Hello everyone! It’s been 4 days since I last posted but I was sick and super busy -what a luck – Anyway, my bronchitis episode is getting better and I feel great because I generally did good all those days. I was between 5-7 bites for lunch and dinner. I ate a bit more yesterday night at my nephews birthday party. The buffet was awesome. But…[Read more]

I have come to this conclusion. Falling off the wagon is inevitable. Life happens. Problems happen. The crucial point is this. Get right back on track as fast as possible. Don’t eat all day long just because you messed up at breakfast. Don’t binge tomorrow because it’s Sunday anyway and you better start on Monday. I lost many years like…[Read more]

6 days to COSTA RICA!!

WT: 117.4

Working hard this weekend and committed to bars. I’ve been holding at this weight, and will likely see a loss tomorrow or Tuesday. I feel really great at this weight. There is not much fat left but I could probably go down 2 more pounds.

Told Dr. Lewis that I would try to get to 115. The lowest I’ve ever gotten…[Read more]

This journey is about identifying our issues and facing them head on! We all have habits. Patterns of thinking and action that often have worked for us before and not anymore. We reward ourselves for a job well done (that usually comes from childhood) or to destress (such a cultural habit). I have identified sooo many habits I had that kept me…[Read more]

Back on track and feeling great and in control!!

Breakfast 2 cups black coffee
Lunch 5 bites Snickers
Dinner 5 bites pasta salad

I’m really proud of myself for admitting my slip and getting right back on track, that is a huge win for me!

Great Smaro, I messed up a bit but you’re right, this diet changes your way of thinking and when I fell off track, I didn’t go as crazy as I would have in the past. Just keep going!!

I have found that scales can defeat us on the mental battlefield. And they are often not accurate. Yes, I try to not weigh more than once a week. It really is wonderful that it did go down.

Gayle,

I can relate, I have stayed the same:(. I am going to stay off of scale for a few days. I know I am eating what I am suppose to.

Better weight loss days ahead…..Kindera

How fantastic ! Changing the mindset not only result in weight loss but permanent weight management If you don’t change your relationship with him and how deal with our emotional triggers we may lose weight we may not keep it off

So happy for you

Today was weigh-in day. I lost only 2 lbs this week. Not surprised.
I’m not giving up, though.

Yesterday i managed to eat just 2 bars. I guess i got frustrated from blowing up the bar week and i wanted to prove to myself that i can do it even for 1 day. It wasn’t that bad.

Today i ate 2 bites feta cheese, 1 bite lentil soup, 8 bites pasta with…[Read more]

Got on the scale this morning after a perfect 5 bite bar day yesterday and down only .5lb. I’ve decided to not weigh again until Monday. I don’t want to feel defeated and blow a meal or a day thinking what’s the point if I’m not losing x amount of weight. I know that whoosh will come I just need to be persistent and not give up.

3/29 147.5

Day 3/6 for Bar Challenge and going strong!

Gained 0.8 for no reason. Big drop will likely occur in a day or two. Dropped bites yesterday fro 2 bars to 1.5. No way that I cannot be losing weight. Weight loss is not linear

9 days to Costa Rica

Wt: 119.2 ( up 0.

This is a perfect example of how to scale does not always tell the full story Yesterday I only had one and a half bars rather than my standard two and ended up gaining .8 The day before and lost almost 2 pounds with two bars That can be for multiple reasons for gaining but I’m just not even going…[Read more]

That’s it! You simply make the decision to do it, and like flipping a switch, it’s done. From that point forward it just takes time, but it WILL happen. The key, though, is flipping that switch. I love it, Karen!

Just checking in, I am having a great day. My tummy is doing major growl but my head is finally in the right place.

Breakfast: 1 cup Coffee 1 tbs milk
Lunch: 5 bites taquito
Dinner: 5 bites tuna salad

amazing loss

Wow! 4 pounds in a week is GREAT!!

I love the bars for resetting and used bars to get to goal!

You’re doing great!!

Still at 148. No loss from Monday. I know I’ll probably be stalled for a few days due to the alcohol but I’m not giving up. I still had a 4lb loss in 1 week. Even if that continues I’ll be at my goal in 5 weeks.

I have found it easier to pretty much stick with two bars a day. I know at some point, I will need to do regular food. I just want to get there! So great to see that you have done this and maintained for so long, Gives us all hope…..
