Another Plateau

I hit another plateau *right* at 250, which was frustrating because I was actually really excited to break it. Milestones are fun and encouraging and I don't mind embracing them even if they are a little arbitrary. However, as you can see from the updated graph. I seemed stuck for a number of days before it finally dropped today down to 248 and some change. I am excited to be past 250, but I had a bad carb day today (wedding with a few too many allowances for beer, cake, etc), and I'm afraid I'm going to be back up over it when the dust settles. Still, it's all about the long-term progress, so a slip up here and there isn't a big deal as long as things keep going down overall.

I spoke with my sister-in-law at the wedding about it some today, who said she could tell I lost weight. She lost a bunch of weight a while back too and she said she did it using low carb too (actually using Atkins, but I'm not a big fan of Atkins). Still, it's always good to hear other success stories to help convince myself that I'm not crazy for doing this.

I'm closing in on a total of 20 pounds lost over the last month and a half, nearly two thirds of my goal done already. It's possible I may be hitting my goal of 30 pounds in just the first couple months. Then when am I going to call this blog??
