Thank you so much Leona!!

Today went great! Another perfect day! Coffee, vitamin, Snickers, 5 tastes broccoli Alfredo.

8 days down, 112 to go!

Best tip is read and reread the book then watch all the chats until you hear Dr. Lewis on an endless loop in your head!

Welcome back!

Thanks everyone! Today I weighed in and I’m down 11 pounds! I am pleased! This week I plan to keep breakfast (coffee) and lunch (Snickers) the same but switch my dinner thinking from 5 bites to 5 tastes to be sure I’m not over biting. I feel great!

Alison

You are doing fantastic!

Hi Mary! Welcome back!

Another perfect day today and that brings me to 1 perfect week complete! Instead of a bar for lunch, my husband made egg sandwiches for brunch. I thought about half would be 5 bites but it was more like 1/3 was 5 bites so I gave the rest to my son. For dinner, we grilled chicken and made Caesar salads. This might have been my first time ever…[Read more]

Another perfect day down! We went on another family bike ride then I had a Snickers for lunch and an afternoon stroll before dinner, at which we grilled Italian sausage, it was very tasty so I skipped the sides and used all 5 bites for the sausage.

You’re almost 20% to your goal weight on the tracker! Great!

Sweet! Great job!

I had a very realistic dream last night that I went to the grocery store with my husband, looked around and started down my usual path to failure and I could see in his face he knew it was coming because he had the look of a loved one of an addict who just relapsed. I started out by enjoying some savory food then just ate more and more until I…[Read more]

You’re doing great and such an inspiration to those of us coming up behind you! Keep it up. As for dancing and vacation activities, isn’t it fun to think about doing something physical simply for the fun of it? So awesome!

I can only speak for myself and to be completely honest, the reason I’ve never taken it all the way is because I know this diet is so effective that I can tuck it away for the future and continue to eat however much I want for another week, until the next holiday, until the next month or year, after we’re done having babies, etc. I also have…[Read more]

Another great day! We took a family bike ride. I had my snickers for lunch and for dinner we grilled, I ate 5 bites slowly to enjoy then busied myself with the baby.

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!!

Alison

Great Smaro, you can do it!

Thank you Kat! Once I get past those first few days it’s so nice to settle into a groove and watch the days pass. This is my first day not weighing myself but once a week and I’m missing knowing my exact weight but I know it helps keep me honest with everything I eat or drink but ohhhhhh I want to know :silly:
