That sounds perfect!

Could I do one of those?

I think a different bar would help! I don’t really like nuts with chocolate. But what about the protein? Do I need to find a way to get that in with one of the bars somehow? I guess I could do one snickers and something else for my second one…

I am doing the snickers bars. I’m like them okay, but definitely not my favorite candy bar,  although I do like candy bars in general. One snickers bar will last for maybe 1 hour or so. Hunger and cravings are quite strong but I’m going to trust and hope that they subside after day 3!

Your words are so helpful. I have read the book. Twice. But maybe I need to go back over some sections. I think what it comes down to is I just need to make a commitment for 3 days and then hopefully it won’t feel like such an intense inner battle. I am so insanely addicted to food. I just went through an awful divorce after a…[Read more]

So, I have a strange question to ask. Since I am struggling to keep my bites strictly at 5, I wondered if the answer to this question might help me.

When I was doing a low carbs diet a few years ago, I was so worried about accidentally eating carbs because of the idea of having to “get back into ketosis”. I even once dreamed that I ate an…[Read more]

So helpful! I’m still hanging in there. I did go over my bites last night. But I didn’t go crazy. I’m back on today. Doing well so far.. .

Feeling kind of tired and a little bit of a headache. But not too bad. Happy that I stuck with it. I had a weird thought today when I was having some intense cravings. I thought, “all I have to do is control my hands, I don’t need to worry about the chatter in my head, just my hands.” (since I use my hands to eat).  It’s kind of a strange…[Read more]

Thank you so much for your encouraging words. You have no idea how much that helps! It most definitely is a mindset. I can see that now. This is day 2 for me. And everything in me is screaming to quit. But I won’t. I’m going to make it through today. I’ll report back tonight. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I’m so ready to be done with…[Read more]

I’m back! I think I’m going to give this another go. I tried it in October but never really got a good start. But I really do want to give this process a chance. Today was day 1 for me, starting at 239. My issue is that while sometimes I am highly motivated, I have these moments where I just don’t really care (I really DO…[Read more]

I will just focus on just the next meal then. Tomorrow at noon. Thank you so much. Don’t give up on me yet!

Turns out I couldn’t. Then I have struggled to get back on today. Ugh! I have over 100 pounds to lose and it just feels so overwhelming I guess. If I stayed really strong, how long would it take me to lose 100 pounds? Maybe it would help me to have an end date.

Day 5

Starting weight 247.          current weight 238

It is definitely getting so much easier. I’m struggling with having a few extra bites here and there. But I haven’t allowed it to derail me like it has in the past. I’m going to try for a perfect day today.

But I can’t seem to post a picture from my phone. I don’t know why. I’ll keep trying!
241 pounds today.

Starting weight 247
Current weight 241

I decided to start an official journal to track my progress and stay accountable. Yesterday was rough, but I finally made it to day 3. Yay! I know I have a really long way to go. But I’m excited to be on the way. I have been so incredibly out of control with food. I’m doing 2 bars a day for now. Thank…[Read more]

Thanks Dr. Lewis. Yes! I will do the bars for a week. I will make a new topic for my journey and post my scale pictures every day. I think that will help me.

Thank you so so much for the support! I think I’m going to post my journey and weight each day to keep me accountable. I’ve never done anything like that before, kind of embassing that I have let myself get so out of control. I have turned to food for comfort and security and stability and have put on 40 pounds in one year. Ugh.…[Read more]

I tried to jump on the meeting (late) tonight but maybe I missed it. I have been trying to start this for months and can’t seem to make it past 2 days. And then I end up bingeing. So I’ve actually gained a lot of weight as I’ve tried and failed like every day! Ugh. I feel like I just need some help and accountability.…[Read more]
