How amazing Mel! Can’t wait to be fully reset on bars. How’s your hunger and cravings?

Day 2

Ive been complacent for too long. I’ve let too many social occasions become social eating events and that has to stop. I am going to have to DIET during those social times if I ever want to get back to my goal.

Today- I only have to focus on having my two bars a day. How easy is that? Waves on hunger will come but honestly when I overeat -…[Read more]

Bar day today thru Friday 5 B on weekend !

Carmel – I do a lot of social stuff and it can get challenging. I like you’re philosophy of looking at sticking to plan as a dopamine release and reward. I e certainly done that before. In previous 5 B journeys when I was successful, I didn’t let anything or anyone to allow me to deviate from my pla…[Read more]

I have also found bars to be the fastest. It also helps me to detach from food and reset quickly. It’s easy to rationale an extra bite or two when eating.  Great job Mel and Carmel!!

Wishing everyone a great day!!

Having my colonoscopy today. My goal is to be back on plan today. I will do bars Wednesday thru Friday. 5 B the other days.

let’s go get em

That is fantastic!! So happy for you!!

Thx Mel! So appreciate the reassuring words. I’ve had it done before and I’m good. I am also used to the fasting thing. Going to look at it as an opportunity to “cleanse” and reset.

Have a great day!!

Hey guys! Had a bit of a challenging eating weekend. Next two days will be focused on a colonoscopy. At least that means liquids for a day and no food. Will do 5B after procedure.

I will still check in w you guys and cheer you on.

xoxo Gayle

You’re right Mel!! It’s so much more pleasant and effective when we have a community cheering us on. That’s why I keep on coming back. It’s so easy to get complacent and Dr Lewis reminds me that we deserve to be “exceptional!”

You are so on your way Mel!!!

Made it through a PERFECT 5 Bite day. Fasted until 3:30 and had first bar. Another bar at 7:15 pm. It really helps to lesson the hunger and cravings when I don’t let the artificial sugar in. No soda, no gum- just water and coffee.

Hope everyone did well today.

Great job Healthy RN!!

I am 19.5 hours fasted. My goal was over 18. Going to wait a bit longer and have first bar.

We so got this!!

Good Morning Team!

Today I am reminding myself of how it feels to be skinny, strong and healthy. The joy of waking up to a flat tummy and one that looks great with and without clothes – sorry if this is too graphic. I am reminding myself that it takes a bit of sacrificing and a little discomfort. It takes a real focus and a shift of mindset. I…[Read more]

Day 3

SW: 126.6

I decided that it was time to face the music. This weight is my post- thanksgiving /holiday/ vacation weight. Time to shed this and get back to skinny and strong. A lot of this weight is volume and salt. Hoping to be 120 by next Thursday.

Mel- I know it’s your weigh in day is Thursday so I decided to face the music.

I am g…[Read more]

Day 2

Good Morning everyone! Today I’m packed up and ready for an early and busy day. Usually early days are triggers for me bcs they usually are days where I have less sleep and more stress (NYC traffic!). Not today!! I got sleep and I am mentally preparing for staying on track. I will drink my water and black coffee until lunch time and then I…[Read more]

Hi guys!

good day back. I will be with you guys for a while.

Hi Mel-

Nothing is faster than 5 bite. Weight loss is definitely not linear. Just keep true to the process and your body will do it’s job.

You’re doing great!!

I need to start w you guys! I was going to rejoin last week and life got in the way.

still traveling.
count me in tomorrow !!

I will be doing bars too until sat morning.
