How great does a perfect day feel? You put your head down on your pillow at night feeling at peace. And you wake up in the morning and spring out of bed with a feeling like you can do anything!!

I love it!!

Yes. Right now I have loose skin because there is still fat under my skin pulling it down. That will go away as I get to 115. It already looks better than it did.

Actually, let me tell you the “Saggy Skin Story”.  LOL.

My husband and I go on vacation with another couple. Tina is obese and  always (like myself) struggling with weight issue…[Read more]

Yes, tell some more stories! I can’t wait!

Wow! That is amazing! That sounds so fun.

Did you have any loose skin to deal with? So many ‘experts’ say that losing a lot of weight leaves behind baggy skin. But I read what Dr Lewis said in his book, that if you go all the way and lose enough weight that you won’t have any.

Hi Skinny! <—get used to hearing that!!

It is a dream come true!! I have had “lose weight “ on my check list for 40 years! Now it’s all but gone!

I have to tell you my “Runway Dress Story”!

I was out shopping for a dress. I found the perfect dress size 2! I held it up and thought “this might actually fit me”. Can you imagine me tryi…[Read more]

Yay Susan!!!

I still have a lot to lose, but hearing you talk about being so low and aiming for lower- is getting me excited! You can do this! I can do this! We can all do this!

It’s so awesome that you are back here and going strong! I was really inspired when I first started, and right about that time…[Read more]

I love that, Skinny!

That’s really awesome, Apriljean! I was not on track today. But starting right now, I’m going to just keep being perfect, not eating until tomorrow lunch! I hope you have a wonderful evening.

Yes, crazy time to do this but my game plan is do it when I have nothing planned like parties and such.. and splurge when the parties come! Just started today, did this few years ago. Today went well, surprised 5 bites curbed my appetite.

Hello, and Welcome! Wynona and Apriljean!

I’m excited for you too! Are you just starting out, or have you been 5 biting for a few days?

I have been off track since Thanksgiving, as you may have guessed from reading the forums. I’m going to restart and be perfect again, beginning tomorrow morning.

This feels like a crazy time of…[Read more]

Well, the past couple of days I have not been perfect… But I think I’ve made progress. I have been eating more bites than 5, but less bites than I’m “hungry” for. I really mean it now… Tomorrow I want to be perfect!

I had a thought, I may not feel like I ‘need’ to lose the weight so quickly, and therefore I’ve been excusing myself eating…[Read more]

Hello! Good luck!!

Welcome!  I am excited too!

Right.  Again, I recommend getting started with just Snickers to ensure that your hungerstat is set precisely, then venture into 5 bites of regular food.  Start fresh tomorrow. Remember:  eating PERFECTLY is so much more filling that eating a lot of food.  Your go-to should be coffee or water, if you must venture into the kitchen.  But NO FOOD…[Read more]

Hi Sean!  No doubt: Your body would function at it’s best at a weight of around 140 (maybe even lower!!).  That should be our goal.  Is that goal too ambitious?  I don’t think so, but you do have to get comfortable once again with eating just 5 bites.  Treat each meal as a religious cleansing–a near-fasting experience that gives your body and…[Read more]
