HI spider…

How are you doing?… I guess the freedom to eat bites of any kind of food feels like freedom. I remember telling me “I CAN EAT ANYTHING I WANT” as a mantra, when someone ask me about the diet, I said that, I just didn’t told them JUST A COUPLE OF BITES. 😂 …

let us know how are you doing… 5 days out of 8 it’s not bad, I guess…[Read more]

@beclean yeah some of those phrases like “it’s only food” land well with me when I’m really in the groove, but other times not so much. The better I do with this diet, the more certain phrases like that act as little helpful reminders.

I have been off track a bit, I would say I was only on track for about 5 out of the last 8 days. And that has…[Read more]

Yes “spiderchlome”

I haven’t read all the thread, but I LOVED the last words “it’s only food” GOD, it’s so true, and the terrible side effects it has done in my life. I guess we need to  get few life experiences before we take it seriously. I did it few years ago and lot 55 pounds, yet I didn’t follow through to the finish line, (regardless…[Read more]

Yes, great explanation…

I love the part where the bites keep the GI track functioning, because in the past, out of my desperation to lose the weight fast, I have gone into juice fasting or water fasting, and it was a disaster once you try to “wake up” the intestine. It was painful. I went into a juice fast of 75 days, where at the end I was…[Read more]

Such a great explanation. Thank you!

SCS,

You cannot plateau on 5 bites twice a day.  It’s 4 oz of food, which is simply not enough material to keep even the slowest metabolisms from needing to break down fat.  Again, for those in the 200 lb range, they lose roughly 3 pounds of carbon a day through breathing.  So 4 oz in for them is still a net loss of 2.5 pounds a day, more or le…[Read more]

Still trucking but with a few bumps in the road. I just got access back to the forums and the videos and it helps a lot to go back and watch how I described my experience last year. It helps put me in the mindset to continue. Good luck everybody with this weekend. It’s just food!

I am thrilled that plateauing isn’t a big issue on the 5-Bite Diet. Yeah!

poppycat and lasalleop

I love the word from poppycat be a perfect five biter…🤓

lasalleop, write it here every morning, I will be watching, given that the updates are weekly on the weight tracking, we don’t get to share our half pound or one pound weight loss, but write it here, it’s a HUGE milestone… I normally lose like half of half pound a…[Read more]

Dear SCS

The beauty about this diet is that you don’t stop loosing weight. (as far as my own experience went) and believe me, my metabolism is very efficient (like dr. lewis likes to call it in a positive note 😂 ). The Diet Coke didn’t make me plateau, it was more the slow metabolism I have that it was so slow the rhythm at witch I was losing…[Read more]

Well this is crazy, for anyone that is struggling with losing weight slowly…

I put on two sweaters and a jacket, double pants, double socks and a winter hat. I didn’t change anythings else in my routine, witch is (two bites once a day at 5:oopm, coffee, water, centrum vitamin and not moving, I don’t do any exercise). So I just added the clothe,…[Read more]

Awwww my!!! How exciting !!!! Have a super weekend and wishing you focus, strength and determination to be a  perfect five biter

Got it!!

Fine.  Honestly, drinking a Coke Zero daily will NEVER allow you to plateau, but eating too much will.  Have a Coke Zero every day, but stick to 5 bites twice a day as well as you can.  The results are dramatic and exciting.

Yes!!!  Let’s GO!!!

Hi Beclean,

Thanks for the tip about the Diet Coke related to plateauing. I have a very sluggish metabolism and I usually plateau on diets eventually. I actually gave up diet soda and all artificial sweeteners for about 10 years, but I got pulled back in to Coke Zero during the covid months. Now I am “using” it as a way to get through the first…[Read more]

beclean, Thanks for your kind words and support. I know,  even is I haven’t always acted like I should, that sharing your story is essential.  Ergo, as I head to the Finishing Lane and cross the Finish Line of 150 lbs, you will see regular updates.  I will admit that I am very excited by what I saw this morning. I know that you will find great jo…[Read more]

Hi lasalleop

Wow, what a story, very motivating for me, I am just starting again, but anything the scale shows lower than the previous time is a MAJOR milestone for me right now. So I can relate when the scale shows some amazing new number isn’t it… So happy for you, hope you keep letting us know your progress because it motivates me so much to…[Read more]

Hi scs,

I am starting again so I hope we become buddies in this journey. I did the diet many years ago and I lost like 55 pounds or so. But in my case, the “taste” of sugar, like a Diet Coke, or like some teas, will trigger my system to think I’m eating… it was horrible because like you, I loved the treat of a Diet Coke to make it easier. I…[Read more]

Wow, Ok…

WARM: I will start with the warm self, I didn’t know that, amazing new information, it makes sense plus I am always cold so I will add all those tips .

EXERCISE:  I don’t do anything, so Yes I will start today adding the treadmill. I guess you are right when you are hungry, it equals as if I had done tons of exercise but…[Read more]
