caustiously optimistic

It looks like I'm dropping anywhere from .4 lbs. to 1 lb. a day so far. Yesterday I was 175.4 and today I am 174.6. I weighed last night and I was 175.0 after being 175.4 in the am. OK, that NEVER happens to me-weighing *less* at night after eating all day. It definitely seems like something miraculous is going on here:) I didn't exercise again yesterday. I only had a small amount of time and had to pick between art and exercise...so naturally, I chose art. I sure hope this weight loss continues. Only time will tell if I've finally found the answer. I'm cautiously optimistic. It certainly seems that something different is happening. I feel like I'm doing better than when I ate every other day (alternate day fasting). High metabolism may explain why my husband eats the most fattening stuff he can get his hands on and never gains. I think our bodies need fat too. Not the trans/hydrogenated crap that is in packaged junk food and fast food, but good healthy fats like coconut oil. I did try to eat fats before following Sally Fallon type eating for awhile because it totally made sense. I didn't really lose weight, but now I think the missing link was the thyroid boosting coconut oil and thyroid supplement. Still not sure which one is doing the most or if it's both of them working together. All I know is that I have high hopes of being able to eat like a normal person and not gain 10 extra lbs. every decade.
