Can't believe I've made it 4 days in a row this week. I'm traveling today (Friday) so I'm going to be extra careful to not cave because I want this last day to make it 5 N days in a row. It's been forever since I've done that! Hopefully I'll remember throughout the day how important this is to do th...

Monday was a little hard but with success as well. I've now got my boyfriend on board with No S and he is being extremely supportive. This is a new relationship for me and normally I'm not too keen on telling guys what I'm up to on the dieting front. But I was able to explain to him that I needed up...

Thanks for the encouragement peeps! My January has been far less than perfect so far but I'm still committed to No S. I have constant urges to turn to calorie counting and WW but they never last for more than a few hours. I know deep down that those things simply will not work for me. It's ridiculou...

So it started with a taste at the farmers market. I really didn't even think about it…then I continued on to my mom's bakery and since I knew the day was red (because I want to be really strict about this) continue to snack on some freshly cooked bacon. Sigh. I tried to stop it at just the taste a...

Good for you - getting on the boards rather than into the kitchen. That's what I wished I had done so many times. Feel so much better about yourself and about life in general in the morning. I'm with you on banning the scale. I haven't stepped on it yet because I want to quit as well. The thing is t...

Thanks inswsn for the encouragement! This weekend I was swayed away by another attempt at calorie counting…yeah that lasted exactly one and a half days. Oh how I know that will never work for me. But I came back… The weekend was fairly tame for me, but that's probably because I had 3 red days th...

I've now had more red days then I can have green ones this week. Horrible! I got stressed yesterday, which is absolutely no excuse. In fact, in the No S book, he points out that when you're stressed that's when its even more important to keep to your habits. So lunch was less than ideal with me virt...

So today was a success and a fail. I did have a scone/danish thing with my lunch that someone offered me at work. It was a sweet, there's no denying it. I talked myself into it. But the day was a success in that I didn't continue to snack for the rest of the afternoon, and just stuck to my dinner in...

Thank you!! It's so hard to not let those thoughts invade the psyche and the day isn't it? But I really really want this to work this year so I'm determined to keep plugging along no matter what happens. I can see that you're working hard as well, I hope we can support each other. Let me know if the...

Thanks for that reply. See, that's something that I was looking for - someone else who been having a hard time with bad habits as well. So glad that you've found something that helps! A replacement good habit I suppose with your fasting. Don't think that is quite right for me but good to know that o...

Breaking a bad S day binge habit
I'm curious to know what some of you do for your S events on S days. I've seen some posts mentioning a certain number of events planned instead of a general free-for-all. The reason I ask is because I have a nasty binge habit and even though I am doing Vanilla No S the reason I couldn't ever (or did...

Yesterday - Monday, Jan 7 - ended up to be difficult. Mondays have been in the past, since I want to keep the S days going so badly. Bingeing and just all-around putting food in my mouth all the time is such a horrible habit I've developed over the years. So anyway, yesterday morning I decided that ...

Since I am so easily swayed by each shiny new diet promising easy weight loss I decided I too needed a daily check in because I know deep down that No S is the way I want to live the rest of my life! I know that none of those diets will work - we all go wayyyy back - I need to develop these habits a...

I know exactly how you feel. Almost the same exact thing happened to me today. At a workout class this morning I decided the only thing that would help me lose weight would be to start counting calories (I was struggling in the class, hence the disgust with myself and consequent desire to lose weigh...

Thanks everyone for replying. I am getting better at embracing hunger and can deal with it a little more easily now. There have been a few mess ups on N days though and it's been because of my habit of snacking or rather of comforting myself emotionally with food. So I was thinking maybe it'd be bes...

Beverages between meals
Hey all, I'm new to No S (about 3 weeks now), I absolutely love it but am still very much getting used to developing these habits. It's coming slowly but surely as I definitely notice changes in my behaviors and recognize how many times a day I try to reach for food. Just wondering what some of your...
