Mainly my plateau continues.

I can be upset about that, or I can compare myself now and about a year ago. I choose to spotlight the good things, of which there are many –

I weigh 43 pounds less
There are 48.2 inches less of me
I feel healthier and my doctor is pleased at the positive changes in my numbers on each visit
I have shed 3 sizes in jeans and top sizes
I have almost entirely eliminated added salt
I have eliminated all sugar
I ate my first baked potato in over a year when we had a guest to dinner last night
We almost never eat rice anymore
We eat lots more veggies.
I am exercising more (unless life gets in the way)
I am trying new recipes that my husband loves from the Simply Keto Book by Suzanne Ryan.
