It kind of felt like a hangover. I'm guessing it's a bit of Keto Flu. I didn't break Keto for very long. But I don't know if it matters for when restarting Keto. Also I didn't drink much yesterday so it might have just been dehydration. I have a pitcher of tea in the fridge, but the missing check yesterday kind of had me distracted from drinking any of it. I was pleasantly surprised that, yes they did turn off the water this morning to work on the neighborhood fire hydrant, but it was turned back on before I had to leave for work at 11am The first half of the day went by rather smoothly. The average wait time was ...

Weight: 330.0 lbs ( 149.7 kg) BMI: 42.4 Waist: 54.5 in (138.4 cm) WtHr: 73.6% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs Lunch: Baked Chicken Dinner: Baked Boneless Rib eye Drinks: Salted Coffee with Cream, Kroger Seltzer, Sugar Free Monster, Sober Month 7 (Day 240) Keto Day 3 I decided to go with Millionaire Chicken Casserole (You are what you eat lol) It only makes 4 servings so I'm going to make 2 batches of it. And looking over the ingredients for the casserole it looks like it's a carnivore recipe. Unfortunately the two batches only made 4 satisfying servings. Fortunately I'm on Paid Time Off next week and I have enough chicken in the freezer to have Baked Chicken for lunch all of next week or at least for a good chunk of it. Dishing it up it really smelt like some ranch dressing would go really good in it. But looking at the ingredients of store bought Ranch Dressing it really is just flavored Vegetable Oil and a lot of keto/carnivore influencers are seriously against "Seed o...

Messing around with Chat GPT suggested a spreadsheet to track weekly averages. The spreadsheet that it generated was a bit crap so I was trying to arrange the spreadsheet properly. I had spent four or five hours messing with this new spreadsheet and then...”Bad Allocation” and Open Office just crashed. So there goes all three spreadsheets for the day and the daily blog post that I had been working on the day. So let me see how much of this post I can reconstruct this post from memory in 45 minutes. And now I kind of want to start over on it to get a weekly average and projection of the weigh in. It is strange every night when I...

Last night just after I posted one got caught on the fly strip that I have hanging from the flower hook I have on my living room ceiling. Damned thing was buzzing like a live wire. Roommate was screaming at the toilet again this morning. As I was awoken early and I'm working later than normal (12-9 instead of the usual 11-8) I decided to go ahead and thaw out the freezer as the ham steaks and vacuum sealed ground beef that I had in the fridge seemed to have started bloating their packaging. This is a sign of out gassing which is a sign of rot. The fridge has been warmer than it should have been over the last couple of days but t...

We had the same plunger for the 15 years (?) that we've lived here, but now we're on our third one this year. I don't know what he's doing in there. I personally have had no problems ever flushing, but it seems like every other time he's in there he's going at it again. With the combination of interrupted sleep due to Roommate screeching and the fact that I had to work 10am to 7pm today I didn't wake up early enough time to have coffee. I did have time to scarf down bacon and eggs and a can of Sugar Free Mons...

I'm going to guess because I really haven't pooped much over the last couple of days. I did have a motivating movement right before work. But that was after I ate breakfast so I didn't bother reweighing. What was kind of strange was the bathroom kind of smelt like natural gas after I was done in there. I felt really hyper energized when I got to work. I noticed it and had to tell myself to be careful. There have been quite a few times when I'm hyper energized and that mood flips to angry frustration. I was glad that I was supervisor for most of...

As of 11:45 no sign of the check being returned or any overdraft/return check fee. Still holding my breath on that. The lady from the bank yesterday might be right about them skipping the fee because the paycheck came through before Midnight last night/this morning. But the paycheck still shows as “Pending” but the Rent check doesn't show as pending anymore. So I'm still budgeting for the $29 fee. I haven't told Roommate or Landlord yet because if it goes through it isn't going to bother anybody.  I stood on the scale before breakfast, but was too distracted by financials to measure the wais...
