Khristal's Daily Check-In starting over!!
I almost made it to the 21 day club last month and had a red day on day 18 :( So, starting over today! Today is Day 1 ... so far so good. Oatmeal and a banana for breakfast. It's 11:16 AM and I'm still not hungry for lunch yet. Lunch: Small salad and a leftover hot dog from my son's b-day party. Din...

I'm taking S days off for exercise, but I'm going to be sure to do it on my N days. I honestly be...

My first month of No S
I started about the beginning of May with No S. I lost 3 lbs right off the bat, gained them back, then lost them again for a total loss of 3 lbs for the entire month, which I am quite pleased with because I barely exercised at ALL! So, here in June, I am going to exercise every single day, even if i...

Article on fidgeting, very interesting
The article claims that thin people who seem to be able to eat whatever they want and not gain weight actually fidget and move around more throughout the day than overweight people who eat the same amount and gain weight, according to a study. I googled it and there have been a few studies done on t...

I don't want to get too excited too quickly, but I am losing weight! I started a week ago, and I'm down 3 lbs. And I have hardly felt the least bit deprived or had any stress or anxiety over food whatsoever. The first day was the hardest, and I'm sure there will be more hard days, but so far I am im...

It's a funny thing, I think most people on No-s wind up thinking less about food in a negative, anxious way, but MORE about it in a positive, "mindful" way: there's no thoughtless, automatic wolfing down when you sit down to a real meal with real appetite. Reinhard It's true. Before I started eatin...

I think this diet is training me to not think about food
It's already 4 PM, I ate lunch 4 hours ago, and I just realized it's getting close to time for dinner and not once have I thought about food since I ate lunch! Wow! I don't think I've went longer than 30 minutes without thinking about food in I don't know how long!

So far, I'm only on Day 3 but have found it to be pretty easy. I have had some hunger pangs, and urges to raid the cupboard for a snack, but nothing not easily controlled. I know I'm pretty early into this though and I expect it's not this easy throughout. At what point does it get hard and start ta...

Well I live in Georgia, so as I'm sure you know sweet tea is VERY popular here. I have to keep a gallon of it in the fridge all the time for my hubby. I don't drink it though, I have never liked sweet tea which is odd because I do have such a sweet tooth. However, flavored teas are right up my alley.

I am new to all this, but have been trying to stave off my cravings between meals for a while anyway, and the thing I've found that has helped the most is tea (which is a natural appetite suppressant) ! I love it hot, and you can get almost any flavor imaginable. There's vanilla, spiced, lemon, spea...
