Activity

I weighed this morning: 194.4! So I lost almost 6 lbs.

My goal for next Sunday is 185!!! I can’t wait.

I have a sort of opposite story, that I heard today. It isn’t mine, it was in a documentary. It’s horrifying:

In Evansville, Indiana, formerly known as the fattest city in the USA, a woman lost her foot by simply stepping on it.

She had diabetes caused by obesity, and was stepping out of the tub and twisted or stepped on it wrong.…[Read more]

Today’s check in:

Lunch and supper were 1 Butterfinger bar each.

I weighed this morning and it said 195.6. So I have lost only 4.4 lbs so far, unless I lose a whole lot more overnight. I’m happy to be out of the 200s now though! It was such a funny feeling when I stepped on the scale the first time I got so low, I almost felt sad! lol!…[Read more]

I’m glad this article was published and that you found it.  It is absolutely the best way to lose weight, as I’ve been espousing for years!  But the general population will be slow to come around.

<p style=”text-align: left;”>Hi Wynona;</p>
As we all know, this is mostly a mind challenge. I have numerous thoughts that I have on loop in my brain. I play them over and over. My first three are as follows:

Firstly, I think about the number one reason I am shedding the weight. The health aspect. The extra fat is toxic and the extra bites I take…[Read more]

Great chat everyone!!

Here is an interesting article I read this morning:

We already know that fast weight loss is the best. But it’s neat to see some more professionals say the same!

Thank you Dr. Lewis!

YES!  Please adopt Rachel’s mantra!  It’s such a good one!!!

GREAT job, Skinny!  You are so right about food’s diminishing returns.  After the first few bites food is not all that it’s cracked up to be.    And great job last night!  You’ve so go this!!

Today’s check in:

Lunch was 1 Butterfinger bar.

Supper was 1 Butterfinger bar.

I ate 1 small bite of fruitcake also. Yep, tastes like I thought it would!

Then I had a hard time this evening NOT giving in since I had already cheated. But I made it! No more bites.

I drank 2 mugs of coffee, and I also had a glass of homemade…[Read more]

Rachel…Thanks for your simple yet powerful words of wisdom. I will try to remember them.

You can borrow my mantra Sean! “I am hungry but I am happy. Hunger is natural and means I am alive. Being full is unnatural.”

Hi Father Sean.  So, simply, you just start again.  You recognize that life is SO MUCH better in the thin lane, and that even though it’s fun to eat for eating’s sake, you want to be skinny much more than you want to put bite after bite of forgettable food in your mouth.  SO, commit to the program.  Plan out your five bites and execute those bit…[Read more]

No!  The Lewis Diet book was an experiment that we ran about 5 years ago.  You’ll have the correct book–with the yellow measuring tape on the front.

? I don’t know, I just found the website.   Dr Lewis will have to tell us!

We can do bars together! A bar challenge. If it would help you.

I haven’t lost anything either; this morning I weighed 197.6! I’m being perfect though and hoping for a drop.

Tonight we are going out with friends to go Christmas caroling and then play volleyball; but my plan is to eat my bar beforehand and not eat while there.

Day 9 of my reset

SW 176
CW 165.5

Zero loss this morning.   Yesterday I had 5 bites of falafel for lunch, and 5 bites of a vegan burrito bowl for dinner.  Pretty sodium and carb heavy maybe?  I will watch that on future bites.   I am considering bars for the rest of the week leading up to Christmas.

*I am hungry, but I am happy beca…[Read more]
