Congratulations!  I would be really excited to drop below 200.  That's a huge milestone!  

Here's hoping it happens this week for you!

Still stuck on 275.  But I'm doing pretty good on my eating, so again, just trusting the program to work for me...  I tend to do this - get stuck for a couple of weeks, then drop a bunch the next week.  Hope that keeps up! 

One cool thing...  Our gym uses equipment that is hooked into the "FitPoints" system.  They keep track of how many "FitPoints" you earn by doing cardio on the treadmill or ellipticals or bikes, along with the points you earn for lifting weights.  Then, at the end of the week, they publish a list of the 25 highest point totals for the week.  Last week, I came in at #4 overall.  That's my highest by far.  (I'm usually down around #10-12.) 

One of the security guards stopped by my office at work yesterday.  He told me that he and another guard (who's been working at the other building for a while) had a big argument about me.  Seems the other guard kept insisting that I was someone else, because he knew me, and that just wasn't me!  LOL  He had to actually see my badge and confirm who I was before he would believe the other guy.  Thought that was pretty funny.

Spent the weekend with my daughter and granddaughter.  The wife and I got to baby-sit one night while they went out on the town.  She's such a cutie!  Then on Saturday, we got to watch her eat her first "solid" food (pureed sweet potatos).  She liked them, and didn't really make those funny faces that I remember our kids making.  But she did wind up with orange "goop" all over everything.  Good thing daughter took wife's advice, and had her wearing only a diaper for the "feeding."  (Or should I say - smearing!)  It was pretty funny.

Awesome Post.  Reminded me of my youngest who absolutely loved all of the orange baby food (carrots, sweet potatoes, etc...).  So much so that her skin actually had a slight orange tone to it.  Funny to look back at her baby pics and see our little orange baby!!  Sometimes with extra orange goop on her face like you describe above.  Man, those days were awesome and cherished!!

Stay strong and you will bust out of that 275 slump before you know it!!
