Hi Laurie - I'm so happy that you have such a wonderful and supportive husband and great kids. It sure makes all the difference with this WOE.

I remember the *trip up the scale* too. 150 was pivotal for me too. After I hit that, I didn't want to get on the scales any more. Once I hit the 180's I realized I was going for 200 and I felt so awful - my bone structure just couldn't carry the weight.

Hang in there, you will do fantastic on low carb and like so very many of us, you will never look back
