Dr Lewis, I wish I had read that earlier today! You are right, it won’t make me feel better.

I drank 2 mugs of broth today. That has carbon, not as much as juice or milk, but it still has carbon. Then my stomach hurt because it is smaller now. Lesson learned!

I feel a little better today than I had been. It wasn’t a very perfect day…[Read more]

I’m so glad you’re back!! We’re in this together, I want to get done by New Year’s as well!!!

You can do this! I hope these next few days are the best ‘start’ days you’ve ever had!

Day 78

Thanks guys, and yes I am gonna keep at it

Got through today really well. Keeping up my little rituals around the food and reminding myself to stay calm around food, not letting my thoughts get away from me and lead into actions I don’t want, really helps! We’re going to have a little Thanksgiving potluck tomorrow at a friend’s house. I…[Read more]

I love all of that Chloe, especially the part about posting daily to keep yourself accountable!

Indeed!  Colds DO kill your appetite, and all you should be taking in is water until the cold goes away.  MOST people, though, feel that eating somehow, someway makes them get better faster.  It doesn’t!!  It might make them feel better at that moment, but even then, food when you are sick isn’t all that it’s cracked up to be.  Best thing: take…[Read more]

Back for a reset, and a sprint to the New Year!

Day 1
SW 178
CW 176

Love catching up on your journey and reading your inspiring message!

Today was good, not quite as “perfect” as I was planning though! 5 bites total rather than 4, but oh well.

I was really sick today, so I took a lot of naps. I’m feeling better already, but still tired.

Lunch was great, 2 bites of a sandwich I made.

Supper was 2 bites of a taco. Then I had 1 bite of super spicy salsa. (My family usually…[Read more]

Great job! Thanks for checking in here, it’s really encouraging!

Day 77

A successful day this far. My main message to myself that gets me through, “don’t freak out!” Helps me relax around the food knowing I can always have exactly what I want tomorrow, no big deal.

75 and 76

Found some more leaks. I seem to need constant reminders for why I am losing the weight at this juncture. When I first started, the problem and reasons for losing the weight were quite obvious. My extra weight was a constant reminder of my next course of action. Now that I am almost to the finish line, it’s not so obvious. Anyways, so…[Read more]

Today was perfect.

I felt ok, but I had to lie down and take it easy. I think I might be getting sick, a bug of some kind.

Lunch was 2 bites of venison and 1 bite of cheese.

Supper was 2 bites of pizza.

I’m going to go down to 2 bites per meal. I’m determined to get this weight off as quickly as possible!!!

Good night!

Thank you!

You are doing AWESOME!!  I love it!!

Hi everyone! Is it really still Tuesday? It’s been a long day!

I lost 7 lbs!!! I know I said I hoped for 9, but I’m just so happy with what I got!

Last night for some reason I could NOT sleep until 3:30 or 4 am!!! I drank coffee and survived the day until 1 pm, then went to lie down. I finally fell asleep at 3 pm I guess, and slept SO deeply…[Read more]

<p style=”text-align: left;”>Aw shucks! Will hopefully catch you next week!</p>

 Thanks for the plug, Chloe.  Unfortunately, no one showed up tonight.

I love that!  It sounds like you are doing great.

Right!  I want you to think just like you did: we are simply trying to survive each day until we finally cross that finish line.  GREAT!

Some difficulties but working through it, keeping to the principles, reminding myself, looking forward to to being in the lower 140s! I won’t be on chat tonight, but if you haven’t been on the chat before, it’s a great opportunity to talk with Dr. Lewis 1 on 1 and I highly recommend it!

Today was perfect! I feel so much better than yesterday. Not quite as good as I’d like to feel but a lot better!

I drank coffee and water, and I might make some tea in a bit.

Lunch was 3 bites of breakfast casserole.

Supper was 3 bites of chicken.

I’m so excited for my weigh in tomorrow!!!

I feel like I’m just trying to…[Read more]
