I'm still here!

As happens, my weight loss has slowed and so has my enthusiasm.  Don't get me wrong, I'm not falling off the wagon or anything.  I've just been less obsessive about blogging and researching etc., which is probably a good thing, especially for the people around me.  I'm hovering just above 200 (201.2 this morning - been kinda yo-yoing between 201 and 203 for about a week), which is right about where I expected to hit a speedbump because it is close to my previous long-term peak weight.  It's my body saying "this is so much better than where you were two months ago. Let's just rest here a minute. We're not eighteen anymore, after all."  And I'm fine with that.  I've lost almost ten percent of my body weight and that's nothing to sneeze at.  I don't worry that I might fall asleep in meetings, and I don't panic if I might not be near food or a bathroom for a while anymore.  Hell, I might even take up hiking again!    

Update:  I weighed myself when I went home for lunch (after a couple of good bathroom trips) and I have officially broken through the 200lb wall!
