Great job Allison! I love your strategy of thinking that you had Gastric Bypass. Sometimes I will tell my brain – 5 Bite is easy once I get reset – I could be on a full fast. It’s so funny but on vacation I was eating food throughout the day and hardly satisfied. On 5 Bite, after 5 days, I have little appetite and don’t obsess about food the way I…[Read more]

Hi Allison and Carmel!

The best thing about being part of swimming station is the contact you can have with Dr LEwis. No one is as motivating and inspiring as he is. I know Allison has done this before so she knows how quickly and effectively this diet can be and getting us the results we want.

I maintained my weight loss for about five years…[Read more]

Hi Allison and Dr Lewis

I’ll be joining you guys tonight!

Allison, I read that you had been a member before and you were successful on 5 bite. Me too! It’s the only plan that has ever worked for me to lose weight and keep it off. I also recently gained a back  about 12 pounds.  Time to take it off and no plan works as fast. My goal is to be s…[Read more]

Day 5! 131.6. Glad the scale is moving in the right direction. Bar for lunch and prob bar for dinner.

Tomorrow vacation starts. Will do the best I can and want to stay intentional about eating.

Wishing everyone a great day.

Day 4

I gained 2.6 pounds but only had my 2 bars. Perhaps it could be that I didn’t drink enough water and had himalayan sea salt. Maybe I’m constipated? I will continue like it never happened.

Day 3 (130.8)

Didn’t sleep well last night but not going to let it deter me from having a perfect 5 B day. I have my payday and snickers ready. I can’t believe how much thinner I already feel. It will be exciting to be back in the 120s by Friday. Is there something wrong with me that I am actually enjoying this? Starting to get excited for…[Read more]

You /WE can do it!! I will be doing bars till saturday bcs I will be going out of the country. I will be vacationing with another couple. I will keep to 5 bites but can’t eat a bar when out to dinner.

When I travel I will often to bars on travel day back.

Way to go Marlene! This is so much more fun with a friend!!! And excited that Karly joined us last night. I call 5 bite my secret liposuction technique. We will be skinny again in no time.

Day 2 and feeling great! (132.4)

Thank you Dr. Lewis for always providing me with the inspiration I need to get rebalanced. I posted the blurb below on the 5 B facebook group.

Black coffee and water are my breakfast. It feels so comforting to not be pulled to food. Later – I expect the hunger to approach. For those of us that have done this -…[Read more]

Hi Shelly-

So nice of you to reach out and appreciate the kind words. I am currently maintaining right now. My focus right now is healthy eating, exercise (for fun and fitness), sleep and living an abundant life. I’ve heard you’re having issues with inflammation and I bet Dr. Lewis will help inspire you to get the excess weight off that might be…[Read more]

Happy Birthday Dr Lewis!! You changed my life!! Before I met you I never thought it possible to achieve my health goals. I came from a family of eating disorders and morbid obesity. I thought my whole life to not be in either of those categories but still struggled with 20 extra pounds and the least that I could never attain thin body. Now, in my…[Read more]

day 39

Had some majorly weird and unexplained difficulties with blood pressure and heart rate being super low so I’m taking a pause to consult with my doctor. I feel like I have all my bases covered but there seems to be something I’m missing that is unaccounted for, but since I don’t know what it is, I’m not willing to risk just pushing through…[Read more]

Days 37 +38

Still moving along, did bars for a day to help get the sense of bite size, might do longer stints with that, we’ll see! Excited to see what I’m capable of at this point. Hit 163 yesterday and it held today so I’m somewhat already ahead of expected loss for the week. I’d be pretty stoked if I lost another lb by Monday. A little bit of…[Read more]

Day 36

Did my 13 mile route, came home took an hour break, then trained parkour for another two hours. Fat is a very powerful fuel!

Yay Gayle! You got it!

Day 14/18

Had one day off last weekend. Only 3 pounds from goal. I’ve decided that I like how I look at 120 esp with muscle. I should get there by sat or at least be close. This week the wedding celebrations begin tomorrow but I am only taking off the wedding day and then back on plan. Want to be back at goal by next weekend.

Day 35

Scootin’ along still, pretty amazed at what my body is capable of physically while still just doing bars. I feel pretty lucky to be taking care of this while I’m younger.

Days 31-34

Thanks Gayle, yeah I’ve pretty much fully recovered thankfully. I have lost my sense of smell though! oh well, I think it’s helping me along anyhow. Food is even less enticing currently.

Down another 3 and half lbs this week to 166.5 so almost 22 lbs in the last 30 days. Possibly trying bars this week to really dial in the…[Read more]

Day 9/18

yesterday and today were challenging but I stayed on track.  Tomorrow is a short work day so it shouldn’t be so tough.

hang in there everybody.
