Brian and I have been on a diet since before Christmas. We talked to some friends who were very successful on this diet and decided to buy the how-to book. Brian read the whole thing in one day and decided to go to the store so we could begin the diet the next day. And we've been on it since then.
There was a lot of hype about low-carb, high-protein diets a few years ago. I guess they have been around awhile. And I'm not really sure how it will be when we come off of the diet once we reach our target of being about the same size we were when we married. But we know (according to the book) that coming off the diet is the most critical part of the whole thing. Forewarned is forearmed, right?
Did I mention we have lost more than twenty pounds each?
Meanwhile, Abby now has two bottom teeth and acts like she is getting a few more. When I say "acts like" I mean grabbing and putting in her moth anything that comes into her reach, drooling and waking up several times at night to nurse. Andrew and James both had teeth by around four months so I guess we are on schedule.
Now Abby is on my lap and it takes much longer to type with one hand so, although I was planning to post about making a gingerbread house with the boys and a few Christmas photos I must go see to le infant.

Congratulations on your baby girl! I visited your blog recently and was happy to see your news. Can't believe she has teeth already!
My husband and I always had success on the Atkins diet, the times we really stuck to it. I need to do something drastic again but the thought of all that protein makes me a little sick...:(
Congratulations Amy!! That is so awesome. Losing weight is tough and that is a wonderful accomplishment. I love visiting your blog to read about and see pictures of your sweet family...Abby is beautiful :)
