It’s been forever since I’ve roasted coffee…looking forward to this. :)

…and now Bitcoin is in $10k territory. $10,065.03 as I write this.

Just finished a 4-day weekend that included the pig-out that was Thanksgiving…was prepared for a bit of backsliding, but I still ended up down 1 lb. for the week, to 255. An even 30 lbs. since the beginning.

Shenanigans on trail

Loaded 40 rounds of .30-06 and 50 of .44 Magnum…dunno what happened to the .44 ammo box. Guess I’ll venture out to pick up another. While it is still Black Friday, Sportsman’s Warehouse isn’t likely to be as much of a shitshow as (for instance) Best Buy.

Been a while since I’ve made meatloaf. This one’s a mix of pork and beef, seasoned with onion and fajita spices. Instead of the usual breadcrumbs or oats, it’s bound with a couple tablespoons of psyllium husk powder and a couple of eggs. For a first shot at keto meatloaf, it turned out well…held together better than some I’ve done in the past. Might add some Frank’s Red Hot next time, as I used to do all the time. (Meatloaf was one of the few things Tabi liked spicy.)

Veggies were roasted with garlic, Parmesan, and olive oil.

Back on track…scale said 256 this morning. That’s 5 lbs. this past week, 29 since I started.

One more thing I noticed: One of the things a Fitbit will do is track your sleep. Back when I got mine, it said I was only getting maybe an hour or two of decent sleep per night, if I got any at all. A couple of days ago, I was poking around in the app and it said I managed something closer to 6 hours the previous night. Looking at the history, the improvement appears to have started around 3-4 weeks ago…right around the time I got started on this weight-loss kick.

This was good eats…too bad it’s chock full of carbs.

It’s starting to take shape. :)
