This is not a failure, it's more of figuring out the stall in the weight loss. I never uninstalled the calorie counting app on my phone from years ago. The calorie counter not only tracks the calories of the food it also gives you a breakdown of the nutritional facts of the food as well. And I was surprised to see the amount of carbs I was eating over the last few days. It isn't why I haven't been posting lately, that's been a different issue. But the other day when I put the tube of cashews into the tracking app it looked like that single serving of Cashews was almost half of the allotted for a single day. And the Johnsonville Jalapeno Cheddar Smoked Sausage...

Headache, sore stiffness, irritability, etc. Nine months sober, so not sure what that was about. Kind a low mood all day today. I would say that the low mood could be because the weather was really dreary, but it did clear up for a while this afternoon. I was going to have Steak and Eggs for breakfast this morning, but Roommate had an appointment this morning and while he's at his appointments I do my weekly shopping. Just as soon as I got home from doing the grocery shopping he called and said that he was done with his appointment. And he said that there was something that sounded like really good progress. I don't want to go into details ...

Weight: 335.8 lbs ( 152.3 kg) BMI: 43.1 Waist: 55 in ( 139.7 cm) WtHr: 74.3% Breakfast: Village Inn Chicken Fried Steak, eggs, Biscuits and Gravy, hash-browns Lunch: Johnsonville Jalapeno Cheddar Sausages, Sparkling Water Dinner: Hamburger patties, Chips Drinks: 2L Pepsi Wild Cherry Zero      Today was the last day the roommate was in town and I had to pick him up from him dropping off the truck he was renting. He suggested that we go to Village Inn for breakfast. And all of the way from the rental place to the restaurant I was thinking I just need to order off of the Al Le Carte section of the menu. But when we got there I chickened out from ordering anything fancy. And it's been quite some time since I've had a chicken fried steak. The waitress asked me if I wanted pancakes or biscuits and gravy. And it's been a REALLY long time since I've had “Shit on a shingle” And those were really good buttermilk biscuits (still crappy hash-browns) so breakfast was not Keto, ...

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 f...
