Weight: 338 lbs ( 153.3 kg) BMI: 43.4 Waist: 57 in (144.8 cm) WtHr: 77% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Keto Clam Chowder Dinner: Pork Steak Drinks: Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Red Bull, Sugar Free Monster Keto Week 2 (Day 21) Sober Month 3 (Day 115) YMCA: No Last night I had another really weird dream. I was dreaming that I was too busy watching videos on YouTube to get ready for work. I had started taking a shower, but concluded that I didn't have time to do that so I ran out the door. And I had hurried out the door to drive to work, but I was more than halfway there before I realized that I had left the house naked. I started to turn around, but figured that would just make me more late for work. So I ran into the store, buck ass naked ran up to the self checkout register grabbed all of the money out of it so I could do the audit to run the register, but decided to run home first to get dressed. The dream jumped to “the next day” and when I got to work I brought the money...

Weight: 332.4 lbs ( 150.7 kg) BMI: 42.7 Waist: 57 in (144.8 cm) WtHr: 77% Breakfast: Pork Steak and Eggs Lunch: AI Chicken Lemon Parmesan Dinner: Bratwurst Drinks: Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Red Bull, Powerade Zero Orange, Powerade Zero Strawberry Keto Week 2 (Day 18) Sober Month 3 (Day 112) YMCA: No I stayed up WAY too late last night building those shelves. It was strangely extremely satisfying to finish building them. It was a little bookshelf that would probably fit into a dorm room. But it was sitting down in the basement for who knows how long waiting for me to sober up and put it together. Whoever wrote that instruction card deserves a beating though. The scale was a bit glitchy again today, but the most consistent number was the one I wrote down. A little annoying that it was the exact same as yesterday's. I stepped on it several times during the day and it gave me a different answer so it isn't just glitching to that number. It's still stunning that it's ...

Weight: 335.8 lbs ( 152.3 kg) BMI: 43.1 Waist: 55.5 in (141.0 cm) WtHr: 75% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Baked Chicken Dinner: Pork Steak Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Red Bull, Keto Week 2 (Day 16) Sober Month 3 (Day 110) YMCA: No Actually lost weight from yesterday. I'm just back down to the start of the month. But it's considerably down for the year. Waistline is considerably down, so that's encouraging. It's a bit disconcerting that I got an email this morning that the Jonsonville Jalapeno Sausages are now on recall because there's pieces of plastic in them. I did not little hard bits in the sausages that I had yesterday for lunch. I had assumed that they were bits of bone. But I guess not. I would be eligible for a refund, but I had already eaten them and had thrown away the packaging. No free lunches I guess. Finally, finally, finally got around to editing and scheduling the upload of the video that I recorded back on March 20. ...

Weight: 339.8 lbs ( 154.1 kg) BMI: 43.6 Waist: 57 in (144.8 cm) WtHr: 77% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Italian Sausage Spinach Soup Dinner: Pork Steak Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Red Bull, Kroger Energy Shot Keto Week 1 (Day 12) Sober Month 3 (Day 106) YMCA: No The weight was up a bit today. Yeah, I was annoyed a bit because as it's so early in the month it throws off the stats for the month. But I'm thinking that as I had mixed nuts for lunch yesterday I'm retaining a lot of water because of all of the salt in those nuts. And also I tend to weigh more the day after I have those jalapeno cheddar sausages. I don't expect the higher weight will last very long. I didn't print anything today as I've already printed all of the parts that I have already scaled to my size. It'll be a bit before I've re-scaled more pieces. As I am quite out of practice scaling parts. And I can't seem to find time or energy to work on them. ...

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...

Weight: 335.4lbs ( 152.9 kg) BMI: 43.1 Waist: 57 in (144.8 cm) WtHr: 77% Breakfast: Pork Steak and Eggs Lunch: Kroger Jalapeno Cheddar Bratwursts Dinner: BBQ Chuck Roast Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Red Bull, Keto Week 1 (Day 9) Sober Month 3 (Day 103) YMCA: No Legs were stiff and sore this morning. That's the excuse I used to not go to the YMCA. Still had great progress on the weigh in. But if I'm wanting to make more progress I'm going to have to get going over there. And again I'm thinking that my gut is changing shape because I wore one of my 2X shirts and it almost fits right. I still have to adjust the front of it as I stand up. But at least my gut isn't hanging out of the front of the shirt. Or at least not as much as it has been. The pork steaks that I had for dinner last night came in a pack of three so I had one for breakfast this morning. And I did find another steak in the fridge. So that'll be tomorrow's breakfast. I di...

Weight: 337.2lbs ( 152.9 kg) BMI: 43.3 Waist: 57 in (144.8 cm) WtHr: 77% Breakfast: Steak and Eggs Lunch: Cheesy Chicken Chili Dinner: Pork Steak Drinks: Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Red Bull, Keto Week 1 (Day 8) Sober Month 3 (Day 102) YMCA: No Forgot to put salt in the coffee this morning. It did make it taste a bit strange. It was kind of satisfying when cooking the steak this morning as I was able to get the strip steak to stand up on it's side. Online I've seen people post pictures of their steak standing up and they say that it's good to do that to make the steak cook on all sides. Not that I think it's bad to only cook it on the two sides. But eh, if I can get it to cook all of the way around all of the better right? I'm pretty sure that was the last of the steaks. I do have bacon for tomorrow, I'm going to have to get more bacon on Tuesday when I get groceries. I set the printer to print the front bottom of the left shin. The bottom calf was a...

Still can't seem to spell sobriety properly. I don't think that I've gone 100 days without alcohol since I was 21. Not that I've been struggling with it for that long. I printed out the front half of the left forearm of the costume I'm working on. When it finished it was quite satisfying how well it matched up with the back half of the forearm that I printed several years ago. I had to cut the part up a little more because the new printer isn't big enough to print it off in one piece. But a bit of duct tape is holding it together right now. The back half was printed in black filament and the front half is in white filament so there a bit of “yin and yang” going...

Roommate woke me up this morning to have me take him to his appointment this morning. While he was there I went ahead and did the grocery shopping. And again I overspent, not quite as bad as last week. But I really am trying to keep it under $150. Frustratingly I didn't buy everything that I needed either. I went to the store without a plan the really expensive stuff was the bacon, eggs, and supplements. But I didn't get stuff to make the recipes that I was wanting to make. I'll have to go to the store tomorrow; and while I'm there I'll have to trade in the supplements that I bought. I was going to pick up some K...

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...

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...

I forgot to save before I went to bed last night. I had left the computer on because I was still watching some videos, but it was getting late. This morning after I dropped Roommate off at his doctor I was updating the spreadsheets, and then the computer froze. And for some reason just decided to reboot itself for no reason. So I kinda lost what I wrote, at least on the writing program that I use. I could copy and paste from the site back into the writing program, but I wrote a lot more on the blog post than what would fit into the single page that I write these out into. I didn't notice until later in the evening when I was sitting down and writing up the day and I noticed tha...

Weight: 343.6 lbs (155.9 kg) BMI: 44.1 Waist: 58 in (147.3 cm) WtHr: 78.4% Breakfast: Sausage Ham Egg and Cheese Scramble Lunch: Bar-S Hot Dogs Dinner: Pork Steak Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Diet Arizona Lemonade Tea, Celsius Fuji Apple Pear, Powerade Zero Orange Keto Day 3 Sober Month 2 (Day 64) I ended up using my nose on my phone to set up some videos to fall asleep to. It didn't take much of the shortening to cover my hands. I wonder if I bought too much. There was only one size of can, but it only took a couple of fingertips full to cover the entirety of my hands. It was a bit distracting to have my hands inside of socks. And I probably shouldn't have used the socks that I wore yesterday. There was a smell, but the crustiness was more distracting. The warmth on my hands was nice though. When I woke up this morning the hands had kind of stiff skin on the back of them, but they didn't hurt. I'll continue the experiment to see if it helps. But I'll p...

Kind of reminds me of the idea that the only way that a diet will work is if you treat it more than just a “diet” it should be a “lifestyle” It is interesting that over the last couple of days the “Body Composition Scan” on my watch has marked a notable increase in “Body Water” I'm not sure how much to trust this scan as it is just a watch scanning my wrist and the two fingers on the other hand. I think that it supposedly sends a pulse through my torso ...

Today is up 2.4lbs (1 kg) but I'm pretty sure that is mostly snot in my head. I'm also a bit frustrated that the waist is up also. But fluctuations happen. I didn't have coffee again today as just as I was finishing the bacon and eggs Roommate came downstairs and announced that his nurse was on the way. I helped him wrangle his dog into his room but then I had to go to work. And good gravy everybody else came into the store also. I am so glad that nobody complained to me about it being busy. There's a promotion for 4x Fuel Points on Friday, the Super Bowl is this weekend, and they're talking about snow next wee...

I thought I had woken up peeing the bed, but the wetness in the bed was only in the top half of the bed. I really had to pee several times during the night. And I had really low energy all morning. A google search says that this could be a range of issues ranging from certain STI's (probably not) High Stress (I haven't been that stressed lately) Changes in hormones (maybe from changing diet?) Certain Cancers (that's unnerving) Low Blood Sugar (I'm guessing on this one) I'm guessing hypoglycemia as I did wake up again today with a hangover like headache, muscle weakness, and tired all day. I was really zapped for energy all day. Even while drinking...

The good news is the hex screws that I thought were all stripped out were actually fine, it was just me being too drunk to work on them properly. (Another thing to add to the list of thousands of reasons I'm glad I stopped drinking.) I installed the extruder that I had been wanting to install for a while now. When I looked at Amazon to see how long ago that it's been sitting in my basement waiting for me to get around to install it. It was back in December 2021. That was THREE YEARS AGO. That was three years of, “I want to get back to this thing that I want to be doing.” I kind of feel like I just w...

I could NOT fall asleep. Sitting at my computer I couldn't even keep my head up. But going to bed I felt like I was hyper charged or something. I tried doing meditation and breathing exercises. But I was distracted by the feeling of my pulse pounding through my hands. Sleep tracker says that I fell asleep around 1:25 but I'm pretty sure it was closer to 2am. It does show that I got considerably more “Deep Sleep” than I normally do so maybe once I passed out I passed all of the way out. FINALLY progress at last. A week and a half into the year and finally under the starting weight of the year. I can't help but think that there might be a connection to how closely I...

And broke that streak on Independence Day at Day 19? I think. Day 19 was the last day I started a blog, I don't know if I had started that blog post in the morning and in the evening just decided to buy beer for the Forth of July. But I do have to say that I haven't been mentally or physically craving beer. Doritos hell yeah, but not really beer or alcohol. The real fight has been against habit. When I get off of work, or do the grocery shopping there's the beer sitting right there. Or the days off, like yesterday, I'll sit around thinking that I hadn't bought the beer yet. Spent a lot of time updating the spreadsheets for 2025. It is real...
