Bar 2 done at 7:40 pm. Day 1 is a success!!

It’s always great to get a session with the master! He always motivates me. Going to kill it this week. it’s so important to get a grip before all the holiday madness.

I never regret putting in the time to get skinny and healthy. As Dr Lewis says – skinny is the healthiest thing we can do for our bodies. I miss being on top of my game.

Bar 1 done. Had w americano. Delicious and satisfying. Something about eating it slowly and mindfully.

no more food till dinner bar

Love that idea Carmel! My home is pretty safe with less tempting food. My trigger would be going to the market. I have a ton of bars in the house from the last time I wanted to do the challenge. I know that we are all where we are supposed to be but I can’t help thinking that if I had committed fully a couple of weeks ago that I would be at the l…[Read more]

good morning group! Feeling so ready to cleanse and lighten up. Just had a delicious black nespresso. My body craves a clean-up.

Let’s stay connected so that we keep our momentum goi…[Read more]

Hey Rachel

I am so glad that you’re communicating w Dr L. A lot of people start out w more bites and work their way down. Do your best in the moment. Give yourself grace and love when and if you slip. We all slip. I am cheering you on.

Sorry for the typos. I was rushing to get to work and relied too heavily on dictation.

Hi Rachel.
I’m so glad I saw this. As most of the group knows- I am in maintenance. I haven’t been active in the last week or so because of back to back vacations and I don’t want to shift the focus of this group right now with his weight loss. I will be back after vacay.

I wanted to strongly encourage you to follow through with this plan serio…[Read more]

Good for you Mel!! Maintenance of weight loss requires lifelong vigilance. We know this. There are some tough days and easy days. Today was met with lots of food thoughts. When I get up early – I feel much more of a propensity for food cravings. On these types of days I try to activate my higher brain and remind myself that giving in to the…[Read more]

Day 3:

Down a pound. I feel like something salty. Ignoring the craving. It will pass. Staying busy is the solution.

I have a party tomorrow. Going to exercise my 5 B muscle. Planning on bar day for sunday.

Next Friday I am away on a mini-vacay. I need to keep it tight to prepare for that.

Have a great day everyone!

We are a LEAN, so not mean community of unstoppable people.
