Hi There ~ I am so glad that you are back on track and ready to give it your ALL! I also started this program at the end of February and have lost 25+ pounds since then. I started at 175 pounds and I am now 148 pounds. But, I have gone on and off the program many times. I really went off the deep end and gained back 10 pounds. I recommitted myself…[Read more]

Chigirl – simply stated, your bites are way to big. And whether your bites or big or small, it all tastes the same. So make them small and get the job done!

Welcome back, Andrea –

As the site grows there will be more and more of us to encourage you to sprint for the finish line–and fewer and fewer reasons to give up! : )

Remember: once you’ve had a bite of something, you’ve had it. No need to take another bite, unless you are still hungry. And if you bite count totals more than 5, you just need…[Read more]

Hi LizW ~ I am feeling a bit frustrated too this 1st week getting back to the program. I have lost 25 pounds since February, but that was going on & off many times. I gained back almost 10 pounds & knew I had to make a real committment this time around. I started again this past Monday & lost 3 pounds the 1st day ~ then 2 pounds ~ then 1 pound ~…[Read more]

Hi Brian ~ Thank you so much for the response and the extra needed support and encouragement. That is why I am so glad that I joined this forum & I really appreciate your kind words. You are right ~ patience is the key to achieving any goal in life. I know that we can all reach our ideal weight helping each other get there & stay on track! I wish…[Read more]

ChiGirl,
I can completely understand! I have tried every diet in the world and have not been able to stick with any of them. I have only done this for 10 days but I can’t believe the results. I guess I just have to remind myself how long it took to put the weight on. There is also not a plan out there that would enable you to even lose 6-1/2…[Read more]

You betcha! And I’ll be delighted to help out however I can.

Exactly – that was my thought as well! I can wait but just thought there might be a way to solve it. I do want you to know that I feel as if a giant burden has been lifted off of me. I finally know how to lose weight! I am fairly disciplined and look forward to the next couple of months. Thanks for a common sense and practical way to lose…[Read more]

I don’t know. I’ll have to talk to Chris about that. But: you’ll for sure be able to edit the data that is there, so after the forth week (and the data has been correctly entered), everything will be back on track.

Remember, everyone: Once you have the weight tracking feature going, all you have to do is update your weight each week. The data in your personal profile AUTOMATICALLY updates.

Thanks Chigirl,

I am so fired up about this process as I can see instant results. It just makes so much sense. This is it for me – I will lose the weight and be done with it. I do not think that I will have a problem eating less after going through this. Anyway, have a great day!

Hi Shanni ~ Thank you for sharing your story regarding your depression. I have also dealt with deep depression & was prescribed medication. I was always a thin, athletic and active person. But, once I started the meds I gained about 60 pounds in a few months. This in itself caused even more depression for me and isolation. But, the good thing is…[Read more]

Hi Mammas Rack ~ 14 pounds in 1 week is phenominal! WAY TO GO! You are well on your way to losing the weight for good this time. Thanks for the inspiration & sharing your story. I know that we can ALL reach our goals & feel fantastic at the finish line! Hope to "meet" you at the chats on Mondays!

Hi Brian ~ Welcome! I just joined myself yesterday & it has given me a BIG boost already! I bought Dr. Lewis’ book at the end of February after seeing him on Access Hollywood. I lost over 25 pounds and then lost all motivation after going on and off the program. I started again this past Monday with renewed motivation and determination. I have…[Read more]

Hi LizW ~ Thank you so much for your reply! I appreciate you helping me along this journey we are taking together. I look forward to "meeting" you on the chat Monday. I hope to see you there ~ You are off to a great start, so keep up the great work!

Hi Georgia ~ Thanks so much for your post & sharing your experience with everyone here. I bought the book at a local bookstore after seeing Dr. Lewis on Access Hollywood at the end of February. I lost over 25 pounds, but not as fast as I should have ~ I went on and off just like you. I was tempted by sweets/treats that family members keep in the…[Read more]

Hi Arleen ~ It is so nice to be part of this forum & give each other support and encouragement. I actully started this program at the end of February. I lost over 25 pounds, got off course a few times and gained back some of it. I finally got serious and found a great deal of motivation. I started again this Monday and have lost 6 of those pounds…[Read more]

Hi Dr Lewis ~ I feel wonderful that I received a personal message from you today. I am more motivated than ever & know I can reach my goals this time. Thanks for the encouraging message & to keep me headed in the right direction. Being overweight is not something I am used to or grew up with. I used to always be thin, very athletic and active.…[Read more]

HI Chigirl, and welcome. The chat is only open when Dr. Lewis moderates it on Mondays, as far as I know. I’m far, far from a computer guru (as you can tell from this post).

Hello Chigirl! Welcome! Delighted to have you aboard!

I conduct the live chats usually once a week, but I’d be happy to schedule them more often if people want. I have found that when I usually do my chats, on Mondays, not many people show up, so for now I’m only holding it once a week. But let me know if there is a time that would be better…[Read more]
