30 Days of Low Carb 5 Bites...
mommieof2 Sat Jun 16, 2012 12:19 pm
Okay I know myself and Debbie are in and I'm sure snow white will join as well, but here's the plan we are going to do 5bites of low carb foods for 30 days. Let's increase our weight loss, energy and self esteem.. Who's with me ladies???? Let's look hot in July when we need those swim suits and for those who wear short those sexy legs to show off....
Starting weight for me on Day 1 189.0
B- will be Tea and not the buttered rusk I normally eat.
L- will be an apple, possibly a cheese string and a yogurt
D-will be yogurt, apple sauce. Im hoping the fiber from the apple keeps me regular..
Let's get to it...

I'm in!!!!!
I will most likely stick with the bulletproof coffee for lunch as much as I can b/c it's working for me for now! It is zero carb. Then 5 bites of meat...if the meat occasionally has breading on it, I'm not going to stress about that. Lots of water and I'm going to start more regular exercise when I hit the 50 pound loss mark (175).
Okay, so 30 days! June 16th-July 15th.
Day 1 weight: 180.1

Morning all,
So I had to count carbs everywhere yesterday. I didn't realize how many carbs I was actually eating in a day, yesterday I kept my carbs around 30 for the entire day.
Day 1 189.0
Day 2 187.4
That's a 1.6lb loss...
Food intake
B- tea with 1% half and half
L- 1/2 a pb&j sandwich and applesauce
D-1 apple, yogurt,
Water water water
No exercise just stayed outside, cleaned the car.
On my way down to 170's I'm hoping to be there by next saturday.
Keep up the good work ladies.

So yesterday was an okay day. I honestly ate a bit more than five bites but i did not have dinner.
Day 1 189.0
Day 3 186.6
3.4lb loss I'm good with that and it's only day 3 so that's about a lb a day. I'm also getting closer to the 170's.
I was really thinking I would have gained this morning as most of my Monday weigh in's show I have gained and that's the number I record in my own journal for the 4 weeks out of the month.
Debbie you are doing great with your health issues issue's I'm proud of how you are eating and still losing. Like Kim said it's a new day today. I hope your blood work goes well. Let us know.
Kim welcome aboard.
Snow white I expect to see 179 or below this morning.. Let's see let's see....

Yeah I read about that and commented. You do what's best for you.
As for me I did not weigh in this morning, which is noted in my journal.
Day 1 189.0
Day 4 no weight recorded
I will weigh in in the morning and report it.
For those that are still 5 biting and trying the low carb hang in there and keep shrinking.

Well today is day 5.
Day 1 189.0
Day5 188.4
.06lbs lost but that's up from My monday weigh in. I ate fajita's last night 2 to be exact and it was cooked in soya sauce so I am retaining fluid so I would think that's where my weight is coming from.

Hello Ladies,
Snow white that's awesome that your body is burning again.. I can't wait to see you in the 170's that's exciting for me as well..
Debbie your doing awesome, just keeping your meals simple and healthy for your body and you will lose as well. It's not always about the quickest way to get to your goal as it is the healthiest, however for me I have to see results quick or I get discouraged and quit.
Okay so yesterday I had a hamburger well cheeseburger and like 5 tators in the oven yum-o. While my parents are hear I get to eat all my favorite western food, b/c they will help me eat it, my dh doesn't eat it much he likes his asian food. Anyway I didn't eat a lot through the day so I could have my burger last night.
Day 1 189.0
Day 6 187.4
1.6 lb loss so far. I'm sure it will be more tomorrow b/c I finally after 5 days use the bathroom.

Day 6: 180.6
I was up, but I'm on my way back down! : )))))))
I'm doing low calorie, low carb....totally messing up my hungerstat, but I can get that under control again once I get through this slump! : ))))))))
Michelle, I can't remember that last time I went to the bathroom, seriously. I just had to quit worrying about it. If I'm in pain, I'll do something about it. I decided I'm not going to mess with all those softeners, laxatives, and enemas unless I am in pain. Again, I'm sure it's because of the small food intake. Glad you were able to go!
So glad everyone seems to be losing! Fabulous!

Hi all.. Well I was right the wine burns first.. so my loss was minamal.. but still a loss 
As for the low locomotion movements.. lol I was given the tip to add almonds to my food.. they are very high in fiber and really get things going after a day or two.. the other high fiber low carb wonder is Cocnut flour.. make some coconut flour muffins.. they are very filling.. about 5 bites and are very filling.. I normaly just add the almonds to my meals..that does it for me. 
I was up early this morning so I had to have breakfast was to hungry not to..
B) 5 bites scramed eggs
L) cream of broccoli and cheese soup
D) roasted chicken breast with brown butter sauce
all 5 bites.. the soup too.. Oh how I love to cook.. Yes all of this is under 20 net carbs..Yay.
night time yogurt.. yum
Start..200
day 6 -199
Alright all.. have a super day!

Day 7: 180.3
I was up, but I'm still fighting my way back down!!!! My body is really putting up a fight to cross that threshold into the 170s!!! But I promise, once I break through I will not be returning....I'm doing this once and for all for life! No more up and down! Just down!
I've got a rough weekend ahead of eating situations so I may be fighting and scratching my way back down next week just be right where I am now! But I can do it and I will survive and I will triumph over this!
NO SURRENDER!!!!!

Debbie YAAAAAAAY!!!!! Look at you under 200 that's just awesome girl. Keep up the good work. Hope you are feeling well.
Sarah welcome to the forum. I agree with the ladies you can achieve your goal quickly if you stick to the low carb and 5 bites. It's not hard to do if your really dedicated to losing it. You will see I have falling off the wagon but a few times already but no longer than a day or so and I really never put on loads of weight. Good luck.
Snow white your okay that one pound will be gone in no time. You will be under 180 next week. I'm sure of it.
Afm I have not been totally low carbing since my parents are here. I've eat some pasta salad, some cookies and mostly I've eating meat and stuff but I'm still up almost 2lbs. I will do my official weight on monday and record that, but right now Aunt flo is here and I'm retaining water like no bodies business, which sucks and makes me feel icky. I finally graduated on Saturday we went to an Afghani restaurant and I had a chicken wrap and a few bites of rice. Keep up the good work ladies and I will check in again. Sorry it's been spiratic and I haven't had time to stop by everyone's journal but I will catch up.
