Activity

It depends a bit on how heavy you are when you start, I’m not obese but I have managed to loose around 10 pound in a week, I have not tried to do it perfectly for a month, if I had then I probably would have lost too much weight, I believe I read a post on the forum, about someone who lost 20 pounds in one week, so let’s just get going 

I did ok’ish, I did have a few days where I ate normal because we were invited out, but I still lost a bit of weight which is ok, because normally I would have gained a lot in a weekend like that, so any loss is great for me

Thank you! I’m all in. I have started and restarted a few times, but I am determined to see this through. I re-read the book and I am mentally ready this time. 

Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter! Excited that today is back to a regular routine around here and there is no one around to try tempt me with food. I had a pretty great first week back. My plan for today is a cup of tea in the morning, snickers for lunch and snickers for dinner. How did everyone do over Easter weekend?

Welcome , Yes you should be avle to loose 30 pounds in one month if you stay committed, maybe even more depending on your starting weight 

Thanks 

Feel better soon Pia

I have just finished reading Madeleines journal, great reading, I wish there was more, her determination to get skinny and stay skinny is really inspiring

Right on, Pia!  I do hope you feel better, but you are right: Use this opportunity to be perfect, as the food won’t taste very good anyway.

Today I have a cold, but I have decided to turn it into something good, the food is not going to taste or smell as good as it usually does so why eat more of it, it is not going to be satisfying me, so I can just have my 5 bites x2, more is not going to do anything for me.

For lunch I weighed out 56g, just to keep my bites under control, 56g of…[Read more]

How are you doing Beth, are you still hanging on, I’ve been a bit up and down, but I’m determined not to give up!

Thanks letileti, that’s a great way to think of it, when I do eat more than I intended I really don’t think it’s the hunger driving me, it’s probably more the act of eating I feel it last to short I just want to enjoy it for a little longer, food is just so satisfying, but I want to fight this battle and learn to control my portions, so I can be…[Read more]

Pia sometimes I think at every single bite as it was a “medicine”.

I tell myself that if I am depressed I need to use food as a drug and treat myself with little bites.

I think at bites as they were pills, so I do not need anymore.

One bite of an apple to get all the vitamins my body needs. One ☝️ of protein and 1 of carb. 1 nut to have fats.…[Read more]
