Congrats Mel! 9 lbs is amazing! I’m glad to know that when I am sticking to my two 5 bites meals tomorrow there are others who are doing the exact same. I am not alone. Thanks!

Heather, reading your story was inspirational. You are so close to your goal and it is quite impressive. What a great chance to make such a change in your career and location all while being 40 lbs lighter. And you are so young. I’m 58 and just now tackling this. From where I stand, I can only wish I was that young when I found this amazi…[Read more]

Hi there! Thank you for checking in with me. I’m actually not doing very well at all. Last week I felt on top of the world. This week I feel stressed, emotional and anxious. We are closing on the sale of our house tomorrow and moving cross country and the stress has made it very hard to focus and I’ve def had some slip ups and mistakes. I’m afraid…[Read more]

That’s funny! I heard another mantra…”90% is a *itch, 100% is a breeze”. So true. All-in is way easier that almost-in.

Hello, I’m returning to 5BD from my last time here on August 2. The amount of effort to keep my foot to the pedal got overwhelming after 4 months…and to be honest it was inconsistent or I would have finished by then. I left off having lost a total of 28 lbs. I’m returning having gained back 8 of those lbs. Thankfully I’m still down 20 lbs. I…[Read more]

Hi! I am doing another reset and this is day 2. I am drinking lots of coffee and water to help with the hunger. I found this mantra in an old post on the forum and it is REALLY helping me stick with 5 bites: “Better in the trash, than on my ass.”

I’m officially down 40 pounds using the 5 bite diet! It took about 4 months with some breaks in between but I’m proud of myself. I saw my PCP today and my normally high blood pressure was 106/70
I was in shock because I’ve never seen it that low.
Also my fibro flare ups are becoming less and less. My energy levels are up and I feel great! I’ve…[Read more]

<p style=”text-align: left;”>Hi Mel!!</p>
I too lost 30 pounds on this diet before I started messing up, a little extra bite here, a snack there. Luckily, I haven’t gained anything but I’m ready to get focused and get these extra pounds off for good!
I know we can do it! The victory will be so sweet 😊

Doing better today. I was happy to see a 1 pound loss this morning!
I am a little under the weather so I’ve just been resting before we go out of town this weekend. Normally I would want comfort food but not today. I’ve done great so far!

Hi Dr. Lewis! What made me finally commit to perfection was two things. First, I found myself really depressed, and I realized committing to the diet once and for all would make me feel better. The second thing was the community. After reading so many posts on the forum, I wanted to commit and try to be perfect too!! Not just continue to sit…[Read more]
