I have a suggestion for you. It seems to work for me, so maybe it’ll help you. Try eating something different for one of your meals instead of a snickers. Switch it up with some chicken or white fish. They are excellent sources of protein. Whenever I got stuck on a plateau, white fish, spinach and grapefruit ALWAYS got my weight loss moving again.…[Read more]

I wish I knew how to do that lol– otherwise I would have no problem posting my stats.

OMG I just finished my lunch time snickers bar, and I cannot believe how STUFFED I feel. I actually feel like I’ve eaten an entire meal!! UGH.

Nope. Not even close. And you’re getting really close, so just stick with the 2 Snickers Bars until the job is done, and then the world’s doors will be open to you.

By the way, there’s no way I’m maintaining this weight with eating just 2 Snicker bars per day is there?? I hope not.

Nope. Not at all. Take the Rolaids as you need to, but then just get back to losing he weight. And HAVE FUN with it!

Keep us updated on your progress!

You are going to do great. Just keep plugging along in the right direction, and you have no other choice but to eventually cross the finish line.

By the way, would you mind putting your weight tracking info into your profile, so that when you post a note I can instantly see the summary of your success? Or not? It’s up to you.

Last night, I drank so much water, I stepped on the scale (just before my bath) and found I had gained 5lbs just like that LOL!! Of course, I went to the bathroom several times last night, so this morning I went to the bathroom (had a BM for the first time all week), and I’m only 114lbs now. :S
I know it’s toying with me grrr, and it’s NOT gonna win!

It took about 2 days for mine to be re-set. When I get cravings or temptations, I reach for a cup of coffee, gum, water with lemon juice (and splenda), or a cup of hot tea. It’s been helping me so far.

Rae,
How many days before your hunger stat was reset? I’m really ready for mine to be reset- I’m starving!
Way to hang in there, congrats on your success and best of luck in future weight loss!

I’m trying very very hard here. In my fridge, I have a line of snicker bars lined up for my entire meal-plan for the whole week. Everyday my calories will not exceed 560. I’m drinking nothing but water with lemon juice or some tea (with Splenda). I’m chewing gum to help me NOT think of snacking and also I won’t be sneaking in extra bites…[Read more]

Fantastic!

GOOD NEWS!! My tired-ness is over (yesterday was awesome) and my hungerstat is re-set to just 2 snicker bars a day. All I’ve been having are cups of tea (celestial seasonings), black coffee for the times when cravings come (or if it’s not
time to eat yet), and trident sugarless chewing gum (which also helps).
So, I’m currently 115lbs and I’m so…[Read more]

Right. Good luck! We are all here to help.

..and that’s why today I went to Walmart and bought a few bags of the 2.07oz snicker bars. I’m going to follow this diet to a ‘T’, and drink only black coffee or hot tea (with Splenda) until I reach my goal weight. I want to lose this weight and be done with it so I can then maintain– but first I have to lose it.

It will, very soon, and the excitement of being skinny will only add a boost to your energy level.

Right. I don’t care what you eat.

I am reminded of something you said earlier: you tend to lose 2 pounds when you sleep (because you are not eating), then gain the 2 pounds back during the day. Do you realize how much food you HAVE to be eating? Think about the weight of the food alone. You have to be putting 2 pounds worth of food in your…[Read more]

I just CANNOT wait for this fatigue to leave!!

Oh Dr. Lewis, please believe me– I am on a race here. Everytime I’ve been tempted, or had stupid cravings, I’ve told myself that I have a goal– and I"m not going to give up what I ultimately want for something that I just want ‘right now’.
The tea I drink is made by Celestial Seasonings, and it’s blueberry-flavored (0 calories). I LOVE it. I’m…[Read more]

Great! You do just what you’ve said above, with absolutely NO other ‘tastes’ of food, and by tomorrow you will already be down 2 pounds. The following day 4, then 6, then 8, etc. I’ve got my fingers crossed for you that you just ‘ignore’ the hunger that you will have (your fat breaking down), and just stick to the plan.

Al

All I’ve had so far today, is a few cups of hot tea (with just a few teaspoons of splenda), and 1 almond snickers bar. For dinner, I plan on having another almond snickers bar, and hopefully within the next few days I can finally get off of the same number on the scale!! LOL
