Interesting! It sounds like you’re finding what you really like for your five bites on a meal by meal basis. I’m impressed with how well you’re doing at work! Back to back calls for ten hours is costly for your focus and mental energy. Dr Lewis suggested to me to have a different food for each of my bites of a meal, and it has been helpful to me.…[Read more]

Hi there everyone!

I think that tomorrow will be when I reach my goal.

0.4 lbs to go!

Of course, we shall have to re-evaluate with a pinch around the belly button.

Patience is the way back to health.

Food lasts a long time on this diet!

Thank you Dr Lewis!

I appreciate your input.

I’ll wait at least a month into stabilization in maintenance to go for a lab test.

One foot in front of the other until then!

Hi again old thread!

Questions for Dr Lewis:

When is the right time for me to have my thyroid medicine updated? I’ve had a thyroidectomy (post thyroid papillary cancer) and my thyroid medicine is at a certain dose. Should I go have a check-up to see if the dose needs lowering, now that my body mass is smaller? Should I wait for a few weeks past…[Read more]

Wonderfully done! It’s interesting to notice all these changes in out thinking and behaviour. Thank you for sharing!

Congratulations!

Congratulations! A new week to work through – we know how to do this!

Nicely done JulieNom!

Congratulations on feeling free of food noise!

I’m skipping bubbly water altogether. The gas feels harsh on my stomach. I love natural spring water with nothing added. That water feels soft and soothing to my stomach.

That’s lovely JulieNom!

That’s great JulieNom!

We are learning and learning. I feel emotion, mostly sadness, while on this diet. Perhaps a few times a day I feel sad. I don’t mind. It seems to me like memories that I buried with comfort food years ago are now coming to the surface. Letting go instead of trying to soothe myself with food is sort of interesting. I don’t fear hunger at the…[Read more]

It will be interesting to see if shopping urges and habits calm down and follow along with the weight reduction and hunger stabilization of this diet programme. I’m looking forward to experiencing something new in this area of life.

Lovely done!

Alaska Gal that makes sense to me!

I’ve tossed out the bread that I had saved in the freezer. I wanted the space for other more beloved food items!

I had actually made up my mind not to buy more food until I’ve finished what I have, and then I saw a bunch of yummy French quiche pies when I was out and about, and I went ahead and bought more food…[Read more]

I like this JulieNom! It’s a new time for us.

A time of plenty, and of having a stash and not eating it all automatically.

Our stomachs and brains and other organs are thanking us!

Well done JulieNom!
