I’m keeping my fingers crossed for you!

Hi SK!

Indeed … studies have shown (and of course, it varies from person to person) that in general when people are hotter they eat less.  For whatever reason (think about super hot days during the summer) when it’s stifling outside you simply aren’t as hungry.  Right?  Also, as your body gets warmer, you metabolism, by definition, in…[Read more]

I haven’t weighed myself yet so I won’t know until Monday. Hoping for a larger number!

Hi Bk, great job identifying your stress trigger and getting back on track at your next meal!
Numbing anxiety with food is something I can relate to as well.
Keep up the great work!  Sharon

I hear you Bk. One night, I ate about a pound of peanut m&m’s after I got into in an argument with my 12 year old.  It was such a silly fight. I think I was yelling at him about playing too much Fortnite and not concentrating on his online school work. I can just remember eating and eating until I stuffed down all of my anger and frustration. Af…[Read more]

Thanks Bk! I know that I am an emotional eater for sure. And lately, food has been my remedy. But no more excuses. Need to “fall forward”.

Last night went great. I ate more than 5 bites at lunch but I’m back on track with my second bar. Some life stress is making me just want to numb my anxiety with food.

Welcome back! Sounds like you know what to do! This is a crazy time and I definitely understand how weight can come back with all of this uncertainty.

Forgot to ask this question for Dr. Lewis – In  couple of old posts, you had mentioned that when we feel warmer, we tend to eat less.  Why is this? You had suggested to wear a sweater or a warm jacket around the house. Today I’m wearing a winter coat inside today – lolol! I need all the help I can get today on Day 1.

Fantastic!

Thanks Dr. Lewis! Always appreciate your support. Today is going great so far and I’m just trying to stay busy and away from the kitchen.

Great job!  The more you do this diet the more you realize you are getting everything you could possibly crave out of a tiny amount of food and the more you realize that large amounts of food are NEVER worth it.  Soon life becomes fun and exciting like never before as the importance of food becomes secondary to being fit and healthy.

Oh Yay!!  Sending you lots of support!  Sharon

Fantastic!!  Sending you support for another perfect day!  Sharon

Ending today right on track and it actually wasn’t too hard. I had a ton of energy!

Smart thinking! Good luck ahead

Brilliant.  Now the journey begins.  No excuses.  It’s going to be hard, but you have God working with you.
