From my position, this is really exciting to watch.  You are in the zone–it’s just a sprint for the finish line.  I can’t wait!!  

Honestly, Christine, it is more fun–more exciting–to NOT weigh yourself frequently.  What happens happens, but the anticipation is fun and exciting.  So hold off weighing yourself but once a week.  You’ll FEEL whether you are up or down–but don’t confirm your suspicions until the week is up!  Trust me: it’s much more fun this way.  

Great, great, GREAT, Katie!!  1.8 pounds is brilliant!!  You are definitely in the groove.  The EASIEST way to the finish line at this point is to not change a thing.  Keep eating just those two bars are you are there.  Doesn’t it feel great?!

GREAT job, Gayle!  Strong work!

Right–when you think about how long you’ve been trying to get, and stay, at your goal, a week or two of intense 5-biting is really no big deal.  Just take each trying moment as it comes.  Stay strong.  1-2 weeks is NOTHING in the broad spectrum of things.  

I love watching the sister duo race for the finish line.  When one of you cross that line, reach back and help pull the other one across.  Life is truly spectacular and exceptional when you hit your goal.  

YES!!  Right!  Now is the time.  This is the perfect time:  With the New Year comes new goals, new aspirations, new hope, and a new life.  THIS is the time.  GO, GO, GO hard and let’s get ‘er done!  

Again, FANTASTIC job, Susan!  

Indeed … Brilliant work and commitment thus far, Susan!  The results are simply AWESOME when you follow the plan to a “T.”  Keep up the great work!  

Yes.  It is all about commitment.  If this is something you truly want, make the commitment, and I will commit to helping you get there.  

Welcome back, Susan!  Yay!  I’m so happy to see you back here.  I love the fact that you are still down a considerable amount of weight despite all the years that have gone by.  You have learned a great deal of weight control.  But now let’s finish the journey!  YAY!  I can’t wait!!  

So happy to hear from you, Beth!  Indeed, the Average adult gains 5 pounds through the Holiday season, then loses 2 of those 5 pounds over the next 9 months (for a net gain of 3 pounds per year).  Firstly, how much weight have you gained?  Secondly, whatever that amount is, you have the ability to lose ALL of it in a matter of days, not months.  I…[Read more]

Fine.  I’m good with that, but can you tell/feel if you are losing/gaining?  How well are you adhering to a strict 8 bites?  How big are your bites?  What are you drinking?

Yes.  I’m sorry.  I will make it easier to cancel payments.  I hope this program was of great benefit.  Remember: you can 5-bite anywhere, anytime, with anyone.  It’s all you.  Good luck!

Fine.  Then do bars.  The key is to keep experimenting until you find a regimen of food that you can make work with the five bite diet.  Maybe, when you finally do try again with eating “real food” you will try less interesting food at first, like boring fast food items.  Then build from there.  But good luck with 6 days of bars!  Just imagi…[Read more]

OK.  Good.  Keep noting what those triggers to eat are.

Every reason you can think of to evict the fat is a wonderful reason, and I support that reason 100%.

Right.  So, So Cal … another day gone.  Have you been able to stay true to your commitment?

Right.  Don’t give yourself excuses to eat more than 5 bites!  My recommendation:  put the taekwondo on hold until after you’ve lost all of your weight.  Good luck!
