A Regrettable Lack of Focus

Sunday, March 20, 2022

Work division.  Should be there right now, instead I'm typing this, at home, while drinking my second cup of coffee.  Dawdling.  Lunch, possible golf and dinner are going to take up large chunks of the rest of the day.  I just ... donwanna.  Even though I do need to go.

A very modest gain this morning, less than I expected actually.  Knew I'd be up - chain pizza makes me thirsty and I noted before I went to bed that I was retaining.  No worries.

Breakfast:  Coffee, 1 slice rye bread w/ generous butter

Ran out of semolina so I threw some rye in my loaf yesterday, turned out fine.  I seem to always have an odd slice when I cut it up, this morning I was happy to have one.  Still went 15 hours without eating since I had an early dinner yesterday.

Lunch:  Ham soup, homemade reuben (corned beef, swiss, kraut, '1000 island' dressing)

Made the soup last night, it's fine.  Not the best batch I've made, but I did just wing it.   Sandwich was delightful, the dressing was Heinz NSA ketchup and avocado oil mayo.  

Snack:  Hamburger soup, 12 oz All Day IPA

Had a runt half jar of the soup (also made last night), glad I did as I knew it would take a while to make the pizza and I was hungry when I got home from golf.

Dinner:  Home pizza with italian sausage

Yum.  Very tasty.

Exercise:  18 holes walking, 13500 steps.  3 hours 45 minutes, no sitting.  Was 100% fine for 15 holes, a little poky the last three.  I'll sleep well tonight.

Breaking In The Middle

Saturday, March 19, 2022

Lunch break.  Got to the office before 7:30 and put in 5+ solid hours before coming home.  Productive is good.  I have the carrot - if I can get this project done this afternoon I can take the evening off, relax and enjoy a little basketball.  I'll have to go back tomorrow morning for a few more hours, but if the weather cooperates I may sneak out for a few holes in the afternoon.  We'll see.

And let's see if I can keep the weekend gainz to no more than 2 or 3 pounds, it would be nice to be less fat, especially in the midsection.

Breakfast:  Coffee

Yup.  Needed a third cup .. the last one being decaf.

Lunch:  3 eggs scrambled with cheddar cheese, 2 sausage patties, sour cream and guac, 4 La Bandeteria street taco low net carb 'keto' tortillas

Didn't have anything thawed and decided not to have straight corned beef, I was going to make rye bread but have shelved that idea for now, the timing just doesn't work.  Tortillas were an impulse buy a couple weeks ago for a cooking project that never came off.  I'm skeptical of the zero net carb claim but they're only 20 calories each anyway.

Dinner:  Dominos thin crust, pep ham onion, 12 oz Miller Lite

Sucked in by a deal.  Not many regrets.

Exercise:  Nope.  Did get up, it was raining and I hate cold rain more than any other weather condition.  Weak.

Nudged Right

Friday, March 18, 2022

Whew, Friday.  Glad, even though the weekend offers no respite right now.  Other than from the phone.  And a little more flexibility.  I do have a hard deadine on a project, but I've known that it's coming and have made some progress on it anyway.  And a million other things to do, alas.

I did manage to crash relatively early and woke up at 4:30, so that was good.  Managed to nudge my clock in the correct direction for once.  Feels good man.  App said almost no snoring, which ... I dunno.  I did avoid all diary except butter on the popcorn but I was still pretty full when I went to bed.  Did have something different with the corned beef dinner but don't think that should be too impactful.  Can't think of any other notable factors that would have produced a much better result than I've had recently.  /shrug.

Am definitely happy that my body seemed to tolerate the corned beef fine, since I have leftovers for tonight and probably a Rueben for lunch tomorrow.

Breakfast:  Coffee

Yup.

Lunch:  Soup, toast and Fage 2% plain yogurt

Out of cottage cheese so I ate the yogurt I had on hand.  The store was out of the 5% kind when I bought it, can't say I noticed all that much of a difference.

Dinner:  Leftover corned beef with carrots and onion, sauerkraut, 12 oz All Day IPA, popcorn w butter

Carbon copy.  Once again tasty.  Didn't bother to take a photo of the popcorn, just see yesterday.

Exercise:  Walk, 1.8 miles, 37 minutes.  Nice morning for it, 40ish degrees and the rain + cold held off until later today.  Felt notably good the first third and walked much faster than usual.  A few minor aches and pains the second third.  Kinda hit the wall and the last third was pretty slow, at least until the last couple blocks.  Overall shaved a couple minutes from my usual time and I'm happy about that.

Corned Effect

Thursday, March 17, 2022

Let's see how the body reacts to corned beef.  Lots of it.  I suspect it may be too salty to be entirely welcomed, but who knows.  I just hope it turns out!  In the crock as I type this, added carrots and onion at lunch, should be plenty done by the time dinner rolls around.  I didn't throw any potatoes in there, all I have on hand are russets and I didn't feel like peeling anyway.

Breakfast:  Coffee

Yup.

Lunch:  Soup, toast and cottage cheese

Again.  Same exact thing.  Not tired of it.

Dinner:  Corned beef, carrots and onions, sauerkraut, 12 oz All Day IPA, popcorn w butter

Turned out pretty good.  The corned beef isn't cadillac quality but still manages to be tasty.

Exercise:  Nope.  Dammit.  Woke up at 5:00 so I could and fought for it for a while but I knew it was unlikely -- I got about 4 1/2 hours of sleep to that point.  I just don't wind down fast enough from late nights at the office.  Next couple days are looking iffy and this morning was ideal so I'm definitely bummed.

Bodies Still Weird

Wednesday, March 16, 2022

I'm sure I'll never fully understand the human body.  Yesterday, I felt reasonably good about my food choices.  Usual lunch, meatloaf and a beer for dinner, carb count in check.  Then I ate what I thought were way too many of the lentil chips.  Figured I had taken in enough starch in those 500ish calories to prevent any water from leaving the premises.  Instead, I processed a ton overnight.  Got rid of it this morning.  And the scale shows it.  Big drop.  Just water.  After a day where I probably had 100g of carbs.  It's weird man.

But I'm not complaining.  And hey, it looks like Amazon got my delivery right so I'll have some new jeans to try on tonight.

Breakfast:  Coffee

Yup.

Lunch:  Soup, toast, cottage cheese

Same as yesterday.  Soup still more stew-y than soupy, still good.

Dinner:  Lentil soup, bacon, 12 oz All Day IPA

Was given an open package of bacon, so I cooked up the rest.  Good stuff.  Last of the first batch of lentils, also good stuff.

Exercise:  Nope.  Woke up at 5, reset alarm for 6 and it seemed like it went off instantly.  Apparently I really, really needed more sleep.  Didn't get to bed early enough.  Need to put down the phone.

Nostradumbass

Tuesday, March 15, 2022

My prediction skills are improving, at least when it comes to my weight, especially when a binge (or coming off one) is involved.  Nailed it this morning, again.  OK, fine, I was two tenths of a pound off, but you know, rounding.  Dumbass.  I did eat a bunch (too many really) of pork rinds last night ... but my guess was higher than reality.

Anyway, the week is steamrolling along.  Some work getting done but not nearly enough.  It's going to be a brutal 3 1/2 days, followed by some time on the weekend.

Ordered a pair of jeans in the minimum size (2 down from my current, way-too-big pair), they came yesterday ... and they were the wrong size.  Wrong waist, wrong inseam.  Doh.  Try again Amazon.

Breakfast:  Coffee

Yup.

Lunch:  Soup, toast, cottage cheese

Standard.  Soup wasn't as soupy, in fact it was very much more like a stew.  Finally figured out that I forgot to add any vegetable juice.  Already knew that I didn't add any extra broth or water.  Whatever.  Still tastes good.

Dinner:  Leftover meatloaf w/ Heinz NSA ketchup, Enjoy Life lentil chips dill and sour cream flavor, 12 oz All Day IPA

Enjoyed the pile of meatloaf.  Ate way too many of the chips, which I bought on impulse and while good, they're neither clean nor, you know, necessary.  So I probably won't buy again.

Exercise:  Nope.  Kinda sorta got up at 5:00 but snoozed in the chair.  Despite going to sleep relatively early was still very tired.  Try again tomorrow.  I need to not stay too late at work tonight.

End of Shoveling

Monday, March 14, 2022

A much more normal Monday.  Which isn't to say that it's fun, because it is not.  But it's normal and that's not always a bad thing.

Accurately predicted the gainz this morning.  In a day or two or three the retained solids and liquids will sort themselves out and I'll just have to deal with a couple pounds of excess energy consumed.  It's just like most weeks of late.  And it would be nice if I could shed this stuff plus a couple more before my trip.

Breakfast:  Coffee

Yup.

Lunch:  Sausage lentil soup, toast w butter, cottage cheese

Had an oddball container of the soup so I kept that in the fridge for today.  Plan down the road is to eat more of the lentil soup for dinner instead of lunch, but we'll see.  Plans may change.  

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

Tasty as always.  Still vaguely hungry, might have some pork rinds or something.

Exercise:  Nope.  Didn't sleep early, didn't wake early, was very tired.

Shoveling Garbage

Sunday, March 13, 2022

Last day of this.  I'm going to be nicely stocked up on good stuff for the coming week and while it will be extremely busy, the stress level should be ratched down a notch or two.  Lunch should be a thing again.

Predicted this morning's bloatup pretty accurately.  NEED the good week I have planned.  Crap food makes one feel like, well, crap.  At least I think I'll be burned out on some things - enough with the donuts, and I was rather disappointed with last night's frozen pizza.  Now if that can also be true of the chips and onion dip we'll be cooking with gas.

Breakfast:  Apple Fritters, coffee

Yup.  Meijer version this time, they were OK.

Lunch:   2 eggs scrambled, biscuits and gravy

Also taste-tested my hamburger vegetable soup for the week by eating the couple spoonfuls that didn't fit into my jars.

Snack:  Chips and onion dip

Also bought and opened a bottle of zero sugar A&W root beer yesterday, it's pretty decent.  I may continue to try various other kinds (when on sale like this week) just to built a list of what's drinkable.  DPZS likely to remain the king, though, the only diet soda that I actually like.

Dinner:   Meatloaf, box potatoes, green beans, peaches, roll w butter, 12 oz Miller Lite

Also, Wendy's single and frosty.

Exercise:  Nope.  Snowing, cold, windy, miserable.  And that daylight savings BS.  Warm front expected this afternoon, so starting tomorrow conditions will finally be improving.  Need to get out there since a golf mini vacation is coming in two and a half weeks.

Garbage In Garbage In

Saturday, March 12, 2022

A day off today, to be followed by plugging.  Lots and lots of plugging.

Breakfast:  Apple fritters and coffee

Yup.  Wait what.

Oh.

Lunch:  Keto bowl, large

Yup.  What .... wat

Oh.  Large.

Snack:  Chips and onion dip

Yup.  Oh.  Not that many at least.

Dinner:  Home Run Inn sausage supreme frozen pizza. 12 oz Miller Lite

Yup.  Oh.  Yeah.  Didn't eat it last night, got home too late.  So I'm skipping the homemade pizza this week.  Also taste tested my new batch of sausage lentil soup, very delicious.

Exercise:  Nope.  Up at 5:30 but not out, very cold and windy, sub zero windchill.  Time change tomorrow, oh joy.

42.8

Well That Is Over

 Friday, March 11, 2022

Finally finished with that work obligation.  Will say no more.  Apparently eating once per day is effective for weight loss though even when you eat CRAP.

Breakfast:  Marble cornbread scramble, potatoes, coffee

Lunch:  Jimmy Johns vito, salt and vinegar chips

Dinner:  CFA spicy sandwich, frosted lemonade, chips and onion dip

Exercise:  Nope.  Woke up at 3:30 though.

More Than Ten Second Delay

Sunday, March 6, 2022

Not a fan of when it takes an extra day for the excess to catch up to you.  I mean, it wasn't enough to be anything more than a slight annoyance, but annoying it is to see the scale go up.  Going to blame it on the pizza, since yesterday was not a terrible eating day carbwise and I was quite active.  I even got extra sleep last night.  Oh well.

Today being Sunday and having a birthday party this evening I'll be earning my FAIL badge dammit.

It's going to be a ridiculously stressful week.  I am really not looking forward to it and the stress has definitely impacted my weekend.

Breakfast:  6 strips Meijer bacon

Yeah, breakfast.  Hungry enough that I wanted something with my coffee.  So I ate the leftover bacon.

Lunch:   Barbacoa, cilantro lime rice, Bush's southwest sidekicks beans, Torpillaz ranch chips, salsa

Friday's planned dinner plus a few of the chipz.  Barb remained excessively chipotle'd.  I think I have two left in the freezer.  Last of the rice.  Half a can of beans, cleaned up the salsa.  Hearty.  Satisfying.  And quite tasty, if a bit overly smoky.

Snack:  Chips and onion dip.  Sigh.

Dinner:  Lasagna, salad no dressing, garlic bread, chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream, glass of whole milk

I make a darned good lasagna.  Ate way too much, of course.  Darned parties.

Exercise:  Nope.  Back to the lousy smarch weather, with colder temps and wind gusts up to 60 this morning.  Stayed home, stayed in bed.

40.6

A Different Price For Excess

Saturday, March 5, 2022

Well that's not really how I expected to (hopefully) get the sleep schedule back on track.  Ate too much, too late, too wrong and paid for it.  Woke up at 3:30, gave up and got up before 4:30.  As much as I love pizza it doesn't always love me back - the acid from the tomato, the dairy accentuating winter sinus issues, the feeling of being stuffed because I don't stop after a slice.

Will be trying to make the best of it.  Got in a walk since it hasn't snowed for a few days and it's been enough above freezing and sunny to get the sidewaks clear.  We're even supposed to have a one day warmup today well into the 50s.  Too bad it's only the one day and the long range forecase is back to cold (plus snow on Monday).  I'm ready for spring.

Also, two things that kinda go without saying:  TGIS, and thank goodness I didn't take a hit on the scale.  (lol)

Breakfast:  Coffee

Yup. 

Lunch:  Breakfast

A lot of breakfast.  Okay, fine.  Some details.  3 eggs over easy cooked in butter, 6 strips Meijer bacon, a couple air fryer biscuits out of the freezer and freshly-made sausage gravy.  Excessive but so so good.  Hopefully this holds me until dinner.

Dinner:  Keto bowl with ground beef, 12 oz All Day IPA

Since I had the frozen pizza last night I elected not to have the usual home pizza tonight.  Instead, I indulged a craving for a real keto bowl instead of my incomplete faux version.

Exercise:   Walk, new usual loop, 1.8 miles, 42 minutes.  Slow but steady.  A little tight and a little strained but never painful or anything.  It was good to get some movement in.  I wouldn't say it was fun but it was definitely fine.

40.2

Only Some Carbs

 Friday, March 4, 2022

Maybe the body does treat different carbs differently.  Or there is such a thing as carb shock when your body goes WTF when you give it something new, only to have it go unexpectedly to your benefit.  Dunno.  I had trepidation about what would happen with the lentil soup.  I've had lentils before, but given that I've been treading water lately I didn't know what to expect.  And what I got was ... fine?  Good even?  It didn't interfere with water disposal.  Nice drop this morning, almost back to where I was at the start of February.  Good things.  We'll see if today goes as well.

Also of note the last two days I have at times had some more pep in my step.  A little extra zip going up stairs.  Even felt like I could have jogged last evening coming home.  This is a VERY happy development after musings lately about how disappointed I've been in how I feel.  Again, we'll see if it continues, but it is nice to feel like I have extra power in the legs when climbing stairs for example.

Breakfast:  Coffee

Yup.

Lunch:  Sausage lentil soup, toast, cottage cheese

Yes this is a repeat and I am fine with that.  Two left in the freezer for next week and I may make another batch just because it's stupid easy.

Dinner:  Home Run Inn deluxe frozen pizza, 12 oz Miller Lite

FAIL.  Pretty good tho.

Exercise:  Nope.  Woke up at 6:00 but wasn't real awake.  Warmth coming for tomorrow so I'm planning on taking extra time to get outside and be active.  Just maybe not at 0-dark-30.

40.6

Lentilly

 Thursday, March 3, 2022

New soup today.  Pretty good stuff.  I do need to add a bowl of it to yesterday's totals, since I did more than just sample it after it was done last night.

Nothing much else, just trying to make it through the week.  I did have pretty good physical pep this morning, but I have to say that mentally I am just not that into it.  Is problem.

Breakfast:  Coffee

Yup.

Lunch:  Sausage lentil soup, toast, cottage cheese

Soup is italian sausage, lentils, carrot, tomato, onion, chicken broth, garlic, seasoning.  I thought it would need more seasoning but it doesn't.  Works just fine as is.  Big ol' bowl, too, I probably could have packaged up slightly less generous portions.

Dinner:  Taco bowl, popcorn, 12 oz All Day IPA

All good.

Exercise:  Nope.  Same ol.  Man it's going to suck making the DST switch soon.

Not Much Punished

Wednesday, March 2, 2022

Didn't pay a price for last night's dalliance with pizza.  Happy about that.  Definitely had visions of some water weight hanging around for a day or two.  It's easier to justify on Saturdays when I am (usually) much more active, but whew.

Read an interesting article this morning about the link between weight gain and being sleep deprived.  I knew some of the biological stuff, but it was nice to get the referesher course.  Definitely possible that my sleep has been inadequate lately and that's contributed to the hunger.  I use the term "the hunger" as a term of art -- I may not actually be hungry, I just have a relentless desire to eat.  Lots of ghrelin.

On another subject, need to make soup tonight as I am again completely out.  Have a new recipe to try, I hope it turns out!

Breakfast:  Coffee

Yup.  The hormonal balance is fine in the morning.

Lunch:  Soup and toast, cottage cheese

Standard.

Dinner:  Taco bowl, popcorn w extra butter, 12 oz All Day IPA

Good stuff.

Exercise:  Nope.  Same issues.

42.8

Unabated

Tuesday, March 1, 2022

Hungry tonight.  Didn't write any of this at lunch as I typically do, so I may be crankier than usual.  Dunno what it is but some days the switch flips and I want to eat EVERYTHING.  I'm only being saved by not having a lot of stuff on hand that would provide quick gratification.

February books are closed.  Didn't lose any weight, actually up a couple pounds but nothing significant.  Considering the spikes, not unhappy.  I ate a LOT of junk and didn't get much exercise.  Ready for warmer weather.

Breakfast:  Coffee

Yup.  Fine in the mornings.

Lunch:  Soup and toast, cottage cheese

Same.

Dinner:  Soup and toast, Grando's veggie "street pizza", 12 oz All Day IPA

I had an extra serving of soup from this batch and figured I had better eat it.  Last one will be lunch tomorrow.  Have a new recipe on tap after that.  Ate the street pizza a little later - if I had planned earlier to eat it I would have skipped the toast.  Oh well.

LOL at this being 62g of carb.  Good grief.

Exercise:  Nope.  No progress.

43.2

It's The Knee

Monday, February 28, 2022

Last day of the month.  February has not been a success, but that's life.  At least this weekend wasn't quite as bad eating-wise.  Glad to not pay too steep a price for last night.

Was musing a while back about why I haven't had the pep to try jogging despite comparable weight loss to 2012-13.  Thinking about it lately, I really think it is the cumulative injuries, especially my knee.  It just has no strength, pretty sure I tore a ligament or two when I hurt it and while it's functional for basic stuff (and walking) I don't think I can push it.  Diet may also be a factor, still too many carbs, but the body is the biggest impediment.  But that's okay, I'm fine if I can just walk without restriction.  Don't need to run.

Breakfast:  Coffee

Yup.

Lunch:  Soup and toast, cottage cheese

Standard.  I'll make hamburger vegetable one night this week for the freezer.

Dinner:  2 american 2 mexican tacos, bacon, 24 oz Miller Lite

My satiety switch is just broken right now.  Tacos weren't quite as fat and I ended up scrounging for easy stuff to eat.  Leftover bacon from the weekend did the trick.  Now, I just need to not get into the habit of having more than one beer.

Exercise:  Nope.  Got up at 6:00, which is good, but was rather tired.  Warmer temps are coming so I need to shift the schedule ffs.

Talking Out

Sunday, February 27, 2022

Managed to talk myself out of working this morning.  I do have some things to be done around the house, but I sure do have a ton of work work to do.  Hopefully I can complete my chores and head in after lunch for a few hours.  We'll see.  I'm really good at talking myself into sloth.

Anyway, despite staying up way way way too late last night I don't feel bad this morning.  Easing into things is good for that.  I have the local news on and they just showed a graphic with the 7 day weather forecast, all seven days are slightly above freezing for highs.  Progress!  Still below average a bit but still, a positive sign.  We've been consistently cold since the first of the year with none of the occasional warmups that we see in some winters.  I'm ready to get back outside.

Scale was OK, down a little thanks probably to non-water.  Good news for a winter weekend day.

Breakfast:  Coffee

Definitely like it better in the insulated mug.  I'm going to have to make that switch at home too.

Lunch:  Ham soup and toast, Fage 5% yogurt plus blueberries and a sprinkle of sugar

Fresh batch of soup and toast both made last night.  Soup was more liquidy due to more liquid (duh) and probably less flour and potatoes.  Didn't measure anything.  Also had a thought - I wonder if anyone drinks seasoned chicken broth plus cream?  The liquid in this soup is so good.  Sure, I like the solid parts too a great deal, but it seems like it could be an easy wintertime beverage for keto people trying to up their fat.  Dunno.

Snack:  SF vanilla pudding w whole milk and unsweetened coconut

Eating stuff that was on hand produces some interesting choices.  Was enjoyable, if not good for me.  Kinda have 'the hunger' this afternoon.

Dinner:  Home tacos american style, Doritos, applesauce, 12 oz Miller Lite

Tasty but ldo not good for me.  Sunday dinners.

Also:  Wendy's single, fries, Frosty.  Sigh.

Exercise:  Nope.  Still way off on schedule.  Conditions were probably doable if cold, with a windchill in the single digits, I just haven't fixed the sleep.

42.6

Chicken Thoughts And Pork

Saturday, February 26, 2022

Lots of pork today.

Found myself pondering this morning.  I could have done without the chicken last night, it was fairly late when I ate it and it added 35-40g of carbs to my intake for the day.  Didn't take too much to determine that I went over the limit, didn't flush as much water as the day before despite a similar evening liquid intake.  The beans may also have contributed of course.  Stupid body biochemistry and stuff.

Breakfast:  Coffee

Yup.  Full morning at the office so it was just like a regular workday.

Lunch:  2 egg omelet with cheddar cheese, biscuits and sausage gravy, bacon

Until lunch anyway.  Since I worked I didn't have time to make soup.  Maybe this evening.  Definitely enjoyed the breakfast feast though.

Dinner:  Thin crust home pizza w sausage and roasted red pepper, 12 oz All Day IPA, 12 oz Miller Lite

A very sausag-y day.  Kinda forgot about the pizza plan when I pulled the biscuits and gravy out of the freezer.  Oops.  Not unhappy though.  Turned out deeeelicious.

Exercise:  Nope.  No alarm this morning, woke up at 6:15 so not too bad.  I think temps are going to be more normal this week, if we don't get any precip that turns everything to ice maybe this will be the week to get out there again.  Definitely feeling the loss of conditioning.

44.2

More Beer More Water

Friday, February 25, 2022

Glad it's Friday.  Also glad, kinda, to have the return of getting rid of water even if that means getting up in the middle of the night.  For now I'm okay with that.  Still working on last week.

Breakfast:  Coffee

Yup.

Lunch:  Soup and toast, cottage cheese

Standard.  All good.

Dinner:  Spicy beans w cheddar jack, air fried Aldi red bag chicken filets, 24 oz Miller Lite

Overcooked the chicken.  Two filets left in the bag.  And have I mentioned that this batch of beans is just exquisite?  3 jars left in the freezer, I'll be sad when they're gone.

Exercise:  Nope.  I may have been awake briefly at 4:45 but I was definitely not awake.  Need to go to bed earlier, been up too late reading Ukraine news.
