Yay! Let’s do a post for scale piks for everyone

Thank you everyone! Thanks Dr. Lewis. Yes! I will do the bars for a week. I will make a new topic for my journey and post my scale pictures every day. I think that will help me.

Today is Halloween! Three years ago when I FINALLY committed to getting to finish line, I started two weeks before Halloween, I challenged myself to a “candy-free” halloween. This will be my third candy-free Halloween. Love to be a rebel and to go against convention. Part of me decided to do this bcs I used to eat the candy like it was somehow a s…[Read more]

2 bars done and dusted.

Yay Me!!

good night all!

Wow that sounds amazing! I love everything you just wrote it’s very inspiring and I also have a 11 pounds to go

This is such a motivating response Dr LEwis!! I’m going to make a personal commitment!! Going to read this over and over.

Brilliant!  

Right you two.  There is NOTHING like going into the holidays ALREADY SKINNY.  Already at your magic number.  There is nothing like it.  It is such a huge weight off your shoulders.  And all the food that you eat between now and then is meaningless–pointless.  You will not remember it in a week, let alone a year from now.  You might rememb…[Read more]

My name is Brenda. Thank you so so much for the support! I think I’m going to post my journey and weight each day to keep me accountable. I’ve never done anything like that before, kind of embassing that I have let myself get so out of control. I have turned to food for comfort and security and stability and have put on 40 pounds in one year. Ugh.…[Read more]

Welcome BJS!  I sent you a message, and that will get us started.  But like Laura wrote in a previous post, why not treat this diet as you would a prescription medication and follow it religiously.  Then count down the 72 hours until your hungerstat resets.  In fact, why not force yourself to have just a Snickers bar twice a day for a full wee…[Read more]

Welcome back, Laura!  I LOVE your frame of mind.  I LOVE that attitude.  Treat the diet as life-or-death prescription, and count down the hours.  Life that exact 5-bite lifestyle until you cross that amazing finish line.  We are all here with you!  

Welcome back Laura! I am resetting too. You are in good company. Love your idea to set a timer.  You are going to look so amazing on your xmas trip.

What is your first name?

My name is Gayle. YOU WILL SO ROCK THIS WEEK!!! The body of your dreams awaits you. No food tastes as good as being healthy, feeling light in your body, feeling beautiful, sexy and strong. We ALL slip. We ALL have our stops and starts but this program and group will support you. 5B gives you the tools and Dr. Lewis and…[Read more]

THANKS KATIE! I’m Doing It!! Holidays and birthday are quickly approaching and I am gearing up!!

Time to be BOLD! I was hiding but ready to get real and accountable. This is the result of two back to back vacations!! I was going to wait until Friday but was inspired by Katie’s scale pik. I have a way of playing and allowing little bites, tastes and licks to creep in.

I know that most of this is added volume and water weight (lots of salty…[Read more]

Hi Chloe: I have loved reading your journal. It’s so encouraging to me!! I know you you are going to hit your goals so easily and feel amazing

I love your determination and honesty! It’s inspiring!!

You are going to do amazing. Take it one day at a time! This group has been great for support and accountability l. I know you are going to reach your goals before you know it.

I am sorry I went quiet for a week. Time for a reset tomorrow. My numbers are still the same which is a relief since I haven’t gained but I haven’t been going in the right direction. I am taking a different mindset with reset this time: I am setting a timer for the next 72 hours to get through the hardest days and when I am discouraged I can loo…[Read more]
