Pia

Thanks Sharon, I like doing bars but I feel it is difficult to do when socializing, then it’s easier to do 5 bites of whatever everyone else is eating but on the days I can I wil definitely be doing bars I feel it is so liberating to know that the bar is exactly 5 bites, then you don’t have to worry about whether your bite size was right or not !…[Read more]

Really good way to look at it, thanks

Well done for getting back on Sharon, I have been too ashamed and too lazy to get back myself, I seem to keep loosing and gaining the same 5-6 pounds, and so far I haven’t even been down to the weight that Dr Lewis suggests I should be at, so I feel really disappointed with myself. But from tomorrow I’m restarting, I will weigh myself and update…[Read more]

You are doing so well Heather :laugh: ! This diet is great 9 pounds in a week is amazing :laugh:

Is HT007’s name Pia too :laugh: ? Because I definitely don’t deserve “well done” for these last few days I have completely lost it and have been eating like a pig. But tomorrow I’m back again, starting with 2 snickers a day, I have holiday from work and a lot of social things going on but I want to try to get around it so I can loose those last…[Read more]

I completely get you

I used to cave in the every evening, I was mindlessly popping food in my mouth while cooking or while the family was eating, I did it without even thinking, but then I found a way to remind myself not too do that every evening I have my 5 bites and then before I start preparing dinner I pop in my mouthguard or retainers (think you can buy them…[Read more]

:laugh:

You looked great even before, but what a difference especially around your waist, you’ve done really well, I regret not taking any before picture, but I didn’t really like to see myself the way I used to be :lol:

I’m exactly like that too, but at least now I have found a way to loose those 3 kg in just a few days, it’s so great !

Wow you are really slim, perfect, you must be so super excited

Thank you, I’m not all the way there yet I still have 2-3 kg to go for my bmi to be 18,5, your bmi must be less than 18,5? I watched the chat from Monday it really gave me the incentive I needed to keep going it was very inspiring

Yes let’s have some progress pictures. You press that box that says “add file”.

That’s amazing I just realized you’re 109 pounds, you must be tiny are you still going for more?

I have been doing this for a long time, the 8lbs is my total loss I went down to 119 then I gained and went back up to 130 I haven’t tracked my loss this week yet but 8 lb or more would be great.

Yes great, bring on the hunger, like that parable “little worms eating my fat”, I’m really hungry all the time from I wake till I go to sleep all I think about is food, my hunger stat should be set now after almost a week on bars, but I will power through let “the worms eat up all my fat”. :laugh:

Pia I think even when we go out, I am trying to avoid it in this period, we should focus on enjoying staying with other people.

We should be there to stay with them, not just to eat or overeat.

I know it is HARD.

It is HARD to change our habits.
Once changed ….That’s done!

So true.

Yes you’re right mind and habit changing game, and I will keep fighting.

“Feasting mind” love that expression, that’s exactly what I feel when I go out, I feel like I have too eat everything on my plate and every leftover on my kids plates, and then I have to feel so stuffed that I can hardly get up, breaking those habits is really hard!

I’m the same and I really have to concentrate to make sure I don’t mindlessly put food in my mind, sometimes I feel like the food just found its own way to my mouth, I think I must’ve had at least 10 extra bites today and I’m so annoyed with myself because I really was planning to be perfect for 1 week at least so I could finish this journey!
