To my joy and surprise, I was down a pound this morning (167.5) when I weighed in.  I wrote last week about how I had plateaued... and it looks like there was some good news in store!

I am continuing my dieting and portion control, and because of my schedule in recent weeks, alcohol has been all but cut out of my diet.

Also, I've sort-of picked up a little bit of the Atkins Diet.  I (by choice) will not give up carbs completely, but I have limited the amount I take in.  It might make me a bad Italian, but I don't even have pasta once a week! (Don't tell Grandpa!)

I hope to see more progress by implementing just a little of Atkins and sticking with my health portion control.  Here's to more loss on the way!
