I have pretty much been fasting 16:8 and eating ad libitum after that, or 5:2 style fasting.

What I learned is that with my digestive issues I can’t really handle eating more than small portions of anything at once regardless of what else I am doing. During the fasting days on the…[Read more]

I just posted about my own stumbling blocks. It’s interesting how we can sabotage ourselves in so many ways.

1. Having food in the house that was bought specifically for me or by me. My family eats Keto style and I don’t. So I have bread, fruits, etc in the house that were bought specifically…[Read more]

Thanks for the encouragement I appreciate it!

@spiderchome yes, read it several times. Always makes me want to try 5 Bites again lol

Well, I didn’t even make it through the first day. I ate a ton of food that evening and haven’t tried 5 Bites again since. It’s weird to me that I succumb to eating so much when I have successfully…[Read more]

I am going to do 5 Bites. I’m tired of watching the scale go up and down, want to get to my goal weight ASAP.

I’m going to post my meals, weight loss, and non-scale victories in this thread.

Wish me luck!

ps my starting weight is 218.6, body fat 36.1%.

But I’m here to cheer you on and maybe join in the next one.

Good luck to everyone!

I have lost weight drinking Mt Dew and eating donuts myself lol

It’s stories like these and my own anecdotal experience that makes me believe that most of our diseases are simply related to being overweight, period. Not what kind of foods you eat.

Can you describe how you use it during a meal?

That’s encouraging, hopefully I will notice the same.

I forgot to mention the worst – I have gallstones and have severe intermiitent attacks, sometimes once a week for months sometime once every other month. Seeking relief from these without surgery as well.

I’m new here, this is my first post. Over the course of two years, I have dropped 45 lbs mainly by walking and portion control, and managed to keep it off. My goal weight is 170.

I’m posting tonight to ask if anyone has had success healing digestive issues by losing weight / eating less. I have GERD, gastritis, diverticulitis, IBS,…[Read more]
