Here's the interesting part, my Father-in-Law's side of the family have all lived long lives. My 84 year old FIL is the baby of the family. We stayed with my husband's Aunt R...

We're all learning new lessons. I've been around since 2008. I recently realized that I do better following the 3 rules with no tweaking or adding mods. In 2009, 2010, 2011,2012 and most of 2013, I didn't think I was suited for Vanilla S. 3 rules with no mods works for me. I wouldn't have known this...

Automatedeating...Yes, I did find my No S book. I'm re-reading it now, the holidays have been an eating free-for-all. Time to pick myself back up. Hi Over43 :D I've been re-reading the No S blogs that I started in the past couple years. I've noticed a pattern. Whenever I add a tweak or mod to the 3 ...

I'm working out of town, for some unknown reason, my keyboard is working again! WOOHOO!!!! WIDRT -Actually this was yesterday.

Hi Over43, Yep, I changed my whole way of eating. In a nutshell, I was a vegetarian, high carb eater who regularly completed marathons. Despite completing over 50 marathons and a couple ultras, I was still about 20 lbs overweight. I couldn't do more than 2 Vanilla N days because of my carb (mostly d...

WIDRT -Dipped my toe into Intermittent Fasting again. Yesterday I ate dinner around 5pm, I ate again around 23 hours later. I'm a big fan of IF, lately I've been doing a 16 hour fast/8 hour eating window. It's been quite awhile since I've gone beyond 16 hours. I'm happy to say I was able to do it wi...
