New Semi-Metrics

Tuesday, December 31, 2024

Last day of the year.  I can't say that it has been the greatest.  In a lot of ways it's been tremendously frustrating.  Most of the year has been spent in the same weight range (at the top end of it right now of course) and I keep getting off track. No success at all building sustainable exercise habits or fixing sleep issues.  I have gained insight into why things are the way they are, they're all inter-related, but improvement has been slipping out of my grasp.  That needs to change in 2025.  Sure, there are things about me that are going to stay the way they are.  I'm not suddenly going to become social or anything.  But I need to improve the health stuff and I'm the only one who can do it.

One thing I do plan to do is to do some daily tracking of sleep.  I've mentioned sleep a lot the last couple of months, because I've really seen how much bad sleep sabotages my efforts in other areas.  I do not pretend to fully understand how to ensure that I get good sleep, but hopefully by tracking it I can pick up a little insight over time and try to optimize within the realm of possibility.  I'm tempted to get a device or a ring or something to measure but I haven't looked into them at all.  Maybe I'll do that tonight.  (ETA:  Didn't wait, started researching.  Probably won't spend the money but I ordered a ring sizing kit.  Also downloaded an app to test).

So without further ado, last night:  Estimated sleep time 6.5 hours (11:00 pm to 5:30 am).  Grade:  B minus.  Was originally going with a B since I felt decent if not peppy when I woke up and I got up promptly, but docked a bit as I felt dozy in the recliner around 7:00 and that delayed getting going.  Breaking the recliner habit would be nice.

Rough grading scale:  A - feel good, awake, any level of pep, able to push out the door.  B - feel decent, awake when I wake, not notably peppy but able to get out of bed without issue.  C - feel average, not notably awake, no pep, don't really do anything right away beyond move to recliner.  D - feel lousy, not awake/sleepy, fatigued, may have a headache, struggle to get up.  F - feel awful, day is off to a very bad start.

Breakfast:  McD egg mcmuffin, hash browns, Coke, coffee

First time in a long time that I felt a strong desire for something carbonated in the morning.  Helped settle the stomach.  The egg mc and hash browns were excellent.

Lunch:  2x chili cheese dogs, fries, Coke, some wisconsin cheddar chips

Another excellent fast food meal.  On one hand I'll miss them, but really I won't.  You just pay too much of a price and the ingredients are scary.

Dinner:  TB chx ench burrito, root beer, deluxe pizza, sprite, cava

One more day after today. 

Exercise:  Nope.  2025 baby.

A Different Sort

Monday, December 30, 2024

Well, the good news is that we're almost done with 2024.  It's been a fattening couple weeks and I'm ready for the discipline to kick back in.  It's time.

Really, really, really slow getting going this morning.  That is definitely something that needs to change.

Breakfast:  CFA spicy chicken sandwich with pepperjack

Yeah, I was too late for breakfast.  But I didn't think I would make it until lunch, so I ate.

Lunch:  Deluxe sub

 

 

Later some wisconsin cheddar chips.  And a (free) CFA brownie from breakfast.

Dinner:  Deluxe pizza, 12 oz All Day IPA, a few avo oil chips, trader joe's 72% chocolate

No tacos, a local pizza place which is never open on Mondays was open, so I got a farewell (for now) pizza.  It was very tasty.

Exercise:  Nope.  Tired and fat.

No Not Tuesday

Sunday, December 29, 2024

Planning on lots of tacos today.  No, it is definitely not Tuesday.

Glad it isn't, frankly.  Slept poorly, was up way too late.  Too much food and I think the chocolate (i.e. caffeine) pushed things beyond where they should be.  Anyway, another morning where I didn't get moving until relatively late, though it was better than yesterday.

Breakfast:  Lazy bagels with cream cheese, coffee, almond pastry

Not going to lie, I'll miss this little Sunday morning tradition.  But I'll get over it.

Lunch:  Tacos w/ leftover prime rib, avocado, salsa, cotija cheese and cilantro, spicy beans

Very tasty.  Also some avo oil chips later.

Dinner:  Home hard shell tacos w/ LTC, doritos, applesauce, 12 oz Miller Lite, christmas cookies and ice cream

Sunday dinners.

Exercise:   Nope.  Another lazy day.  If I'd gotten up when I should I could have walked before the rain set in and it would have been a nice time.  Since I did not, I could not.

There's The Spike

Saturday, December 28, 2024

Yeah, there it is.  That's the jump I was expecting on the scale yesterday.  I really should stop the slide but I'm too much of an idiot.  I have this food, I'm going to eat it.  I just need to not buy more.

Weird night.  I changed into my night clothes when I got home, about 7:30.  Around 9:00 I started thinking about going to bed.  Got engrossed in something and then it was 11:00.  Went to sleep and felt like I was asleep a long time, but when I woke up due to excess liquid it was only 3:30.  I had been sound asleep and dreaming, and was tired enough to go back to sleep without getting up.  Managed a couple more hours, got up and rid of the liquid and then right back out in the recliner.  Didn't get going until 8:30.  Ugh.

Anyway, it remains to be seen how much I can accomplish today.  Lots I should do, but only so much motivation.

Breakfast:  CFA 2x spicy chicken biscuit, hash brown rounds small

Left right away once I got going in order to pick up my milk share, so I ate on the go.  One of my objectives for today is to get the kitchen and table picked up and the fridge cleaned out so I can get back to the regular breakfast rotation.

Lunch:  Bacon, spicy jala good crisps, Fredrik's dark chocolate mint marshmallow trees, coffee, 12 oz All Day IPA

Didn't really eat a meal.  Just grazed.  Bacon was leftover Oscar Mayer, not the good stuff.

Dinner:  Prime rib, mashed potatoes, cabernet sauvignon

First time making a rib roast, it was quite good.  And of course I have a lot of leftovers.

Capped it off with some Trader Joe's 72% cacao dark belgian chocolate.

Exercise:  Nope.

Getting Ready For The Reset

Friday, December 27, 2024

Got a nice chuckle when I saw the scale this morning.  Somehow was down two pounds, despite eating capital-M Massive quantities yesterday.  Sure, I also disposed of a Massive quantity mid-day, but I was expecting a gain.  I'm sure it'll be up again tomorrow. 

Actually beginning to look forward to getting back on the horse.  I have enjoyed eating some quality junk food -- lunch the last two days has been delightful -- but it's time.  I have things I want to accomplish.  And I won't get there living this way.

Breakfast:  Pretzel bagels with veggie cream cheese, coffee

Meh.  I won't miss these all that much.  I enjoy a good bagel, these are mediocre.

Lunch:  Italian beef sandwich, fries, chicago popcorn mix

A theme!  I got the popcorn for Christmas.

Dinner:   Keto bowl, more Chicago popcorn mix

Bowl was good as ever, but is on the list of things to cut back.

Exercise:  Nope.  Was very tired again this morning and didn't get up until almost 8:30.  Yikes.  Good thing I had no work obligations beyond showing up.

Encore

Thursday, December 26, 2024

A weird day.  I was very tired and very slow getting up this morning, if I didn't have somewhere I had to be by 9:00 I probably would have slept until noon.  Stupid work.  Made it through the day, though it wasn't very productive.

Scale was not up nearly as much as I thought it would be, I had visions of a multi-pound jump.  I'll be interested to see how tomorrow looks, as I had another massive eating day but also got rid of a lot.  Could be anything, but most likely up a couple.

Breakfast:  Big Mac, coffee

Yeah, a VERY weird breakfast.  About 10:35.  No time before leaving for work to even heat up some bacon, so I was going to grab a (free) Egg McMuffin but I was too late so I got a (free) burger instead.  It was okay.

Lunch:  Deluxe burger, avo oil chips and onion dip, chocolate drizzle caramel corn

Local 5 Guys clone.  Great burger.  Ate too much though.

Dinner:  Turkey dinner part 2

Same as yesterday.  No beer, though.

Exrecise:  Nope.

Peaceful If Not Restful

Wednesday, December 25, 2024

A fine Christmas morning.  Didn't get to sleep until sometime between 1:30 and 2:00, but still was able to get up before 7:00 to make the strata.  That will help keep things at least somewhat on schedule for the rest of the week too.

Expected a huge jump on the scale, got one.  I have lots of junk to eat, so it'll be rough for a week or so, but I'll get back on the horse.  I have big plans for 2025.

Breakfast:  Some homemade bread crusts and butter, coffee

Just crusts trimmed off the bread used for the strata.  

Brunch:  Sausage strata, banana nut bread w butter, grapefruit, orange juice, coffee, pecan caramel coffee cake

Traditional fare.

Snacked on some ranch mix, will also have some avo oil chips and onion dip.  Add a few peanut M&Ms

Dinner:  Turkey breast, mashed potatoes w gravy, stuffing, peas, roll w butter, cranberry, jello salad, 12 oz Miller Lite, christmas cookies and vanilla ice cream

Traditional feast.  Will be eating the leftovers tomorrow.

Add a glass of chocolate milk.

Exercise:  Nope.  One thing I was a little bummed about, I do enjoy getting up early on Christmas morning and walking through town.  Lots of people leave their holiday lights on and it's so peaceful.

Tradition and Something New

Tuesday, December 24, 2024

Christmas Eve day.  A day for family, tradition and lots of eating.  We do our big gathering today, tomorrow will be much more low key.  And it will involve more eating, lol.

Pleased to have had no issues with the wine, other than I ate too many carbs to soak some of the alcohol up.  Paid a predictable price on the scale.  So it goes.  But no hangover, headache, cramps or anything else, so maybe it is sufficiently clean.  I'll buy a bottle of red on Friday and try that ... with something else new!  I always look at the prime rib roasts when they're on sale around Christmas, but I have never purchased one.  This morning, I did.  So on Saturday I'm going to roast a prime rib and have that for a few days.

Well, better get going.  Bread going in the oven, gifts to wrap, appetizers to make.  Will be a busy but fun day.

Breakfast:  Buttermilk pancakes with butter and maple syrup, CF black pepper garlic bacon, orange juice, coffee

Yup, a Saturday breakfast on Tuesday.

Snack - ranch party mix

Lunch:  All of the food.  Sausage toasts, bacon crackers, cheese and crackers, celery with a bit of ranch, a couple chocolates, rum balls, you name it.  A couple glasses of lemonade.

You have to love holiday parties.

Dinner:  Sirloin, cheese fondue with bread cubes, 24 oz Coors Light, a glass of Riesling, peanut butter pie

Ate about 10:00, since everyone ate so much at lunch.

Exercise:  Nope.

Holiday Junk Part One

Monday, December 23, 2024

Okay, here we go with the holiday eating.  I've actually been pretty good this month.  The next few days won't be too pretty.  I'll need to find a way to get some exercise, I think.  And I don't mean full combat grocery shopping tomorrow morning.  I have a handful of things I want to get, so I'm hoping to go early.

Between sleeping in yesterday and all the sugar at night I was up way too late.  Which meant that I was very slow getting going this morning.  I definitely feel better without sugar in my life.

Breakfast:  CF black pepper garlic bacon, orange juice, coffee

Standard, good.

Lunch:  Jimmy Johns #9, toasted, salt and vinegar chips, diet lemonade, a bit of almond pastry and the smallest sliver of fudge imaginable

Not bad.  Toasting really improves Jimmy Johns.  A lot.

Dinner:  2x mexican 2x american tacos.  Going to try some Stellar Organics white wine

Tacos were average.  Drank entirely too much wine.  Added a sleeve of Club crackers to soak up some booze.

Exercise:  Nope.

Possible Aftereffects

Sunday, December 22, 2024

Not sure if it's the result of yesterday's activity or not, but I was tired this morning.  Slept okay, woke up at 5:00 feeling decent - was a little late going to bed, about 10:30.  Moved to the recliner and promptly crashed.  Didn't get up and moving until almost 9:00, ouch!  Feeling fine though, so if the aftereffects are just needing a little extra sleep I can deal with that.

Breakfast:  Lazy bagels, cream cheese, orange juice, coffee

Standard.  Cleaned up this week's OJ and an open container of cream cheese.

Lunch:  Soup and mash

I'm going to take this as another sign that my satiety switch may be healing, a standard bowl was actually a little more than I wanted and I am quite full.  Sure, I had more breakfast than I do on a weekday and later, but lazy bagels usually have zero satiety.

Also:  Avo oil chips and onion dip.  Too many of those.

Dinner:  Goulash, salad no dressing, garlic toast, 12 oz Miller Lite, christmas cookies with vanilla ice cream

 

 

Sunday dinners.

Exercise:  Nope.  Pretty lazy day.

Need To Go Bowlless

Saturday, December 21, 2024

Oh boy, here we go.  About to pick up breakfast and then go fight the crowds.  It's going to be capital U ugly.  I hit the grocery store a little after 6:30 and it was about ten times busier than it usually is at that time.  Ugh.  And a couple of the places I'm going to stop are crazy popular.  If I had ideas, I'd be shopping Amazon.

Looks like I'm going to have to give up the keto bowl, I didn't really enjoy being up this morning on the scale even though I didn't eat badly yesterday.  Guessing there are a ton of hidden seed oils, plus it's a lot of food.  Didn't feel like I retained extra water, legs were not swollen at all this morning.

Breakfast:  Buttermilk pancakes w butter and maple syrup, CF garlic black pepper bacon, orange juice, coffee

Fresh cakes and bacon.  Always good, and lots of leftovers for the fridge and freezer.

Lunch:  Brisket w spicy bbq sauce, a couple pickle slices, smoked mushrooms

From the bbq place with the mushrooms.  It was reasonably convenient so I stopped.  Very very tasty, but nearly $25.  It was better than grocery store brisket (plus mushrooms!) but was it three times better?

Much later, way too many spicy jalapeno Good Crisps.  Not buying those in 2025, they're too good.

Dinner:  Sourdough fusili with meat sauce, 12 oz All Day IPA

Finished off the box of fusili.  I have another box of the spaghetti and I bought a box of penne which is the only other type they make.  I like spaghetti better than fusili, but the fusili is fine.

Exercise:  I was going to say nope, but I checked my phone and with the shopping marathon I hit 10,000 steps so YES I am counting it.  I am tired.

Small Chunks Okay

Friday, December 20, 2024

Glad it is Friday.  It's been a busy morning, hopefully the afternoon is a bit more relaxed.  

Didn't get to bed or to sleep on time last night so I was quite sluggish this morning.  And late, of course.  On the positive side the scale was kind, with a nice small chunk drop.  It's trending in the right direction, not super fast but of course I'm not exactly being disciplined other than mostly eating at home.  I'm happy with the progress.  Now to survive holiday eating.

Breakfast:  CF sausage links, orange juice, coffee

A tasty breakfast.  A package of links only yields two days (three I guess if really stretched) of breakfasts, but in this case that worked out well.

Lunch:  Chicken soup, 2 slices extra sharp cheddar

Not what I was expecting, but when offered a bowl of homemade soup, sure.   It was good.

Dinner:  Keto bowl, chocolate milk

Again.  And it was nice, again, to be feeling full as I got near the end.

Exercise:  Nope.  While I was up early enough (5:45 or so), I was not awake.

It's All Connected

Thursday, December 19, 2024

We're getting there.  Super busy day today, then not as bad tomorrow, then a weekend.  A weekend which is going to be brutal since I have to do 80% of my Christmas shopping, but a weekend none the less.

During recliner time this morning I was thinking about how deeply all these personal issues are interconnected.  I'm fat because I've eaten poorly and sleep badly and don't get enough exercise.  I sleep badly because I'm fat, don't get enough exercise and often because I've eaten poorly.  I eat poorly because I'm fatigued, out of shape and fat.  I don't get enough exercise because I'm fat and tired and eat badly.  They reinforce each other and make it very difficult to change. In terms of difficulty to change, I think eating, strangely enough, is the easiest, though I've not been able to sustain it long term.  I can work with a diet plan with enough repeat meals of things I like that I will lose weight.  The other stuff is harder, especially sleep, because I have so little control over that.  I'm tired when I'm tired, it doesn't always make sense.  But if the other stuff fell into place, especially being less fat, maybe I'd sleep better and more consistently.

On a more positive note, there was a small drop on the scale.  So hooray for that.

Breakfast:  CF sausage links, orange juice, coffee

Tasty.

Lunch:  Grilled cheese, spicy beans with turkey

Also tasty.  The turkey is "True Story" brand.  I think I will buy again, though it is pricey.

Dinner: Home tacos, 12 oz All Day IPA, popcorn, chocolate milk

A bit excessive but all good stuff.

Exercise:  Nope.  Got up about 5:45 but was still very tired, went to bed too late.  Dozed.

97.8

Accelerating Calendar

Wednesday, December 18, 2024

Holy cow, is it really one week to Christmas?  It's coming up fast.

Pretty standard night.  Went to bed on time, got to sleep pretty quick.  Woke up at 4:30 and got up, though it was marginal.  Made an informed if dubious decision to skip the Y, I was limping pretty bad when I made the move to go about 6:00.  Up fractionally on the scale, I definitely need exercise.

Very busy day, which made for some deviation from the routine.

Breakfast:  Leftover brisket, a little Primal Kitchen BBQ sauce, orange juice, coffee

Reheated the brisket in a skillet with EVOO and it was good.  Not a bad breakfast fix.

Lunch:  Sandwich w turkey, swiss and cheddar on home bread.  Bubbies dill pickle.

Grabbed a quick bite at 2:00.  And I mean quick, I didn't even toast the bread and it very much suffered for the lack of it.  New kind of turkey, I'll try to note the brand tomorrow.  Nice clean label.

Dinner:  Home tacos, 12 oz All Day IPA, a few avo oil chips and dip, chocolate milk

Hit the farm for my weekly herdshare, so fresh milk.  Nice people there.  Tacos were a delight as always.

Exercise:  Nope.  The knee and leg aches and pains went away once I showered and got moving, at least.  Try again tomorrow.

98.6

Staying On Level

Tuesday, December 17, 2024

Hanging in at status level OKAY.  Things are just that, okay.

Sleep was okay.  Late getting to bed, slept fine, woke up once at 3:00 but was able to go back to bed.  I was pretty awake but elected not to stay up, at least not if I could go back to sleep easily which I did.  Woke up the second time about 6:15, so I managed nearly eight hours.  Not quite but okay.

Insignificant dip on the scale, but it was nice to see that I handled the day of many corn tortillas okay.  I think I'll finish my first package of thirty tonight, then work on the second one.  Thassalotta tortillas for one person.  I bought two because they're not carried locally.

Breakfast:  4 strips CF cherrywood bacon, orange juice, coffee

Last of the bacon.

Lunch:  Soup and mash, 2 slices meijer aged swiss

Again.

Dinner:  Home tacos, 12 oz All Day IPA, avo oil chips and onion dip, chocolate milk

So good.  I hope I can continue to have the tacos 3x per week, it's so easy as long as I've prepped the meat on the weekend.  Was going to have popcorn but audibled to the chips.  I like the Kalona SuperNatural onion dip that I've been buying lately, though it is definitely expensive.

Exercise:  404 file not found.  I have hopes of going to bed earlier tonight.

98.2

Lets Go Corn

Monday, December 16, 2024

Shame it had to be Monday again already.  Not a great night - was late getting to bed, sleep was fair.  Woke up at 5:00 but ended up dozing in the recliner as I was still quite tired.  Did a work-related walk this morning and I was fatigued going but felt fine walking back.  Guessing it was a combination of mediocre sleep and just plain old not enough sleep.  Needless to say I was unable to kick myself out the door to the Y.

Otherwise, things are going okay.  No change on the scale despite a lot of eating yesterday, which I was happy about.  Let's see how today goes, with leftovers for lunch and the usual Monday dinner I'll be eating way too many corn tortillas.

Breakfast:  5 strips CF cherrywood bacon, orange juice, coffee

I had more bacon left than expected, so I'll get one more day out of it.

Lunch:  Leftover huevos rancheros with 2 CF eggs fried in olive oil, sour cream and guac

Tasty again.  I'm going to tinker with some things next time.  I wondered how this would be quantity-wise ... turns out it was more than enough.  Very full.

Dinner:  2x mexican 2x american tacos, 12 oz All Day IPA, chocolate milk

The eggs did a great job of keeping me sated all afternoon, and now after dinner I am again pleasantly full.  I am really enjoying this feeling!  It doesn't always kick in, but it's happening more often lately and when it does I don't eat chips or other crap.

Exercise:   Nope.

Home Cooking And Heavy Stuff

Sunday, December 15, 2024

Very happy to have another weekend day, even though I'm planning to spend a good chunk of it at work.  I made major progress on a reorganization yesterday and I want to build on that by finishing the immediate stuff and getting some things lined up for the week.

Feeling pretty positive this morning, despite a sluggish start.  Got up at 4:45 but it took until 6:30 to really get moving.  A little sleepy but not enough to nod off completely.  It'll be okay.  The positive vibes were definitely enhanced by stepping on the scale, where I posted my best number since late September.  I mean it's still very high, I'm still very fat and all that, but it was still nice to see.  Turns out that eating at home and getting a little heavy exercise is good for you.  I'm also now "down" (lol) for the year.  It seems silly to forecast how things will go given my decades of fail, but I actually spent some time during my morning musing to consider how I can hold things together through the rest of the holiday season.  I am especially encouraged by the feeling I had a couple times this week of being full -- I was able, for example, to stop eating at lunch yesterday when I had enough.  The satiety signal has been so broken for so long it would be great to have it back.

Breakfast:  Lazy bagels with cream cheese, coffee

Seems like more of a new years resolution to axe the lazy bagels.  I do enjoy them.

Lunch:  Huevos rancheros (2 CF eggs fried in olive oil, corn tortillas, spicy beans, quick ranchero sauce, double cheddar cheese and a jalapeno), sour cream, 2 CF sausage links

Very delicious.  I learned a few things that can be applied to the next time I make it.  Tasted great and I have leftovers for tomorrow's lunch.  Ate the odd two links after portioning out the sausage I prepared for weekday breakfasts.

Also some spicy jalapeno Good Crisps later.

Dinner:  Chuck roast w gravy, mashed potatoes, carrots, strawberries and bananas, 24 oz Labatt Blue Light, vanilla cake w malted milk ball ice cream

Birthday party food.  All good, though the cake and ice cream was too much sugar.  Ugh, I don't like how I feel after that much.

Exercise:  Nothing specific, again an active day.  Way above average activity.

98.4

Acceptability

Saturday, December 14, 2024

TGIS.  I thought I would crash early last night having been up since 3:00 am, but surprisingly I did not.  I certainly could have, but I got wrapped up in something -- how sad is it that I don't even remember what -- and it was after 9:00 before I even looked up.  I'm sure it was something mundane, like looking up ingredients in store-bought enchilada sauce and Mexican breakfast recipes for tomorrow.

Woke up at 4:00, but was able to roll over and go back to sleep until almost 5:30.  I felt worse than I did when I first woke up but it wasn't bad.  Just a little sleepy.  And I was out of caffienated coffee.  Oops.

Anyway, slow start to the day, but very glad to have a weekend.  Lots and lots of things to do today.

Breakfast:  2 buttermilk pancakes with butter and maple syrup, "5" strips CF cherrywood bacon, orange juice, coffee

A tasty and easy (since the pancakes were the last of my previous batch from the freezer) weekend treat.

Lunch:  Smoked brisket, Primal Kitchen unsweetened classic BBQ sauce

 

Grocery store brisket.  Notably better than the last time I got it.  Tried the PK sauce, it's fine.  Kicked it up with some hot sauce and it was even better.  I got 3 fat slices (cut in half so it looks like six slices in the photo) of brisket for my eight bucks, could only eat two so I have leftovers.  I felt bad for the guy ahead of me in line who got the large order, which is twice the cost, I'm not sure he got twice the meat.

Will also have spicy jalapeno Good Crisps later, because like a dummy I bought some.

ETA:  At least I ate fewer than usual.

Dinner:  Sourdough fusili with meat sauce, 12 oz All Day IPA, chocolate milk

 

Last of the sauce, I got some bulk italian sausage at the farm this morning for the next batch.  Will probably add more tomato next time too.  I will say that I'm comfortably full and may be able to decrease quantities a bit (!)

Exercise:  Nope.  Active, but not scheduled.  Edit:  Strike that, emphatic YES.  A good couple hours of moving files and file cabinets.  Solid physical workout.

More Wednesday Than Thursday

Friday, December 13, 2024

For every yin, a yang.  And of course more rambling about sleep.

Last night was more like Tuesday night -- I was a little later getting to sleep, but slept okay.  I woke up a 3:00 and was awake.  Not exhausted, not fatigued, not dozy.  I didn't feel as good as I did Wednesday, but it was close enough.  And miles better than I felt yesterday.  Scale hasn't moved much, just down fractionally each of the last few days.  That's fine.

Although I didn't get a great deal accomplished -- I baked some bacon that I forgot to do last evening -- and I didn't work out due to early work commitments having me worried, it was still a good morning.  I enjoyed some recliner time, just thinking, after I finished doomscrolling.  It was pleasant.

Breakfast:  ~ 6 strips CF cherrywood bacon, orange juice, coffee

This bacon is much narrower than the last packages of the other kind, so it has more strips per pound.  I figure it was about the same serving size as 4 strips of the prior pack.

Lunch:  Soup and mash, Tillamook extra sharp cheddar

Standard stuff, working on finishing the block of cheese, will knock off the rest with lunch tomorrow I think.  

Dinner:  Keto bowl, chocolate milk

Standard.  I think my regular burrito artist has been making the bowl a bit oversized as once again I am quite full after eating it.

Exercise:  Nope.  Should have, didn't.
