I say this to myself all the time. And to hubby in hopes he’ll one day listen.

I think the key to black coffee is making sure it’s hot. Lukewarm tastes bad to me. 

I screwed up that dinner but the next day I’ve been perfect. I just want to say what made me screw up that gala… it was dark, lots of diff stations like a wedding. Hardly knew anyone. Didn’t know there was seating at all until later bc it was way in the back. Then they served amazing cookies and Cinnabon on the way out the door.

But I’m good…[Read more]

I also hate eating at home bc seem to mess it up this last week. Even today.  Good at lunch, bar for dinner but then I couldn’t not have Chilean sea bass that I bought for the family.  But maybe still not a terrible day, just not a good one.  Thanks everyone for your thoughts. Up 5 lbs since last sun. 121 today. Goal is 113

Thank you Dr Lewis ! Bars it is!! I want it ! Part of my problem is an emotional low this wk… previously I was living out a fantasy of a rock star but my teacher and I had a falling out and so I’m hoping to find a new inspiration for my weight loss journey. Somehow it’s tied to being involved with music.

That’s really meaningful and special. Thank you for sharing. Hope it’ll help me get back on track

That sounds great Gayle! Was nice to be on the chats with you last few times. I feel like I know you so well from all the previous chats I’ve viewed. Lol.  I’m inspired by the clothing models from revolve.com. I look at their legs and tell myself that I’m not stopping till I get to that look. I love it! If I didn’t look at models in short dresses,…[Read more]

Hi Bienedp6,

i wanted to tell you that I’ve a lot about that over the last 2 mos and actually “wasted” 2 mos of my Orangetheory membership bc I couldn’t get out of it that fast. $150/ mo. But it was well worth the wasted $300 to be 123 instead of 140, where I was for 5 mos of my hardcore training there.  I was taking low key tennis lessons…[Read more]

That’s an MD’s confirmation to what I’ve  thought too! Really important thought process… Thank you Dr Lewis.

That’s a great question Shelly, bc motivation is why we do anything… here’s mine… more a reminder to myself than anything else… Dressing up for parties in slinky outfits regardless of one’s age, wearing tight jeans, looking at Instagram pages of models, looking at Gucci or Louis Vuitton Photobooks on Instagram. Victoria’s Secret Instagr…[Read more]

April 25, 2016 is an amazing chat!!! So inspiring!!

Dear Shelly,

I just want to say thank you for all that you’ve put into by being very real and open over these yrs on this forum. I’ve watched the 2014/15 videos and feel I know you so well. Your journey is inspiring and real and makes us all feel like we can do it too! Bc although this is the easiest diet in the world, it’s still harder than…[Read more]

This thanksgiving dinner was the most guilt free eating orgy I’ve ever had. Today I’m back on and skipped lunch to help put me back to my new normal of 124.   I will have to eat a little tonight bc we’re getting together at my moms house. I could skip lunch again tomorrow!

Hey Rebekah! You’re here!!! Yay! So happy for your weight loss!  I’m glad you said it bc we all experience this hate talk on some level. I def heard some last night bc I was looking fabulous! I ate a lot,  2.8 lbs to be exact! So the diet is back on full swing today, no matter how anyone feels about it! Lol

Hi everyone and Dr. Lewis,

I’m discovering that I love seafood. To the point that I’m making screen shots online menus of every nearby seafood place!!!! Fri I ate 5 oysters on the 1/2 shell, sun 4 pan fried scallops. Both times never even touched the nearby dessert or French fries. 

March 30, 2015 is the most inspiring lecture !

Love that! I’m using a food scale to keep myself honest with food. Maybe that would be of use for you too
