Soft Rebound

Thursday, June 26, 2025

Getting there.  Scale bounded back up a bit, a fine reminder that I can't eat 2k calories in the evening with no exercise and expect good things to happen.  Not a huge deal, pretty clear that some of it is water (too many chips too much salt) and other stuff that needs to go.  Also didn't sleep as well.  Which is too bad.  The bottom line is that a little breakfast and a reasonable lunch are working pretty well but I still need to fix dinner and after.  And exercise.

Anyway, another day looms with lots to do and little interest in doing any of it. 

Noted this morning that my posts with excessively negative titles get the most views.  Amusing.  This won't be one of them.

Breakfast:  Cabot sharp cheddar, coffee

Again.

Lunch:  2 CF eggs scrambled, 4 NR bacon sausage links

 

And again.  Tasty and satisfying. 

Dinner:  Burger w MRgOgMJT, fries

 

Local five guys style place.  Annoyed that I again forgot to ask for cheese.  Talked myself into fries, this is a small, lol.  Tasty, but just like yesterday the satiety signal is totally messed up.  I'm not hungry but boy do I ever want to eat more.

Will probably settle for 12 oz All Day IPA. 

Exercise:  Nope.

Settling Down

Wednesday, June 25, 2025

Some days I'm optimistic, some I'm pessimistic.  Probably more optimistic today than I was yesterday. 

And probably with decent reason.  The scale was down this morning despite a non-perfect day -- I needed extra food due to a pre-golf energy crash, and I had probably six ounces of leftover coke when I got home.  I did manage to avoid a major blowup afterward, talking myself out of several worse options.  Barely.  And then I slept decently despite getting to bed much later than I would like.  It is definitely helping having a dehumidifier running.  Felt okay when I got up.  And I'm not feeling as beat up physically.  All good things.

Anyway, more of the same coming up for today.

Breakfast:  Cabot seriously sharp cheddar cheese, coffee

I'd guess about 2 oz.  I bought cracker cuts since they don't carry conventional slices and they weren't notably more expensive than the block. 

Lunch:  2 CF eggs scrambled, 4 NR bacon sausage links

Again.  Tempted to have added more eggs, but I saved the last two for tomorrow. 

Dinner:  BK Texas double Whopper, 12 oz Miller Lite

 

An experiment.   Was tasty but yeesh I expect more satiety for my 1k calories.

 Also:  Maiz chips (too many) and salsa.  No more keeping chips around 'k? 

Exercise:  Nope.

Possibly Broken For Good

Tuesday, June 24, 2025

Every time I reboot I wonder if this time I've screwed up my metabolism for good.  At some point you have to think my body is just going to say eff it, you abuse me, I'm on strike and not going to metabolize things correctly any more.

Was definitely wondering about that this morning.  Usually a couple of clean meals is enough to trigger a major flush, at least when I've been bingeing.  Not this time.  The scale was definitely down as if water was lost but it wasn't a parade of trips to flush it.  We'll see how it goes from here, maybe it just takes longer to really kick in.

Anyway, again felt fairly decent this morning.  It's warm in here but a dehumidifier knocked down the humidity ten points and made it quite comfortable.  I can deal with this.

Breakfast:  2 slices pepper jack cheese, coffee

Again.  Last of the pepper jack.

Lunch:  3 CF eggs scrambled, 4 NR bacon sausage links

 

We'll see if this is sufficient.  Tasty.

It wasn't.  Pre golf McD 2x double cheeseburger.  Was having an energy crash. 

Dinner:    French dip, 12 oz Miller Lite

 

Had a bit of leftover Coke when I got home. If I had more (and more ice) I would have had more.

Exercise:  9 holes with cart.  Hot.

Incrementally More And Less

Monday, June 23, 2025

I was thrilled to actually get something near seven hours of consecutive sleep last night.  I felt notably better when I got up to release some water.  I pounded down a glass of electrolytes before bed and I think that was quite helpful.  It was amusing to feel better after eating some Taco Bell a bit before I went to bed, too. 

Not surprised to see the scale lower, I definitely lost water weight by all available methods.  It's supposed to be hot again today and then it'll moderate slightly.  I just hope that it doesn't get too hot at home given the lack of functioning A/C.

Breakfast:  2 slices of pepper jack cheese, coffee

I was late so I went with the fastest option available.

Lunch:  2 eggs scrambled with CF chorizo

 

Had a thawed package of chorizo, it was easy to cook that up and toss in a couple eggs. 

Dinner:  2x mexican 2x american tacos, 12 oz Miller Lite

 

Not their finest effort, though they were certainly fat. 

Exercise:  Nope.  A little more active than the usual Monday but no dedicated time.  It may be a bit given that my knee and legs are already very unhappy with the golf schedule.

To The End

Sunday, June 22, 2025

I so very desperately need to get it together.  So fat, and it's killing me.

Weird night.  Went to bed early, doomscrolled the news but went to sleep around 10:30.  Woke up at 3:30 and that was it for deep sleep.  Lazed about for many hours afterward, both in bed and in the recliner, and for once I managed to mostly not think about work or other stressful things.  It was pleasant.  But of course with a relatively early tee time this afternoon it put me behind schedule.

Breakfast:  A couple slices of pepper jack cheese, coffee

Part of not being up is not needing to eat.  Another part is trying to keep the temperature down in here since I am without A/C.

Lunch: McD 2x double cheeseburger, coke

I may need to think about WHEN I eat in addition to what.  

Dinner:  BLT, chips, 12 oz Miller Lite

Sunday dinners.  I did skip the ice cream. 

Fouthmeal:  TB luxe box, pepsi

Exercise:  18 holes with cart, enough walking to be very tired.  Hot.

Zero Dollar Days

Thursday, June 19, 2025

Happy Juneteenth.  It is not recognized as a day-off holiday around here (unless you work for the federal government) but so far it's been quiet which is nice.  I have grand plans.

One of those plans is to start cutting spending, especially on food.  I've been catching up on my receipts and I've been spending WAY too much, especially on eating out.  I don't mind spending a little money on real food, but I've been binging on fast food and junk and it needs to stop.

Ideally I would spend zero dollars more days than not.  There will be spending - I will continue to buy breakfasts on Saturdays, for example.  I'm okay with a trip to the grocery store if it's not to just pick up some junk food.  But the really wasteful (and fattening) stuff needs to stop.

Speaking of things that need to stop, well, how about everything.  Let's get on track. 

Breakfast:  Sourdough bread and butter, coffee

 

I think I like the french bread better.

Lunch:  Sandwich, NR roast beef and pepper jack on sourdough

Okay.

Dinner:  Pizza hut thin pep beef ham, breadsticks, Pepsi

Not zero dollars. 

Exercise:  Nope

Fun With View Counts

Thursday, June 12, 2025

The good news is that we're getting there.  The bad news is that we're not there yet.

Another disappointing night of sleep.  I went to bed about 9:30, got to sleep about 10:30, woke up the first time shortly after 11:30.  The second time I woke up sinuses were blocked and I moved to the recliner.  Which is not a recipe for good sleep, unfortunately.  It happens far too often.

And I'm sure that means I'll crash out this afternoon.

Breakfast:  McD 2x burrito, 2x hash browns.  Coffee

Fail.

Lunch:  Culver's mushroom swiss burger (plus mustard and grilled onions)

A repeat from last week, I think.  Very good except it took forever to get it.  LOL app orders. 

Dinner:  LC pep pizza, crazy bread and sauce, pepsi

 Uh.

Exercise:  Nope.

Failure Of The Recurring Type

Wednesday, June 11, 2025

Although I was less tired this morning, by the time I write this mid-afternoon I'm spent.  It's really disappointing to be this exhausted.  It was particularly bad last evening and made Tuesday evening golf a chore rather than a joy.   As usual I need to fix my diet.

And sleep.  And exercise.  And so it goes.  Just pick a day and start doing it, dummy.

Breakfast:  4 strips Smithfield thick cut bacon, orange juice, coffee

 

Just realized that I intended to buy a different brand of bacon.  Oops.  Oh well, it was on sale.  And I shouldn't eat grocery store bacon anyway, too much PUFA.

Early lunch:  CFA spicy plus pepper jack, fries, coke

Late lunch:  Perch taco, beans, mexican coke

Ugh.

Dinner:  Deluxe pizza, coke

I was unsure until I took the first bite that this was what I needed for dinner.  It was.  For once, no regrets.

Exercise:  Nope.

Wired Sleep

Tuesday, June 10, 2025

Wired sleep.  It's different than weird sleep, but it was definitely weird.

I very rarely have caffeine after noon.  I've had some lately while backsliding on the beetus juice, but not that much really.  Last night, I had a lot.  And it was all after dinner.  It made for an interesting night of sleep.  I went to bed late, slept for an hour or two and then woke up.  I felt much more awake than usual.  Disposed of water, went back to sleep.  Woke up an hour later to an alarm beeping, no it wasn't the smoke detector I thought it was, it was a truck backing up outside my window. Again, much more awake than usual.  I was still much more awake than usual when I started waking up after 6:00.

Still late for work though.  Sigh.

I got a number of tasks done at least, though they were all things that should have been done on Sunday morning.  I'm so far behind.  And while it was interesting I do not plan to repeat the wired sleep experiment.

Breakfast:  4 strips Smithfield thick cut bacon, orange juice, coffee

 

Grocery store bacon and lots of it.

Lunch:  Double cheeseburgers, fries

 Local place.

Dinner:  French dip, 12 oz Miller Lite, Slim Kim garlic popcorn, coke

 

 yuh

Exercise:  9 holes with cart.

Again Wrong Footed

Monday, June 9, 2025

Ugh.  I am not sure it would be possible to be less ready for it to be Monday.  Did not get much of anything accomplished over the weekend, did not get the office picked up, didn't get the house cleaned sufficiently, just nothing.  And I grabbed the wrong shirt.

Once I get past the morning obligation I'm going to do a quick reset and at least fix the shirt thing.

Breakfast:  McD burrito, sausage mcmuffin, hash browns.  Coffee

Did I mention that I was not ready for today? 

Lunch:  Wendys sons of baconator, fries w ketchup

Again, did I mention?

Dinner:  Jersey Mikes #56 sub, chili cheese fritos, coke, peanut clusters

Quite the cluster.  At least I'm getting a few things done tonight after a waste of a day.

Exercise:  Nope

Good Accidents

Sunday, June 8, 2025

Off to a very slow start this morning.  Which is not terribly surprising.

Also not very with it.  As an indication, when I mixed up a batch of lazy bagels, I realized that I had used baking soda instead of baking powder.  Oops.  So I added some baking powder, knowing that I've made plenty of things that called for both.  And crossed my fingers.

Anyway, way too much to do, let's go.

Breakfast:  Lazy bagels sorta, chive and onion cream cheese, coffee

 

As mentioned above.  I also forgot to buy everything bagel seasoning, so instead I added some parmesan and italian seasoning.  Turned out good, had more chew than the regular recipe.  More bagely if you will.

Lunch:  2x Wendys son of baconator, fries w ketchup

A bit much.  On the go.  Had a can of Coke during golf.

Dinner:  Sliders, a few avo oil chips, strawberries, a little tortellini, lemonade, cake and ice cream

 Birthday party

Fourth meal: TB $5 box w pepsi

Exercise:  18 holes w cart, ample walking.

111.4

Qwrap

Saturday, June 7, 2025

Time for a quick wrap.

TGIS.

Breakfast:  2 eggs over medium, hash browns, bacon, raisin toast w jam, coffee

As usual.

Lunch:  McD 2x double cheeseburgers, coke

Original plan was to wait for dinner, didn't make it.

Dinner:  Keto bowl, coke

A bit much.  May have snickers ice cream bars too.

Exercise:  18 holes with cart.  Pretty tired.

Notional Donut Day

Friday, June 6, 2025

Apparently today is National Donut Day.  I've seen mention of it before, but it's really being pushed around here this year.  Maybe it's just where I've been going, I dunno.  But whatever.  Someone brought in a big box so I'm sure I'll have one.

Not too steep a price for yesterday's failure at least.  As always the trick is to not turn it into a major slide.  It's so annoying that I am the way I am.  I was unusually hungry last night.  Borderline ravenous, a state which I virtually never reach.  So I ate.  And ate.  And when I finished eating I still had the urge to eat more, even though I had consumed plenty.  I never felt extremely overfull, but when I went to bed - late - I was still very full.  Which I do not want to be.

Anyway, glad it's Friday.  Let's get this work stuff done.

Breakfast:  5 CF sausage links, orange juice, coffee

 

As mentioned, will have a donut later.

Lunch:  Double cheeseburger w cheddar, M/P/GO/GM/Jala/Tom

 

 

Local place, Five Guys knockoff.  It was not cheap (over $10), but it was good.  Hot, fresh, HUGE and loaded.   Also had a grapeade Spindrift - I wouldn't ordinarily mention a 14 calorie beverage, but it was enjoyable.

Dinner:  Italian sub, chips, glass of chocolate milk

Not inspired.  Did get fresh milk from the farm at lunch so at least there was that.

Exercise:  Nope.  Really a missing piece of the equation here.

Maybe This Maybe That

Thursday, June 5, 2025

Getting things fixed sure involves a lot of speculation.  The human body is weird, man.  I'm sure that I could have great temporary success if I had an iron will, but the reality is that I don't.  Very fallible.  Too many stumbles.  Inconsistent motivation.  

Anyway, even though I went to bed at a reasonable hour last night I didn't get right to sleep.  Once I did it was the usual, I woke up a little before 6:00 for water removal but I was not rested, not ready to get going.  So, as usual, I didn't.

I am thinking that I may need to give evening exercise a more thorough try.  Maybe that's a key (nothing is ever the ONLY key) to getting good quality sleep.  I also need to do some serious dusting and vacuuming, as my sinuses were mildly cranky yesterday and it sure doesn't seem to take much to reduce sleep quality.

Breakfast:  5 CF sausage links, orange juice, coffee

 

Satisfactory.

Lunch:  3 eggs sunny in EVOO, hash browns in RCO, 1C spicy beans

 

Very tasty, filling ... and not so great for satiety.  QUITE hungry even before 5:00.  It's the sort of thing that makes me believe that I really need to go hardcore low carb.  Even though I honestly am not excited about that.

Dinner:  Dominos thin crust pep ham, parm bread bites, allulose vanilla ice cream

 

The planned light dinner was just not going to cut it.  I should have come up with a better plan than this, but at least it was cheap.  First allu ice cream in a while, the texture was perfect but the taste a bit off.

Exercise:  Nope.  Going to bed as early as I can stand.

Less In The Belly

Wednesday, June 4, 2025

It's always nice when the scale is kind and you also feel or see something noticeable.   There was notably less belly bloat this morning.  Not really sure why, but I will just take it.

Funny that the last two days feel successful when they have absolutely not been 100% clean.  Way too much cheese and too many chips yesterday, I was rather surprised that the scale was down as much as it was.  All water, of course, but hey the water needs to go too.

Anyway, limping onward.

Breakfast:  ~ 2 oz Cabot seriously sharp cheddar, orange juice, coffee

 

 

The problem with Tuesday golf is it prevents me from doing anything that takes time like cooking up a batch of sausage for breakfasts.  And by prevents I mean I'm a lazy POS who doesn't do anything.  I certainly could have gotten up and done it this morning too, but didn't.  Another project for tonight.

Lunch:  Culvers mushroom and swiss burger, add mustard and grilled onions

Glad to discover mayo was not part of the standard configuration.

I have seriously considered a diet plan where I just eat a burger for lunch every day.  No fries, no other sides, no drink, just a fat burger. 

Dinner:  Charcuterie plate - Applegate salami, cheddar, olives.  Jesse & Bens avo oil fries.  12 oz All Day IPA

 

 

Not sure I'll ever master the art of not eating too much in the evening.  I still want more.  Anyway, some new stuff to me, the salami and the fries (done in the air fryer).  Both very good.  Next time I hope to try the tallow fries, they were sold out - only available one place semi-locally and it's not nearby.

Exercise:  Nope.

Cravings Lose

Tuesday, June 3, 2025

That's a little better.  I managed eight hours of sleep last night.  I think, anyway.   I was somewhat more alert this morning, felt a bit better.  Being done with eating early (before 7:00) last night helped.  I did end up eating more than I had planned, but not to wild excess.  So all good there.

It was interesting how much I craved sugar after dinner.  If I had had anything on hand, I would have consumed it.  I looked into simple dessert recipes, fortunately even those were too much effort.  Managed to fight off the urge to do an allulose ice cream.  I knew I didn't need more food.  I just had cravings.  And for once they lost.

Dumped a bunch of water so the scale was kind too.  Not a bad start to the day. 

Breakfast:  4 NR bacon sausage links, orange juice, coffee

Greasy and tasty.

Lunch:  Wendy's double

I was not able to make myself meal prep last night, so a free burger (bought on points) it was. 

Before golf, about 3 oz Cabot seriously sharp cheddar cheese.  I need to have something better handy for Tuesdays to grab and go. 

Dinner:  French dip sandwich, pickle, 12 oz Miller Lite, dill Krunchers

Standard Tuesday night fare.  Cracked with the chips, otherwise an okay day.

Exercise:  9 holes with cart, reasonable walking

Night Shift

Monday, June 2, 2025

Time to break the pattern.  I can do okay at breakfast, it's rarely a big deal to eat little (or even nothing).  Is not problem.  Lunch, similarly, can be okay.  I overeat at lunch more often than I do at breakfast, but it's still not too terrible.  Dinner is the problem.  I eat way too much and the wrong stuff.  I need to fix that.  A much lighter meal is required, which is going to require a shift in mindset - I'm often quite hungry when I head home after work which results in poor decisions.

Okay then.

Not a great start to the day.  I had a lengthy weird dream, woke up a number of times and ended up in the recliner at 5:00 am.  As part of the great fixing I sure would like to get a consistent eight hours (or at least six or whatever I need to be functional at a minimum), in bed, with no recliner dozing.  I was awake enough this morning to make that happen but I sure felt like crap, probably in large part due to the major excess calorie consumption last evening.

Fix it.

Breakfast:  4x NR bacon sausage links in a bit of EVOO, coffee

I realized yesterday that I hadn't thawed anything to cook for this morning, so I picked up a package of links.  They're expensive but they're decent. 

Lunch:  2x McD double cheeseburgers

 

Stupid work.  I need better advance planning. 

Dinner:  4x mexican style tacos, 12 oz All Day IPA, chips

 

Urge to eat so strong.

Exercise:  Nope.

That Was A Month Of FAIL

Sunday, June 1, 2025

Welp.  May sucked.  No other way to put it.  Complete and comprehensive fail in all respects.

Slept in today, so I'm way behind.  Better get moving.

Breakfast:  Lazy bagels w plain cream cheese, coffee

 

Need to give 'em up.

Lunch:  2x McD Double cheesebugers

On the go.

Dinner:  Home cheeseburger, chips corn on the cob, 12 oz Miller Lite, ice cream

 Sunday dinners

Also:  Chips, coke

Exercise:  18 holes with cart, ample walking

116.4

Worst

Saturday, May 31, 2025

It wasn't a very good month and it did not finish strong.

Breakfast:  2 eggs over medium, hash browns, 3 strips bacon, raisin toast w jelly, coffee

 

Standard.

Lunch:  16 oz Miller Lite

After golf.

Dinner:  Chili cheese dogs, fries w ketchup, coke

Excessive

Also:  Krunchers and donuts

Ugh.

Exercise:  18 holes with cart, plenty of walking

116.2

End That

Friday, May 30, 2025

Not many words.  Just TGIF.

Breakfast:  3 strips CF bacon, coffee

Last of it.

Lunch:  Slices of pizza

Okay.

Dinner:  Italian beef, fries w ketchup, coke

Ugh

Also donuts/brownie, small bag of Krunchers

Fail

Exercise:  Nope

Not That Close

Thursday, May 29, 2025

I can do a few hours of being good, but an entire day?  Bah.  Not so much.  I guess I'm not as close to really getting things rolling as I thought.

Boo.

Breakfast:  3 strips CF bacon, coffee

 

Satisfactory satiety as usual.  Don't need a big breakfast.

Lunch:  Taco meat, mashed potatoes, chocolate milk

 

Again.

Dinner:  Wendys sons of baconator, fries, ketchup

Crack.

Also fourthmeal, TB 5 dollar box, pepsi, burrito.  Ugh.

Exercise:  Nope

Superslug

Wednesday, May 28, 2025

Poky this morning.  I wasn't ready to go to bed when I got home last night and then I fought my eyelids for quite a while in the recliner before finally getting up and laying down.  If it were not for the contacts I probably would have been out cold.  Feels like I slept acceptably, it just was not enough.  And as a result I am very late to work this morning.

Cleared out some waste of all types and as such the scale was good this morning.  We'll see if I can maintain the experiment for a bit and if so how it goes.

Breakfast:  3 strips CF garlic pepper bacon, coffee

 

In a rush.

Lunch:   Wendys sons of baconator, fries w ketchup, glass of chocolate milk

If the farm offered a quart option I'd get that, a half gallon is quite a bit of milk for one person for a week.  I probably won't finish it.

Dinner: LC Pep pizza, crazy bread w sauce, glass of chocolate milk

Ugh.

Exercise: Nope

Made That Joke Too

Tuesday, May 27, 2025

I am definitely not the first to say that this is the Monday-est Tuesday ever, but I'm going with it.  Ugh.  I have no pep.

On the plus side I did wake up early (5:15) and didn't feel the need to go back to sleep, so there is hope that my schedule shifting project might get off the ground this week.  I elected not to go for a morning walk - I'm still feeling the effects of the weekend golf and will go out again this evening.  I will say that I'm not as beat up today which is good.  I was pretty tired last night.  I need to get rolling on the weight loss via eating better before I get too carried away with additional exercise.

Breakfast:  4 strips CF black pepper garlic bacon, coffee

 

Going to be an excessive coffee kind of day.

Lunch:  ~5 oz home taco meat, 2C mashed potatoes, glass of chocolate milk (at 4:30)

 

Trying something.   Also, and unrelated, I have had to rotate fewer photos lately.  AI?

Dinner:  French dip sandwich, avo oil chips

 

Standard Tuesday night fare.   No beer this time.

Exercise:   9 holes with cart

117.4

Overholidayed

Monday, May 26, 2025

Back to reality tomorrow.  Nice to have the extra day.  

Definitely beat up after golf, need to lose some weight I think before I get carried away with exercise.  Knees and legs are just not happy.

Breakfast:  McD egg mc muffin, hash browns, coffee

Early start so no usual breakfast out.

Lunch:  Hot dog MR, chips, 12 oz Miller Lite

Since I didn't have a big breakfast.

Dinner:  Double cheeseburgers, fries w ketchup, coke, snickers ice cream bars

Local place.  Got my business by being open.

Exercise:  18 holes with cart.  Tired.

Beat Up Beat Down

Sunday, May 25, 2025

Not sure why those two phrases can mean more or less the same thing, but I feel both of them this morning.  Tired, cranky knees, not a lot of pep.  Let's see what coffee can do for me.

Another sluggish start.  Woke up at 5:45, which has happened a couple times this week.  Minor headache, just enough to make going back to sleep immediately impossible.  Even after I got up, got rid of some water and hit the recliner I couldn't quite get there.  Oh well.  Lots to do.

Breakfast:  Lazy bagels with plain cream cheese, coffee

I had the necessary ingredients.

Lunch:  Wendys sons of baconator, fries w ketchup.  A few chips and onion dip.

Unusually good today.   Also snickers ice cream bars.

Dinner:  Brats, chips, salad no dressing, 12 oz Miller Lite

 Sunday dinners.  Also TB luxe box w pepsi, double beef burrito

Exercise:  9 holes with cart, plus otherwise very active.
