How do I get my focus back?
I started the diet 8/10/11 and lost over 20 lbs. and got down to even lower than my goal weight. I went on vacation 2 weeks ago and, although I did not go crazy, I got off the diet. Now I have i...
Re: Peas and green beans only for legumes?
Peas are a no-no so I would avoid them. You may want to psyche yourself up to like beans and lentils better because for various reasons they are important on this diet. Maybe you should try expe...

I skipped it yesterday and am feeling damn good, down to 192 (8 lbs in the first 5 days!) CHEAT DAY!
Blah. Thanks for the hard truth. I had just worked it in my head that tomorrow was cheat day, so delaying it takes a little wind out of my sails. ...
Taking your cheat day early in the 1st week?
Hey everyone, first question... in my first week. I've been on since Tuesday and been very strict so far. My only cheats are a sprinkle of cheese on some refried beans and five macadamia nuts aft...
My first diet ever. I know, you hate me.
I'm on day 3. I'm not sure how I'm doing, if I'm cheating, or really whats going on. I've never dieted before. It's finally getting tough, so I turn to you. I'm not sure how to repost it here, so...

Member intro: Denver resident
Read Tim's book and now trying to implement it.
Is there anyone actually following cold therapy?

Thanks for the welcome, hopefully this will work for me.
I hope it is too many. I do not love beans, I just thought we needed beans at every meal.

Re: Typical Daily Meals
