Update.....still doing ESE and have hit 50lbs lost since April 1, 2009. The losses are slowing down as I get closer to my goal. I can trick the body if I eat as normal for about 5 days and then launch back into ESE again. I am more than happy with all my success. As I said nothing else worked for me until I tried ESE. It's been pretty rapid. I have never felt better. I try to walk 6 days a week and I do strength training 3-5 times per week.....I don't want any hanging skin so this is why I keep up the exercise. It has been working....not to mention the definition I have in my legs and arms....loving this new look. There is no finer feeling than having your clothes hang on you every few weeks. Thank god for consignment clothing stores.....I need new sizes every couple weeks it seems. Yah...I'm a happy camper. Good luck to you all.....continued success.

Update on my progress.....using Eat-Stop-Eat. Since April 1, 2009 I have lost 80lbs. I started at 242lbs and as of today I'm 162lbs. My goal is 140lbs. Once I hit my goal I will try to post some before and after pics.....it's been a relatively easy process. I actually never thought I could do it.....but I did.

Woah, that's awesome!! Congratulations and keep up the good work. On your non-Eat Stop Eat days, just curious what your 'normal' days of eating consist of. Also, when breaking a fast do you have the temptation to over eat a bit?

The fasting part of ESE is really easy for me; I work all day and just drink water throughout the day. When the fast is ending though I tend to talk myself into not the greatest choices for dinner. Or after I eat a decent meal, I'll find myself wanting to snack on some nuts or other foods. Sometimes it's hard to gauge what 'normal' is.

I'm still about 35 pounds lighter than I was a year ago at this time so things are going good. A hectic schedule with travel has changed things up a bit, but I am making steady progress.

Thanks for the update and let us know how you are doing.

Because I have been doing the intermittent fasting since April my tummy has shrunk....so getting filled is easy and quick for me. When I come off the fast I get filled super fast so I never tend to over eat. Usually if I'm hungrier it's usually on a non-fast day. I just go with it I just make sure it's healthy stuff. I am human if I wanna go out for beer and wings or pizza I go and never allow my brain to feel guilty about it...so I never gain any extra pounds. As soon as I allow stress or negative emotions take over my weight loss stops dead in it's tracks. I also see myself and imagine myself and refer to myself at 140lbs and a size 5. As if it's already a fact. Since I have steadily started this mind set I have started losing 1 to 2 lbs a day. For the last 3 days I have lost 6 lbs. I usually only fast once a week now...to give my digestive track a break. I eat normally...3 meals a day.....a diet pop a day...if I want a sweet I use jelly beans or jube jubes. I pack as much greenery and vegies into everything I eat. I also take 4tbs of psyllium fiber in some crystal lite 2 times per day before a meal. You need to sock away a lot of water if you take psyllium. I try to keep each meal around 500 cal. I walk an hour a day. No strict rules. Rules tend to make you want to break them. I'm just so used to this way of eating now it's normal for me. I am the happiest I've ever been. This worked for me....becoming a more positive person has also been a key. I was told that the last 20lbs are the worst to lose...everything slows down. Well it has not happened....it's awesome so far. I refuse to listen to the negative. Hope some of my tips help you.....enjoy the proccess....every minute.

Holy Cow!!!

THat is incredible!!

I have never heard of this program. Is it similiar to the Fast 5 Diet?

Fast Five is just eat within a 5 hr window. I like it..but I need to eat a little better in that window

I will for sure have to check out ESE...as in right now

Thank you for the motivation

Would this diet work well for someone needing to lose a signifigant amount of fat?

What do you consider significant....I've lost 80lbs so far and have 22 to go...it will be a total loss of 102lbs. I was 242lbs......now I'm 162lbs....my goal is 140lbs. I started this ESE program April 1, 2009. I lost 80lbs in less than 6 mos. I'm pretty sure it would work at any weight.

OK...just the reviews on the first page of this thread have me sold

To those who have bought, are the bonus packages worth the extra money?

My experience with bonus packages are they usually aren't worth the money

Anyhow, thank you for your time...I am really excited to get started with this...and with my Extreme KB conditioning DVD comming tommorow, I think this will be a great way to get movin' in the right direction
