Thanks Sharon. Right now, you and I have about the same amount of weight to lose! So let’s do it!!!

And BTW – I love your video chats. They are very inspiring!!

Thanks Danica!!!!!

Thanks Susan! I’ll see you at the finish line. Wow – you only have 9 lbs to go!!! Yesssss! Way to go!!!!!!

Welcome greenmoon1! You can definitely lose 10 lbs in 1 week. I know – because I just did it! I lost 10.5 lbs to be exact!!!  I started off at a low weight also – so hitting a double digit weight loss in the first week is completely feasible. I also tried to do the 5BD on my own in the past – and maybe lost a maximum of 5 lbs before I caved in to…[Read more]

Wow personal trainer! – you are going to thin and toned at the same time! Way to kill 2 birds with 1 stone!

Way to go!!!! 11 lbs in 1 week is incredible!!! Amazing results ! Proud of you !

So great !!

Dr. Lewis – I’m staying focused. No extra bites allowed. I’m not going to slip down that slippery slope. In the past, my mindset has been- “well, I ate a little bit more than I should have- so what the hell – I might as well finish everything – day is ruined already.” But never again! Changing my mindset. Weigh In Day is Thursday June 27. I’m…[Read more]

LOL – Dr. Lewis – except when he’s pushing Guacamole and Chips on me ! Hahhaha. But no – he is a very good role model. He makes me want to get to the Finish Line even faster – so that I can start my maintenance mode STAT.

Dr. Lewis – I felt both AMAZING and POWERFUL  leaving all the extra food behind. Come to think of it – I was not hungry on the way home. In fact I was not hungry for the rest of the night. It was liberating.

Later on that same night, my husband asked me if I wanted guacamole and chips. I was like – “Dude, we just ate 2 hours ago!” But he went on…[Read more]

Woh Rachel – 1/2 a Snickers Bar! Super Powers indeed!!! Double digit weight loss heading your way.

Thank Letileti for the advice.

Another thing is to always be grateful for the food and to smell the amazing aroma of it before you eat it. Do this even with the Snickers Bar. I think it adds to the eating experience.

Yesss!!! Susan – you got this. Your finish line is soooo darn close. I will be weighing in Thursday as well. I’m so proud of your accomplishment thus far! Dang girl – 116 lbs lost! You are amazing!!!!

Looking forward to seeing everyones amazing results!!! I know that I will definitely be inspired!!!!!

Susan – this quote is sooooo true “The extra fat self -promotes. When you get thin, you won’t want to over eat.”- Dr. Lewis.

My husband dropped about 40 lbs last year. He was working on our deck and had no time to eat. He was on the 5BD and didn’t even know it. After he lost all the weight, he got shredded at the gym. He’s down to about 5-6%…[Read more]

I ate real food tonight for dinner instead of a Snickers bar. I was pretty nervous because I wasn’t sure if I was going to be able to stop after 5 bites. But I did! I also ordered from the kids menu so that I wouldn’t have a humongous plate of food in front of me. Even the kids meal was too large ! The meal consisted of a beef taco and rice and…[Read more]

I believe in you! You can do it. Sorry I won’t get to meet you on tonights chat – but I will nonetheless be rooting for you!! Stay focused 

It’s great that you view hunger now as a positive thing! Thats a great mindset. I am also an emotional eater. In the past, I found that I always searched for something “crunchy” to eat when I was bored.  Now if I ever feel that way – I eat crushed ICE.  It’s amazing how satisfying it is to hear the “crunch” vs. popping a “silent” piece of gum in m…[Read more]

Awesome Danica!!!!

I feel the same way – I’m in control and I’m not “hangry” anymore and this is only the beginning of Day 5 for me! I also feel very calm now, whereas in the beginning, I was so scared of being hungry and felt extremely agitated and uneasy. I was counting down every minute until my next Snickers Bar. Now I feel totally relaxed…[Read more]
