Hi Rebekah.  I hope the first few days have gone well for you.  Wishing you the best and hoping you are past the worst of it now hunger-wise.

<p style=”text-align: left;”>That is great news, Bk!  Glad to hear it’s going well.  I’m finding the same thing about staying busy.  It helps so much.  Keep it going, you are doing great!</p>

You can do this, sk!  It’s true what Dr. Lewis said about hunger being an inevitable part of this.  But know that you aren’t alone.  Sending you lots of positivity and encouragement.

Doing well and trying to stay busy! Luckily the weather is really beautiful right now in Washington state. It’s really helping me think about how uncomfortable extra weight is in the summer!

Thanks for all the encouragement Dr.Lewis! You are great! I am going to strictly eat Snickers this week and see how it goes. No more regular food for now because I can’t control myself.  I am going to try to get the job done this week. Starting over AGAIN.

So you’ve laid down the line.  Great.  That’s the first step.  Now every minute that you go without eating–from here on in–you are getting closer and closer to your dream body.  Don’t let off the gas pedal.  Of course you are going to get hungry!  But so what?  It’s just a temporary distraction.  Don’t give in.  Have your coffee and hot water re…[Read more]

Hope you are doing well Rebekah. Thursday nearly already tomorrow. I realize how quickly the week passes also then reminds me of how quickly the weight comes off too when we are perfect. Sending you strength and determination

Yes I agree just getting past the three days is the hardest. Stick with it stay focussed and busy BK. We can do this. We will be so happy after a good perfect week

well done today x

Thank you girls. BAck on track today and kept it simple with my food. 2 bars and coffee and lots of water.
kept really busy cleaning the house and did some yoga and a zoom work call. Feel good again and going to bed earlier tonight as am tired. Hope everyone has had  a great day xx

Had my second bar and feeling good. Looking forward to feeling lighter tomorrow. For me the next 3 days are usually the toughest to resist temptation.

Glad your back on track! You can definitely do this.

You got this Rebekah! I tend to try and stay warm and cozy up with a blanket. Sometimes I’ll even just head straight to bed or do a face mask/nails to distract myself.

Thanks so much everyone! I’m doing great so far and will eat my first bar soon

You can do it, Poppycat!  You’ve done a fantastic job so far (11 lbs!), so I have no doubt you will get back on track starting today.   Hang in there!  You’ve got this.

Hi everyone , I lost my focus And became very stressed with my work situation and  hit the ground badly with the eating. I have to remember to keep focussed as that is what happened. Also going grocery shopping with my husband I picked up way too much food . Lesson learnt .  Wednesday I begin again and will weigh one week from today

Welcome back Rebekah. Great start to the week for you. I am in awe of everyone here who does the five bite diet as it takes a lot of focus and mindset. Focus is key and that is something I have to work on a lot. I wish you a fantastic weight loss week Rebekah. So happy to see you back x

Well done Maria for executing that behavior so well. Perfect 👌

Proud that you are back BK. I think the start of doing this diet is very hard and the mind has to be very focussed. You are incredible for just being here and coming back. Those who keep trying , get back up , dust  off and try again.
I am in awe of you for not giving up and wish you your best week ever

Great job, Maria!

So BK, it comes down to this:  do you really want to be skinny?  Because the food can wait, and the hunger will go away.  Keep reminding yourself of that.  Then, when those tempting occasions do arise, follow Maria’s lead and physically remove yourself from the area as quickly as possible.
