Weight: 303.7 lbs ( 137.7 kg) BMI: 39.0 Waist: 52.5 in ( 133.4 cm) WtHr: 70.9% Breakfast: X Lunch: Smithfield Pork Loin Dinner: KC Strip Steak Drinks: Salted Coffee, Monster, Sparkling Water, Sober Year 1 (Day 577) Keto Month 4 (Day 138) (188/365 Days 2026 Keto) That's a good drop in the weight today. Almost back to making progress for the year. I really didn't do anything before work this morning. I got the feeling that I was supposed to be doing something. But I couldn't figure out what it was. I did think about having breakfast. It is kind of funny as I was thinking that there was a quite a long time when I was doing TMAD, but back then I wasn't doing Keto as I was having Fried Chicken for lunch and Hamburger Helper (not sponsored) for dinner and then skipping breakfast. When I learned about Keto and was trying that diet I started having Bacon and Eggs for breakfast each day and then had a recipe for lunch, and then for dinner. That eventually evolved into havi...

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: 346.7 lbs ( 157.3 kg) BMI: 44.5 Waist: 58.5 in (148.6 cm) WtHr: 79% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Creepy Cauldron Dinner: Pork Loin Chops, Mac and cheese Snack: Black Eyed Peas Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Rockstar Focus, Diet Arizona Lemonade Tea Sober Week 2 (Day 16) YMCA: X Technically today so I'll include it in snacks, but Roommate convinced me to have a can of Black Eyed Peas at midnight. I was a bit hesitant. Supposedly eating Black Eyed Peas at midnight is good luck for the new year. I've only tried it a couple of times. Including 2018, and 2020. Let's just say that those weren't very lucky years. But the beans turned out pretty good. I had microwaved them for a couple of minutes with a couple tablespoons of butter, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper. A lot of people had asked me where the Black eyed peas were. I had to tell more than one person, more than once, that they were sold out. Had a bit of a hard time falling asleep...
