Beautiful!  Sorry I’m late arriving–(how late am I?) .  But GREAT that you are here!

First, have you still been able to avoid the temptation to eat?  How long has you been doing the diet PERFECTLY?

You are right–just one measly week out of your entire lifetime.  That’s all I’m asking.  And if not THIS week, when?

 Keep it going!  

Yep.  I say that a lot!  

I’m cheering you guys on!  

Right.  Actually, eating is kind of exciting.  Can you eat the next meal perfectly?  It’s an exciting challenge, and so rewarding when you succeed.  Of course, to get started, I recommend Snickers only though.

Sure–Kit Kat–why not?!  

That’s plenty!

Brilliant!!

Also, Jessica:  Firstly, WELCOME!

Secondly, I LOVE the fact that you WANT to be thin.  That is a huge feather in your cap.  Believe it or not, most people do not want to be thin.  But when you combine the desire to be thin with the tools to get there, you have a formula for permanent success!  GREAT!!  

Right, but remember that the ultimate measure of health is the amount of fat on the body, particularly around the stomach.  So we’ll shoot for 95, then re-eval.  Jessica, if you still have excess fat around the belly, we go down to 90, then re-eval.  

I’d cut back even more!

Right.  More simply stated, “If you are overweight, there is no such thing as healthy food.”

Hi Letileit!  Right–you’ve done this before, and you understand the benefits of being thin.  They are far better than any amount of extra bites.  So, go for it!  Go hard, stay consistent, and let’s see how fast you can get back across that finish line.  Go back to Snickers!  

What’s done is done.  That’s all behind you.  We start fresh this very moment, and resolve to stay 100% committed to the plan.  

GREAT JOB, Leona!  I’m thrilled to see you back!  You have recommitted yourself to excellence and are out of the gates with a bang!  Don’t change a thing! (Except maybe the water.)

But be careful:  drinking that much water can flush OUT your electrolytes, thereby cause cramping.  You might want to get your electrolytes checked at your doct…[Read more]

Beautiful!  I love that!  That incredible feeling you get the morning AFTER begin hungry is amazing, isn’t it!  It makes sticking to the program totally worth it.  

Great!  Congratulations!!  

Congrats, Rebekah!  You’ll get this!  As you progress farther along this journey, you’ll be able to catch your slip-ups earlier and earlier, and eventually you’ll be able to stop the mindless eating before it even begins.  

Keep it going!  

Good luck!!  Keep the focus!!
