Activity

Perfect!! I am about to start my day again. Have a perfect day. Keep that scale moving. We are in control!

Wow!!!!! Another 2.5lbs down overnight. Once you get in a groove it is so exciting to see the scale go down the next morning. I will update my weight tracker soon. I will never “find” these lost pounds again. I am so thrilled!!! People are believers now. I am telling everyone about this simple but extremely effective diet. 

Lunch done; 3 bites of a raisin bun with cheese, 1 bite of tortilla chips, 1 bite of chocolate, 1 bite of my daughters chocolate croissant.

Is it ok that I have an erratic sleep/wake cycle? like some days I wake up too late for lunch which is served 12:30pm. So then I have to wait until dinner, control my portions. Then snack time here is at 8pm which sometimes I have to count as my late dinner. But as indicated in the book, I wait at least 4 hours in between meals. Will this impede…[Read more]

Thanks Dr Lewis that is so nicely put,  I have trade wanting to be skinny with eating those extra bites, I am going to try to remember that every time I feel tempted.

Brilliant.  Your future is so incredibly bright! 

Nothing is going to get in my way. I am looking forward to so many things when I reach my goal. Can’t wait!!!!! 

Right. It wasn’t much, but it made me feel in control. I choose my 5 bites. I don’t just finish a bar just because there is a little bit left. I am proud of my discipline. I haven’t been able to say that in a while. 

Yes, Matt!  You are doing great!  Keep up this wonderful work.  And don’t you think that journaling, as you are, is helping you a lot?

Yes!  I love it!  I especially love that you threw a few bites of your bar away.  Not that the extra bar would have done any significant damage–it’s just a fraction of an oz–but it’s the mere fact that you threw it away means that your mental state is brilliant.  Right where I want it.  You understand.  You’ve got this!!!  And your so welcome!!  

That is true. You can always get right back up, dust yourself off and make your next meal a great one.

I did fall of the wagon this evening, so annoyed with myself; but I did find a very encouraging post on the forum Dr Lewis wrote:”You guys–failing is part of life. Great. Get back up, and go for it again. And again. And again. What makes a champion is not how few times you get knocked down, but rather how many times you get back up”.

So I’m g…[Read more]

Way to go Matt! It feels amazing doesn’t it? I love how fast you feel results with this diet. You’re rocking it!

Day 18 Entry: 4/27/2018

Another day – another LB down!

It’s in auto-pilot now, I’m around food all the time, that is inevitable. The thing that I didn’t expect, and I’m not sure why, is how loose clothes would start to fit. I wear the same jeans each week, and today they are officially needing to go back on the rack. In addition, my favorite…[Read more]

That’s amazing Danicaj 5lbs, unbelievable, well done you, I don’t think I have ever lost that amount of weight at any time in my life

Yes keep that discipline let’s do a perfect 5 bite weekend together 

I’ve finally learned not to feel hopeless, like a victim, or even content with having a body I’m not totally proud of. I had a huge weight loss (5 lbs) after yesterday’s perfect 5 bite day. I ate 5 small bites of an Atkins meal bar, and 5 bites of a roast I made for dinner. Protein keeps me feeling fuller longer. I’m loving this diet!! Thank y…[Read more]

Ok don’t do it!!

So, I just woke up it’s 5:30 am here. I had the most perfect diligent 5 bite day yesterday and I just weighed.. holy moly I lost 5 lbs since yesterday!!!! I’m elated. Keep that discipline. Read my motivation post. I’m in shock.

Just received a message that is really stressing me out, and now I just feel to throw in the towel and just stuff my face with food, but I came on here to try to prevent a binge, the food does comfort me while I eat it but afterwards I know I will regret it because it will get me further away from my goal, so I have to stay strong and keep my head…[Read more]
