I'm getting the feeling that at the end of this week I'm going to be disappointed that I didn't do anything. This is the last week of vacation that I have for the year, and I'm pretty sure that I'm just going to be counting down the days until it's done. I started cleaning the kitchen and I thought that it'd be good to spend the week doing a deep clean of the apartment. But then I sat down at the computer and didn't do much else. Perhaps I'll get to the cleaning tomorrow. The area around my desk really needs to be cleaned up. I do have to say that cleaning is a cumulative action. Getting star...

Weight: 329.4 lbs ( 149.4 kg) BMI: 42.3 Waist: 54 in (137.2 cm) WtHr: 73% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs   Lunch: Bologna Sandwiches Pringles Salt and Vinegar Chips Dinner: Loaded Mac and Cheese Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, Sugar Free Red Bull Sober Month 9 (Day 290) I really need to start taking advantage of my mornings. I just keep sitting around counting down how much time I have until I have to go to work and not much else. Just as I was starting to cook breakfast the maintenance guy for the condo complex startled me as just as I turned on the stove I heard a banging on the door and a frantic ringing of the doorbell. I wasn't sure what was going on and I recognized the guy. He asked if the red car in the parking lot was mine. I was a bit nervous for the asking. He asked me if I had any other cars. I was getting scared why he was asking about my car. Be he just said that he was repainting the lines and numbers on the parking lot for the building. ...

Weight: 328.4 lbs ( 148.9 kg) BMI: 42.2 Waist: 53.5 in (135.9 cm) WtHr: 72.3% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs   Lunch: Bologna Sandwiches Pringles Cheddar Sour Cream Chips Dinner: Chuck Roast with mushroom gravy Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, Sugar Free Red Bull Sober Month 9 (Day 289) I was surprised to see the lower number on the scale this morning. I was thinking that the scale was glitching again. But it gave a consistent number over the several times I stepped on it. I didn't do much before work again today. I've just been having a hard time gauging the passage of time. I was sitting here at the computer playing with the spending spreadsheet and weigh in spreadsheets thinking, “oh, it's coming up on 10:30 I should probably get ready for work. OH CRAP IT'S 10:30 I NEED TO GET READY FOR WORK!” The rent check still hasn't gone through. But at least it's now in a time that I have the funds for it to go through. I only worked a hal...

Weight: 329.0 lbs ( 149.2 kg) BMI: 42.2 Waist: 54.5 in (138.4 cm) WtHr: 73.6% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs   Lunch: Bologna Sandwiches, Pringles Pizza Chips Dinner: Hormel Pork Loin Lemon Garlic Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, Sober Month 9 (Day 288) Woke up in a mood today. It's just that I'm waking up surviving, going back to bed, and then waking up the next day. Again, I'm not tired of surviving, it's just wearying that that's all I'm doing. I can't think of anything that I've made progress on this year. Well, I have lost 17.7 lbs (8 kg) over the year. But I just haven't done much this year. The problem with that thought it is kind of self replicating (not the right term, but I can't think of the right one) I get frustrated because I haven't done anything, and when I try to think of something to do I just think that I haven't done anything. I did try to come up with an idea of a video to work on, and a kid a...

Weight: 347 lbs ( 157.4 kg) BMI: 44.5 Waist: 59 in (149.9 cm) WtHr: 79.7% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs https://youtu.be/l5bQ0Y0FXWQ Lunch: Deli Fried Chicken, Pringles Cheddar Dinner: Shrimp Alfredo Drinks: Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, 20oz Dr Pepper, Kroger Energy Shot, Powerade Lemon Lime Keto Day 0 Sober Month 1 (Day 55) Grandma was nice enough to give me some money yesterday for taking down her Christmas lights so I ran by the bank to deposit it. And while I was there I transferred money from my savings accounts as I am expecting the rent check to come through this week. The lady at the bank told me that since my savings accounts are below $100 each all three of them are going to have the minimum amount fee. I know, every month they charge my savings accounts $3 each if the balance ever goes below $100 during the month. It kinda sucks, but what can I do, I haven't been able to save up like I've been wanting to. But apparently there's a different kind of savings ...

Weight: 347.2 lbs ( 157.5 kg) BMI: 44.6 Waist: 59 in (149.9 cm) WtHr: 79.7% Breakfast: Johnsonville Jalapeno Cheddar Smoked Sausages Lunch: Fried Chicken Drumsticks, Cheddar Pringles Dinner: Red Baron Hand tossed Meat Lovers Pizza Drinks: Sugar Free Monster, Sugar Free Red Bull, Busch NA Sober Week 2 (Day 18) YMCA: X Starting off the reminding myself to take some “Vitamin P” It's only three days into the new year. 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...
