Last night 5Bt lamb chop.
I feel like James Brown sings, “… GOOD!!”

I’m going to be hard pressed to make it to the chats right at 6. I take my boys to 6pm practice at the pool for water polo. I try not to drop them too early or they’ll get into some mischief before the coach arrives. I’m wondering if I can join late – say 5 minutes late. I understand if I’m the only participant, that Doctor may have given up by…[Read more]

Yay, so good to see more activity here on the forum

Matt, you go to community there’s an orange bar called “upcoming chats archived chat”.

Tao,

Thanks! It’s nice to have such a warm welcome.  I do know about the water thing, what I experience is an urgency related to the irritation to my bladder that is caused by the caffeine. Once I’m through the reset, I really don’t need any help with hunger. I’ll be fine. I am curious though if anyone else has this issue.

Hi circlecityvegan.

WELCOME!

Just a couple points to ease your mind.
1) Coffee is NOT a requirement of this eating plan.
It’s only brought up so frequently because Doc Al wants to make sure if we DO drink coffee, that we drink it BLACK (so we’re not sneaking in calories in the A.M., outside the eating window). Unsweetened and uncreamed tea…[Read more]

Kinda’ jazzed even if I’m blowing my own horn.

12 pounds this week!

After the little set-back two weeks in, I put my electrolytes/minerals and blood pressure back in order.

Now my trajectory is set. I truly wish I could count on twelve pounds a week cause I’d be done 10 1/2 weeks from now (a bit more than 2 months). Yes, I’m impatient but…[Read more]

Where are the chats? I’ll try to join one next time.

Edit: I found them. Using ZOOM…duh!

Talk about motivating and validating. Validation was already there in the results, but it’s great to read that.

Been a bit, but getting back in the groove here. I’ve been fluctuating from 195 to 198, but lowest right now is 194. I’ll be updating the journal here in the same way, but just wanted to post I’m still here – and still very proud of my progress (and everyone else’s!).

Great Tao let’s do it together 

Thanks Tao, let’s hope it’s just water weight, but anyhow no matter where the weight is coming from with 5 bites it will be gone very soon   

Dr Lewis, Yay let’s feel the fat burning 

Funny how time gets away from us. 20 days since I last posted on this thread.

This week, only one 5 bite meal per day.

Thursday A.M. is my weigh-in. Crossing my…[Read more]

So sorry.

I’m back on track, and will be posting more consistently.

I get how strange it feels when we think we’re writing only to ourselves.

Peace,
Tao

Thanks for sharing that, Tao.  I’m a little embarrassed :oops:, but I’m thrilled I could help impact the health and life of a few people close to you.
