Yes, Kylie: Have an amazing vacation.  Check in here often.  Enjoy the food, but be mindful: taste everything, but finish nothing.  Taste and toss.  Have a wonderful time!!

I love that attitude, Denise!  And yes you can!  You won’t be perfect at first, but keep honing your skills.  You will get better and better at five-biting your meals as time goes on, and then … before you know it … you’re there!  You’re done!!  And life is simply extraordinary!!!

I love that,  Elizabeth.  Yes!  Own it!!!

Thank you so much every one!!

Again, NO ESTIMATING.  It is what it is.  Make an egg, and take five bites from it.  Throw the rest away.  If your bites are particularly large (I don’t recommend that, but whatever), maybe you’ll find that one and one-third eggs = 5 bites.

Yes!!  I like that idea!!

I am so sorry that she’s passed on.  My heart goes out to her family and loved ones.

Again, yes.  I would rather you drink coffee with a little something in it than no coffee at all.  Coffee really helps to keep your bite count down.

Fantastic, Denise!  You are doing GREAT!!!

Great job, Preet!  Happy Birthday.  What a GREAT way to celebrate–losing weight!!!

GREAT JOB, Preet!!  You’re doing this!!!  Don’t stop know.  Every step you take in the forward direction make the rest of the journey SO MUCH EASIER!!!  You’ve got this!!!

Right, Denise.  It is the same for everyone.  Our greatest weakness is always ourselves.  Weight loss is such a mind game!  But we are here to set everything straight and to help with that massive mental component to weight loss.  For now, though, focus on eating perfectly and settling into a five-bite groove.  It’s crazy, it’s hard, it’s excit…[Read more]

I love that attitude, Denise!!  Right on!! … and welcome!

Bad days come–and go.  But remember how great it feels to eat just 5 bites and walk away.  It’s simply an awesome feeling knowing that you, with that very first 5-bite meal, are back on track.

I love it, Allison!!!

you can.   not too many.  

I’d prefer that you eat two, perfect, 5-bite meals, at least 4 hours apart.

Harpeet–If you are perfect with the diet, you’ll find that the hunger will go away after 3 days.  4 at the most.  Trust me: it’s totally worth it to eat perfect for 3 days!!!

Welcome, Marci!!  I LOVE that plan.  And IF you do it and keep the moment going, your life will change in absolutely extraordinary ways.  I can’t wait!!!
