Unifying Contradiction

Well, I've put it off as long as I can, but at some point it had to happen: starting today I'm back on a 20-carb per day diet until I can drop below 250 lbs. I've been stuck at around 260 for over a year now, and I figure once I'm below 250 I should be off this plateau and able to increase my carb intake again. Right now, of course, I'm around 265 due to the indulgences of the holiday season, so it can take anywhere from 2 to 4 weeks to lose that much.

So, for the next, month, lets say, can folks avoid inviting me to major dinner parties laden with Italian pasta, etc? Thanks!
