The scale this morning read another magic number, 168.  I did a happy dance and then called Danny to come in and verify that I was not dreaming.  It is tremendous, I have lost 25 lbs!  I see that what I did is not that common compared to the other blogs and journals that I have seen. 

 I really think that diet smart was the right way to go, it was much easier than I thought.  things have been very busy so I have to keep moving and I don't have time to really write anymore, I will write a few postings this week on what I am eating now, but I am looking forward to 165!
