Week 16 Weigh In

Another great week on Atkins and another loss. I am down another 2 pounds this week so that makes a total of 36 pounds. I set a goal of 100 pounds my first year and in order to do that I need to be down 50 pounds by December 1st, which is my half-way mark. At my current rate I might get there a month early, which is something. I have lost 17 pounds the last 5 weeks which is remarkable considering I had my cheat vacation and a cheat day last Friday. Today is a big day for my career so starting it off with a 2 pound loss is just topping on the cake. Today is also a testament to not stepping on the scale constantly throughout the week. I know people who weigh daily or even a few times a day. It is so impossible to know what is really going on when you ride the ups and downs of daily scale watching. I don't throw my daily meals on here any more. I only planned on doing that the first six weeks or so to show what i am eating and my numbers, but yesterday I had bacon, hamburgers, 4 slices of pizza and ice cream with caramel sauce and yet today I am down 2 pounds. How awesome is that? Of course all those were the low carb versions, the hamburger was with no bun, the pizza was with an almond crust and the ice cream was low carb with no carb, sugar free caramel sauce, but they all tasted delicious and I went to bed very full and with a smile on my face.
