Susan you are doing a great job

“You look like a tiny version of yourself, you look like a little elf.  It’s like you elf’d yourself.” – My husband, commenting on my weight loss. 😂

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 !!

“You need to delay gratification today for an amazing future. And that future is not too far down the road.”- Dr. Lewis

“Five bites. Twice a day. It is monotonous and robotic, but you can do it!”  – Dr. Lewis

What a great day for you Sharon!! You are doing so great!!

My advice on eating regular food is to stay focused. This is an area I am working on as well. I will sometimes have 4 bites instead of 5 so that I know that I am beyond perfect. I also take small bites even though it’s tempting to take big bites. The food actually tastes better in s…[Read more]

Me too Sharon.

“We have years and years of ingrained bad habits surrounding food on a very subconscious level. And, if we don’t stay 100% focused we may slip up. Don’t take that chance, stay focused.” – Dr. Lewis

Excellent Results!!

Perfect is as Perfect does. 

You are right on track, Sharon!  A true inspiration to us all!  Keep up the great work!!  

Just started reading through this! Wow! Great info and insight. I love it!

I hope Fletch knows  people are still benefiting from this all these years later!!

Slolady,

Great first week!!! So glad you are coming in here and watching chats, etc. It really helps with focus to keep this program in the fore front of your mind!! 

Agreed everyone!  Your body is talking to you when you go astray.  Listen to it and learn from it!  Your body WANTS you thin, so go for it!!!  

I can’t wait!  Drum roll …

Hi Slolady, Thank you so much!!
Not getting on the scale until Thursday. It would be amazing to see double digits coming off this week!!
I feel good, strong, and not hungry! 

I also have this same battle with regular food. Exactly the way you worded it. The battle between wanting to do just 5 bites and wanting more food.

Heres the way I look at it, I will NEVER regret just having 5. I will ALWAYS regret having more than 5. For both physical (as you now know!) and emotional reasons. The trick is to look at it this way…[Read more]
