RockInTheChange –
Yes. You can do this, and I will help you get there.
First, if you quit smoking, congratulations! That is goal #1, and (frankly) the most important habit to break. The #2 cause of preventable death is fat, but we are going to defeat that together.

Question #1 – You feel like eating is out of control. I think you just started…[Read more]

I don’t know. I can’t seem to stick with it.
I am so disappointed with myself.
I wrote a long post about it.
But, Dr. Lewis, I want to really do this.
I have to do this.

I feel like my eating has really gotten out of control since I quit smoking three weeks ago. I feel bigger by the day.
I have got to stop this and lose it NOW.

Eva and It’s My Time: I really want to lose weight with you guys! I really do!Post edited by: rockinthechange, at: 2008/02/21 02:28

This is wonderful!
You both are doing sooooooooo well.
Congratulations.

I am so proud of you!
I really am thrilled for you!

Congrats, Eva! I’m with you. I couldn’t wait to weigh myself until next Monday, so I did this AM. I lost 5.2 pounds in two days! I’m going to really try not to weigh myself until Monday now (I can get a little obsessed with the scale). I posted in my other string that day three is a little easier than day two. I feel my head is in a better…[Read more]

Thanks, Eva. I had a cup of hot tea this morning (less splenda) and I wasn’t hungry until I ate at 10:00am. I wanted to eat, but it had nothing to do with hunger. I ate at 10:00am rather than 11:00am, so I’m going to try to wait until 5:00pm. Yesterday I had to eat at 3:00pm. I’m less hungry today than yesterday, so I’m hoping the body is…[Read more]

I just wanted to fill you in on a little secret…black coffee with a splenda for breakfast really curbs the appetite and gives you a little boost of energy to get you through til lunch. If you don’t like coffee, try hot tea! It really works…good luck!

Dear ItsMyTime–

Sounds like you are off to a great start. Enjoy this journey–It’s only going to happen once in your life.

In terms of autorenewing–we don’t do that.

RockInTheChange-

Great! Now do it again (or something like it) for dinner, and call it a day. Just keep it going until you are skinny, then you can learn to eat the right amount for you.

But…not bad, is it? I think it’s a lot easier having just 2 Snicker Bars in a day than to run on a treadmill for 6-7 STRAIGHT HOURS! (They are…[Read more]

I had a Snickers bar for lunch today with a cup of hot tea.
It was pretty filling!

Hi again…I was wondering if I can change my autogenerated pwd and make sure that I don’t auto renew like some other forums?
Thanks!

Thanks, It’s My Time.
I need that extra support!

ItMyTime–

Fantastic! I can sense that you will do very, very well. Then spread the word!

In my book, I use the size of a 2.07 oz (snack-sized) Snicker’s Bar as a complete meal. Image what that amount of food is, and eat just that amount of food for every meal. If you do, you will get to your goal quickly and almost effortlessly. It is frankly unbelievable how quickly you will achieve perfect health.

Good luck!

Hi rockinthechange,

I’m starting today too! Let’s start together and help motivate each other to stay focused. I think the most difficult part of this is going to be the psychological aspect of eating so little food when we’re used to eating too much. I’m not worried about the short lived hunger pangs that Dr. Lewis says we’ll get the first…[Read more]

Thanks, Dr. Lewis. I’m going to start today, Monday, Feb. 18. I’ll weigh myself every Monday going forward. I see from the string that you recommend this and not everyday. Good. The scale can play tricks with me; I can get obsessed with weighing myself if I have to do it more often.

Thanks for the info to get started today! I’ll post here…[Read more]

Hi Eva,
The gist of the diet is to eat 5 bites of food for lunch and dinner and drink noncaloric beverages. I did one day last week and it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be!
BUT, sadly, I only did one day.
However, I did notice that just one day later, I did get full much sooner!
I spoke with my hubby about this diet and how I need to do…[Read more]

I am SOOOOOOOO sad I missed it on Extra. I would have loved to see it.
Is it going to be on Youtube?

Welcome to all the newbies.
I am a newbie myself.
I was going to start last week but I kept making excuses. I did one day last week (which was surprisingly easy) and then stopped.
I have realized, I have got to do this. No excuses.
Our portion…[Read more]
