I've shed five pounds since starting my not-really-Atkins-at-all diet about a week ago. (Weighing myself every day after morning shower.) It's really just a matter of watching what I eat, and I really didn't at all, before this; I'd often snack for lack of anything better to do (or, conversely, as an aid to procrastination). Cutting this behavior out may be the thing that tips the scales, if you will, ho ho. And I still eat bread and sugars, you bet -- it's just that I pay attention to it now, and sometimes think better of it. (And I did gain a pound back after an all-bread day.)
I don't really have a goal weight... I'll try to keep up this attitude for another month and see where I am. I'm certainly not making myself suffer at all, so it shouldn't be too hard.
I like Movable Type. Movable Type good. I predict that the jmac.org weblog will become an MT system RSN. (I will be the only writer, though.) Looking forward to figuring out how to use Mason and MT together, even though MT uses Template Toolkit by default... it doesn't look all that hard, if MT's Perl API is really as rich as it seems.
