Activity

I love it Danica!! What podcast are you listening to? I am driving on the road 10 hours per week! I have listened to all the chats TWICE and some three times! Lol.

I looked on the label and don’t see how much caffeine.

Exactly right.  COMMITMENT is everything.

Wow!  Do you mind checking for me: How much caffeine does each bar have?

I will look out for that bar. Sounds good.

True Danica!! 

Speaking of new things to eat…. I found a new candy bar called “cold brew”. It is made with coffee and espresso beans and dark chocolate!! Exactly 5 bites. I can feel the caffeine working. So good!! 

I guess it’s “fun” knowing I can do this! It’s fun finding new things to eat knowing nothing is off limits. But, It will be more fun when I hit my goal and can say I am done!!

I know what you mean Shelly. I don’t know if you saw my other post about a podcast I listened to. Basically it said in reference to your goals: are you interested in achieving them or are you committed to achieving them? Interested will do what is convenient, and committed won’t let anything get in the way.

Right!  Take it one 5-bite meal at a time!    

Right, right, right!

Another thing that helps is that I try  to look at this as a lifesaving tool. Extra fat is so unhealthy. I want to get it off as soon as I can. It is almost like a game now to me. When I get hungry right before my next scheduled meal I imagine that a hunger pang is the sound of fat falling off. Lol. Hey, whatever works right?. =)

Thank you Dr Lewis.  And Danica.

I have to get thoughts out of my head that day. I JUST DONT CARE.  I hear it often when I’m tired. Sick.  In pain. Or stressed

which is all the time    

I no longer watch the news because I was told it feeds my depression.

Im reading Dr Lewis quotes daily and I printed them out.

I also listen to a lot of podcasts when I am on the road and I heard something that really stuck with me and I applied it to this diet

As far as your goals are concerned are you interested in achieving them or committed?

If you’re interested you’ll do what’s convenient. If you’re committed you won’t let anything get in your way

Shelly.. get in that confident zone of “ I’m not letting anything get in my way.”.. You get to choose whether or not you are going to follow this plan perfect. I know you can do it!!! It feels so satisfying ending each day knowing you followed the plan.  I hope you’re feeling better.  You’ve got this! 

Thanks Dr Lewis! I’m just following your plan as exact as possible. It’s my GPS to my destination of being thin. Not straying off course one tiny bit.

Exactly Less!! The 6th bite just isn’t worth it. Try counting down your bites that helps me a lot. Let’s get double digits this week. Your next meal is a brand new start. 

I know you can do it!! 3 lbs is still very good. Have a great day today.

Shelly, you “pray nothing gets in the way of your eating 5 bites.”  You don’t need to pray for it.  It’s 100% in your hands.  No one is forcing you to eat.

In terms of what to drink, try HOT water at night.  It should keep you awake, and it’s quite filling.

Let me let everyone here in on Danica’s little secret:  she is no longer hungry.  Once the hungerstat sets, the whole program becomes totally manageable, and you can get as thin as you want as quickly as you want.  It all goes back to: do you really want the end result?  Do you truly want to get to your goal weight?  If you do, then just do as D…[Read more]
