YES YES YES!!!! After those past 2 weeks of bad weigh in's, something kicked in this week. I managed to loose 5 pounds. I'm jumping for joy. Checked the scale 4 times to make sure it wasn't lying to me. I even had fast food this week. I ate at McDonald's for breakfast twice due to getting up late. But it consisted of scrambled eggs and sausage and looking online, it's not that bad nutritionally. I also had a BK hamburger but I put my own reduced sugar ketchup and reduced fat cheese on it. I had a side salad with it and was happy when halfway through the burger, I could feel myself getting full. It used to take a Whopper and medium fries to do that. All this was was a plain ole small burger. Another whoo hoo there! I think more water and watching carb intake made the difference. I naturally drink a lot of water, but I've been guzzling it lately. I'm now only 2 pounds away from 40 lost. Another Whoo hooo!!!!

205.5 lb Lost so far: 44.5 lb.    Still to go: 45.5 lb.    Diet followed reasonably well.
