Kellee journal
I am on day three and I am super grumpy:) Not so much hungry as grumpy! I keep thinking of all the pants that I am going to fit into eventually ...I am hoping that by tomorrow I will be adjusted and nice again!

Re: Kellee journal
I have noticed myself getting a bit more irritable sometimes. But, then I put on my new size 12 pants this morning and realized they are loose! They were tight last week when I bought them! I think that will keep the grumpiness away today. Don't worry...it'll go away!

Re: Kellee journal
This is tough:)
I am getting Frankie (my son) a snack..I steal a bite.
I was cooking dinner last night and I had to "taste" it to make sure it was OK. I stole a few bites of that:)
I would love to have a whole meal and take 5 bites and say that was lovely I am done.
Is is will power I am lacking or is it my brain that is saying HELLO!!!

Re: Kellee journal
To keep me in control. I would have my five bites and quickly throw it out so I wouldnt be tempted. Or buy food that was considered five bites; like a fiber bar, snicker (too sweet for me), mini croissants, etc. Its harder with family, dinner really does become a everyday family event. You can do it though. ^-^

Re: Kellee journal
I am reading different posts this morning and I see we all struggle with the same things!
I am contemplating ordering the book. I have read some of you saying that is helps. Any remarks to that?
I saw Dr Lewis on a webcast and the way he talks about this diet it sounds like a walk in the park. Yet I am struggling so much more this time.
About 8 years ago I had twins. I was at maximum density at that time. I topped out at 215. I came home at 186 and stayed there for 8 months. I finally got sick of it and started walking and eating fewer calories. Then I really started walking and eating even fewer calories. The weight was flying off but all I thought about was food,diet, & calories. The twins were great and I enjoyed being a mom but I did not enjoy what they did to my body:)
Fast forward 6 years I got pregnant. I was so freaked out about gaining all the weight I did the first time. SO I walked my entire pregnancy. In the beginning it was comical at the end it was really comical! I did the 5 bite a few weeks after he was born and the weight came off pretty quick.
The kicker is we ended up moving a few months after that. I am home with Frank and I am sort of unfamiliar with the area to walk in. So here comes the weight. I have started and failed a million other diets. So here I am back again with 5 bites:)

Day 3 :)
Day 3 and I am in the clear. I just want to be able to make it through today.
I have been reading posts all morning. I love the success stories and find they keep me excited about losing the weight. As per Dr Lewis I am looking to get to 118 pounds. Phew I don't think I have seen that since 7th grade. I am in a friends wedding in Sept. I would like to be tight and trim for the kazillion pictures that will be taken. The book should be here Monday so I am looking forward to reading up on all of the information.
As I was laying in bed last night I was thinking to myself why has my weight been such a big deal to me? My husband loves me no matter what I look like. I came to the conclusion that I equate my success in life to the pants I wear. It's silly!
I am a Christian and I have so much to be thankful for. Yet i have always used food to comfort me, excite me and congratulate me. Most of the time I eat it so quickly I don't even taste. I eat so much of it I feel cruddy. I am praying that this adventure can take the focus off of food and put it on God. Food is a gift and shouldn't be abused like I have been abusing it. So maybe I won't be 118 pounds. I would like to walk away when I am satiated not when I am stuffed! I also would like to have a few flattering pictures at this wedding too:)

Re: Kellee journal
Kelleep26,
It looks like this diet is working its magic on you. It really makes it possible for people to do some "inner work" and discover their true relationships with food. You are on a beautiful journey. Your success is just around the corner. I am proud of you. Today will be easy for you.
Take care,
Readyforchange

Re: Kellee journal
Had a good weekend, had more than 10 bites on Sunday. The portions were still on the smaller size. I am slated to get the book today. I look forward to reading it and having all this knowledge. I have watch the you tube episode of the Greg Mandell show about fifty times. I am looking forward to the book.
I am down from last Wednesday about 4 pounds. I usually weigh in the morning and by the afternoon that goes up two pounds. I am not too discouraged, I figure that this will prepare me for cutting my portions down.
I hope all is well with everyone!

Re: Kellee journal
I read Dmac's journal and am in absolute awe of how awesome that weight loss adventure was! I guess I am just wanting to stop thinking about food. I am down five pounds from last Wednesday. This is also to messing around and going to a dinner meeting and eating a whole plate of food. The social aspect is difficult to work around. I may have used it as an excuse.
The book has been truly interesting! The faster off the faster I can get on with my life!
I am blessed and thankful for the knowledge and support you all provide. Even if just by posting you daily struggles I really get a lot from them!
I started 150
today 145
Goal 125
I am gonna rock the snickers bars for a while!

I am struggling and have had a bit of an issue yesterday...so that means back to square one...Maybe I don't want to be thin. Maybe I just don't have the motivation

Well said Dmac!
Dig deep Kelleep. We all have hidden reserves of strength just waiting to be tapped into. Yours is there. You just have to dig down and find it. I know that you can. I believe in you!
RESET. You can do this!
Take care,
