Weight: 321.5 lbs ( 145.8 kg) BMI: 41.3 Waist: 53.5 in (135.9 cm) WtHr: 72.3% Snack: Black Eye Peas Breakfast: Members Mark Hot Dogs Lunch: Johnsonville Beddar with Cheddar double cheddar smoked sausages Snack: Bar-S Jumbo Jumbo Hot Dogs Dinner: Christmas at Grandmas Drinks: Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, Sober Year 1 (Day 380) Keto Day 0 Had a hard time falling asleep last night, but was still able to wake up and get to work on time. Really good drop on the scale this morning. I haven't started a year under 330 (149.7 kg) since 2015. I've been lower in weight a couple of times last year. But I haven't been this constantly low for quite some time. I went ahead and updated my current goal to 310 (140.6 kg) as it's so close to the 320lb (145.2 kg) goal that it seemed silly to set that goal for the new month.  Roommate had started a tradition of eating a can of black eyed peas right at midnight. And eating an entire can of beans right before made me wake up with...

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...
