I woke up. Not from sleeping… (Day 1: 333lbs)

0 Comments

…but woke the fuck up. I feel like I’ve been going downhill for a really long time. Today I stepped on the scale and proved it. Holy shit. 333 Lbs. I’ve always been a big guy, but this stopped me dead in my tracks. How can this be me? I’ve been over 200 lbs since […]


Final day of keto, for now. (Day 59: 307.2)

0 Comments

Whelp, I made it. Today is the last day of my keto diet. Tomorrow is day 60 and my final weigh-in for this round. I’m up 2 lbs from yesterday. Which is insane cause I know I was under 2k calories. I can’t really explain it. Hopefully I can recover by tomorrow and get a […]


I quit. Well, almost. (Day 56: 305.6)

0 Comments

I’m gettin near the end of this whole 60 days and I’m kinda over it. I’m feeling like it’s time to move on. I’m trying to think about what March and beyond looks like. What the diet is going to be. What my lifestyle is going to look like etc. I’ve pretty much seen what […]


Holy crap I’m hungry (Day 54: 305.6)

0 Comments

I don’t understand what’s going on. I’m pretty much hungry non-stop right now. Maybe my body is starting to get pissed off I’m losing weight. I donno. The last few days I’ve been feeling hungry all the time, regardless of how much I have eaten and regardless of how recently. I had a pretty good […]


I feel like I’m stuck (Day 47: 306.4)

0 Comments

For the last several days my weight in the morning has been bounding between 306 and 307 lbs. Progress when I’ve been following the diet has been pretty consistent up until now. I’m wondering if that initial keto boost is finally over. I spreadsheet’d my current diet and it sits right around 2000 to 2500 […]


Unknown Health Problems (Day 40: 308.6)

0 Comments

When I went to the emergency room a few weeks ago, I had a CT scan done to determine the size and location of the kidney stones. I was back in the doctor’s office this morning having the foot-long stint pulled out of my pee hole. It was… unpleasant. I found the report from that […]


The shortest distance between two points is NEVER a straight line (Day 36: 309 lbs)

0 Comments

There’s no such thing as perfectly linear progress, folks. It just doesn’t happen. Whether they be external or self-inflicted, issues come up. They always do. I’ve tried this Keto diet before. Each time I’d make it a week or two and something would happen. Some set of circumstances that make it easy to justify giving […]


20 Lbs lost in one month! (Day 31: 312.9)

0 Comments

Ya know, I really never thought I would get here. I’ve tried the keto diet before and given up after a week or two every time. But despite the drinking and the stones and the ER and random other setbacks, I’m still going. Here’s my 1-month recap. Important to note: The changes I made this […]


Getting out of bed just got easier (Day 29: 319)

0 Comments

Getting out of bed was easier today. And I don’t mean waking up feeling bright eyed and bushy tailed. I’m still tired as shit and didn’t want to wake up. But physically getting out of bed today was somehow… easier. My mattress is on the floor. So getting out of bed for a 330 lb […]


Recovery (Day 27: 323.0)

0 Comments

Hitting the reset button Overall this month I’ve actually stuck to the diet pretty well. I dropped down below 320 before I started boozin’ and then sufferin’, and then eatin’ to survive. Cooking was impractical as I tried to avoid standing and doing work as much as I could. And after surviving surgery, my friend […]


ER and Surgery

0 Comments

I finally gave up. I realized there is no nobility in suffering. Last night around 11 pm, I realized I couldn’t do it anymore. I drove myself to the ER to find out what the heck is going on with me. I had kidney stone pain near my bladder. But the pain would also move […]
