You look so great! Have a fun time!!

The hunger and cravings ALWAYS pass. Think of them as waves that crash on the shore. Feel and notice them coming and watch them crash into calm waters that recede back into the place from whens it came.

Keep up the fantastic work!! Love reading your food logs.

Fantastic Job!! I think that it is so important to take care of ourselves. I also used to feel guilty and thought maybe I was being frivolous. Not at all. Now I realize that my kids are looking close at me by WATCHING what I do. How I act and treat myself and others in times of calm and in times of stress! I would want them to take care of…[Read more]

yay Corey! You are speeding toward your finish line! GO GO GO

Dr. Lewis is the BEST MOTIVATOR!! If not for him, I don’t think I would have reached my goal or stayed there.

Now, I hear his voice in my head and it has helped to keep me in maintenance over the last 7-8 months.

I actually took off for a dinner the day before my bday and went right back on 5B for my birthday present to myself. I was in…[Read more]

You can do it! Definitely stay accountable with your weight. Love the idea of taking some time in the morning to mentally reset. Write cards or stickies and post them on fridge, food cupboards or have pop-up reminders to encourage you to stay on track. Tell yourself that you WILL STICK TO YOUR GOAL NO MATTER WHAT!!

It is true that it is so much…[Read more]

Welcome DesignDiva!

You will love this diet bcs you can choose whatever food you like. Also, it is the fastest moving diet out there!! I have lost my last bit of weight and thanks to DR Lewis, challenged myself to reach a lower weight that I never thought possible for me — and I love it.

Word of advice – continue to be strict as possible to…[Read more]

Wow ! You are doing great!! Love the idea of chewing your food longer.

Thank you everyone for the kind words!! I am so excited about being on this journey with all of you. I used to believe that the work was over at goal but our health and food choices (including eating behavior) is a lifelong commitment. It is sooo much easier than the weight loss phase. It is much easier to maintain bcs once you get to that…[Read more]

The past is behind us. All that matters is the road ahead. I picture it lined with a red carpet with lights and camera ready for your close-up !! Be that movie star!! Be that Winner at the finish line — if you’re not a red carpet girl. Just see it and believe it!! Make it happen. I KNOW YOU CAN!! WITH 100 percent certainty — YOU CAN!!

Gayle

So happy to see how well you are doing!! How fantastic! I don’t think I’ve tried to chew bites for so long but will try.

You are so close to your personal goal!

Gayle

We have ALL been there! GET CONTROL NOW! Make a plan of how you can avoid anything that derails you. I have been known to get a big black garbage pail and load it up with junk food, loaves of uneaten bread, whole jars of nut butters — whatever is tempting (some days everything). I will even take open leftovers and throw it out and put soap on it…[Read more]
