Milestone! A veritable milestone!

I had a bit of a whoosh over the weekend and lost 4lbs while I was
away, which is a surprise. That was good in itself, but it means that
as of this morning I've lost a total of three stone -- 42lbs for those
across the pond. I'm so thrilled I can't tell you.

More importantly, I saw my doctor today. He mentioned what my
starting blood pressure was - 144/85. It's now 129/75. And my
resting pulse was 88 - it's now 64, which is not at all bad
considering I still classify as obese (I'm 5'7"). He's really pleased
with my progress, as you can imagine, and I do feel that I'm serving
to spread the word of low carb to the local medicos as well, and that
can't be bad.
