Hi! I’m hanging in there, slipped up a little bit with some extra bites but I’m back on track. Unfortunately the chat time is right in the middle of when we do our family dinner/ my toddler’s end of the night routine. I’ll try to make one of the next ones!

BK–It’s Monday and the beginning of a new week.  How are you doing?  Can you make the chat tonight?

Fine.  The latte’s shouldn’t affect your hungerstat, but they are riddled with carbon!  So, try to avoid them as much as possible.  Maybe one once in a while is OK as long as everything else is perfect.  But yes!  Try and power through the weekend!  I am so looking forward to your first week’s progress!

Been pretty busy this week! Stayed on track so far with my bites but I did have two iced flavored lattes. I know it’s extra carbon but I’m hoping it doesn’t effect setting my hunger stat. Going to try and stay extra focused to make it through the weekend!

Brilliant.  So you’ve completed 5 days, no?  How well have you been able to adhere to the diet.  I’d love to hear some of your trying times: what foods you were tempted to eat, why, and what you did to avert eating them.   Or, did you give in and have some extra bites?  (After all, unlearning years of habits isn’t done overnight.)  And how d…[Read more]

The past two days have gone well. Looking forward to weighing in tomorrow! Hunger is there but not unmanageable.

Great job.  Now that one day is behind you, it’s a lot easier to tackle the second.  Even though it’s only been 1 day, you’ve already come SO FAR!  Don’t give up!  Keep today as perfect as yesterday, and you’ll find that tomorrow gets a lot easier.  Then you are on your way …

Today went great, two snickers bars and lots of plain hot tea. I had some black coffee in the morning too. I’m more worried about the next two days more than the first! But I’m definitely happy with making it through  

Yes! 100% is clearly the way to go! Making small exceptions has never helped me before. Excited to tackle each day like a true battle.

I love that.  Right.  Today is the first day of the rest of your extraordinary new life.  Everything that has preceded today is behind you–part of your old past; it has nothing to do with the new you that you are about to become.  The New You begins today and begins 1 bar at a time.  Eat a bar, enjoy the bar, and then enjoy that knowledge that…[Read more]

You are perfectly on track.  This is so exciting!  And just think: already 4 days of this relatively short journey are already behind you!  4 of the hardest days are behind you!  This is getting good, but please don’t let off the gas pedal.  We want to FLY through the finish line before you do.  Great work!

Today has been a good one thus far. Day 4 for me, I started Friday so I could have the weekend to work through the tough part. Now it’s easier and I have work to distract me.

I’ll be having the same food, lunch and dinner, same volume. Lots of coffee, plenty of water.

I totally agree with you!!

Thank you!

I am with the “5 Bite Diet Warriors and More” FB group and “Every Bite Counts”, which I have seen you pop into occasionally. I really enjoy the Every Bite Counts group however in both it seems like things fizzle out (I am guilty of this as well). I’m thinking having the “pressure” of a doctor’s watch will keep me more accountable than…[Read more]

Awesome, Rachel!  Welcome!  I’m so happy you’re here!

Yes, we have been slow at the beginning of this year.  But you and I will start this season off on a bang!

Out of curiosity, which Facebook group are you involved in?  Why do you think they couldn’t help you hold yourself to account?

I look forward to your responses on the message I sent you…[Read more]

Great job, Gayle!  Honestly, doesn’t it feel great?  What amount of food–that you’ve already tasted–is better than that?!
