GREAT!!

Hi Jane!  You have truly done GREAT, but I think it is important that you–as a mater of routine–don’t finish everything on the plate.  Leave some bites here and there.  If you get in the habit of always finishing food (every now and then, sure, no problem) you might fall back into old habits as portions sizes continue to grow around you.  B…[Read more]

Welcome!  I can’t wait to watch you completely transform your life.  This is going to be amazing!!

I absolutely LOVE hearing that, Kylie!  You are in the groove.  Now, buckle in for the ride!!!

You are doing great, Kylie!!  Keep up the amazing work/pace!!!

Indeed!  It’s SO GOOD to see you again, Neil!!

Maybe.  I’m not sure.  I’ll ask.

You are exactly right, Julie!  You don’t need to eat a single bites when you are overweight.  Still, though, to maximize metabolism, and to collect up to 10 different tastes of food that you are craving in a daytime, please eat exactly 5 bites twice a day.  Once your hungerstat sets to that new volume you will be flying, feeling comfortable and in…[Read more]

 You are welcome.

I like the illustrations.

Yes, the skin should firm up with time.

Wow, Julie!  Thanks for sharing your struggles.  Like Jane, I think one day you will look back on these posts and laugh a little.  Remember: at the finish line everything will be clear: you will feel AMAZING, you will eat whatever you want, but you will fill up quickly and you won’t want to finish food just because it’s there.  Your metabolism wil…[Read more]

Absolutely brilliant, Jane!  You are a superstar!!!  

I’d still give it a little time.  Thyroid moves very slowly–it takes weeks for a medication change to appear on lab work.  Similarly, it takes weeks for a weight change to affect your lab work.

So, so, good!

This is all good, Jane, but you may not get to all of the perishables before they go bad.  Fine.  It’s just food, and the value of that food is minimal.

It can happen, and there are no perfect diets out there.  BUT, I truly believe we have a lot more successes than any other diet out there, including those who’ve actually undergone surgery.  The key to long term success is crossing the finish line.  Once you actually do that, maintenance is nearly a given.  You may regain some back after that, but…[Read more]

YES!!  Go back to bars!  Technically, you don’t need ANY food until you are thin, so eating a bar twice a day, when you are overweight, is indulgent.  You can stick with bars all the way through to the finish line.  Boring?  Maybe.  But easy, mindless, and extremely effective all at the same time.  You can do this!!!

Yes!  Great work!  Doesn’t it feel really good right now!  So much better than how you would feel if you just ate a normal amount of food.  Although you won’t see the benefits until tomorrow on the scale, it simply feels amazing to do the diet correctly.  Great job!!

Indeed!  Happy New Year to All!

OK.  This is the year.  Let’s all get skinny in 2026!!!  We can do it, and just imagine how it will change your life!

yep!
