Let’s go PIA!! I’m screaming for you to come join me and all these other fabulous people for a GREAT DAY AND GREAT WEEK!!

Sharon-

You are such a stunning woman! You truly shine your love and light to all. We cannot always be perfect and when we slip we just get right up. I loved reading about your process for rebounding. You did that so quickly. Give yourself credit for that. Sometimes life serves us a lot to manage and eating is the old habit we use to comfort.…[Read more]

Hi Shelly!

Checking in on you. I had a busy weekend too – driving a ton and surrounded with people day and night.

Come join the CHAT tonight! Always enjoy seeing you!!

Hi Lynda-

You are back and NOT giving up! Pick that head up and go forward with gusto!

PREPARE FOR THE FATIGUE AND BOREDOM!! What can you do at 3pm to interest and delight you so you don’t have to eat? Bath with tea. Manicure – can’t eat with wet nails. Shopping – buying yourself little gifts ; put on music, journal on site, scrap booking,…[Read more]

I am beyond excited, proud, pumped and inspired by your dedication to going for your LOW GOAL!

You are embarking on a journey that most feel is unattainable!!

Let’s continue to run to EXCEPTIONAL! We deserve it and we are earning it!!

TODAY IS A NEW DAY! YAY!! I’m doing the BAR GAME with you!!

It’s really really important that you release the past and move on. I can’t begin to tell you how many slips I’ve had. BUT — I never game up. Eventually I realized that this process can be fun and eating can be enjoyed in balance. Also, with very strict dedication you can be SKINNY,…[Read more]

Go for it Laura! We are all rooting for you. It is actually easier, after a few days, to eat less than more. I know that sounds counter-intuitive but your cravings and hunger diminish with less food. Probably related to some hormonal reason that Dr. Lewis could explain. I know for me, the less I eat, the less hungry I am.

I love when Dr. L says…[Read more]

Happy Monday All!

Weigh in Tuesday.

Feeling great this morning. I am so excited about how I did this weekend. Was I perfect in biting size, no — BUT, I did great. Better than any other vacation and college trip. I did not touch any of the sugar laden goodies that were free and plentiful. I went out for a lot of meals and was able to refrain…[Read more]

Good Evening!

Thanks so much everyone for all the encouraging posts!! It means so much to me.

I had a lonnnng carride today and had no time to check in. I want to take this time to reflect on the day and give myself credit.

I heard this phrase on a podcast that I wanted to share: “Earn your own credibility by d…[Read more]

Good morning everyone!

Weigh in on Friday.

I did so well on the Break FAST! I may have had larger bites but I remind myself of how I broke another personal record with the way I have been able to diet over holidays. The strategy that seems to work is not touching the complex carbs (bread, pasta, rice, etc) or even fruit. The sugar stokes me and…[Read more]

Wow PIA! You are so close. You will be so happy you stuck with your plan. Our minds sometimes play with us towards the finish line – just stay focused. Remind me of the same.

Hi Shelley!

So glad you’re back at it!! I can’t tell you how many times I stopped and started. NOW IS THE TIME!

I’ll be cheering you on!!!

Let this be SHELLEY TIME!! Everything else comes second to your health. You so deserve putting yourself first. I remember that many people rely on you but you will be stronger for everyone if YOU ARE…[Read more]

You sure are!

Hey Georgia!

I actually go back and forth with bars. I’ve done 3 weeks on bars. Not now. I decide what I need to do in the moment based on where I am in my mind, body and life.

I love CALZONEs! Stopping at 5 B is tough for me. I think part of it is the way we are. I am more of an extremist (all or nothing) with a touch of middle ground…[Read more]

You are going to love every moment

Fantastic!

Good morning everyone!

Wt: 118.6 (up 1.2)

Well I knew that I would be up after a little too big of a portion of veggies with LOTS of salt. Water weight will be off tomorrow. Feeling excited about process.

Today is a fast day and I will have a dinner tonight. So really, I am only missing lunch. Easy peasy.

So happy to have the day off from…[Read more]

ITALIA! MAGNIFICO

Georgia –

I love ITALIA!! Everything about Italy is beautiful, romantic, inspiring, sexy, relaxing, interesting, etc — I could go on and on! You know the first and only time someone pinched my tush was in Italy — ok, I was 21 but don’t you be surprised if a handsome Italian pinches your butt.

Oh my – that is something worth SKINNY! You can…[Read more]
