YES! Once a week! The daily fluctuations will drive you mad and you’ll lose focus. Focus on getting perfectly on plan: black coffee, water, vitamin, 5 bites, 5 bites and nothing else. Then you won’t fear the scale on your weigh in day and the scale will have no choice but to move down.

It really makes it feel more attainable since with water fluctuations and salt intake, etc., you can’t know 100% what the scale will do but you know for sure a day will pass and you know if you followed the plan or not that day. Go for it! I’m excited for you!

Well after being up 1.8, I am only down 0.6 after 2 bars a day and 3 boneless wings. I’m very discouraged. Should I just weigh once a week? I’m basically feeling like I’m never going to lose the amounts of weight people say they are losing.

I love the chart Alison! I’m inspired by your perfect days. I’m going on a cruise in August so I’m going to do perfect day count down. 😀

Me too Brooks!

Thanks Chris and brooks! I feel wonderful. It’s only a matter of time!

Today marks 15 perfect days in a row!

Breakfast black coffee

Lunch 1/2 a snickers in 5 bites

Dinner pasta with Italian sausage, 5 tastes. I realized today that the bite size I’m eating is the same or less than the size I feed my toddler 

15 perfect days down, 105 to go!

  Yes Chris.  Great plan.  I am so glad to be on this journey.   I am so pumped to finally finish!!!

AAL CONGRATS on two weeks. I bet that feels great!!!

Great job, Brooks!  You are doing GREAT!

Agreed: communion is OK.  You are improving your spiritual health in exchange for an insignificant amount of carbon, which is a good trade-off.  And look at how well you are doing!  You’ve got everything moving in the right direction, so don’t change a thing!  

Awesome job! 10 lbs is huge.

Great plan, I’m excited to follow your journey! Bars for lunch, food for dinner works good for me and is super easy. Have a great day!

Great job!  I might start a journal myself.

Absolutely take communion and I don’t even count it since it’s physical weight is so insignificant (spiritual weight is another story )

Fantastic job! It is tough when the weekend has you off your normal routine and you realize how much food is just waiting to help you pass the time. Awesome pushing through, you’ll never regret that you went…[Read more]

Just weighed in and I’m down another 7 pounds! Still trying not to over analyze the weight and just focus on being perfectly on the diet every day for 120 days. I’m excited to start another day!

Wooo Hooo! Just completed 2 perfect weeks! I weigh in tomorrow morning…

Today: breakfast coffee, lunch 1/2 a snickers eaten in 5 bites, dinner 5 bites pasta salad. I did have some unsweetened iced tea around 2pm when I was getting a bit peckish and that helped to refocus.

14 perfect days in a row, 106 to go!

Day 13 down and it went awesome!

Breakfast black coffee

we do a brunch either Saturday or Sunday, today was brunch so I swapped my bar for 3 tiny bites French toast and 2 tiny bites eggs.

on brunch day, we do an earlier dinner and a snack (for the kids) in the the evening and while I was wanting to eat between 2-3ish, I planned to do dinner at…[Read more]
