Activity

I took the plunge and went on the scale. After vacation, bday and 2 thanksgiving splurges: 126.8.

That’s actually pretty good – considering. I am headed down to 116-117 and fast!!

See you on the call later Dr. Lewis!!

I’m with you Rachel!! I love Dr. Lewis’s challenge – how many perfect 5 bite days

Welcome back, Rachel, and congrats on Day #41!  Now lets start another series: how many perfect five-bite days in a row you can put together.  Post-Thanksgiving is a great time to start.  I want you to love–and CRAVE–the process of getting skinny.  Once the hunger goes, the act of losing weight will be your new vice.  Good luck with this new…[Read more]

Thanks so much for sharing.

Sounds like a fabulous plan Gayle. 🎉 I find the Calm app super helpful.  There is a great sleeping meditation on there called Letting Go Into Sleep.  And another one called Gently Back to Sleep for when I wake up in the middle of the night. Have a fantastic afternoon!

Thank you! So true…just need to get a few days here under my belt.  I have got down as far as 154 on 5 bite. Not goal, but a lot less than I am now.  I know the culprit now all this time was the alcohol.  With that not part of my life anymore, I am confident that this is going to be a HUGE success. Happy to see you back for a tune up! I think we…[Read more]

Hi Rachel-

I am sooo happy to see you here!! Good for you for starting today. Loved your post and was super helpful.

It’s so true. What OUTCOME do we want? The outcome I want is…

The fastest path to skinny. I’ve tried EVERYTHING!! I’ve been on and off 5bite for 5 years. Most of the time, I stayed within goal range. When my portions get too…[Read more]

Day 1 of what will be my “final reset”, Sunday November 29th.  I must do this.  I am making the choice to choose skinny and healthy.

Starting weight 204.4

Day 2 – December Detox

Day 1 was PERFECTION! Had 2 bars and not hungry. I probably was still full from Thanksgiving. Today is the same plan. 2 bars (giving myself latitude of pre-packaged veggie burger instead of bar – this worked quite effectively before in case I tire of bars).

I chose some keto bars and other bars that do not have so much…[Read more]

Here’s a little mantra I hold whenever I need to tame the “monkey”.

Everything is a CHOICE

Every choice has an OUTCOME

Every outcome is an OPPORTUNITY to learn grow and evolve further if I make another CHOICE to do so.

What is the upside if I indulge in extra bites today?

How will it allow me to create opportunities?

Will this serve the h…[Read more]

Sheepishly I am returning back to this group.  And thank you for always being so sweet and welcoming every time.  Time to get honest and real…I feel like this is the only safe place for me to admit to this.

I couldn’t figure out why I kept faltering in the past.  Why I kept having several good days, then to mess up and reverse all the hard wo…[Read more]

Ready to RUN!!

I re-joined in the end of October but really wasn’t ready to FULLY COMMIT! I had a vacation planned, birthday and Thanksgiving. I’m still glad I came back at that time because I remember how FAST and EFFECTIVE 5 Bite can be. It truly is like no other diet and Dr. Lewis is a motivator like no other. I lost 6 pounds within 4 days and…[Read more]

Wonderful!  I look forward to it!

As for tomorrow–Thanksgiving–remember my mantra:

“Taste everything, but finish nothing!”

Happy Turkey Day, Everyone!!

Hi Everyone!

Well – I was automatically resubscribed for the month of November. I was going to rejoin on Saturday anyway. My vacation and birthday were absolutely fabulous!! I gained a bit of weight but expected that to be the case. I actually did better on vacation than I thought I would. I am going to restart on SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 28TH and…[Read more]

Today is Beautiful sunny day in Florida and I woke up with a positive attitude in that I am in total control of my health. After having gone through many annual screenings yesterday , of which one was an iv cat scan with contrast dye just to give me a clear bill of health from my gastro doctor. I hate needles with an avengance and they always…[Read more]

Yes for sure. Love my snickers cold and chewy 🌸🌺have a good strong perfect weekend Father Sean

Using the Ice Box is a simple way to experience most candy bars!!!

Poppycat,  Thanks for your kind words! I was when I stepped on the scale that morning.  I did mention to Dr. Lewis in a note that my experience this this year mirrors my experience from 2006-2007.  The last pounds are the hardest to lose.  Oh well, I am ready to face the challenge.  When I do get to 150 lbs or less I will post a photo of my scal…[Read more]
