<p style=”text-align: left;”>Susan that quote really hit me – you don’t run 25 miles of the marathon and quit. The last mile may be the hardest but it will be amazing at the end!!</p>

I love this thread! Very inspiring!!

Thanks all. I am on my way! I had some extra bites yesterday. Dr Lewis you had mentioned in our Monday call to track what triggered the bites – for me it’s when I get too tired. I get tired and then to try and cope to stay awake or deal with getting grouchy from too much caffeine I have extra bites because I feel like I deserve it and my body j…[Read more]

Day 2 of being super consistent and strict. Just ease and fun! Had 5 bites of a cookie at lunch and will do a bar at dinner. Will be a later dinner due to errands and the season. Lots of hot drinks – tea and decaf coffee and water. Getting much easier! I love the ability to eat anything. Tomorrow will be a bar at lunch and supper out. Didn’t w…[Read more]

Accountability post – sorry been super busy. I am so proud. Here is my scale picture for today – 197.6. Down a pound from yesterday. Slow and steady. A perfect day so far today. Just coffee and water. 5 bites at lunch and the  5 bites of my bar at 530 and then getting in the call for accountability tonight!

Thanks Dr Lewis. I had my 5 bites at lunch – chicken salad with delicious tasty crackers. Threw the rest away. No idea what’s for dinner but it will be out with friends and 5 bites and I am done. This is so freeing!

Plan to have 100%day and report on it!

Hi all- here is my daily check in. Today was great at lunch 100% had my bar and was done. Dinner was closer to 20 bites which is still too many but less than before. My issue was eating alone and distracted and at home. For the first few days I find it hard to eat at home because I get more tempted. The next few nights I am actually out every…[Read more]

Great job!!

Thanks for a great chat Dr Lewis! I promise  a 100% day tomorrow no matter how hard it is!! Time for excellence!

You can do this Ashleen!
