Nice work everyone!!

Beth – you’ve gotten your groove back!

Love the words of advice from Sharon!!

I’ll be back to you guys later. Today is an insane day back at work!!

I know, I just kept getting low blood sugars and when I would train I would run out of steam. So frustrating!! I did lose a couple more lbs before the race (I haven’t updated my chart yet) but its back because of my race and my monthly so I guess I will see how this week goes but I am ON THIS.

Today I am enjoying my black coffee and I have a bar…[Read more]

Downward progress! That’s a great result. It’s comforting to know that, IF I adhere to Dr. Lewis’s protocol, I WILL lose weight. He’s helped hundreds of people of all ages, sizes, and states of health to drop pounds. It may be five pounds, or 15 (I’m thinking of you, Mary) in a week, but the plan is so much quicker and more effective than anything…[Read more]

My first weekly weigh in down 5lbs!!! I’m pretty impressed since I only started Saturday!! Woot woot!! Happy biting friends :kiss:

I’m also still noticing what Gayle had mentioned as a detachment from other food. When I’m cooking for the family, it still looks and smells delicious, but the thought of eating it never even crosses my mind because it’s simply not my food.

I noticed this detachment occurring, too, and I do think that focusing on eating only…[Read more]

Another thought: My 21st anniversary is coming up on May 25th. Although we don’t usually do anything big, we’ll probably at least go out to dinner or something. So I’m going to use that date as a mini-motivator with an extremely realistic goal. I think I can be at or below 135 before then, so I am going to be looking forward to that reward!

I made it through two weeks of perfect bar days! Yay!! This morning was my weigh-in, and I’ve lost 4 pounds this week. Again, yay!!

As of right now, I still have no specific plan for transitioning out of bars. And I definitely won’t make any changes unless I have a specific plan ahead of time! So bars again for today . . .

I feel that one…[Read more]

Thank you I love that you’re proving your friend wrong about losing weight! You’re doing great! When your friend sees you at your goal weight, she’ll be blown away and be asking you all kinds of questions about how you did it. No matter how long it takes you’ll make it. I love your positive attitude

Thank you, Beth! I’m glad you’re back and fighting the good fight. A “friend” told me that I’d never lose the excess weight, because at our age, it’s just too hard. I told her that I will never give up. It may take a little longer than it did when I was in my twenties, but I know I can do it. Best wishes to you, Beth!

Way to go! I love your attitude you’ll get there soon enough

Finished my last snickers for the day and I am pumped to have my first weekly weigh in tomorrow morning! I know it’s going to be good

Thank you, Smaro, Chrissa, and Dr. Lewis! I do feel changed, even with a modest loss on the scale. I’m doing a fair bit of resistance training, and I like feeling muscle where there was a certain “softness.” I’ll keep pecking away at it. I’ve given myself all year. Let’s keep up the great work of transformation!

So very true! Thank you so much Sharonmarie :kiss: I’ve been the same way with yoyo dieting and even with the five bite and allowing myself to fall into the same pitfalls. There are no excuses just poor choices on my behalf, but now I’m back at it and will once again see it all the way, but this time I will not trade the finished result ~ it just…[Read more]

You will do brilliantly getting back on track, staying focused, and losing fast!! Remember your perfect week of nothing but bars? You have proven your strength and determination!! You can do this! :cheer:

Always remember remember Beth food is so destructive in what it does
To our health , our mind and our wellbeing. It
Just is not Worth it. Have been out with my in laws and family in Pittsburgh for my nephews graduation and I took bites of Food and bought my food back for others to eat. I feel great and satisfied. Food Has just lost its appeal For…[Read more]

Yes, I hope the race goes well and that you exceed your expectations! :cheer:

Great job, Socal! And I love your plan!! :cheer:

Thank you, Smaro and Gayle!!

And “yay for us!”, Smaro. Now we know that we’re among the strong ones! WE CAN DO THIS!!

I’ve been all over the place the past 3 days with a full schedule which was already planned in addition to lots of unexpected craziness. But I have stayed perfectly on track with my 2 bars a day.

Tomorrow is the last day of…[Read more]

Indeed, great work Socal! You are just that much closer to the finish line.

Smart, what do you do when you get hungry in between meals?
