Good luck, SK!  Probably the best thing is to tell them you just aren’t feeling well, so you’ll have a couple of bites, but that’s it.  They really won’t care or remember how much you eat in a few days.  In general, we assume our relatives are more concerned with how much we eat than they actually are.  

Yes, I have learned that everyone is on a need to know basis about this diet. I would never hear the end of people saying oh my gosh you’re starving yourself. Funny thing is a woman at work had gastric bypass and to me that is so much more dangerous because of the risk of surgery infection etc.

Keep up the great work! We are all going to r…[Read more]

Best of luck! Yeah tell them whatever you need to in order to prevent them from tempting you. Remember, you won’t miss the food you don’t eat!! You won’t regret NOT eating, but you WILL regret breaking your commitment to yourself!

Also, imagine Dr. Lewis standing in the corner watching you.  What would you eat in front of him?

Day 2 was successful. Ate my 2 snicker bars for lunch and dinner. And then black coffee, green tea, and LaCroix the rest of the day. I did have my morning cup of joe with a tbs of heavy cream – but that was my only vice.

Is it bad to drink LaCroix during the day? Should I only be drinking water and coffee? Hmmm – hope this does not impede my…[Read more]

Hmmm. Still just another 1lb loss. I am not certain it is that time of month, since I am on depo-provera, but I have some light spotting. Maybe that is the culprit? Either way, I am going to adjust a few things. Going to try black coffee without the almond milk or sweetener, and see how that goes. I know in advance that I am going to have a diet…[Read more]

Ended up having half of this tonight.

LOL.  I haven’t been tucking away money like you suggested last year. But I am promising myself a European trip after it is all done. That, and a breast reduction and lift. Depending on how much that area shrinks or not during weight loss, it may be covered under health insurance though.  I am carrying a lot of fatty tissue there, always have  36…[Read more]

Great!  How are you going to spend your money, Rachel?

I love this Rachel! I actually made my chart today while I was at work. It’s very satisfying just to watch the countdown of the pounds go away. Thank you for these tips.

A few things I am doing to help me this time around with larger losses, including the tracking journal I posted above. Thought I would share:
1. Photo journaling every bite and sip that goes into my mouth other than plain water. If I don’t photograph it, it isn’t allowed in my mouth. 😂 I will post this collage daily in the slimming station for…[Read more]

Ok. I will get it caught up soon with some amazing numbers too. I am so excited to get this done. I keep myself distracted when I get a little nagging hunger with window shopping for the cute outfits I plan to wear soon.

Hi.  After week one, change that weight to reflect what you weigh on that day.  Same thing with week #2, etc.  Once a week is entered it can’t be deleted, but it can be changed.

Thanks! Yes – looking forward to my weekly weigh in on June 27. I hope that I am pleasantly surprised. It is Day2, 3:30 and I am starving. Drinking my black coffee and catching up on the videos for inspiration. Rachel76  – loved honesty and sense of humor on your video chat. You are very brave to put yourself out there. Hope your slaying your “Project”.

That is a perfect first day! Great job. 

Yay!!!! Good job. It isn’t easy at first, but it is now so much fun watching the scale move in the right direction.

Thanks for all the tips Letileti! And great picture! You look amazing!

Dr Lewis may have a way to reset it for you.
