Well done Katie. You are strong powerful and committed. You will be skinny Minnie in no time.

Have had a rough week no excuses just me.

Defintley joining  you tomorrow Katie. Right there behind you xxx xxx x  

Hi Georgia!

Thank you so much—I really appreciate that! We can do this! I know I’ve done much harder things so I am going to anchor onto those things.

Have a great night!

Michelle

Hi Dr. Lewis,

Thank you for the advice; this makes sense to me. I do love the idea of joining in with life, albeit on a much smaller scale. I cannot wait to experience this absolute incredible feeling you refer to…I am coming against old programming where my mother would not let us up from the table until we finished everything because of all…[Read more]

I’m really excited for you!  

Right.  I don’t recommend eating any particular kind of food over another.  Protein and fat food do not fill you up more than other food–it’s just a volume thing.  Your body is seeking a certain volume.  I want to reset that to 5 bites-worth, then keep it there until you are done.  The actual make-up of that food is irrelevant.  So eat whate…[Read more]

Hi Dr.Lewis,

I understand that the suggested (best) way to begin is to do bars. I am pondering the idea of sticking with mainly protein/fat items to help combat hunger a bit better. But then I begin to wonder if cutting back on certain food groups might backfire and I will feel deprived. What are your thoughts on this, if I can ask…

Thank you…[Read more]

Funny 😁

You are doing GREAT!!     I love it!!

Hi Michelle!  Welcome back.  Yep!  You are in the right place.  Hang on to those thoughts that brought you back, and let’s do this right now.  As hard as this diet is, it’s much harder to prolong the process, so eat perfectly.  We’ve all got your back.  Let’s do this!

So, what are you planning to eat this week?

I just saw this come through my Facebook feed…lol—

Thank you so much for your encouragement, I am definitely not giving up I have some good days and some not so good, but I really would love to do it hardcore and get done with it. Like you I have also done the diet several times and have been down to 117-118 pounds, but like you I also feel 2nd, 3rd etc time is much harder which is weird because I…[Read more]

Awww Pia, I’m sorry you’re having a rough time now…I get it—I’m sure what number attempt this is for me. I do think it seems harder each attempt. But I am thinking that the result *has* to be worth it—at least that’s the hope and for me, if I give up on that hope then I just give up and nothing will work. As long as there is hope then I need…[Read more]

Hi Michelle.

thank you so much, am so pleased that you found my  “babbling”  useful, to be honest I still want this but for some reason I have struggled to stay consistent and lately I have just sort of maintained the 125 pounds, because of my lack of progress I decided to go in hiding, but I still really want the BMI of 18,5 or lower it’s…[Read more]

Pia,

I hope you are still working this out—I just read through your blog and this has been great; very honest and inspiring. I have literally been making notes about all of the positive quotes and ideas from your blog.

Hope to “see” you around the blogs!

Michelle

P.S. Please ignore my stats—these are outdated and incorrect.

Had 2 perfect days and lost 2 pounds. I’m cut up some pizza and weighed it. My serving size was 80gm by eye, so I cut it down to 50gm. I sometimes have trouble with variation of bite sizes, but weighing is my insurance policy. Sticking to the bars at lunch.

When I overeat, I have terrible indigestion, so I just remember how insufferable that is…[Read more]

That’s a great start, Ladies!  Go for it!  One day at a time–one meal at at time.  You’ve got this!

Wonderful katie. I am cheering you on.  stay away from food for now. My husband has been away for five days so I threw all the food out of the fridge even salad so I didn’t have to be tempted by any food. I have two more days before he is home. I am jumping on tomorrow. Have slipped majorly. Need to get me back again .

racing with you no…[Read more]
