Heck no! I don’t want to go through that gut wrenching hunger ever again!

Soooo much better. Day 5 was a struggle but Day 6 was better and today I have barely been hungry. Excited for my week one weigh in tomorrow. Hoping to be down a bowling ball

Don’t give up on the diet–or it’s structure–just yet.  If five bites just simply won’t work for you, how about 15 bites?  Can you do that?  The key–for you–is that you find a way to consistently take in less material than what your body naturally uses up, and to do it in a way that is sustainable.  I fear that if you don’t stick to a str…[Read more]

Perfect, Sstroh!  I’m so excited for you!  You’ve done it!  You are here!  Now PLEASE heed my advice: don’t EVER change the volume you eat until you fully cross the finish line.  You just don’t want to have to reset your hungerstat.  Admittedly, it’s easier the second time, but why go there?

Sorry, Sheila.  It was a great chat, but once again my file became corrupted in processing, so I can use it.

Good discovery!  Because 5 bites is so little food, why not go all the way and eat just the volume that I’m asking?  Even though your bites will be smaller, they will taste the same and your enjoyment of those bites will be the same.  So start today!

Fair enough.  Things should set soon.  How do you feel today?

Sorry to hear that! Have you ever tried Weight Watchers? It’s a great program but it takes alot longer to lose the weight. Which is why I switched to the 5BD. I wanted to see results fast.

Well I am done with the diet. I have been doing this diet off and on for two years now and it just never sticks. I just end up in a restrictive cycle of three days bars 4 days binge. Then I feel guilty that I can’t stick to it. I would rather eat a bit more and actually stick to something for a week and lose weight slower. Good luck to everybody o…[Read more]

It’s like night and day. I just had lunch and easily stopped at 5 bites. Make that 4 bites of lunch and one bite of a Snickers

Please come next time, Queenester!!  I would love to meet you in Zoom.

Sincerely,

Sheila

That’s a good question.  I bet it would work great as an appetite suppressant.

I’m on day 3, and it does in fact get easier.

I’m glad you are noticing this too.

It just gets better from here!

As Dr. Lewis has told me before, there will be ups and downs on this plan.  Hang in there, Becky.   I know it’s discouraging when it feels like you are going backwards.  But if you keep trying, things will click.

I did the same thing today. I cut a Snickers bar into five pieces and quickly realized my bite sizes are way too big

My bite sizes are definitely consistent. They are probably too large however they are consistent 😎

Music to my ears!  Congrats!!

OMG!!! I’m so pissed I missed the Zoom chat. 😭😭

I totally forgot about it!

I am here in Zoom

yes!
