Hello Day 5!!

Well I made it through yesterday. There were some tricky moments – but they were only moments. So glad I stayed on plan. I wasn’t close to going off. Today will be jam packed and I am am going to mentally focus and get ready. I may try new bars because the artificial sugar in the bars I’m eating may be wreaking havoc on my belly. I…[Read more]

Great observation SCS!!

When I think about how fleeting those extra bites are – I wonder why I partake? Literally the only difference of taking those extra bites is a few more seconds or minutes of enjoyment. Unfortunately – I don’t feel more satisfied. I just want more and more anyway. Waking up with a flatter stomach and less fat around my body…[Read more]

Great job! One day flows into the next. Time marches on quickly. Might as well make it well spent.

Hi Chloe –

Thanks for responding so thoughtfully! I greatly appreciate it!! I try to do the same. I enjoy the communication. It helps to keep us motivated and on track. It also gives us some ideas and useful perspective. In addition to a mindset shift, having the smaller portions and resetting that hunger stat is a physiological change that…[Read more]

The chats are a GAME CHANGER!!

Hey Tonia –

I am doing bars too! They are the best for me to reset and detach from food and all the temptation it brings. Dr. Lewis said I could put a bit of creamer in my coffee. It has not interrupted my weight loss. I don’t make it light.

I was exactly where you were before recommitting. I went to a friend’s house and it seemed impossible to…[Read more]

Hi Dr. Lewis-

I was so busy all day. It was a less hungry day than usual. The mid to late morning was tough but I rode it out. 2 bars and drinks and DONE!

Weight this morning…DRUM ROLL…122.4. Today day 4. Started at 128.4. The best part is the cravings have stopped. I can also see the appetite going down.

That chat with you Monday night…[Read more]

Dr Lewis told me last night to be perfect today as Day 3 is really important. I was perfect. 2 bars baby.

The call last night was priceless! So many of Dr LEwis is pearls of wisdom are going through my head today. I know I’ve already said it in a prior post but I am reminded of the importance of keeping portions small regardless of what kind of f…[Read more]

I also had difficulty getting on. Dr. Lewis said it was an issue on his end. I think that he meets us right after his work day so sometimes he is not ready to go exactly at 6pm PST (9pm EST).

Love reading your posts Chloe! You are doing amazingly well. Your process is so thoughtful and dutiful. Completely respect your dedication. It really is all about how things speak to us and work for us.

Happy Tuesday! Great call with Dr Lewis. I was pumped before the call and now I am hyper focused. Woke up to a nice weight loss. Going to hit this hard for 12 days before vacation. Dr Lewis thinks I will get close to my goal. For me it’s about gets as close to my low goal as I can before my birthday (nov 20) and holiday season.

I feel like I…[Read more]

Yay! Let’s talk about the 100 reasons why this is going to work…

10 pounds!! You’re a rockstar!! I love reading your posts Chloe. You have such an interesting, introspective approach. It’s quite inspiring and educational.

Can’t wait to connect with you, Dr. Lewis and everyone else.

Well said Sean!!

It’s a lifelong process Chloe! It’s about never giving up. Different times of life presents us with different challenges. Every day we make choices to move us closer to where we want to be.

Great post indeed Chloe!! Good to see you again. I am also back!! I miss being skinny. I LOVED THE FEELING!!
