Awesome! Happy Passover!  I had 2 perfect fasting days Thursday and Yesterday. I am fitting in jeans that did not fit on 3/29! I tried these on when packing for vacation and couldn’t button them.

Soon they will loose!! 

Nice to have you here:) It really does help to have other people doing the diet with you I think.  Be sure to check out the archived chats.  They are great for helping to keep you focused.  You got this!!!

Perfect day #10 keto coffee for lunch and for Passover dinner I had 3 bites of lamb and 2 bites of salad then 5 sips of wine

Forgot to check in last night.  Perfect day #8 yesterday.  York peppermint for lunch and snickers for dinner.
Today was perfect day #9.  It was my birthday today  My co-workers gave me a bag full of thoughtful gifts.  Including a dark chocolate bar with espresso beans, one of my favorite flavor combos:)  So I had 1oz of that for lunch.  It w…[Read more]

Sounds like a good plan.  Now focus on your right foot.  Carefully place it in front of the left foot.  Now concentrate on the left foot.  Carefully place it in front of the right.  Repeat … until you cross the finish line!  

I weighed in today and only lost 1 pound this week. I only got on the scale once about halfway through the week. I know I lost the pound somewhere between Thursday and Saturday. I then maintained my weight Saturday, Sunday and Monday as those were the days when I had a bunch of celebratory stuff going on …lots of food Temptations. I was really…[Read more]

Amy, It was a great exercise! I would recommend it to anyone here.

I picked my Top 20. There are so many more reasons to NOT take the extra bites. I feel like when I do take extra bites it has to be some sort of temporary insanity!!   

Right!!!  If you truly want to prevent heart attacks, strokes, kidney decline, memory loss, and CANCER, you have to shoot for a low BMI.  And there are so many other benefits of being there.  

Came back from vacation at exactly the same weight I was coming in! I was hoping to be down a little but that’s okay. I am another half lb down today at 172.5. This just goes to show how easily I could have gained weight as I would have eaten a lot more if I wasn’t counting bites.

Wow, I love this Susan!  I’ll be referring to your list often.  I’m going to make my own list soon and will be sure to share on here.  Busy day at work today and tomorrow.  But maybe by Friday I can take some time to really think of as many reasons as I can and jot them all down.  It will be a good exercise for me to do

“You have to start finding reasons to NOT eat the extra bites, instead of making excuses to take the extra bites.”  – Dr. Lewis

1. It is only temporary satisfaction.

2. It will make me  bloated, sleepy and depressed.

3. Four years ago,  I decided to stop this monster who was asking…[Read more]

That’s true doc! After all its just food and this is for my health and hopefully adds many more years of life onto my lifespan.  And good quality life at that.

Thanks a bunch Susan! It’s so nice to have people to do this with.  Glad you had a good weekend and happy to know you will be logging in a perfect day today!!!:):):)

The carbon-rich drinks set you back a bit.  No biggy.  Just pick up today and follow the program perfectly.  Your hungerstat will reset really fast.  

Right, Amy!  What food, or amount of food, is better than the road you are on?!
