When you say you "like to eat normal" with your boyfriend, does that mean that you eat carbage when he's around? If so, it sounds as though you are planning to go back to eating carbs when you get to your goal.

I think that you will be unpleasantly surprised if you do that. You could regain if you don't keep on with Maintenance levels of some LC plan. Isn't the carbage why you gained in the first place? Low Carbing is a way of eating forever, not just a quick way to lose some weight.

Somehow, it never works as well the second time you try.
