Dr Lewis, I did o.k today.. for first day.!   not perfect but I will be.    I didn’t eat anything this morning except hot tea and water.

Then my grandchildren came about 9 AM.  Oh my, I was worried because at 1 and 3 years old……they wear me out.  We played outside, went for a walk,…[Read more]

Good day today. Almost perfect

Thanks Dr Lewis,
I did read the book. I have it sitting here in front of me now. I promise to read it again…now…and I will check the 6 times a day. I forgot that was in there.

Good to know about maintenance. I’ve been maintaining under 184 since I think 2015 when I got down from 230 to 184. I know its not enough though. .

I had joined…[Read more]

I loved the chat with Dr Lewis and Megan.
All the doubts and confusion have kept me from loosing.
(not an excuse, it is the truth)

Megan said a lot of things that I say to myself or someone else says to me all the time.
Doubts:
My metabolism slows down if I don’t eat 6 small meals a day.
If I eat breakfast I will increase my metabolism.
I need to…[Read more]

Right, Shelly. Be sure to take care of yourself. Killing yourself doesn’t improve the health of your loved ones.

I was extremely over tired. And had some PTSD from it. But we went to hawaii the next week and enjoyed my time with my family. Im at 184 but have gone down two sizes in a short.

Im riding my cat trike…[Read more]

That was an awful week. Watching a 17 mth old get bloid draws and inserting I.V.s.

My daughter is changing her diet to

My 17 mth old granddaughter was admitted tuesday to the hospital. 4 specialist working on her. Finger has an infected bone and joint.

The last 2 days have been stressful. Not letting a 17 month eat or drink anything until 4 pm is impossible Because the ortho specialist dropped her case after the mri we had to take…[Read more]

Thanks Dr Lewis,
It has been much easier to do 5 to 7 bites for lunch and dinner of Whole Foods and not have the craving at night.
It helps me if I understand how my body works (the craving and binging for carbs)
Because I started thinking I had a severe eating disorder and now I understand it.

Fine Shelly, if that’s what you…[Read more]

This has been an answer from God to me

I know now why i binged in the evenings
1. I was tired
2. I ate carbs and sugar during the day. Even a snickers set me

So this is why i turn to carbs
So why do we crave high-carbohydrate foods such as pasta, candy bars or cinnamon buns? These refined, or processed, carbohydrates give us an immediate…[Read more]
