These before/after photos of food are really cool. I will do it myself after finishing the bar challenge.
You will definitely get results with Cognitive Therapy. You will uproot those false beliefs and behaviors such as “food is the greatest thing in life, I have to eat as much as I can”….

I do enjoy a warmed-up Snickers bar! Yes, smaro, you might like to read further articles by Dr. Jason Fung at his site, “Intensive Dietary Management.” A nephrologist, he made the connection between diabetes, diet, and the benefits of fasting.

Thank you for the welcome guys! I’m already in maintenance in my mind as I know it’s achievable – so excited! X

Thank you all for your support! Let’s all do this together!

Love your focus and commitment. Every day will build on itself and you will become UNSTOPPABLE!! Run baby run — you will be at that finish line before you know it.

Yay Crissa!

Evening Follow-up

1 bar today, lots of liquids. Feeling pumped by the energy of this group!!

Let’s gooooooo!!

Very inspiring, DrCollins! So glad you’re here!

Thank you, Gayle! I’m trying!!

4/18- no lunch and 1 bar for supper
lots of water and unsweetened green tea

(I bought a box of protein bars at Aldi. Each one is 1.4 oz and has 190 calories. Also, they don’t look like candy and make my children ask for one. Perfect!)

Now I’m ready for us to rock Day 3! :cheer:
