Great.  So, how did it go yesterday?

Hi Slolady!  Welcome!

I would LOVE IT if you would start off with a Snickers twice a day for a week.  NOTHING else.  Water and coffee/tee and moderate diet drinks OK, but no other liquids.  What do you think?

Right.  If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again.  If you are committed to getting skinny, you WILL get there.  

Sounds great, BK.  So today is “tomorrow.”  Did you have just a Snickers for lunch today?  Will you have just another Snickers for dinner tonight, saving “regular” food for Sunday?

Great!!  

Great!    

Hi Marie!

I am sorry about the diagnosis, but it should be somewhat comforting to know that this is a very curable disease.

But once again: the #1 risk factor for cancer is excess weight on the body.  Losing weight also helps dramatically in the treatment of all cancer.  So now, more than ever, following through on your commitment to get s…[Read more]

Welcome Gilligirl!  I love those ideas!  We are going to have fun with this!!  

Ari – I feel that you don’t fully understand the significance of this project that you’ve started for yourself.   This is a massive undertaking that will change your life in unspeakable ways.  You will benefit in too many ways to count.

Your mother’s fear…[Read more]

Great.  Good luck!

Right Ari!  Congrats on getting off on a good start.  An occasional Coke Zero is fine, but don’t overdo them.  Still, I rather that than extra bites of food.

Right–get rid of all the candy in your house.  Unless, of course, they are for meals.  There will be plenty of opportunities to snack when you are finished with this race.

I strongly reco…[Read more]

Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant, Susan!!  

Beautiful.  What did you do with the rest of the dinner?

Hello Slimming!  Welcome!  I can’t wait to watch you move through this process!

I love your frame of mind.  The trick for you is going to be dealing with social pressures to eat.  I think for now the best thing is to isolate yourself from them.  Do everything possible to avoid eating with other people, and stick to your bars for each meal when…[Read more]

Yes susan.  Perfect.  You are exactly in the groove, and life is simply good.  Life is GOOD!!!  

That sounds really, really good, Amy, but have you been able to keep that pace since the 22nd?  If not, why not?  What derailed you?  

I love it Susan!  Yes!  Great chat indeed!  You CAN do this.  As hard as resisting the snack temptation may be, you only have to be perfect for 25 more days!  Think about how long you’ve been on this journey.  25 days is nothing!!  

2 things:

1. If you are OK with the pace you are going, so am I.  As long as you are always moving forward you WILL cross the finish line, and your new life WILL be spectacular!

2. If you are frustrated by the “slow” weight loss, then please do the weight diary.  Again, it goes like this:

– Weigh yourself first thing when you wake up, BEFORE g…[Read more]

That’s right.  You need to develop a sense of URGENCY.  Every moment of every day counts.  No scales, just 5 bites twice a day.  Focus on those bites, eat just them, and adore them.  Then on to other bigger and better things!
