Activity

Thank you Dr Lewis for all your encouragement! It helps more than you know.

Still, a great start.  But now that you’re feeling more comfortable with this diet, lets see what this next week brings with smaller bites!!!

I love, love, love that!!!

Me too!  

Awww, 6 pounds is still great!

Day 6

I worked a 10 hour shift at the restaurant. I am beyond exhausted. I ate 5 bites of a chicken taco at 9:30 am and a snickers at 1:45 pm.
I had so much energy and now I’m sitting on my couch just relaxing my body. I’m not hungry and I feel so good and powerful!

Great job!!!

Oh that’s great to hear.

There is nothing can change the fact we have control over what we eat at any given time.  All we need to think about is the present day.  I have started really journaling and it helps center me and calms me down.

I’m kind of anxious about the upcoming move, but that was one reason I started now so I can help with the p…[Read more]

Wow Sheila, that was very inspiring.  I was also starting to get discouraged because this past week has been challenging for me.  But reading what you wrote set me straight.  You are right, things don’t have to go perfectly.  When you fall down, you just need to get back up again, make the modifications you need and then keep going.  Thank you…[Read more]

Dear BK,

I have been where you are at. I have had so many starts and restarts.  I would justify why I could never do it, even after having a couple of really successful attempts.

Everything said here is exactly what to do to get your mindset right to do the diet.  I first heard about Dr. Lewis in 2012.  I was working in daycare, and lost 70 po…[Read more]

That’s okay, Dr. Lewis.  Next week I will be sitting in front of my computer.

Looking forward to next Monday

Sheila

Great!!

I agree with Dr Lewis, don’t give up and modify it the way he recommends. I think it’s genius to do it that way.

Sstroh

I’m so excited to see your weigh in tomorrow !!!

Today was the first time I felt full after 5 bites!! We can do this, my weigh in is Friday

Day 5

Another freaking awesome day for the books! 😁

I had my snickers before work and Mexican food for dinner. This is the first time I feel good and satisfied. I’m super stoked for tomorrow. 5 bites truly filled me up and I mean I felt physically stuffed after I ate.
I know it’s a slippery slope to eat real food in the first week.
Tomorrow wil…[Read more]

I’m sorry to hear that, too.   I don’t actually use bars or snickers myself because I just dislike the extreme sweetness / texture.  I prefer sticking with real food, so maybe that would work better for you?   Regardless, good luck.   It was nice having you here, and I hope you can either modify the 5-bite somehow or that your next approach will w…[Read more]

Glad the hunger is over for you, sstroh!   Good luck on the weight in tomorrow.  I’m sure you will see a fantastic loss! 

My bites at lunch today were smaller. It helped that I wasn’t so hungry. And the leftovers didn’t taste all that great.
