    Success!

    I posted not long ago about my weight loss stall. I checked and rechecked EVERYthing I'd been eating. Then I decided maybe because I don't have a lot left to lose maybe I wasn't eating ENOUGH carbs. So I went from 20 to 25 and moved to rung 1. Still nada weight loss. This week I decided to add rung 2 & 3 along with 5more carbs (total 30). My other thought was that I'm not getting enough variety. And since I had been following the old book the first week which allowed both nutz and all cheeses, I knew I could still lose weight with them.

    And tada! Today I weighed and I'm down to 138! *iz estatic* I haven't broke the 40s in two years! Yay for Atkins!
