Weight: 334.2 lbs (151.6 kg) BMI: 42.8 Waist: 56 in (142.2 cm) WtHr: 75.7% Breakfast: Pork Steak and Eggs Lunch: Baked Chicken Dinner: Rib Eye Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster Keto Week 3 (Day 25) Sober Month 3 (Day 119) YMCA: No Had a hard time falling asleep last night. The inside of my nose was burning. It reminded me of when I was a kid and heard that smelling pepper makes you sneeze, so I snorted some black pepper to see if it would make me sneeze. (Pro-tip: Don't do that, it sucks) I was going to do Bacon and Eggs , but decided on one of the smaller pork steak and eggs. It was a bit of a challenge to cook the steak because it split into two parts, but had a connecting piece that just got tangled up. All day it felt like I took a baseball bat to the sinuses. I do believe that the medicine that I bought yesterday did help. But the nose was still running like crazy. There was a bit of an air show in my neighborhood this morning. The National Gua...

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...

Weight: 336.2 lbs ( 152.5 kg) BMI: 43.2 Waist: 56 in (142.2 cm) WtHr: 75.7% Breakfast: Steak and Eggs Lunch: Johnsonville Jalapeno Cheddar Sausages Dinner: Taco Salad Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Red Bull, Powerade Zero Orange Keto Week 1 (Day 14) Sober Month 3 (Day 108) YMCA: No Good drop in weight today. 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...

W eight: 335.4 lbs (152.1 kg) BMI: 43.1 Waist: 56 in (142.2 cm) WtHr: 75.7% Breakfast: Pork Steak Lunch: Johnsonville Jalapeno Cheddar Smoked Sausages Mixed Nuts Dinner: Keto Cheeseburger Helper Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Red Bull, Keto Week 1 (Day 11) Sober Month 3 (Day 105) YMCA: No When I got the pork butt cut into steaks yesterday there were a couple of them that I think were the very edge of the full thing of meat so they didn't come out as very big steaks. I was going to have them with some eggs this morning. But they were a bit bigger in the pan than I was expecting them to be. So when I cooked them both it really was like eating two whole pork steaks. I was able to eat them all, but I didn't think that I'd be willing to eat eggs with them. Roommate did say that his disability payment is going to be delayed because he didn't meet the deadline last week, however the payment should only be delayed by a week or so and he'll have his...

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...

I think it got all of the way up to 81 degrees (27 c) outside. Nice warm sunny spring day. (Even though spring starts next week.) Heh, you can tell if it was a boring day if I start talking about the weather. Really not much happened today. I'm going to keep the windows open for another couple of days as it looks like it's going to stay warm for a couple of days. It does look like it's going to get a bit chilly this weekend. Today was another day where I was really tired. I'm going to blame the weather. It was so nice and warm I just wanted to lay down and take a nap. Maybe it was becau...

Weight: 335.2 lbs ( 152.0 kg) BMI: 43 Waist: 56.5 in (143.5 cm) WtHr: 76.4% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Johnsonville Jalapeno Cheddar Sausages Dinner: Pork Steak Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Red Bull, Sugar Free Monster, Kroger Energy Shot Keto Week 2 (Day 19) Sober Month 2 (Day 80) Wow, that was a drop. I actually moved my scale around to make sure that there wasn't anything underneath it. The watch scan says that there was a pretty big drop in muscle, but there was also a big drop in water weight. Which makes since because of the last couple of days. But the scan says that fat is up a little On the way home from the hospital with Roommate I happened to drive by where the new YMCA is going to be and wow that is going to be huge. Roommate was surprised that I cared because he thought that I had quit going. And it wasn't that I had given up on the idea of going to the Y it's just that I was waiting for him to go back to work. He asked me why h...

Weight: 348.8 lbs ( 158.2 kg) BMI: 44.8 Waist: 59 in (149.9 cm) WtHr: 79.7% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs   Lunch: Johnsonville Jalapeno Cheddar Smoked Sausages Dinner: Fathead Lasagna Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, Keto Day 1 Sober Month 1 (Day 56) Today was surprisingly busy for an off day. I was a bit slow to the start. But once I had breakfast I thawed out the freezer. For as dry as my hands have been lately it's surprising how much ice had built up in my freezer. Probably because I keep opening up the freezer. I don't know why I keep opening up and looking into the freezer, I make a meal plan each week. I could have been a bit better on the plan for the last couple of days but there's no reason to open up the freezer and stare like I've been doing. I decided to get back to the diet today. I did think about waiting for a “good day” to reset. (Wait for Sunday, waiting for an even day on the Sober Day Count, etc.) But like back in Decemb...

Didn't have time to make coffee. I am curious as to if there are any other chemicals in Coffee that make you feel good. Sure there is caffeine, but it's not like Coffee is just caffeine and water. That might go onto the Research “To Do List” I was fine when I got to work, but when I got to work I grabbed a can of Sugar Free Monster and I had one at lunch. But later in the evening I was dragging hard . I had an energy shot and a Powerade, and then a Propel. But still by the end of the night I was just no other description, but down. I also wonder if the “Down” later in the second half of the day was due to lunch. The l...

However sitting at the computer my knees and elbows are snapping and popping like crazy. I stepped on the scale to do a weekly weigh in, but Roommate woke up before I could do the video. It is kind of exciting to be down to the level of making progress for the year again. Again, happiness is not a number on the scale, but progress really is the best motivation. Last night Roommate said that he was going to do laundry this morning before I had to go to work so I was goi...

Waistline is making progress, but it's hard to get as excited about the waist as it is the weight. I keep reminding myself that, “Happiness is not a number on the scale, or the measuring tape” Happiness would be standing up without having to build up the courage to brace for the oncoming pain in the feet. Walking around without cringing in pain. Or the mind improving. Kind of ironic that I'm writing this after work and can't think of a way to expand on that point. But I am feeling that my mind/mood has greatly improved over the last couple of weeks. I worked earlier tha...

I try to pay all of my bills on the 4th Thursday of the month. But they don't release their statement until the 24th, today is the 23rd. So I'll have to wait until tomorrow to finish paying my bills.  Grrr.  Who I'm really annoyed with is Verizon. Every month since I got this phone back in September the bill had been $140.92 each month. But today the bill was $141.18. When I click on the “examine bill changes” it just says “increased $0.26” No reason, it's just more this month, than it was last month. And the estimated bill for next couple of months is going to be $152.29. No reason, no ex...

That was probably because of the kid next door. I swear that kid sounds like he's wearing combat boots and running laps around the adjoining wall between our apartments. I get that kids have a lot of energy and it's cold as ass outside so they're not going to be playing outside. But it's a constant, “thump, thump, thump, thump” from one end of the room and then, “thump, thump, thump, thump” to the other side of the room. And then up and down the stairs. Just all day, every day. They've been driving Roommate crazy because t...

I don't think that I'll be playing anything on my phone when I fall asleep anymore. I mean I sleep alright, but I don't want my phone lecturing me that I stayed up too late “watching YouTube” Got another pretty good down today. I'm still up for the year. But only 0.7 lbs (317 g) Who knows, perhaps I'll actually be making progress tomorrow. Got a bit of a hair brained idea this morning. I've been hearing a lot about Scurvy. Dr Berry and a lot of other influences I follow say that isn't a thing on carnivore because Beef actually has a enough Vitamin C, but I've been eating a l...

I mean being up 0.1 to 0.4 pounds (45 to 181 grams) per day isn't an emergency, it's just that only having ups this early in the year makes the spreadsheets look kind of ridiculous. According to the current trend I'm going to be be 516.6 lbs (234.3 kg) by the end of 2026. I'm not sure if I'd like to be a quarter of a US Ton, but I'm pretty sure that my knees would sure as hell wouldn't. They're grumpy enough as it is. Yesterday it seemed like the entire state of Kansas was trying to squeeze through the two registers that they were nice enough to give us. This morning a guy...

And the half a pound that I gained over the last few days are well within the normal expected fluctuations. And although I haven't been 100% on my diet, I've been doing pretty okay. Or at least I was doing okay this morning. Roommate had a doctor's appointment this morning so I didn't have time to cook the Bacon and Eggs that I usually have. So I didn't have the normal breakfast, but Dr Berry says that even if you just grab some hot dogs, that's still doing good on the diet. But I figure the Johnsonville Jalapeno Sausages taste better than the...

And again I woke up tired. I had sat a pan on the oven and turned it on and sat at my computer and only started cooking breakfast when I was reminded when I started to smell the pan warming up. Today was a really quiet day at work. Most people seem to be pretty chill. I did get into a couple of arguments with people. The Christmas items are naturally discounted 70% off. And a lot of people don't seem to understand that the discount is only on Christmas stuff, and can't comprehend that they can't get 70% off of Valentines Day and Spring merchandise before New Years. Apparently it's false a...

Roommate was discharged from the hospital in the next state over, but he didn't have any family members that could go over and pick him up. I have to say that the Flint Hills really are quite stunning. They must be quite beautiful in the spring and summer when everything is green. Instead of the brown, brown, with a bit of brown mixed in that we have here in late autumn/early winter. I think I startled my mother when I posted on Facebook the picture of my dinner saying that this was the first time I had ever visited a Waffle House. It was an impromptu 14 hour road trip that I didn't tell anybody about. I rarely ever leave my house on a normal day, and then “Surpri...

It took a lot of effort to hold off from going to Spangles. That idea came up a couple of days ago and it still sounds like a good idea. But fast food is expensive and not that great any more. I did end up driving around a bit before work. I really wasn't going anywhere I was just trying to stop myself from hitting up a fast food drive through. Annoyingly enough this cruising around made the “Low Gas” alert come on. I usually wait until I'm coasting in on fumes to refill the tank. Normally I just fill up once a month, but the Doctor's trip to Wichita last week and a Family Gathering a...
