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 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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
Kidney stoned, that is. Yup, I think it’s official, I think I have another round of kidney stones. And I think it’s big. I had a problem that I thought might be a stone for about 4 days back in October. The pain went away after 4 days and I never passed anything. I think […]
The worst thing that could have happened as a result of this keto diet is that I discovered that I can drink and remain in ketosis if I don’t have have a sugary chaser. The last two nights, Friday and Saturday, I had a bottle of rum each night. I didn’t feel much of a […]
They say when you get a new diet, you get new poo. I’ve heard people complain of diarrhea on keto or carnivore. When you change your food you mess with your gut and things go south. However, I’ve been living such a deeply unhealthy life that I already had major problems with the ol’ number […]
The short answer is, I enjoy it. But that’s not a real answer. I already went over how much and how often I drink here. That post was about quantity, this post is to attempt to dive into why. I’m bored. Man, COVID lockdown did a number on me. I’m an introvert but the pandemic […]
My random brand keto piss strips arrived from Amazon today. I opened up the jar and let ‘er rip. The strip instantly turned purple! Beautiful, deep, glistening, plum colored keetoney goodness! I love that there is such a simple way to make sure I’m doing the right things. Screw up, and them little strips won’t […]
Guys. Seriously. They weren’t kidding when they said you pee more when you start keto. Between the keto coffee i’m drinking in the morning, and the new diet, I’m peeing all the time. On the upside, I started this diet on a Sunday and today is Tuesday. I started at 333 lbs and this morning […]
