Sat morning: 9-2-23

Weight: 124.6

Whoo Hoo!! I haven’t seen this number in a while. Now I really feel like I will get to 120 by Sept 23 – my wedding celebration. I really want to go down to 118 so I can have that 2 pound leeway.

I made it through a really tempting party situation. I had 5 B and stopped and had a GREAT time at the event. I awoke…[Read more]

I am going strong on this Labor Day Challenge!

Thursday and Friday were great and it is showing on the scale. Yesterday was a challenging event but I rocked it. I will post details in my journal.

I have a plan for bars x2 today. I know I will do it! Tomorrow – I’m going to another event but I’m bringing my own 5 B meal. Not sure what that will…[Read more]

Thursday: 127.4

Good morning everyone! This will be day 4 on perfect 5 B eating and I’m feeling proud of myself and STRONG! I have to remember that every time I resist temptation, I strengthen my ability to resist. I also am reminding myself that NOTHING is worth breaking this momentum.

Today should be a relatively easy one. I will have waves of…[Read more]

Day 3! 127.6

happy Wednesday, everyone. Yesterday I felt the hunger but it was manageable. I am back to doing 5Bite perfectly. That one extra bite of anything it’s crazy how now that I have eliminated any sugar, free products like sodas, gum, cough, drops, sugar-free Jell-O, the cravings have almost disappeared, and it’s only the start of day…[Read more]

Hi Rachel-

Great work! I struggle to be perfect too. I have had sooo many false starts lately. What I will say…when I’ve been perfect – it’s actually easier. Little to no cravings or hunger. When I add an extra bite other than meal time, or pop a sugar-free candy or piece of gum, or a diet soda – the hunger revs up.

I completely agree with…[Read more]

Way to go Allison! So so happy for you. Your way is working. As you get closer to goal you may shift things. The longer you do the plan, the less interested in food you become. You don’t have to think about that now. One day at a time.

Amazing progress!

Good morning and thanks everyone!

Weight today 128.2 – pretty good after my mini – moon. I’m on bars this week. I really want to get to 120 by Sept 23 – if not 118. One day at a time.

I’ve noticed that without the diet sodas I am not as hungry. Water and black coffee and bars. That’s it!

Thank you Michelle and Allison for your kind words.…[Read more]

Welcome back Rachel!!

nothing works faster than this diet when we fully commit.

Congratulations on your graduation. What an accomplishment!

now you really have time to focus on you!! After a few uncomfortable moments –  you’ll be rocking. Just think about it… This way give me off you in half the time of any other Diet.

I’ll be doing this wi…[Read more]

Still here and going strong!!! Did bars yesterday, today and committing to bars until Saturday. 11 dieting days to wedding. Let’s see what this body can do !!!!

Wow!! Amazing job Allison. So thrilled for you. Dr Lewis’s diet works best when done to the letter. I’ve also tried to tweak in the past and it just stalls the process.

so so happy for you!! Let’s go to goal Baby!!

Feeling very motivated!! Let’s keep the momentum!!!

Hi Shelley-

I am so glad you’re back! You have figured out that gluten doesn’t work and you’re feeling better. That’s great! I also tried big volumes of low calorie food, and although that can work for maintaining weight, it is not a good method for losing weight. It also can definitely make us gain weight when we want to eat foods other than…[Read more]

I really want 7 perfect 5 bite days! Last night’s call connected the dots as to why extra bites completely slow down the weight loss process.

I want to be 127 pounds by Monday. That is going to take some hard work and I’m going to do it. NO EXTRA BITES

Today – tuesday – I had a power crunch bar. Dinner soon – 5 bite meal or bar.

It was a great call last night! I’ve been working with Dr. Lewis for approx 7 years to maintain my weight loss and I learned so much. Don’t want to add anything with carbon which is everything except water.

Had a few bumps this weekend but managed to maintain. I am going to be in the 120s in a few days. Hoping by Thursday or Friday.

Can’t wait to see you guys on the chat!

Allison- That’s good advice. I need to try that.

Just had my snickers Samantha!! Thanks for the encouragement. I forgot how scrumptious those bars are sans the tummy rumbles that I get from the low carb/low sugar bars.
