Activity

So excited for you Rachael. Your determination is inspiring!

Good luck Mel!  Looking forward to seeing you in a few weeks.  In the mean time, consider adding some fiber, B12 and Vitamin D supplements to your regimen.  It has really helped me with low energy since I went vegetarian many moons ago.  I notice a significant difference when I forget them, especially when I am on 5BD.

Awesome job everyone!  I had a good first day of the challenge (putting the weekend mistakes behind me).  Woke up this morning without any hunger!

For me though, the 3/4pm hunger witch is what gets me off track.  Planning to brew a pot of coffee around then, and just keep drinking until dinner time comes around.

Looking forward to watching the replay!  I have class on Monday/Tuesday nights, through the first week of December.

Thanks all.  I had a rough weekend, with parties and family gatherings.  I managed a 2 pound loss at the end of the week.  Still trying to stick to bars, and managed to do pretty well yesterday.  Ready for a perfect week!

Good luck Mel!! Have fun!!

How are you today Rachel? Thinking about you!! Cheering for you!!

Day 2!

Slept well and slept late. I love these kinds of mornings. The next few days require early wake-ups.  Today will be an easy day!!!
Sharon- glad you had a great day. You are doing so well and are such an inspiration.I love the idea of a bath. It’s getting chilly here and that would be a wonderful evening ritual. I also have a lovely st…[Read more]

You are all doing so well!  Yay!

Day 1 was yesterday and I did great! My plan to avoid the kitchen is working so far! I work from home so you may see my dilemma. The fridge and I are old frenemies. LOL.

Poppycat your upcoming trip sounds wonderful.  I love England, but I’ve never been to Norway.  The next 6 weeks will go well I’m sure!

Thank you everyone, and for the advice.  I will return November 25th.  I’m trying to prepare for my long lost best friend’s  visit, (Long story.

Bar 2 done at 7:40 pm. Day 1 is a success!!

It’s always great to get a session with the master! He always motivates me. Going to kill it this week. it’s so important to get a grip before all the holiday madness.

I never regret putting in the time to get skinny and healthy. As Dr Lewis says – skinny is the healthiest thing we can do for our bodies. I miss being on top of my game.

Sorry, unable to make it tonight, but I’ll watch the replay.  I will be available next Monday night! Hope it goes well

Bar 1 done. Had w americano. Delicious and satisfying. Something about eating it slowly and mindfully.

no more food till dinner bar

Love that idea Carmel! My home is pretty safe with less tempting food. My trigger would be going to the market. I have a ton of bars in the house from the last time I wanted to do the challenge. I know that we are all where we are supposed to be but I can’t help thinking that if I had committed fully a couple of weeks ago that I would be at the l…[Read more]
