234.2 today and the weight keeps coming off. Just over one month ago at the start of my fast, I was exactly 30lb higher. So, nice way to help me out of my funk, especially on my last day of work before my layoff. After work I'll go for a walk and put on some tunes. my neck ache indeed was from my brief time under the truck the night before. I felt the exact spot when I got back under to finish off yesterday. my project turned out well...nice little win I really needed.

Otherwise, breaking 230 is my next weight goal. That will put me solidly over 50lb lost since February. I have my food diary filled for the next week including 2 new recipes..a keto creamy seafood salad and the treasure of a meal I stumbled into yesterday just playing with flavours, leftover chicken & too much celery. I call it keto coconut sesame chicken & celery & its on my top 5 keto recipes!

One of the things I fear after losing my job is less money to eat as needed. There is no doubt my keto journey has cost more money than I want to think about. I had to buy a lot of cooking hardware & appliances I didn't have. And spices, meat etc I wasn't buying before. But by my plan, I at least mitigated some expense buying everything I needed while I still had income. I was hoping it wouldn't come but...I saw it coming in February with word of the virus in Asia. I also saw the meat shortage coming & filled my little fridge freezer up 3 weeks ago. Oh, you say what meat shortage? Even if you are not seeing empty meat shelves, the price on much of it has gone up. A lot. Our wholesale meat price at work went up by 25% overnight 1 week ago. When I was at Home Depot yesterday, the one appliance they cannot keep in stock at all? Freezers.

I am very much looking forward to my meal tomorrow. Its not a cheat, but still a treat! My keto cheesecake & strawberry puree' and bacon strips on the side (for the macro balance). When I was visiting a little lakeside resort city this week & saw all these beautiful homemade sundaes people were eating, I decided to pull a big slice of cheesecake out of the freezer. I'm not craving a sundae persay, more a longing? But I am looking forward to a different food day.

Well, last day of this job, first day of the rest of my life?

Happy Friday!!!
