  • Well,
    I'm down 2.5 pounds.
    I was hoping for 20, but I guess that will be next week. I'm glad I lost.
    Although I've been starting to incorporate exercise, and I was hoping it would give me a little boost.
    How's everyone else doing?
  • Maybe I'll eat those cookies in January.
    I just joined the Maintenance section of this Forum,
    and have been browsing about.

    I couldn't resist reading and posting in this Section.
    For me, maintenance is always gaining or losing a few pounds,
    and I'm always trying something new,
    Last month I bought 4 weeks of Dr. Siegel's cookes,
    but I only followed the cookie diet for about 3 days.

    Anyway now I have a cupboard full of diet cookies....
    maybe I'll use them in January.
  • Saturday...my weigh in day...and I am down 11 lbs. Holy Cow! And Thanksgiving Week 2! The cookies keep my honest. A simple cookie every 2 hours. I can do this for today. Thanks everyone for your support! Cathy
  • Hows it going? I would love to hear updates on how well you are doing on the cookie diet. I just joined jazzercise and Love it!
  • Hanging in there. I weigh in on Saturday and last Saturday I lost a total of 11 pounds. This diet is working well for me because I really only have to make food choices once a day. In the past I have gotten so overwhelmed with choices. Plus I play games...okay I can have this and a little of this blah blah blah. Which trust me, I am still doing that on the cookie diet, but this seems to be in small increments that I have been able to monitor myself. I don't know if I can explain it or not.

    This is some of what I have accomplished in the last 20 days (besides the 11 lbs)
    -actually ate salad because I wanted 2!
    -actually ate chicken when ordering out
    -did not eat m-n-m's & this WONDERFUL fudge at a meeting

    I could list some other things...but this list is phenomenal for me... I do this crazy thing of not eating healthy cuz I don't want to...like a teenager being a rebel. Long story short...I ordered CHICKEN!

    Good for you with the Jazzercise! Keep us posted on how things are going.

    With peace, Cathy
  • Well I waited to start until after Thanksgiving. So Today was my second day on the Smart for Life cookies. I find it hard to eat all 6 cookies. I set a timer on my phone to go off every 2.5 hrs to remind me to eat one. It really helps. I will weigh myself again on Monday morning. You lost 11 lbs in 2 weeks? That is awesome!
  • Hi everyone.
    I'm down 22 pounds, that I'm very happy about.
    I am thinking of changing my diet though. I can't decide. When I continue to do well with cookies, I don't mind and it's easy to know I'm going to eat cookies and I don't have to plan my meals.
    But I read the book You on a Diet, and wanted to try that, since I'm pretty sure it's healthier.
    I just can't decide what I want to. I'm afraid I'll be eating the cookies the rest of my life!
  • Today is day one for me on the Dr. S cookies. Crazy time of year to start, but I have some events coming up Jan-March. Reading all of your experiences is very helpful. Please keep them coming!
  • I started Dr. Siegal's Cookie Diet on 12/13 and I'm down 5.2 lbs already!! I love it, the hardest part though is withstanding temptation!!
