Thank you Mel. You are very kind.  I will take your advise.

Carmel, I wanted to mention that I am sorry that you had to deal with a family emergency.  I hope everything will be okay.  Remember to take care of yourself first so you are able to take care of others, like they instruct you to do on an airplane.  Oxygen mask goes on you first, So you are able to take care of the child next to you. :h…[Read more]

With the real food, I was using teaspoons to measure it, and the weight loss was soooo slow last week.  But I’ve already nearly lost the same amount on bars in two days as I lost with real food.  It doesn’t make sense, but I will take the quickest route.  Bars this week, but if that slow down I will do strictly Snicker bars.  I will take your fi…[Read more]

I’ve done real food.  I’ve done protein bars.  I’ve done Snickers. I lose best with Snickers.  My theory is that the real food is harder to eat precise amounts while losing, so maybe i get in more than I realize.  The protein bars don’t digest well and bulk up my system and stay heavy inside of me.  The Snickers burn clean and quick.  Not sure…[Read more]

That’s great Carmel!  I’m happy that your husband tried the diet too.  And this diet isn’t meant to be long term, so I’m all in.  Feeling better quickly while looking well is the goal!  And we’re doing it.

Thank you!  Thank you!  The bars seemed to speed up the weight loss the past couple of days. 1.6 pounds in les than 48 hours.  This may be a very successful week. 

Sports isn’t always fair.  Maybe they should have women on the teams as well.  They would make SURE it was fair.  

There are many fun aspects of this diet.  Having a diet that works and gives quick results is VERY fun.  I’ve begun losing quicker on the bars, so I hope this is my ticket to zooming even more quickly through those dr…[Read more]

 thanks.  I wish the Dodgers didn’t have to win such a closely contested series by a missed call, but that’s they way of sports.

As far are you, you are doing GREAT!  I love it.  Is this getting fun yet?

Thanks for the mention, Carmel!  Yes–leave them hanging.  Peak their curiosity.  If they themselves TRULY want to better their lives, they will investigate this diet and eventually jump on board.

Gayle, you are still an inspiration! Love your determination and diligence.  Fasting feels so good when it ends! It leaves such a sense of control and accomplishment.

Mel, I see you in my rearview mirror!  Your weight loss is catching up to mine and I’m soooo happy for you!!!  Go, go, my friend!

Hello again, I’ve been away for a bit.  I had a family emergency that took the wind out of my sails. Although  situation is not resolved,  I’m refocused  and ready to keep on keeping on.  Loved catching up on all the posts.  You are all so encouraging! Lets go!

Mel…20 lbs!  Look how fast this is happening!  It all adds up.  And YES, to weigh LESS than you husband is a HUGE deal! Congrats!

I noticed if I drink anything with artificial sweetener my tummy rumbles more.  I thought that was interesting.

I’m glad I didn’t make any bets on the Dodgers losing!  Congrats to your team, Dr. Lewis!

Thanks for those kind words, Mel.

You’re right Mel!! It’s so much more pleasant and effective when we have a community cheering us on. That’s why I keep on coming back. It’s so easy to get complacent and Dr Lewis reminds me that we deserve to be “exceptional!”

You are so on your way Mel!!!
