Everyday Systems

Thanks that helps. I think I will not worry too much about it. I ate so much better today than usual so that in itself was a change.

I just wanted to introduce myself again. I posted today on daily check in too. I am a 34 year old teacher with a five month old baby. Starting new today. I have lost weight on no s in the past and ready to start again. My question is, does anyone drink sweet tea. I am addicted. I think I really coul...

I am 34 years old and have a 5 month old baby. I have lost 20 pounds in past with no s guidelines but back to start again. I am a teacher so having the summer off will be a great time to start. I currently weigh 213 and would like to lose down to 170 at least. I would like to check in with my menus ...

Thanks for the suggestions! I only bought 3 weeks worth which is the starter pack so I will see how it goes. I probably won't get another bottle just incase their are long term risks. I just started 3 days ago and eat about 20 fat grams per meal. I haven't had any digestive problems yet. I also take...

I am trying very hard to stick to NoS. I am starving all the time. I just started taking Alli just to jumpstart my weight loss. I have PCOS and I have tried all sorts of things. I am trying to keep my fat grams lower than usual being on the Alli. Is anyone else taking this or has taken it?

I just recently bought a box of "Full Bars". Has anyone heard of these. I eat one in the afternoon before supper because that is my hungriest time of day. In fact lately I have been eating fast food every afternoon bc I am starving after school. These bars are supposed to fill you up and make you ea...

Has anyone heard of Full Bars I have been eating them for the past 2 days w my breakfast and lunch and i am eating far less and my hunger is gone otherwise i cant make it from lunch to dinner without cheating

I take two - 500 mg pills twice daily with breakfast and dinner that is what the bottle says but i wonder if it would work better by taking one with each of my four meals maybe i wouldnt feel so bad then metformin reduces your blood sugar and helps take fat out of storage Thanks for the advice i wil...

I think you just have to balance things out. Maybe pick one night Friday or Saturday to go out drinking but not both. Also make sure you eat when you drink so you don't drink as much. Also you could try low calorie beer such as Michelob Ultra or mixed drinks using diet drinks. Atleast drink water to...

OK I need HELP!!! My doctor put me on 2000 mg Metformin daily for PCOS. It is working as far as ovulation/regular periods go (Trying to get pregnant). It makes me feel really drained and "low". I do great until about 4 oclock after I am done teaching school and then I am ravenous!! Will I still lose...

Thanks for clearing that up. I think that muffins and granola bars are OK as along as they are part of the meal. Maybe y'all would disagree. If I had a lowfat blueberry muffin, bacon,and fruit I think that would be fine and pretty well balanced. A poptart for breakfast might be a different story! I'...

I know that PB and J are allowed sometimes. This weekend I was sick and bought the uncrustables beacuse they were easy to take out of the freezer. They are basically 200 calories which is less than a sandwich made with PB & J so I was wondering if they would be OK for lunch each day with chips and f...

Hey everyone. I would like to share my story with y'all. I teach elementary school in Georgia and I recently lost 48 pounds on a very expensive medical weight loss plan taking lots of supplements and basically starving myself half the time. Now that I'm finished with my program I still need 25 pound...

Could you give me a sample of a day's menu?

This was my menu for yesterday. I started NOS yesterday officially. Tuesday 6/16 7:30 Walked for 30 min. at the mall. 9:00 Low sugar apple juice scrambled egg/turkey bacon sandwich on lite wheat bread w/ a little Miracle Whip. Yoplait Light yogurt low sugar apple juice 12:30 BBQ Sandwich w/ chips an...

I am a southern girl from Georgia myself and I love grits,sausage,fried food,and sweet tea. What are some Southern meals that you still eat on this diet? I have an addiction to Sausage biscuits for breakfast. LOL

I lost 15 pounds in 2 months on this diet back in the fall and I know I can start again. I need to lose 50 pounds and this is the only diet that seems to work for me. I have PCOS so I have to lose weight in order to become pregnant. I really need encouragement. I hope this time I will reach my goal....

Thanks for the tips. I am going to just try this for a few weeks and see if I have luck with weight loss like I did last time. Last time I ate like this I lost weight even when I didn't count fat, carbs, or calories. Once I get the habit down I will try to eat beter choices. Thanks!

OK I have a few questions to help me get on track again. I posted earlier today. This would be a typical day for me on NoS. B - Burger King Ham/Egg/Cheese croissant or some sort of fast food biscuit and OJ/coffee L - Lean cuisine or other frozen dinner, apple slices S- Anything not sweet that fits o...

Hey y'all I am new to the board. At the beginning of September when school started (I'm a teacher), I tried the NOs diet after stumbling on this website. It sounded doable. After two weeks I lost 10 lbs and cheated on the weekends alot! The only time I drank soda was on weekends and except for a Cok...
