I see you here. You paid good money to be here for a month. Some part of you is willing to give it another go. I would listen to that voice. We’re all here together on the same journey to absolute health. Just do it!

You cannot be totally committed sometimes.

Everyone is doing great! Even little slips can be seen as a learning experience and not set us back if we just keep at it. I am in charge of all cooking and meal preparation. I can make 20 meals without even thinking about being tempted but that 21st meal will take all my strength not to eat. That happened today at lunch and I ate one perfect bite…[Read more]

I’m humming along. My hunger stay is set. I’m doing bars for a week per Dr.’s orders. I’m eating for less than a dollar a day because my 5 bites is only half a bar. Lose weight and save money doing it. What’s not to love!

I’m going to be hard pressed to make it to the chats right at 6. I take my boys to 6pm practice at the pool for water polo. I try not to drop them too early or they’ll get into some mischief before the coach arrives. I’m wondering if I can join late – say 5 minutes late. I understand if I’m the only participant, that Doctor may have given up by…[Read more]

I wrote this on my scale: “It’s better to live a life of discipline than a life of regret”

Tao,

Thanks! It’s nice to have such a warm welcome.  I do know about the water thing, what I experience is an urgency related to the irritation to my bladder that is caused by the caffeine. Once I’m through the reset, I really don’t need any help with hunger. I’ll be fine. I am curious though if anyone else has this issue.
