Happy Saturday!

123.6

It’s been a week that my eating has been back on track post-Thanksgiving. I slept great and feel great! Sometimes I don’t sleep as well on bars or little food.

My main focus is getting through the day and the weekend on my plan. I feel like today will be easy. I am now used to NOT eating till lunch and eating my 2 little…[Read more]

Thanks for the encouragement!! After 3 awesome days, I feel very strong today. I’m going to keep checking in though throughout the day just to keep my mind focused here.

I had a good NSV yesterday: I was able to wear my wedding ring again. My fingers had been too bloated before!

OMG, Amy.  If you haven’t been able to stick to a diet through the weekend in YEARS, then ABSOLUTELY do it this week!  If for no other reason but to say you actually stuck to a diet PERFECTLY through a weekend!  It’s just 2 days.  You can definitely do this!!

Neil–I’m curious, why the bump?  What did you eat?  How many bites?  Why?

We are on it and getting there at record speed!! Let’s go Sharon!!

Go get ’em sweet girl!! You are soo getting back to goal and maintenance.

You are going to do so well! I will be supporting you!! Reach out to me if you need.

Amy-

you are doing so extraordinarily well! I think it’s probably a good idea to have your husband glance at the book at some point. Maybe not right now maybe when you have a little more time under your belt. I would just gently put the book somewhere and say I left the book out for you no pressure to read it. You may want to understand what I…[Read more]

Great work everyone!!

I’ve been busy but on plan

Sharon- you’re right on. This is our journey and we have to take responsibility for our health and happiness. I used to want to make everybody feel comfortable and happy. I did that to my own detriment. I stopped doing that when I joined slimming  station five years ago. What I’ve realized is tha…[Read more]

The weekend is coming…I’m scared!  I haven’t stuck to any diet over the weekend in…years?  Before today is done, I’m going to write out my plan for the weekend and how I’m going to handle any eating situation that might come up.  I want to go into next Monday feeling like I conquered the world.  And hungry – I want to go into next Monday fee…[Read more]

Poppy – your husband sounds a lot like mine.  I have been telling him here and there this week about what I’m doing, and that I’ve joined an online group and will be doing zooms on Monday nights with the group.  He’s supportive, but I think there will be a time when he will have to read the book for himself to truly understand it.

My stomach g…[Read more]

Thank you Amy. Honestly with this crazy covid year , I am so grateful to be healthy and not have contracted covid 19 especially being a dental hygienist.
my health is everything and have had several wake up calls recently with my health. I am soooooo determined to reach my goal and then have the glorious maintenance period to play with over…[Read more]

Fantastic Amy. Well done. I feel the same with snickers. I love them.
when people see I keep choclate in the house they tell me their husband has to hide the chocolate. Those days are gone for me. I can have food around me now without binging and going crazy and getting rid of all the “ naughty food “ before I diet. No food is out of bounds wit…[Read more]

Fantastic Gayle. It is a good feeling to be busy as I was yesterday too. Food isn’t a problem as yiu are so busy with your time. I am also looking forward to the weekend to be productive , getting things dine, relaxing, watching a movie and being committed to five bite. Have a fabulous Friday Gayle xxxx

Ditto to what dr Lewis said. Not worth it Rachel. I look at all my yummy Christmas food I have from England as I cannot go home this year to see my brother and sister. I will nit touch a bite. I tell myself I can have it when at my goal. It will be my maintenance food. What a treat that will be. Same for you Rachel. I know I would get a bottle of…[Read more]

Keep solid, grouded mentally Neil. You are going down rapidly

remember this diet works soooooo fast if you execute like it is written. No extra bites. Yiu do whatever it takes Neil to be perfect. It is your body, your health , your choosing what yiu out in your mouth. No extra bites are worth it. We can choose whatever we want to eat , just five…[Read more]

Day two complete yesterday. I had a coffee and snickers for lunch and Then protein bar at dinner time. My husband queried why I wasn’t eating dinner and I replied back by saying I wasn’t hungry and this is all I want. Sooooo…… after eaten my bar ,my stomach started to gurgle really loud and wouldn’t stop. My husband then says why don’t you go…[Read more]
