Fifteen weeks ago I started on this journey. And now almost 4 months into it I can see the end of the road. On my home scale I have 13 more pounds to go to be at the goal I picked back in February. The office scale is 3 pounds heavier than mine at home, but since maintenance will be gauged by the home scale, that's what I'm using to decide when I'm done losing.
Its been an incredible journey and one that I'm glad I took. I'm definitely ready to move to the next phase mentally! But I'm so excited by the opportunities - I've already got a few cooking classes lined up so I can learn more about cooking low carb. I found a website that will compute nutritional information for recipes so I'll be able to compare different versions of the same recipe and check the carb count.
I know I know , I don't want to get too far ahead either though. With an average weight loss of around 3 pounds I still have a month to go, but I think that month might just go by rather quickly. And then Phase 2 for 2 weeks and then Phase 3 for 2 weeks then free range maintenance just in time for our honeymoon in Italy (I think I might be back on Phase 1 as soon as I get back to the States :))
I'll make sure I post before and after pics. I've got professional grade "befores" from the wedding so I might have to cajole one of my photographer friends to take some afters for me.
