Poppycat.  I remember you from before.  Thank you so much for coming back.  Let’s get on the chat tonight and have some fun conversation.  Yes!  Portion control is the secret and that is also my issue.  Put it on my plate…I eat it all.   LOL   That has to change.

Chloe.  My husband was a mail carrier for 33 years.  He carried about 70 pounds at the holidays in those mail bags and walked 13 miles a day.   We didn’t have hills in Iowa like Portland.  But I wonder if your tingling could be a pinched nerve in your back.   Mail carriers have great benefits for chiropractors in their insurance plan.  There…[Read more]

i miss you on the chats.
I will be there Monday Oct 3.
I hope to see you!!   You are so encouraging

Shelly

I heard in a chat dr Lewis say. The fat actually releases inflammatory

I need no more inflammation.    But my back surgeon said inflammation means I am getting bone growth around my back fusion so it’s ok to hurt a little ?

Shelly

GO KATIE!   You can do this. !!!
i think the first week is hard.

I was here in 2015.  I lost 60 lbs  but I haven’t been back real serious until now.

I will also weigh in on Wednesday. I hope to see you in the chat on Monday night

Weighing in everyday helps me stay motivated too

I like the chicken wrap.  I just don’t feel satisfied with a snickers.

keep posting!

I need to start being accountable    I love my 4 grandchildren but having to watch them all day at times causes me so much anxiety. I’m so mad at the daycares for sending kids home with any COVID excuse.        (Another child had COVID in a different room, so they send all the children home in both rooms for a week).  Upsurd!!!

Thank you Dr Lewis.  I’m afraid the back surgery can’t be changed.  in 2018 a Coflex implant was put in L2 and L3.      It has to be removed   This was an experimental thing.  It didn’t work very long

I carry most of my weight in my stomach.  I know that makes it worse

Question Dr Lewis

Does it work to eat breakfast and lunch    BUT NO DINNER…[Read more]

I dropped 2 pounds since I started talking on The Slimming station again   But I really haven’t followed it to a T.   Not eating in the mornings has probably been my biggest asset right now.  And staying away from dairy I feel better.     I have a scale now at my son’s house where I will be until April 10th.  this does help me.

I purchased a scale yesterday here in Nashville.  My daughter in law said her scale broke along time ago.  So, I can leave it here for her to use also.   Before I eat anything I am going to step on the scale starting tomorrow.  I just need that reminder so I don’t lie to myself     I know in the back of my mind what my weight is before I eat but…[Read more]

I am craving weighing myself.   I don’t have a scale at my son’s house.  But I’m honestly thinking about getting one.  Weighing keeps me motiviated and accountable.  Otherwise I lie to myself.  And I tell myself I am loosing even if not doing the 5bite diet correctly.     I have to weigh myself daily.  I know some people do not want to do this b…[Read more]

Hi Carolyn!  You have a Great attitude!   You can do this.

Shelly

I can already see a huge difference in how I feel.  No diarrhea.  Eating less.  Doing better without the milk

Shelly

Sharon Marie is this you?   Are you poppy cat now?

Shelly

Dr Lewis,  Thank you for the milk and lactose advise.  I can do that.  I saw  The bars I have eaten forever have milk.  So I will avoid those too.  I think if I feel better it will be easier to follow the 5 bite diet.  Thank you for the advice!  I really appreciate it.
