Dingo lost a front tooth yesterday. He looks adorable and hisses a little on his "s" sounds. I love it!

I weighed for the first time in a few days and I'm down just a little again. It looks like it's settling down to maybe a pound lost every couple of weeks. Better than gaining anyway, and I'm really enjoying my clothes being looser, even if it's a very slow process. If I kept going at this rate I'd be at my goal weight in a year. I'm still just trying to be very sensible about carbs without restricting them to the point where I feel horribly deprived and I'm trying to get exercise where I can, including going to the gym, but I'm not going overboard on any of it. That seems to be working so far.

I got called into my boss' office today, which made me nervous, but it turned out it was just to discuss my raise. I hadn't expected to get a raise this year since I haven't been here a whole year, but I'm getting one anyway, which is cool. It's not a huge raise, but it's nice that they like me well enough to consider giving me one at all, after only 7 months of working here. Have I mentioned that I love my job? I love my job.

I so know the super low-carb works, but I also can't do it for more than a few months and I've had to find something that will work for longer than that. Having fallen off the low-carb wagon several times after periods of success, I've figured out that I just don't have the will power to stick to it so strictly, so like today, I had tacos for lunch, but no rice and chips and stuff. For dinner I had bacon and eggs, but also a piece of homemade whole grain bread. And if I mess up and eat a piece of candy or a few fries I just go on and try to do better at the next meal. And I've completely and utterly cut out sugary drinks, which is probably the biggest thing that's helping.

I sure miss the fast results of the low-carb though!
