Weight: 322.1 lbs ( 146.1 kg) BMI: 41.4 Waist: 53 in ( 134.6 cm) WtHr: 71.6% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs   Lunch: Mom's Chili Dinner: Bratwursts Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Low Carb Monster, Sober Year 1 (Day 420 he-he-he) Keto Week 1 (Day 14) (37/365 Days 2026 Keto) Woke up with a jolt this morning. All day long I had a feeling that I needed to get up and run to do that thing. I'm not sure what that thing is, but all day long I've been thinking that there was something that I was going to do or there as something that I was waiting to happen. Yesterday was really warm and calm so yesterday I had told my Grandma that I would come by today to take down her Christmas lights. However today the wind was blowing really hard all day today so she suggested that I come by some other day, and I am off on Friday so I should be able to come by then to finally take down her decorations I normally would have had the grocery list mostly planned out on Monday and do the ...

Weight: 322.9 lbs ( 146.5 kg) BMI: 41.5 Waist: 53 in ( 134.6 cm) WtHr: 71.6% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs   Lunch: Stuffed Bell Pepper soup   Dinner: Cheeseburger Patties Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Low Carb Monster, Sober Year 1 (Day 419) Keto Week 1 (Day 13) (36/365 Days 2026 Keto) The scale is teasing me. It just wants me to think that I was starting to make progress. I was scheduled to work 10:30am to 8pm today. I worked the longer day because I was scheduled to do some of the yearly re-certification training. But running the desk a lot the last week or two I had a lot of standing around time so I was able to finish the training lessons that I was supposed to have been doing today all of last week. Today was a real run around. I was scheduled to do the training for an hour and a half, but since I had already finished I just went ahead and did the carryout thing that was scheduled to do the rest of the day. But the lady who was working in a lot of differe...

Weight: 319.9 lbs ( 145.1 kg) BMI: 41.1 Waist: 53 in ( 134.6 cm) WtHr: 71.6% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs https://youtu.be/l5bQ0Y0FXWQ Lunch: Stuffed Bell Pepper soup https://youtu.be/JA2XLNoM9_g Dinner: Ham steak Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Low Carb Monster, Sober Year 1 (Day 418) Keto Week 1 (Day 12) (35/365 Days 2026 Keto) Good trend on the scale over the last couple of days. The waistline has been annoyingly stable, but it is under the average. Crazy busy all day today. Frustratingly I was stuck in the desk by myself for most of the first half of the day. So there wasn't much I could do to help as I was the only one in the desk and it wasn't like I could go open another register without leaving the desk unmanned. And for most of the day that none of the carryouts knew how to check. There was a lot of back and forth between running the desk and being supervisor in the first half as the kid who was supposed to run self checkout for the middle of the day had a...

Weight: 321.5 lbs ( 145.8 kg) BMI: 41.3 Waist: 53 in ( 134.6 cm) WtHr: 71.6% Breakfast: Pork Steak and Eggs Lunch: Stuffed Bell Pepper soup   Dinner: Keto Cheeseburger Helper  Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Low Carb Monster, Red Bull Sober Year 1 (Day 417) Keto Week 1 (Day 11) (34/365 Days 2026 Keto) I was able to wake up early enough to have the pork steak and eggs. I do say that Beef and Eggs>Pork and Eggs. But it is always nice to cook eggs in butter. Not sure why eggs and butter work so well, but I'm not complaining. Today was a really busy but smooth day. There was another “Store Walk” when the big wigs come through the store making sure that we're doing everything right. They were kind of obvious when they came through so I really made sure that I kept acknowledging the lady at the front of the store as in a previous store walk I was called out on because I wasn't standing in front of the registers where the supervisor is “supposed” to stand. It was ...

Weight: 323.1 lbs ( 146.6 kg) BMI: 41.5 Waist: 53 in ( 134.6 cm) WtHr: 71.6% Breakfast: Strip Steak and Eggs Lunch: Stuffed Bell Pepper soup   Snack: BBQ Pork Rinds  Dinner: Pork Steak Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Low Carb Monster, Sober Year 1 (Day 416) Keto Week 1 (Day 10) (33/365 Days 2026 Keto) I was able to wake up just in time to cook that strip steak and eggs. But was only able to get half of the pot of coffee before I had to run off to work. When I got to work there was a bit of confusion of what I was supposed to be doing as my schedule online said that I was in the service desk for just about the entire day so I wore my apron, but when I got to the front of the store and saw the paper showing the list of where everybody was supposed to be it was showing that I was supervisor the entire day so I went back to my locker to grab my supervisor vest however when I got back up to the front the list was showing that I was in the service desk all day. It turn...

Weight: 323.5 lbs ( 146.7 kg) BMI: 41.5 Waist: 53 in ( 134.6 cm) WtHr: 71.6% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs   Lunch: Stuffed Bell Pepper soup   Dinner: Grilled Strip Steak Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Low Carb Monster, Sugar Free Red Bull Sober Year 1 (Day 415) Keto Week 1 (Day 9) (32/365 Days 2026 Keto) I noticed that I had transposed the digits from yesterday's weigh in I had written 324.3 instead of the 323.4 that I had on my phone. I'm not sure if I should go back to yesterday's post to correct that or just let it go. It's a bit odd that the check that I wrote on Tuesday for Groceries hadn't came through today. Usually when I write a check on Tuesday it'll go through on Thursday when I get paid. I'm not too worried about it coming through, it's just another day or two when I'm going to be doing extra math to see how much I have left in the checking account. I worked 1pm to 9pm today. Usually when I close the desk I'd have came...

Weight: 324.3 lbs ( 147.1 kg) BMI: 41.6 Waist: 53 in ( 134.6 cm) WtHr: 71.6% Breakfast: Bacon and Eggs   Lunch: Stuffed Bell Pepper Soup   Dinner: Ham Steak Drinks: Salted Coffee, Kroger Seltzer, Low Carb Monster, Sober Year 1 (Day 414) Keto Week 1 (Day 8) (31/365 Days 2026 Keto) I didn't get the chance to make the post yesterday. I'm a fan of the Fallout Video Game Series. There is a streaming series on Amazon Prime (Not Sponsored) I haven't seen the series as I don't have the money for all of the dozens of streaming services that you need to have to keep up with the cultural zeitgeist. They did the season 2 finale last night and I heard from Reddit that the Fallout Website had a mysterious countdown that was coinciding with the season finale. The company who make Fallout also makes the game series called The Elder Scrolls and last year they released a remade a game in The Elder Scrolls Oblivion so people were thinking that the studio was about to release a remak...
