I’m trying out different thoughts to convince me to want to push food away from now on.

-Pushing some of the food on my plate away is something that I’m learning to do with ease.

-I’m moving some of the food on my plate to the compost bin so that the atoms in the food can play a part in that circle of life.

-I’m sending some of…[Read more]

Ok! I will begin practicing my push-food-away muscles!

I’ve had a moderate lunch, and it was easily done.

I’m staying in my food volume lane.

Lunch was 25 bites of this and that, similar to breakfast.

I ate it all in three minutes, without pushing any of it away.

At the moment I’m unwilling not to eat everything that’s on my plate.

Before lunch my weight was 53.4 kg / 117.7 lbs /…[Read more]

I’ve had a moderate breakfast of 25 bites (250 g).

(That’s moderate to me, compared to my over-eating meals).

My pre-breakfast weight was 53.3 kg / 117.5 lbs / 17.8 bmi.

My post-breakfast weight was 53.6 kg / 118.2 lbs / 17.9 bmi.

I had 8b bread, 12b pancakes, 2b mac&cheese, 2b jam, 1/2b cottage cheese, and 1/2b of…[Read more]

This morning my weight had dropped a little bit: 53.2 kg / 117.3 lbs / 17.8 bmi.

I’ll stick to my last meal volume for breakfast and lunch today and see if I can find a baseline.

My mistake yesterday was that I basically had two meals and then some for my breakfast meal.

Course correction took place at lunch luckily, and now I’ll…[Read more]

I’m excited to be here with you all!

Today is day 2.

Yesterday went great, I had a Butterfinger bar for lunch and then another for supper, black coffee, zero calorie drinks, and gum.

Today was exactly the same. I’m happy to be jumping right in!

Today was a long day! I had to drive…[Read more]

I’m doing snickers as well.  Best way to reset!

Let’s go!!

Sharlet – do you really have only 8Ibs to go – this is amazing!!!  You have done so well

Congratulations!!

I had a smaller lunch compared to breakfast, and I feel better for it. I feel calmer and happier.

I had 1 bite of green peas, 10 bites of chicken, 10 bites of cottage cheese, a smaller slice (3 bites) of bread, and 1 bite of a chocolate bar. All in all 25 bites. Nowadays my bite is around 10 ml / 2 teaspoons.

I was curious to know…[Read more]

📣‼️🚺

Welcome!

Ali & Jane say welcome back. Sorry your a new name to me, hope to see ya on Zoom.

You got this!

📣 cheering you on from the last frontier🚀💫🌟✨🌌🌠

I’m doing better today than yesterday, so far. I’ve had a measured and protein rich breakfast of green peas, cottage cheese, and chicken breast, along with a half of a chocolate bar.

That’s pretty good for being me at this point in time. I’m not hungry at all now. I’ll have the same for lunch.

This morning my we…[Read more]

I’m doing better today than yesterday so far.

I’m on day 3

Feeling happier this morning. Stomach is already looking a lot better. I predict 135lb but could be even less.

13/04 137 ✅
14/04 136 ✅
15/04 135

Just focusing on keeping this going.

Good luck everyone 🍀

Especially when we’re in a stressful situation.

I’ve come up with another idea to test tomorrow:

I’ll experiment again with regular food, and avoid the more alluring food choices.

Bread seems to be too challenging for me at the moment, for example.

I’ll make a small meal of green peas, cottage cheese, and chicken.

Sort of a…[Read more]

Good job coming back!

I’ve dabbled in the 5 bite diet off and on throughout the last 10 years, but I’ve never lost all the weight or stuck to the program for long.

I’m back up close to my highest weight, and I’m ready for a fresh start.

Thank you for the the video chat recording.

The discussion on feeling uncomfortable after eating too much (even if it’s a small volume) hit home with me today.

I most definitly have a similar sensation tonight: bloated, stuffed, and regretting my choices from earlier today.

And that’s on no…[Read more]

It’s nine hours after lunch, and my tummy is still feeling stuffed.

I definitly ate too much today.
I will remember this feeling.
Tomorrow I’ll take a break from food, and have a snickers bar for my breakfast and lunch instead.
No food in the fridge is worth feeling stuffed for.
I’d rather let the food go bad and toss it.

I wan…[Read more]

Lunch arrived and disappeared.

I ate quite a bit at lunch, and even so, my weight is lower today than yesterday.

My weight before lunch today was 53.4 kg / 117.7 lbs / 17.8 bmi.

My weight after lunch today was 54.1 kg / 119.3 lbs / 18.1 bmi.

Now it’s six hours after lunch and my weight is 53.7 kg / 118.4 lbs  / 17.9 bmi.

My weight had dropped again this morning to 52.7 kg / 116.2 lbs / 17.6 bmi.

That’s a bigger drop than I had anticipated.

I had a moderate breakfast of bread and mac&cheese as planned.

Then I wanted more to eat, and I ate more. Quite a lot more!

I had yoghurt and frosties, chocolate, a coconut cookie, and a second…[Read more]

I’ve had lunch, and that’s that for today.

I’ve got my notebook planned out for the next few days, which helps me focus.

Now all I have to do until tomorrow is nothing! Also known as waiting.

I have work in the afternoon which will help distract me from thinking about myself too much.

The grilled sandwich weighed 97 grams (104 g…[Read more]

Hope you’re all having a great start to the week.

I’ve just weighed-in after the weekend and I am still 137 Ibs.

I want to speed things up and I have put my scales away and will do my best not to weigh-in until the 10th May.

Snickers twice a day from now until then and I should be done!  Can it really be this easy?  Let’s find o…[Read more]

Today I’m tackling two of my biggest over-eating-friendly foods:

bread, and mac&cheese!

I’ve had one such meal for breakfast just now.

I put two slices of bread with mac&cheese inbetween in the waffle maker, and that was breakfast.

I’ll have the same for lunch, and then fast until tomorrow morning.

I can practice portion…[Read more]

This morning my weight was down a little bit again.

Yesterday morning it was 55.6 kg / 122.6 lbs / 18.6 bmi

and this morning it was 54.8 kg / 120.8 / 18.3 bmi.

All the best until next time.

I’m waiting this out now.

I’ve had three reese’s cups for brunch.

A few too many, and it was the best I could do.

I’m enjoying the calm of being back at home.

All the best to us all until next time.

Big push until then

I ate much more today than recommended.
It’s ok – I know that with time and eating less my weight will sort itself out again.
All the best until next time!
