I love that.  Right.  Today is the first day of the rest of your extraordinary new life.  Everything that has preceded today is behind you–part of your old past; it has nothing to do with the new you that you are about to become.  The New You begins today and begins 1 bar at a time.  Eat a bar, enjoy the bar, and then enjoy that knowledge that…[Read more]

You are perfectly on track.  This is so exciting!  And just think: already 4 days of this relatively short journey are already behind you!  4 of the hardest days are behind you!  This is getting good, but please don’t let off the gas pedal.  We want to FLY through the finish line before you do.  Great work!

Today has been a good one thus far. Day 4 for me, I started Friday so I could have the weekend to work through the tough part. Now it’s easier and I have work to distract me.

I’ll be having the same food, lunch and dinner, same volume. Lots of coffee, plenty of water.

I totally agree with you!!

Thank you!

I am with the “5 Bite Diet Warriors and More” FB group and “Every Bite Counts”, which I have seen you pop into occasionally. I really enjoy the Every Bite Counts group however in both it seems like things fizzle out (I am guilty of this as well). I’m thinking having the “pressure” of a doctor’s watch will keep me more accountable than…[Read more]

Awesome, Rachel!  Welcome!  I’m so happy you’re here!

Yes, we have been slow at the beginning of this year.  But you and I will start this season off on a bang!

Out of curiosity, which Facebook group are you involved in?  Why do you think they couldn’t help you hold yourself to account?

I look forward to your responses on the message I sent you…[Read more]

Great job, Gayle!  Honestly, doesn’t it feel great?  What amount of food–that you’ve already tasted–is better than that?!

Yes you are right dr Lewis. Will cut the vegetables out. Five bites x 2 a day. Had a perfect day today. Onwards and down I go. Thank you for a reality check

will be weighing in at the weekend

Well I got 118!! Now I am going to get to 116 and introduce more bites.

Can’t be on the call tonight but I can do it next Monday jan 19.

I am also exercising everyday and getting hardcore again. So so close!!

NO!!!  Why would you increase your bites to allow more bites of anything?  The extra bites of vegetables do nothing for you: you are already taking a multivitamin, and if you are looking for extra fiber, take metamucil.  But the carbon in those extra bites of vegetables become the exact same fat as if they were extra bites of bacon or pizza.  A…[Read more]

I am still here trying every day. Had to increase my bites to allow some bites of vegetables. Yes it may take me longer but weighed in today at 132. So have 12 pounds to lose and am trying very very hard. Staying mindful and strong every single day xxx hope you whoever reads this will join me for this amazing year ahead. Life is short  very short…[Read more]
