“It’s really enjoyable to eat, but, it’s even more enjoyable to stop after five bites!”- Dr. Lewis 

Awesome!! You are a strong lady, with a record of overcoming and freeing yourself from addiction. Amazing! 

Not sure if this helps but whenever I look at the scale, I tell myself, I will NEVER see that number on my scale again. It helps me to know that I am just going down from here.

Here it goes! I start my new week on Thursdays. I already recorded my weight loss (-3 pounds) for last week and closing the door on it.

Today starts a new week of 2 Snickers bars per day and not a single bite of anything else. Only black coffee, black tea, and plain water to drink. Going to try hot water today as it’s pretty cold here. Going to s…[Read more]

Lunch: 3 bites of cannolo 2 of almonds cake

Thank you Susan!

Wow! Fasted for  3 weeks!!! I’ve fasted for 3 days before but not 3 weeks! That’s actually how I broke free from cigarettes. I fasted one day and begged God to help me quit. I was smoking 3 packs a day. After my 24 hour fast, I smoked my last cigarette, took it minute by minute, and here  22 years later I’m still smoke free. P…[Read more]

I’m with you Rebekah! This was supposed to be my perfect week of just bars but I messed up twice.

I weigh in on Thursday and so after weighing in tomorrow I begin again for that pefect week.

I bought all my bars for this coming week. Going with regular snickers. I am going to label them with dates and times to eat them. That helps me.

Also, I s…[Read more]

I’ve  been successful so far avoiding the temptation to eat. I’m settled in now watching tv. The Masked Singer is in and I’ve been following it. I’ll go to bed after this. I’m anxious to see what my weight loss will be after one perfect week. Thank you for your help. I’ve found this is the best place for me to go when I’m tempted and struggling.

Had trouble journaling today while chasing the two of them around. I had my 2nd bar around 6:30 with water. Sipping decaf tea now. Done for the night. Sitting with my electric blanket on, waiting for the snow!  ❄️ ⛄️

Exactly.  Too bad.  But be sure you don’t watch it with them!!  

But don’t!  (Don’t weigh yourself!).  I LOVE the fact that it’s killing you not to know what you weigh today, but that which burns inside you will help to keep you focused on the project.  It will also makes every day exciting, as you are 1 more day closer to your weekly weigh-in.   Just focus on the process–not the results.  The results will…[Read more]

Beautiful!  Sorry I’m late arriving–(how late am I?) .  But GREAT that you are here!

First, have you still been able to avoid the temptation to eat?  How long has you been doing the diet PERFECTLY?

You are right–just one measly week out of your entire lifetime.  That’s all I’m asking.  And if not THIS week, when?

I’m just getting on here cause I’m having a weak moment. This is a distraction for me. I want so bad to have ONE perfect week. Just one. I haven’t had a perfect seven consecutive days since I’ve started. But, I have to take it day by day to get there.

Susan, thank you for sharing your success from the past with this diet plan! I am in awe of your determination, you are a shining example that focus can be maintained over a long period of time. I hope to be able to follow your example of perfection. I did watch some chat videos last night; those videos renewed my motivation and helped me feel…[Read more]

Dinner: 1 bite of gnocchi 4 bites of merluzzo

Jessica, congratulations on getting past day 2. You’re doing what I’m doing, taking it one day at a time. Susan’s story is so inspiring. Thank you for sharing with us.

I haven’t crossed the finish line myself, so I’m still 5 biting with you. I lost 45 pounds last year. 35 of it on this program from July 1 to October.

Youre certainly not alone…[Read more]

That last quote is so true. I’ve had to reset again. This time, I plan on holding on till I’m done. It’s crazy how fast and easy I got back into the habit of snacking. But when I was doing it before, I had no desire to snack or eat more than 5 bites. So I’m gonna HANG ON!

Yes. Missing

My granddaughters watch a cartoon called Let’s Go Luna and today’s episode was called “I’m in the Mood for Food!!” Whyyyy??? Lol.   

I brought my kit kat Bar to my sons house to have for lunch while babysitting my granddaughters. I needed a little extra sustenance so I smeared a little Peanut Butter on it.

Still weighed under 2 Oz and was still 5 bites . 

And had 8 Oz Coffee

Lunch: snickers and some other bites :/)
