Activity

I’m looking forward to just being able to buy womens clothes, not mens clothes. That is going to be a huge relieve to me.

We had this Dr.John tickell in Australia that created “The Great Australian Diet”. He promoted the diet as the healthiest way to live based on Okanawans, Japan, being the longest living people. But he ended up getting brain…[Read more]

As someone who hates being told what I can and can’t eat and watching people really struggle to stay on alternative diets, myself included came to the conclusion that something is wrong. Everyone is still getting fatter in Australia and the government runs these campaigns to get kids and adults to move more to get healthier. And I really struggled…[Read more]

That’s it.  I’ve been doing this for a lot of years.  Untangle the confusion: it’s very simple.  Carbon, by weight, in vs. carbon, by weight, out.  But let’s make it even simpler: 5 bites twice a day.  It guarantees that your carbon intake is minimal, it guarantees that you will be full all the time (after the third day), and it doesn’t limit you…[Read more]

When you are on your cruise you will be inundated with food–and it’s free!  SO, be super aware of this fact, and try and have JUST ONE BITE of each item you want to taste.  Order a burger, have one bite, throw the rest away.  Try the fries–one bite–throw the rest away.  I STRONGLY recommend the sit-down dinners; not the buffets.  The food is b…[Read more]

I haven’t posted in awhile or followed the 5 bite plan. I’m back up to 162lbs. Feeling very defeated.

The more I study various diets the more lost I become. I’ve read about fasting and calories in calories out, low carb high fat, Atkins, Dr Jason Fung Obesity Code, anti inflammatory diet, boosting metabolic, how eating too little destroys your…[Read more]

We are definitely all in this together!  

Lynda
Thank you so much! I so understand The Filipino pot luck and the boss situation I’m the leader in my department and I work in a hospital with many Filipino friends and we seem to be running a special on baby showers at work in every department. I do better believe it or not in that environment at work( I have figured it out for my work s…[Read more]

Day 37

Breakfast was a strudel pastry

Lunch was a Snickers bar

All 5 bites.

I feel good! I like having a little flexibility, being able to have breakfast every once in a while with my girlfriend. It also makes for a larger fasting period the next day since I won’t eat again until lunch. It comes off the same. I am so busy with other…[Read more]

In 2 weeks you won’t give a damn if the feeder brings home 3 pizzas. You’ll have 5 bites and be done with it. You are only a few days away from setting your hunger stat. And you won’t want to overeat.

Hi NeedingThis,

If you can start the diet in your own space. Get some nice zero calorie drinks available. Get some snickers (if you are in a position where you can’t focus) and arm yourself with responses on why you are not feasting anymore. My challenge will be at the Filipino pot luck parties where there will be 3 women force feeding me because…[Read more]

GREAT!  Ask yourself those questions before you take your first bite.  All of a sudden the extra bites will lose their appeal.  Eating perfectly is so much tastier and filling than just eating more bites.

Insight: So today I’m going to ask myself anytime I’m around food. Will I regret this? Will I remember this in 3 days? My new mantra!

Nice Lynda! Keep pushing! i love before and after pictures of people losing weight, so vicariously gratifying. Can’t wait to do one myself too.

Hi Rachel! Wow i feel like we have gone through similar journeys. I too had gotten up to about 183 and resolved to change, dropped to 173 and then knew i needed some community support to continue.

Oh and I was doing the same thing!: eating a high volume vegan diet which did not serve me well.

I also have gotten deeply into meditation practice…[Read more]

I’ve had 4 days off with the feeder. ( The husband) For now that’s 4 days to many. He’s self employed so he takes off when I have the days off. Today is our last day together. It’s been a disaster for food. No lie he’s ordered pizza to be delivered 3 times in a week ( no lie) I’m really angry. Of course I caved. I feel like I’ve put back on e…[Read more]

Hi Rachel!

So you took the first big leap and came here.  GREAT!  Now, can you take the next big leap forward?  Can you eat NOTHING but a Snickers bar, twice a day, water and coffee, for a whole week?  It will challenge your constitution, but the reward is extraordinary.  So, what do you think?  

I LOVE it!!  

Day 36

topping up. it’s impossible to eat “normally”. That is, I cannot physically eat more than 1/3 of what I used to eat on a daily basis, which caused me to be overweight. I was initially worried about having this “top up day” because I thought it would hinder my progress but I am down another 5 lbs this week to 151. So I am just keeping with…[Read more]

So, I’m down another 6 pounds again. Didn’t think I could keep this pace up, but so far, so good. I don’t want to be doing 5 bites forever, so I’m racing to the finish line. I’m looking forward to being slim this summer. Our summers are really hot, so I’m hoping to feel a lot more comfortable in the heat. I promise to post a before and after shot…[Read more]
