Weight: 334.8 lbs ( 151.9 kg) BMI: 43 Waist: 55.5 in ( 141.0 cm) WtHr: 75.7% Breakfast: Bacon and eggs Lunch: Hot Dogs Dinner: Pork Steak, Mac and cheese Drinks: Couple cups of Coffee with cream, Kroger Energy Shot, Kroger Sparkling Water, Milwaukee's Best, Natural ICE Beer      Woke up this morning with rolling pain in the feet with each step, was expecting that with the dinner I had last night.      Got some dishes done before work, kind of a frustration that I feel like I'm always doing dishes. This is one of the benefits of the meal planning that I want to be doing. Sure there are a lot of dishes to do once or twice a week, but for most of the rest of the week all you need to do is rinse off the bowl or plate you ate lunch or dinner in/on.      Had hot dogs for lunch. I was out of mustard at home so I picked up a bottle of spicy brown mustard. But I put too much on the hot dogs and that stuff was really sour and bitter and kind of made lunch that particular flavo

Weight: 334.4 lbs ( 151.7 kg) BMI: 42.9 Waist: 55 in ( 139.7 cm) WtHr: 74.3% Breakfast: Bacon and eggs Lunch: Tacos De Alambre Dinner: Bar S Hot Dogs Drinks: Pot of coffee, 2x cans Natural ICE beer, 1 Can Milwaukee's Best beer, ~2700 ml water    I think Nachos are bad for you. Or at least eating an entire bag of tortilla chips is bad for you. I am not feeling physically bad, not that bad mentally either. But the scale is moving up. My feet didn't hurt this morning, but I just think that's because I was sitting down all day yesterday. Kind of had a hard time waking up this morning, but that was more like “a body at rest” than anything else. But then again when I'm doing good on Keto I can jump out of bed before alarms even go off. It is an interesting coincidence that my weight got down the exact same lowest weight for last month and then went back up again. It's pure coincidence of course, but still kind of a fun one.      They scheduled me to be off Monday a

  Weight: 342.4 lbs ( 155.3 kg) BMI: 44 Waist: 56 in ( 142.2 cm) WtHr: 76% Breakfast: Bacon and eggs Lunch: Instant Pot Chili Dinner: Baked Chicken Drinks: 2 cups coffee, sparking water, 4x Milwaukee's Best ICE beers      I didn't quite get the chili done before I had to head to work. But the great thing about the Instant Pot (not sponsored) is that once it gets to the end of the time of it's pressure cooking it will depressurize and just keep the food warm. And the great thing about chili (not sponsored) is that the longer that it sits in low warmth the better the flavor gets. (I think that's how that works anyway)      Ran home for lunch to have some chili. And in the instant pot it's only supposed to be under pressure for 35 minutes and when I got home it was kept warm for three and a half hours. It turned out quite spicy. Could have used a bit of cheese. But in my opinion just about everything could use a bit of cheese.      Baked some chicken for dinn

  Weight: 353.4 lbs (160.3 kg) BMI: 45.4 Waist: 57.5 in ( 146.1cm) WtHR: 77.7% Breakfast: Bacon Lunch: Goulash Dinner: Queso Soup? Drinks: a few cans of diet coke and diet Dr Pepper, 4 cans of Milwaukee's Best ICE Beer, sparkling water, Kroger energy shot, I feel that the phone interview went alright this morning. But I am REALLY not comfortable talking about myself in a promotional manner Interviewer: What's your strengths Me: Durrr Interviewer: What's some of your weaknesses Me: Duhhhh I feel that these are reasonable and regular questions. But when I'm trying to describe myself I just go immediately into. “Me is am no talking goods” I was so focused on the phone interview this morning that I almost forgot to do the blog post. The call only took about 20 minutes but I was just sitting here processing all of the “should have said” and “could have said” thoughts when I was starting to get hungry. I debated for a bit whether or not to finish off the bacon I had in

Weight: 357.6 lbs (162.2 kg) BMI: 45.9 Waist: 58in ( 147.3 cm) WtHR: 78.3% Breakfast: X Lunch: Doritos with queso and hot dogs Drinks: 2x Kroger energy shots, Sparkling water, 4x Milwaukee's Best Dinner: WAY TOO MUCH spaghetti      Wasn't hungry for breakfast. And again, I am going to try avoiding eating if I'm not hungry. “Food is fuel” you don't put more gas in the car if the tank isn't empty.      THESE FLIES ARE GOING TO DRIVE ME INSANE! I'm not sure if it's the weather changing, or if it's that I just let my house get that bad. But when I'm sitting at my computer they are constantly swarming around my head. Strange that there are more flies around my computer than there are in the kitchen where the dirty dishes are. But I can't wait for it to get cold enough to kill these bastards off. I read online that cinnamon is one of the things that repels flies so I sprinkled that around my desk, and when I got back from the restroom I saw a fly

Weight: 359.4 lbs (163 kg) BMI: 46.1 Waist: 57 in (144.8 cm) WtHR: 77% Breakfast: Village Inn Chicken Fried Steak Meal Lunch: Johnsonville Jalapeno Cheddar Sausages Dinner: X Drink: Sparkling water, 2x Kroger Energy Shots, 4x 24oz Milwaukee's Best ICE beer mood: Neutral      My roommate is an over the road truck driver and when he is in town and it's kind of a ritual when he gets into town the next morning he rents a car and we go to the Village Inn here in town. I know that Chicken Fried Steak really isn't in the diet plan that I want to be on, but it also sounded so very good. Got a laugh out of my roommate, because I say the same thing every time we go out to eat I get the chicken fried steak. And then every time I get the chicken fried steak I point out that I get it every time we go out. It is a bit unnerving to listen to him talk during the meal. He seems to be balls deep into the MAGA “woohoo the world is ending!” conspiracies. He seems to be very excited for the

Weight: 354 lbs ( 160.6 kg) BMI: 45.4 Waist: 58 in (147.3 cm) WtHr: 78.4% Breakfast: X Lunch: Leftover Nachos Dinner: X Snacks: Doritos, munched on for most of the afternoon Drinks: 5x Milwaukee's Best Ice 24oz beer mood: stable Again I wasn't very productive today. I did buy a few more ingredients for making the Keto recipes that I want to make. but then just sat around not doing anything. I did thaw out my freezer to keep the stuff in my refrigerator from rotting. But by the time I had the freezer thawed out it was too late in the evening to eat anything so I didn't eat anything for dinner.

Weight: 361.2 lbs (163.8 kg) BMI: 46.4 Waist: 58.5 in (149.6 cm) WtHr: 79.5% Breakfast: Bacon and eggs Lunch: Bar S hot dogs, bag of Cheetos Dinner: baked chicken Drinks: 2 Liters Dr Pepper Cherry zero Sugar, 2x Kroger Sparkling Water, 5 Hour energy shot, 4x 24 oz Milwaukee's Best ICE beer mood: tired      Started of with some bacon and eggs. I still haven't gotten the bacon right, it's always burnt halfway to charcoal or still half raw. Sometimes on the same strip. I'm kind of starting to see the greatness of over easy eggs. But they do seem to be a pain to eat compared to eggs cooked hard. It almost seems necessary to switch back between a fork and a spoon. And I was really clumsy and irritable this morning. The other day I had bumped into a door frame and I now have a heck of a bruise on the back of my left arm. And everything I touch seems to end up on the floor, or seems to knock something else onto the floor.      If I ever get the energy I seriously need to cl
