That about sums it up. I feel great the only problem is Im kinda addicted to white rice... Again... I used to eat 2 cups at a shot now I eat 1/4 cup about 3 times a week I still lose the pound but I am trying to cut it out or atleast down to once a week. My pant size was a snug 50 real snug and I just went out and got 3 pairs of 40s!! My wife and I have been going places every weekend to walk around like the farm show, a home show last weekend. We took my inlaws last weekend and when we got off the train I jogged to the car on the other side of the lot to get  it for them.  I walk outside, use the eliptical and have been shadow boxing and weight lifting.  Its weird as i am in no way good looking but Ive been hit on (BTW if the wife reads this I am happily married) by more females in the last 3 weeks than the last 3 years!

Wow! Ninety eight pounds in such a short period of time! You are doing really great! 

And as a carb addict, let me encourage you to lay off the rice or to limit yourself to eating it once a month only. Rice has SO many carbs! I love rice and when I make it I like it drenched in butter, but I will eat only a small amount and then either freeze or throw the rest away because it's such a temptation. Give yourself the chance to break your rice addiction. It can be done. I find that when I eat a lot of carbs I want more carbs, but when I eat protein I want protein. I really do try to focus on the protein and limit the carbs. Do this for you so that you reach your goal or a normal BMI. Who knows, maybe after you reach your goal you will have to eat more carbs to maintain your weight.

Blessings,
Maddie

On the topic of rice,  I have a low carb alternative that is quite good.  You will have to try it before you have an opinion.  But, take raw, clean cauliflower and grate it in the food processor.  Then, steam until soft, add salt, pepper, and some butter.  It is pretty darn good!
