I agree with lbee217. Try having two of the snack sized snickers per DAY…also you could try spliting a tv dinner into 2 meals…half a tv dinner is 5 bites and that would only give you 300 cals for the DAY…just keep on trucking honey!

Hey guys!

Sorry it took so long to update…I still dont have the internet at my house …so anyways, I have been following the diet…well actually i messed up (sortof) for 3 days with my bites…I would say that because i noticed that even tho I was eating "so little" I was still hungry! And at that time I was just guessing my bites (I wasnt…[Read more]

Thanks Arleen and Dr. Lewis!
Well those could be some of the the things I could say. I was thinking about it last night while laying in bed and another thing I could say is "I’ve eaten a big lunch" and then I just bring my 5 bite regular meal (therefore not differing my plan at all)..I dont know but I REALLY dont want to screw up. I just want to…[Read more]

Thanks guys!!! I really appreciate it and your answers took a big weight off my shoulders!

Thank you Dr. Lewis!!

I have a question. How many bites would you say is in a boiled egg?

Because I’m only subsisting on granola bars I was thinking about eating a boiled egg for lunch to ensure I get protein.

Thanks

Hey!

I like the idea of that…maybe the reason why I keep failing is because I look at it like a ‘4 month’ affair. Well today has been perfect yet again, but I did something different. Usually I just stick to granola bars but when I got home I was craving more protein so instead of my usual granola bar I had a slice of deli beef, a slice of deli…[Read more]

Thank You Al!!

I just, honestly this is something I REALLY WANT…but for some reason I cant get my fat body to communicate this want with my brain and psychological being. I wish there a drug that could just hypnotize me for the next 4 months until this is done LOL…thankfully i can say day one is over

Ok, Im taking a chewable vitamin now but it is Jamieson brand and not centrum…anyways i find it so hard to successfully start this with so many events going on in my life..for example, mothers day, my mom’s birthday etc…and then I started this new job yesterday as a nanny and the family kept trying to feed me. I could only say no so many times…[Read more]

I know!! I just dont want to tell myself that I will lose 40pds per month because if it doesnt happen, I will get really depressed and binge …But I have a clear cut goal in mind that I am working to achieve so hopefully that keeps me on track. Are there any specific vitamins or supplements one should be taking while on this?

Thank you!

Well I went to the gym today on my first official day on this and it was actually not that bad. I didnt feel super tired, actually there was one point in my workout where I got a sudden burst of energy! I was so proud of myself and I stuck to my 5 bites per meal (I just have granola bars- 130 cals a piece and smaller than a snickers…[Read more]

You lost 95lbs!!!! Or maybe I read wrong…either way thats great!

That’s great! Keep up the good work, it can only get better from here

Im really jealous of him

I dont know about Tic tacs but I do chew a piece of gum once in a while to get my mind off the food cravings i seem to be having ALL DAY

Ok Dr. Lewis, so I weighed myself this morning and I am 209.8…I hope this is helpful for your chart.

1) Your starting weight- 221
2) Your goal weight- 110-135
3) How much weight you’ve lost thus far- 12 pounds more or less
4) How long you’ve been on the diet- since Tuesday (7 days today)

***However keep in mind that I did cheat so Im sure had…[Read more]

I love your comments Dr. Lewis. They are always so encouraging!

Well it doesn’t have to be a snickers bar but at least something of the same weight (2 oz or 59g). I might do granola bars after my second week and alternate every second week. Also this differs from the Atkins diet in that Atkins restricts carbs severely (mind you for the first two weeks, but even after that you can only consume maybe 150g of…[Read more]

Precisely!

LOL thanks Rae!!!

And yes, at the moment I am only doing Snickers bars, though I did deviate yesterday and had a Twix bar instead (its a little bit less in weight, but whatever )…Im kind of excite to see where I’m at on Tuesday, I know I will be between 206 and 209 just because the Dr. expects a weight loss of 15 pounds per week and I’m 3…[Read more]
