 Re: 8.5 gone...or has it??? | |
6.5 lbs out of 40 means more than 16%. That's a really awesome percentage! 
Going back to your menu... I think it looks great as long as you make sure you eat enough (not sure how many calories are in there).
Since you don't have a lot to lose, your weight loss might accelerate again when you move to OWL and introduce more veggies. And don't forget that your body needs time to adjust, so be patient. You did great until now! 
Happy low carbing!

I believe that the best way to overcome temptation is not with willpower, which is so often in short supply, but with our brain power, a potentially unlimited resource.
Imagine that you're doing great, losing weight, feeling better than ever, thrilled with yourself, hearing compliments from friends and acquaintances---and then it happens! Despite all your good intentions, you're mightily tempted by a food you're not supposed to have. What to do? I'll tell you this: You'd better have a strategy ready!"
