<p style=”text-align: center;”>I am visualising my weight to ask my brain to reach it every night before falling asleep.</p>
Avoiding mindless eating brings on the surface the reals reasons of why I often need to overeat. Stress. Boredom. Depression.

I try to face the real problems with the right answers, not food.

Hi everyone

I am joining your race to lose few pounds in advance before Christmas holidays.

I am reading your posts everyday.

I am trying to eat one meal at time. To think that my race starts with the last 5 bites party and ends with the other.

Then again.

I know I can’t eat more one or two bites of the same food. It gives me strong c…[Read more]

Today was perfect! Hooray!!!

I MUST drink my coffee in the morning, rather than waiting until later. For some reason, even if I drink exactly the same amount, I do much better if I drink my first coffee around breakfast time. I feel less hungry that way!

I ate Butterfinger bars for my meals today; they weigh 1.9 oz so they’re about…[Read more]

Day 6 of my reset

No weight loss this morning. 😢😢😢 I was eating just eggs, but they were making feel sick. So yesterday I switched back to 5 bites of my vegan food. I had 5 bites of dolmas and hummus, for both lunch and dinner, totaling about 300 calories . I even cut out coffee creamer, and spent 45 minutes on the treadmill.  I…[Read more]

I am in Sacramento. We don’t get ice, but it does dip down this time of year. Woke up to 35degree weather outside. That is really cold for is, so I understand! Trying to bundle up and stay warm inside as I live in an older home that doesn’t retain heat very well…very drafty. Just an excuse to drink more coffee!!! 😂

Yes, in the last 5 days I am…[Read more]

Wow, 5 days is really great! I keep cheating every few days, ugh! I am going to follow your example.

So you have lost 8 lbs in 5 days? That’s amazing! I need to cut out the artificial sweet stuff too.

I hope you have a good evening! We are supposed to get ice here, so that’s going to be interesting. The trees are already wearing icicles!

Thank you Susan! Today I realized, I have been forgetting my resolution to be perfect simply for the sake of being perfect! I do want to get skinny!!! I appreciate that you took the time to encourage me to try harder. Thank you!

Today was way better. I was super busy cleaning this morning, and it was 12 pm before I realized it! It was…[Read more]

Wow!  Right on advice, Susan!!

Thank you!

I am on Day 5 of my reset:

Slowed to 1lb a day. Need to cut the creamer and diet sodas out.

Hola Skinny,

Mexico is wonderful. We go to all different areas but I love Cozumel the most!! My husband speaks pretty fluent Spanish, I do not. Most of the places we go, the people speak some degree of English.

I hope you don’t mind if I point out some things that stand out to me in your posts. I just want to give you some advice that I truly h…[Read more]

Another NSV story:

I went to a thrift shop and found the “clearance rack”. There was a brand new pair of GAP black skinny jeans Size 0. Tags still on them!  They were only $1.00!! I tried them on and they fit very well! I thought,  I must be missing something ?? Why are these only  $1.00?? Is there a hole in them or something??

I asked the ow…[Read more]

Skinny,

My starting weight was 250. I am now 123. You can and will do this! I know you can and when you do you will be sooo happy! Actually, happy doesn’t even begin to describe how this feels!!

It is amazing as you lose weight and your body mass decreases you become so much more comfortable in every day situations. Like you mentioned you just t…[Read more]

Today was crazy. I started out with great intentions and ended up just eating a lot by evening.

I didn’t go as overboard as Thanksgiving, or eat as much as before I started dieting. But more than I planned on. There is NOTHING planned tomorrow, it’s bad weather. So it is a perfect day for a Snickers only day! That’s what I’m going to…[Read more]

That is wonderful, Rachel!!!

Sorry I have been absent again. I needed to work on something that has been my nemesis for weight loss for many years. Wine. I was drinking 2-4 glasses a day, and occasionally more on weekends, due to stress. So I started on an alcohol free challenge for 30 days. I am on day 18.  🎉🎉🎉 It has been a lot easier than I thought, and it has made me…[Read more]

The benefits are just beginning.

Susan, how was Mexico? Did you learn any Spanish before you went? I have always wanted to visit, a few ladies in my church are from Tlaxcala. We have a ‘sister’ church there, so maybe someday I will get to go. But it’s currently out of the question!

I know that Tlaxcala is in the mainland, so I imagine that near the coast would be quite…[Read more]

I haven’t lost a LOT yet- but here’s a story!

I used to always have to worry about my belly sticking out, but it doesn’t look that noticeable now! Yesterday I kept asking my mom if my coat was too tight, and then I saw my reflection in a widow and realized that I’m smaller than I thought! My brain still thinks I stick out…[Read more]

Today was probably worse than yesterday. It was my sister’s bday celebration so I ate 14 bites of food total, plus a whole scoop of icecream and quite a few extra spoons of hot sauce because I was really hungry. I also VERY SERIOUSLY considered a slice of pizza. But I AM going to stay strong! No more! The rest of this evening I WILL be…[Read more]
