Finally had some downward movement on the scale, followed immediately by a bounce back up of a pound...of course! ;)
Not that big of a deal in the long run of course. I read a post here on FS about doing a moving average of your weight. So I set up a graph in Excel to do just that. It confirmed that yes I have been in a plateau, and it evened out those ups and downs. This in turn evens out my doubts and worries about whether or not this is "working". Of course it is working. I weigh less today than I did six months ago. I weigh less today than I did last week or a year ago. That is the right direction.
It does seem that I need to stay at 20g/day or less of carbs. Pretty rigid, but more satisfying than not losing at all.

EDIT: Just took another look at the moving average graph. No "up's"! It is all moving flat or down. Yay for moving average!
