Absolutely.  Am I still happy about the loss? 1000%  I refuse to let the small loss set me back and get me upset.  I can’t be sad about being in the 240s finally, and the scale is heading in the right direction.  I agree Dr. Lewis, every meal is a chance to start again.  I can do this…[Read more]

Yesterday, I had no breakfast, lunch or snacks.  I ate a total of ten bites yesterday at dinner time, of a tuna sandwich.  Today, I am going to try shifting to 5×2 as Dr. Lewis suggested.

Did not stick to the bars, and had a few glasses of wine over the weekend.  My cycle showed up on Friday night – I get one every 2-3 months.  Gotta love perimenopause & bad decisions. That’s what has got me here, so I am making a choice to change that moving forward.

I stuck to my 10 bites each day, but I didn’t stick to the bars. Progress!
