. Oh well, at least it will be a week or two without that “Squeak, squeak, squeak” that drives everybody in the store insane. But as I was coming back up to the front I wasn't paying attention to where I was walking and I caught the stores gas meter right against my left thigh. There's a pretty good sized bruise there now. A bruise that I'm constantly poking at. Of cours...
