I started LC on June 4th at 271lbs. Yesterday was one month, I have more energy than I have had in, it seems like, years. My wife started eating LC when we went out to dinner and she saw me eat a salad and a big 'ol steak with butter all over it. She said "Are you off your diet since we went to dinner?" I said "This is my diet!!!!" She's converted. I think she has lost like 5 pounds, she really doesn't need to lose weight, but she feels that she can never be too thin.

Anyway...one month and i am down to 245. 26 Pounds!!!!!

My loss has slowed from just over a pound a day to about .8 pounds per day. I would be happy with 2 or 3 a week. I am soo pleased.

I have found that the more water I drink the more weight I lose. I drink 2 litres at work, and probably about that at home, plus coffee and soda.

Thanks to all of you for all of your support, and to the 3 or 4 of you who have helped me find answers to questions. I hope I can help some of you someday.

50 pounds to go to reach my goal...Long road still ahead, stay with me.
