Day two!

For my first bar I was really craving something warm so I took the advice from Susan from older posts. I heated up my snickers bar a little bit! Wouldn’t do it every time but it was a nice change up.

Second bar I had a snickers ice cream candy bar. Super good!

experimenting a bit today TGIF

Great I will definitely check that out!

I like to do things that keep my busy!

-clean/straighten up or organize

-self care like doing my nails or hair

-meditation/hypnosis  app on my phone

—acknowledge how I’m feeling and take some deep breaths

-call my sister

-play with my son or my dog

drink something warm

Hi Phyllis,

Can I ask you about your maintenance? Do you frequently have to go back to 5 bites or were you able to find a certain number of bites that works for you? I know I’ve heard of people eating one meal a day for maintenance. Just curious!

I purchased these mints that make sugar taste super gross for like an hour! That’s if you consume sugar after letting the mint dissolve. I’m going to use them to help when I have cravings besides my bar. Just thought I’d share! 

Finishing up my last bar!
bar one – zone perfect bar chocolate peanut butter

bar two- zone bar chocolate mint

no diet soda today I’ve found it really triggers my hunger

3 cups of coffee with tablespoon of cream in each (I know, I know but I really don’t like black coffee)

My name is Becky btw I keep forgetting that the only thing displayed is Bk1068381. Yesterday went great and I woke up another pound lighter which is awesome! I’ve been trying to constantly remind myself how horrible I feel when I eat extra bites. I’m staying out of the kitchen even though I’ve cleaned it out of tempting food. I’m not eating…[Read more]

I wanted to share a tip I learned from an emotional eating course I took. I hoping it will help my weight loss journey on five bite!

One topic discussed was why we can’t resist food at times of extreme emotions like sadness, anxiety, happiness, or excitement (not necessarily just hunger). The reasoning behind this is that our body goes into a f…[Read more]

Excited to wake up and see -1.5 lbs reminds me why this is so motivating. Feeling back in control already. Need to stay the course and trust the process!

It’s so nice to see your posts and pictures of meals. It makes me excited to see someone in maintenance! It helps with the bigger picture

You got this! I absolutely agree with behavior victories. The scale certainly doesn’t lie and keeps that behavior accountable

I am rooting for you Rachel! I’ve seen your video chats and have always felt like we had a similar struggle to keep up the momentum on the diet. Hope you’re still going strong

I’ve been experimenting with other methods for the last almost two weeks. This has given me time to realize that the simplicity of this program is much better. This has given me a much renewed sense of perspective on my own lack of commitment to the program. I did take part in a zoom emotional eating program that gave me some tools to tackle the m…[Read more]

Well I am done with the diet. I have been doing this diet off and on for two years now and it just never sticks. I just end up in a restrictive cycle of three days bars 4 days binge. Then I feel guilty that I can’t stick to it. I would rather eat a bit more and actually stick to something for a week and lose weight slower. Good luck to everybody o…[Read more]

Everyone is definitely different! I try to have some coffee or tea to help me feel like I’m eating.

Well right back up in my weight again. No excuses, I just didn’t stick on the plan. Back on it this morning

Great job resisting the food! It’s so easy to just give in especially in the first few days. Great job!

Welcome! The forum helps a lot!

No way! What part? I’m in Olympia
