Activity

I loved the transparency and deep reflection Carmel and Mel. We are human and we live in a society obsessed with food and much of it unhealthy. Quantities are huge and the processed food is made to be addictive.

5 bite teaches us that we can recommit to smaller portions and reestablishes a healthy relationship with food.

Hey Carmel!  How was your day today?  I hope it was super fantastical!  Did you opt for bars or regular food bites?  We have places to go tomorrow, so I’m going to try 5 bites from a think! bar for lunch.  Did you get the keys to your house?

Thank you Dr. Lewis and Carmel!  I’m definitely sticking to the stricter plan.  I didn’t miss the optional two bites and I believe any hunger or cravings was better kept at bay this way, and also with the smallish bites vs. the regular to large bites.  Let’s get this over with!  Lol.  I’m anxious to get out my skinny clothes from my first 5BD su…[Read more]

Okay, thank you!  I’ll try that and see if I can correct it.

Hip Hip Hooray!!!  So proud of you!  You inspired me and I moved off bars yesterday to real food…5 perfect bites too!  We are doing it!

Fantastic!!

Brilliant!!

I truly do love that quote, Carmel: “We don’t have to do this, we GET to do this.”  This is SO TRUE!

Hi Mel.

You can change it.  Go to the weight tracker page and change Week 1 and Week 2 (In the “Add Your Current Weight” label) to reflect the correct weights after those weeks.  Change Week 3 to the same weight as Week 2, and after the 3rd week then you can change it again to the correct weight at that time.  OK?

Haha.  Yes, “Carmel Style” is working very well for me today.  It’s getting closer to dinner time, and I haven’t missed the optional two bites.  And I re-evaluated my bite size, and am now taking bites as if I were at a fancy dinner party.  I had some great energy from this diet today, and a wonderful sense of well-being.  I’m getting things…[Read more]

I LOVE the way you said all of that.  What a positive mindset!  No frustrations with this diet, as their are with others.  I don’t feel like a failure over and over again trying to find the right road to weight loss as I do with other diets.  This is the one that works!  And it’s so affordable, you’re making money back on all of the groceries…[Read more]

Congrats Mel!!!  As my grandmother used to say, “That’s nothing to sneeze at!”  Which I think was the 1940’s way of saying “it’s worth noting!” Great work!  You are inspiring!

“Carmel style”…you made me laugh.  I feel  like the least of examples (but my enthusiasm DOES run high!)

Patient endurance wins the race.

Mel, my best to you going forward this week with 5 bites.  I know you will crush it!

Healthy RN, my best to you too starting a fresh on so many levels at once.  You sound like a very strong person. I know you will get your rhythm soon, and have the joy of controlling your health through weight loss.

We are really doing something truly amazing f…[Read more]

Good morning Good Morning Everyone!  How is everything going for you today?  Any new resolves or changes to how you do things to get rid of the weight quickly?  Is anyone able to take out a little time for themselves to relax?  I’m curious to know how others are implementing their 5BD and what is working for them.
