? I don’t know, I just found the website.   Dr Lewis will have to tell us!

We can do bars together! A bar challenge. If it would help you.

I haven’t lost anything either; this morning I weighed 197.6! I’m being perfect though and hoping for a drop.

Tonight we are going out with friends to go Christmas caroling and then play volleyball; but my plan is to eat my bar beforehand and not eat while there.

Day 9 of my reset

SW 176
CW 165.5

Zero loss this morning.   Yesterday I had 5 bites of falafel for lunch, and 5 bites of a vegan burrito bowl for dinner.  Pretty sodium and carb heavy maybe?  I will watch that on future bites.   I am considering bars for the rest of the week leading up to Christmas.

*I am hungry, but I am happy beca…[Read more]

I am guessing that it will get a little busier on the forums in the next week or so with all of those NYE resolutions people are making.

Today was a great day!

Butterfinger bars again, one for lunch, one for supper.

I drank 3 mugs of coffee, and warm water when I was thirsty.

I’ve been trying to keep bundled up lately; I’ve been more cold than usual. And I’m hoping it will help me lose faster!

It’s great to be back on track again. Food is such a strong habit! But…[Read more]

Wynona, when I first did the 5 Bite Diet in 2006 every day I would write a take my weight write it down and or any loss or gain. That paper help me keep focus. That might be my suggestion, for what it’s worth. Sean

Susan, thank you for your very kind words of encouragement. That means a lot to me. So far the day is going fairly well but I have to admit that a couple of times I’ve fallen. However school is out for Christmas holiday and so I don’t have to worry about final exams, students, and a whole host of other things. I will have time to do what I wan…[Read more]

Dr. Lewis, please forgive me for not responding sooner. My School finally finished final examinations and let the boys out for Christmas vacation. Becky asked me an immense amount of freedom to get other things done rather than pay attention to students.

140 lbs!?! I remember you telling me that once in your office and I was horrified! I must…[Read more]

Great job, Rachel!!!

Thanks, it works great now!

Day 8 of my reset

SW 176
CW 165.5

1.5 lb loss this morning. Yesterday I had 5 bites of vegan meatballs in tomato sauce for both lunch and dinner.  No diet sodas. 

*I am hungry, but I am happy because hunger is natural. Feeling full is unnatural* 

Oops.  My error.  I’ll fix it..

Yes! Me too

Thank you Rachel!

Another perfect day! Hooray!

We went out for burgers and to go look at Christmas lights tonight. I ate my bar beforehand, and drank a small diet soda while the others enjoyed burgers and shakes. I had to have my sister taste my soda to make sure it was diet- it tasted so good!

The rest of my day was…[Read more]

Bundling up is a great idea to beat the cold! You are doing an awesome job Skinny!

You can do this Wyonna. Mind over matter.  Remember that feeling full is just a bad habit, and it is unnatural. Hunger is natural. So when you are hungry, take a deep breath, count down from 5, and say I am happy because I am hungry as it is natural and means I am burning fat.  I also keep some visuals around that encourage me to stay the c…[Read more]

Thank you for the encouraging words! I may stop weighing in the next week or two. But right now I use it as a tool to make sure I am getting my bite sizes right. In previous attempts at the 5BD I was losing 1.5-2lbs a day. So that is where I am trying to get again. If it doesn’t, so be it. It will just take a few extra weeks to get to goal.
