Fail
Exercise: Nope

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.

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

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

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
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.

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.

Nothing unusual to report, really.
Breakfast: 2 eggs over medium, hash browns, 3 strips bacon, raisin toast w jelly, coffee
Standard.
Lunch: Chips and onion dip.

Phew. It was not a good week. Not at all. Needed to a lot more work than I did. At least I hit up a couple farms and restocked the freezer and milk supply.
But it's over and a holiday weekend is upon us.
Breakfast: 3 CF sausage patties, coffee
Last.
Lunch: CFA spicy chicken sandwich add pepper jack, fries
It was okay, but I think I'm pretty much done with fast food chicken.
Dinner: Burger with MPMushOnionJala and american cheese, tons of fries w ketchup, ice cream sandwiches
Local 5 guys style place, very good burger. Meh on the fries but there were a million of them.
Exercise: Nope

Thursday, May 22, 2025
Not a great day. Woke up after a couple hours with nasty acid reflux and spent the rest of the night in the recliner. I just don't sleep well under those conditions. Had nothing at work, did the bare minimum. Disappointing.
I did spend some time on a new plan. We'll see if I can put into action.
Breakfast: 3 CF sausage patties, coffee
Again.
Lunch: TB double beef burrito, loaded beef nachos
Not awful and only six bucks. I could not decide what I wanted today.
Dinner: Hut thin pep ham beef, breadsticks
Ugh.
Exercise: Nope

Wednesday, May 21, 2025
Trying to be thankful for what I got.
Definitely thankful that it's been a relatively light week. I have not been locked in. Not at all. It's been a real struggle getting focused on anything.
Had a weird incident mid afternoon where my eyes just went loco, got a little dizzy and just felt way off for a while. Not vertigo, I don't think, but not entirely unlike it. Had some water, stepped away from the screens and it cleared up eventually. I hope that it does not repeat.
Breakfast: 3 CF sausage patties, bread w butter, coffee
Again. Excellent satiety.
Lunch: 4 eggs scrambled w onions and peppers, cheese, hash browns
Much like yesterday. It was okay, I guess.
Dinner: LC pep pizza, crazy bread and sauce
Worst one I've had. Might help wrt to not going back.
Exercise: Nope.

Tuesday, May 20, 2025
No reason. Really.
Anyway, another day. Calling yesterday a success as I consumed no beetus juice. Hopefully done with that and also starting to make dietary progress.
Breakfast: 3 CF sausage patties, bread w butter, coffee
Again. Last package of sausage, I'll have to find my way out to the farm.
Lunch: 4 eggs, sunny mostly hard. Hash browns in refined coconut and olive oil, a few chips
Probably will have a slice of bread w butter also.
Dinner: Wendys singles/son of baconator, cheese toast
Couldn't decide what to have.
Exercise: Nope, rained out.
114.2
Monday, May 19, 2025
New week. Not ready for it but I will do it.
Didn't sleep great and definitely could have used more. I'm so sluggish in the morning. My knees (and adjacent muscles and such) are also not real thrilled. Getting up isn't my most favorite thing right now. Hopefully axing some stuff, starting with the beetus juice, and losing some pounds will help.
Breakfast: Bread w butter, coffee
Surprisingly good satiety.
Lunch: Double cheeseburgers, fries
From the local.
Dinner: 2x mexican 2x american tacos, a few Krunchers
Might be time for a break from taco Monday.
Exercise: Nope
114.6
Sunday, May 18, 2025
Very sluggish this morning. Woke up at 4:00, then at 5:45. Moved to the recliner, didn't really get back to a deep sleep. Disappointing since I didn't even set an alarm. Just lazed about forever, which is going to push a lot of chores to this evening.
Breakfast: Cheese toast, coffee
Lazy food.
Lunch: 2x son of baconator, coke
Quick.
Dinner: Steak, mashed potatoes, asparagus, 12 oz Miller Lite, ice cream, coke, krunchers, no bakes

TGIS. It's been a good day. But I sure have nothing in the tank after a long day of golf.
Nothing.

Screwed up the toast order.
Lunch: 12 oz Miller Lite, chips and onion dip, some taco bell

Kinda ran out of gas this afternoon, but I did get done the minimum. So at least there is that.

It's taken a long time to get there but I think I'm ready to stop the slide. This weekend. Let's go.
Today, however, meh.
Breakfast: 3 CF sausage patties, bread w butter, orange juice, coffee
Again. Dunno if the bread will still be good tomorrow.

Especially time to stop with the beetus juice.
Exercise: Nope. Did I mention extreme fatness?
115.2
Wednesday, May 14, 2025
Bah. Just not doing anything. No effort. No drive. No goals. Just drifting through the week.
Not impressive.
Nor is eating the bags of crap that make me fat.
Breakfast: 3 CF sausage patties, bread w butter, orange juice, coffee
Again.
Lunch: Sack of Wendys burgers
Burgers only.
Dinner: Sack of Taco Bell, Pepsi, leftover deluxe pizza
Sack o' fatness
Exercise: Nope

I'll take it.
Add some semi-sweet chocolate chips to last night too.
Breakfast: 3 CF sausage patties, bread w butter, orange juice, coffee
Lunch Sack of Taco Bell, Pepsi

Did not have it today, not at all. It was bad.
No pep. A bit of headache. Felt off. And of course the late day sinus allergies. Ugh.
Breakfast: A couple beef snack stick bites, coffee
These would have been much better a week ago. Didn't eat much, just tossed 'em.
Lunch: Double cheeseburgers, fries
Local place, great burgers.
Dinner: Chili cheese dogs, fries, coke, a few chips
Another local place, very tasty. Not good for diet, but tasty.
Exercise: Nope

Friday, May 9, 2025
Whew.
Nothing much else worth saying.

Yuh.

Ugh.

Sigh.
Dinner: Chili cheese dogs, fries, coke, Jala Krunchers

Again, got nothing today. It was moderately productive.
Ending with annoying sinuses. Damn them.
Breakfast: 2 CF sausage patties, bread w butter, orange juice, coffee
Again.
Lunch: Jimmy Johns toasted italian w usual mods, salt and vinegar chips, diet lemonade
A lot of food, too many carbs.
Dinner: LC extra pep pizza w sauce, pepsi
WAY too many carbs. And too much food.
Exercise: Nope

Tuesday, May 6, 2025
Got nothing today. Nothing interesting at all.
About all I can say is that it was a fantastically productive morning.
Breakfast: 2 CF sausage patties, bread w butter, orange juice, coffee
Again. Excellent satiety.
Lunch: Turkey and cheese sandwich, Maiz taco flavor avo oil tortilla chips
Supersized the sandwich. If the local baker did half loaves I'd buy those, there are a million slices in a full loaf - even going nuts with the bread the date is up tomorrow so I'll end up chucking half a loaf in the freezer.
Dinner: French dip, 12 oz Miller Lite
It was a very bready day. Also TB 2x soft taco and loaded beef nachos.
Exercise: 9 holes with cart

Monday, May 5, 2025
Ugh, Monday again. It was not a great day.
Didn't really get enough sleep, was late getting to bed and then only slept so-so. Could have used a couple more hours. Hoping to get to bed earlier tonight.
Breakfast: 2 CF sausage patties, 2 slices bread w butter, orange juice, coffee
This was actually more than I needed.
Lunch: Turkey sandwich w butter, cheddar asiago cheese
Five minute lunch. Turkey is smoked, from the BBQ place. Pretty good but the satiety was meh.
Dinner: Leftover brisket, beans, guac, Maiz taco flavor tortilla chips, 12 oz All Day IPA
Decided to skip the usual tacos due to Cinco de Mayo. Excessive.
Exercise: Nope

Sunday, May 4, 2025
Slow start this morning. While I was ready to go to bed early last night, it took far too long to motivate myself out of the recliner. Got up at 5:00, scrolled for a bit, then dozed off in the recliner. Lots of dreaming so I was asleep.
Anyway, of note this morning was that my bad leg was completely unswollen and the same size as the other. This happens every couple of months and I never have any idea why. It doesn't appear to be correlated with anything, the only thing unusual about yesterday is that I drank less water. But nothing dramatic. This is a mystery I'll probably never solve.
Breakfast: Parmesan toast, coffee
Very late breakfast, almost lunch
Lunch: Ham and wild rice soup
Was supposed to be Friday's lunch.
Dinner: BLT, chips, 12 oz Miller Lite, ice cream and cookies
Sunday dinners. Also fourthmeal: 2x Wendys son of baconator, coke
Exercise: 18 holes with cart. Extra walking. TIRED.

Saturday, May 3, 2025
Glad to have a weekend.
Nothing of any particular note.
Breakfast: 2 eggs over medium, hash browns, 3 strips bacon, raisin toast w jam, coffee.
Earlier, I had a couple lemon cinnamon rolls I bought yesterday. Which I should not have. Really need to swear off buying grocery store baked goods, they're full of "ingredients".
Lunch: A couple cashews, 12 oz Miller Lite
Post-golf.
Dinner: Brisket w Stubbs spicy BBQ sauce, a few chips, another couple lemon cinnamon rolls
Today's course took me past a BBQ place. Poured way too much sauce.
Exercise: 18 holes with cart, more walking than usual.

Friday, May 2, 2025
Whew. Made it through the week. It was a rough one.
Need to find some time for lots of things this weekend. Golf both days is going to make that a challenge.
Breakfast: McD burrito, sausage mcmuffin, hash brown. Coffee
Okay.
Lunch: Qdoba brisket bowl
Also okay.
Dinner: Steak and Shake double burger, fries
Meh.
Also a few chips, onion dip, 12 oz All Day IPA

April is in the books and good riddance. Technically I was down a few pounds for the month, all of which took place over two days.
Strangely enough I was down some today for no obvious reason. I had a major blowup last night, ate way too much chain pizza. Frustrated. Annoyed. Tired. All of the things. And yet here we are. I felt fat this morning but it was still fairly dense.
Anyway, whatever. Not a good day today either. But tomorrow is Friday. I have plans to hit a new grocery store for a couple items I can't get locally. There will probably be brisket involved. And hopefully much golf (and a little work) this weekend.
Breakfast: 2 strips CF HD bacon, coffee
Last of it.
Lunch: Jimmy Johns toasted italian (minus mayo, v&o, plus mustard and peppers), salt and vinegar chips, diet lemonade
Work.
Dinner: Chips and onion dip, taco rice, guac, 12 oz All Day IPA, chocolate milk
Excessive. And a very chippy day.
Exercise: Nope. Need to get moving.
