Sounds good, Shelly!

That’s true, Susan!  

Fantastic.  If you get a chance, stop by and have lunch at Mustards.  The food is amazing.

Again, Welcome!  I too am really excited to see what you can do.  You are starting off at a really low weight, so let’s see what someone of your size CAN lose in 1 week!  Are you up for it?  Are you ready to set a phenomenal standard that others can aspire to duplicate?  Hint:  BE PERFECT.  I don’t care what you eat, but eat EXACTLY 5 bites of the…[Read more]

Indeed, Rachel, you could eat more bites here and there, but why?  You won’t remember the extra bites tomorrow.  But OMG!  Being at your goal weight in Napa would be worth every sacrifice you had to make to get there.  Food there is AMAZING, so save your bites for there.

Out of curiosity, will you be eating at the French Laundry?

Good job, Danica!  You are right–exercise suppresses your appetite for up to a half an hour after working out, THEN the hunger comes on with a vengeance.  Getting through the evenings without snacking is a challenge after working out.  But you can do it!  You’ve done great so far, and it’s only going to get easier.  AND, hunger is just hung…[Read more]

Great idea, Rachel!

I LOVE that.  Never settle for mediocrity.  Go for jaw-dropping and stunning!  

Right.  The second you screw up it’s in the past.  But you need to learn from the experience so you don’t do it again.  The next time someone orders Chinese, run in the opposite direction!  (If you smell it, you won’t be able to resist it!)

And BTW, why all the rice?  One bites is IDENTICAL to the flavor of every other bite.  Let’s face it: you w…[Read more]

Love it!! 

I simply cannot wait!  

I love it!!!   

Congratulations, SK, on your eating out experience!  Didn’t you feel powerful–even invincible–being able to eat as little as you did!  Honestly, on the ride home (please try and remember for me) … were you hungry?

Yes!  That is right!  Once you hit your goal, you can make little adjustments in your routine to keep the scale cemented at your goal weight.  I love the fact that your husband has set such a good example for you!!  

I am excited for you, too, Danica!!

SK — You must feel amazing now that the hangry part of hunger has gone.  Once you’re in the groove, DON’T CHANGE A THING!  We see so many examples of where people have afforded themselves extra bites to “celebrate” their success, only to reset their hungerstat in the wrong direction and struggle to get back o…[Read more]

Just 2 more days, Susan.  Fight the good fight.  You can do this!!!  

Right on, Letileti!!  

Welcome back, Shelly!!!  You can do this!  Let’s get ‘er started!  See you tonight!

Great work!  But just imagine how much fast you will be with another 20 pounds of dead weight off your body!!!

It’s a great, great feeling, isn’t it!
