A New Plan

Photos from Halloween, while inspiring compared to old pics, were the motivation I needed to kick start the next phase of my weight loss plan. I became instantly impatient to lose the next 20 pounds (I suspect I need to lose 30). How to do it? his caused me to think of something Chris had said a while back, about when he went on a fiercely low-carb diet for 3 weeks and lost 20 pounds. And I got to thinking, "20 pounds! I could make it 3 weeks, a month." So it officially began yesterday, although I was pretty good on Monday, and today I am officially miserable. I have foregone donuts on two occasions, and basically avoided anything like bread, crackers, potatoes, most fruits and vegetables...it's rough to be me. Chris says this will pass after the first week, and I figure that if it works it will definitely be worth it, so I have to stick it out for at least a week to see if it is working. But I really, really, REALLY want some carbs!
