199.8 - 74.8 pounds to go!

This happened...FINALLY!

I could not be more thankful that this plateau is over. I will miss the extra 400 daily calories, but not as much as I miss seeing the scale show me lower numbers every week!

The week was pretty uneventful. I saw the nutritionist on Friday, the day that picture was taken. It was the first time I had ever seen that number and was completely taken aback. At our meeting, I explained to her that I had increased my calories to 2,000 per day to break the plateau, and I swear she looked at me like I started talking a foreign language. I pointed out that I started out January at 203, and then I ended it at 202, so clearly something was wrong. In my opinion, after 45 pounds lost, it was due. From the look she gave me, she doesn't believe in plateaus.

So aside from the look of crazy, we discussed working on smaller dinner portions. I usually had 600 or so left for dinner, and get kind of panicked at anything less than that, but she apparently wants me to eat around 400. I'm not making any promises, but it's worth a shot I guess.
