Activity

Brilliant.  The first day’s the hardest.  And come tomorrow (probably when you read this) you will already feel SO MUCH better.  You’ll feel really good–a whole lot better than food today would have made you feel!

But on the other hand, THIS Thursday is going to be different.  Frankly, it’s exciting!!   I can’t wait!!

Day one done ✅ stuck with bars and lots and lots of coffee. Feels good and I already feel lighter. Definitely a couple moments of dizziness but not too bad. Excited to knock out another day tomorrow. Trying to focus on getting a big loss for my first week weigh in. Hoping that will really help motivate me not to fall backwards.

You can make it Rachel! I definitely understand how hard it can be. I too always find it so hard to make it even a week. Excited to see you tackle it!

I had a good day again yesterday.  The closer I get to Thursday the harder these feelings are to fight.  Ug.

Awesome work!

Thanks for the encouragement! I appreciate it! You are a great example of how to be successful long term.

Go for it!! The longer you stay on track the easier it gets. It’s worth the investment in yourself and the small sacrifices.

Thank YOU Dr Lewis!!

headed for 115 before vacay on Saturday. Hoping to be more reasonable than past vacations.

Definitely going to stick with bars for the first week! I need to follow the plan this time and not make small allowances.

Welcome back!  You are in the right place, and we are all here to support you.  OK.  The race starts today.  PLEASE start off your first week by eating only bars and let’s set your hungers precisely.  Is that OK with you?

Yes!!   Eating small amounts is special and does make you feel amazing afterwards.  I guess it’s sort of like a runner’s high.  (And believe me, I know.  I’ve logged many hundreds of miles running around Southern California.)  When you start off running, it’s not fun or even comfortable, but you do it, in part, for that amazing feeling that…[Read more]

Thanks so much for joining us tonight, Gayle!  You are such and inspiration and remind us of what living an exceptional life looks like!

Another great pep talk last night!

I am definitely struggling with a wall that hits me on Thursdays, usually after 3 days of success on the plan.  Thanks for all the tips tonight from Gayle and Dr. L!  We will get me over this wall this week, and through my first perfectly on plan week on 5BD (after years of being off and on plan, ug). :h…[Read more]

Hi I Got this!!

Excited to have you back in the group! We have all been in that place where we lose focus. Important thing to remember is that you have done it before and WILL do it again. Let’s go!!

Happy Monday! Made it through the weekend and feeling great. I was going to skip bars today but feeling like food is NOT important today. Getting to my low goal before vacation is what I want to do. I will have earned my vacation indulgent meals. I know that I will return with then need to diet but hopefully less so as I am…[Read more]

Welcome back!  That is a nice drop your first few days.  See you tonight!

thanks!

Welcome back!

There isn’t a simple button you can push to reset it, but this is what you can do:

Change the weights for weeks 1-5 to your current weight.  Then, as the weeks tick by, adjust 2-5, then 3-5, then 4-5 (etc) to your updated weight for that week.  After 5 weeks you’ll be all caught up.  OK?
