Today’s check in:

Lunch and supper were 1 Butterfinger bar each.

I weighed this morning and it said 195.6. So I have lost only 4.4 lbs so far, unless I lose a whole lot more overnight. I’m happy to be out of the 200s now though! It was such a funny feeling when I stepped on the scale the first time I got so low, I almost felt sad! lol!…[Read more]

Here is an interesting article I read this morning:

We already know that fast weight loss is the best. But it’s neat to see some more professionals say the same!

Thank you Dr. Lewis!

Today’s check in:

Lunch was 1 Butterfinger bar.

Supper was 1 Butterfinger bar.

I ate 1 small bite of fruitcake also. Yep, tastes like I thought it would!

Then I had a hard time this evening NOT giving in since I had already cheated. But I made it! No more bites.

I drank 2 mugs of coffee, and I also had a glass of homemade…[Read more]

? I don’t know, I just found the website.   Dr Lewis will have to tell us!

We can do bars together! A bar challenge. If it would help you.

I haven’t lost anything either; this morning I weighed 197.6! I’m being perfect though and hoping for a drop.

Tonight we are going out with friends to go Christmas caroling and then play volleyball; but my plan is to eat my bar beforehand and not eat while there.

Today was a great day!

Butterfinger bars again, one for lunch, one for supper.

I drank 3 mugs of coffee, and warm water when I was thirsty.

I’ve been trying to keep bundled up lately; I’ve been more cold than usual. And I’m hoping it will help me lose faster!

It’s great to be back on track again. Food is such a strong habit! But…[Read more]

Great job, Rachel!!!

Thanks, it works great now!

Thank you Rachel!

Another perfect day! Hooray!

We went out for burgers and to go look at Christmas lights tonight. I ate my bar beforehand, and drank a small diet soda while the others enjoyed burgers and shakes. I had to have my sister taste my soda to make sure it was diet- it tasted so good!

The rest of my day was…[Read more]

Hi Rachel!

You are doing great!

9 lbs in 1 week is amazing!

Sometimes weighing every day can be disappointing when you don’t lose something every time. I have noticed that Dr. Lewis often recommends weighing just once a week. Then you get a big loss all at once!

Don’t be discouraged when the scale doesn’t go down every…[Read more]

I agree, it’s tougher during the holidays! I have the hardest time in social situations… It takes a lot of strength to say no! I just have to remind myself why I’m doing this. It also helps me to be accountable when I check back here each day and post how I’m doing!

That’s super exciting!!! YES, in only a few days you can reach your goal!

You can do it!

Hi Letileti!

Yes, you are never alone!! Keep going, you can do this!

Do you only have 12 lbs left to go? You could lose almost all of them by Christmas!

Something I noticed a few days ago was that more bites just never taste as good as you think they will.

Have you ever tried to eat Snickers bars for your meals?…[Read more]

Today was perfect! Hooray!!!

I MUST drink my coffee in the morning, rather than waiting until later. For some reason, even if I drink exactly the same amount, I do much better if I drink my first coffee around breakfast time. I feel less hungry that way!

I ate Butterfinger bars for my meals today; they weigh 1.9 oz so they’re about…[Read more]

Wow, 5 days is really great! I keep cheating every few days, ugh! I am going to follow your example.

So you have lost 8 lbs in 5 days? That’s amazing! I need to cut out the artificial sweet stuff too.

I hope you have a good evening! We are supposed to get ice here, so that’s going to be interesting. The trees are already wearing icicles!

Thank you Susan! Today I realized, I have been forgetting my resolution to be perfect simply for the sake of being perfect! I do want to get skinny!!! I appreciate that you took the time to encourage me to try harder. Thank you!

Today was way better. I was super busy cleaning this morning, and it was 12 pm before I realized it! It was…[Read more]

Today was crazy. I started out with great intentions and ended up just eating a lot by evening.

I didn’t go as overboard as Thanksgiving, or eat as much as before I started dieting. But more than I planned on. There is NOTHING planned tomorrow, it’s bad weather. So it is a perfect day for a Snickers only day! That’s what I’m going to…[Read more]

That is wonderful, Rachel!!!
