Activity

Made it through the day and stayed on track.  Actually, only had 3 bites at lunch, but seem to be okay.  Looking forward to another day tomorrow with my bites under control.

I like that, Corey.  You WILL get into those jeans.  Now that you have a “break” from school, use this time to do the amazing–the unbelievable!  You CAN DO THIS!!

Made it through the first week with a couple of slips, but I made it.  Glad that I still lost, though not as much as I could have though.  This time around, I am going to try to focus more on the positive and not be so negative.  Purchased a pair of designer jeans for added motivation.  Not sure how much I need to lose to get them to fit, but I a…[Read more]

I love that idea, Corey!  You deserve a massage every day that you adhere perfectly to this program.  I say on a really good day of hardly eating, reward yourself with a full hour or two!!!  

The last two days have been a bit of a challenge, but not impossible.  I seemed to have been pretty focused on food so much yesterday that I thought ‘I really need ____.’, but I didn’t.  Just found something else to do and before I knew it, the craving was gone.   I decided to, in order to take my mind off of the food so much, to start going to…[Read more]

You too!  Happy Memorial Day to all!

I agree with both of you.  It is A LOT harder eating just 5 bites of food when you are eating out.  BUT, overcoming a much harder challenge produces an even greater sense of accomplishment.  The reward is massive, and you will feel invincible.  You will have accomplished a feat that that but a handful of people in the country can do–maybe eve…[Read more]

it is much more difficult eating out  just 5 bites than just sticking to 5 bites of snickers

Susan you are doing a great job

Slolady – great job!, but does the exercise not stimulate your appetite?  Or are you keeping the walking at an easy, comfortable pace?  Remember my take: do WHATEVER it takes to get all of the excess weight off as quickly as possible, THEN exercise, work out, etc.  Of course, exercise may be appropriate for anxiety and other issues, but pr…[Read more]

You are a great example Susan!

“One way to avoid a slip up,is to have a very regimented routine. Such as opening up prepackaged food that is exactly 5 bites, such as a Snickers bar, and eating that and only that twice a day at least four hours apart.”-Dr. Lewis

Glad you’re doing well!! So awesome that hubby is joining you! Spousal support makes a big difference! We are both lucky !!
