Happy to have you with us Day Star,

If I were you I would throw a party between you and your wife for starting such a wonderful diet together. LC party of course...LOL....
I would love my DH to do this with me but alas, I do this alone, but not completely alone, cause I have my forum buds.
After you lose weight, remember this is a life time commitment. There are people who get thin and then go back to high carb foods, thinking they will stay thin. It does not work that way.
From your stats it looks like you are doing fine. Better then I did at the begining. It all takes time, so just enjoy the food and you will feel lots better in time.
Jehovah God is good to us.
