im 322 pounds and im starting today i have ben walking for 9 weeks now with only loosing 10 then gaining it back, im tired of all my exercising for nothing i figured it had to be all the dieting i ben trying just has not worked, this gives me inspiration to try something new.i want my life back im not really enjoying life im just watching it.thankyou so much for sharing your story,you are gonna change many peoples lives.
Anita I have been doing this diet for three weeks or so. I am curious at what time of day you stopped eating and how many meals a day do you actually eat? I eat breakfast at 6AM, lunch at 12 that means I have to have a small meal at 9AM and 3PM (usally nuts, but not eight ounces is that ok?) Dinner is at 6 and then I try to eat nothing after 7PM. You look great and are an inspiration. Thank you.
Anita: Thank God for people like you. I'm 60 years old and need to drop almost as much weight as you have. But with you out there, I know it can be done. Not to beat a dead horse, but I need to make sure what you mean by 8 oz. Is that VOLUME, which I would measure in a measuring cup, or is that WEIGHT, which would be done on a scale? Or can it vary - WEIGHT for meats and VOLUME for soups, etc. Please respond, as I want to do this right. Good luck, and God bless you.
Hi Anita - I'm so happy you were able to answer me since I know this video is several months old. I've been eating this way for 4 days and am amazed how I have not been hungry. I have trouble picturing the quantity of food without using a measuring cup but that will come I'm sure. Have only told my husband because I need his support and nobody else. Easy to hide this way of eating when I can eat normal things! Thank you! you should start a blog or group or something - I'd join!
Anita, you are so inspiring. Do you mind sharing the 8 oz rule in a little more detail? I started trying to do it yesterday and made the assumption the 8 oz was volume, not weight. So I've been eating a measuring cup full every 3 hours and have been very satisfied. Is that what you did? Is measuring volume correct? And did you count milk as food - I've been drinking it instead of eating 2 of the meals but wondering if that's what you did. Thanks for sharing your story!
@worcinoj NOTHING IS OFF LIMITS. If I want it I eat it. I just make better choices. For example I still eat potatoes. When I started out I ate just like before I just ate less. I ate 8 oz of food every 3 hours I use the palm of my hand as a guide it's about 3 oz so I can judge by that!
@worcinoj I don't include liquid because I don't drink anything that is considered "bad" I don't drink pop or sugary things I drink fat free skim milk and unsweetened tea and water and crystal light (generic version LOL) I choose not to eat white bread because when I do eat bread I choose something more nutritious. It's not "off-limits"
Anita, the 8 oz, is that weight or volume? Also did you stop eating at a certain time each day? My wife and I have been losing weight counting calories, but have been hungry and frustrated. We are hopeful that eating more frequently will keep us from feeling so hungry during the day. We want to make sure we do it correctly, so not put back any of the weight we have lost so far. Thanks for the help. You are an inspiration. Jt
