r.jean - That is a very good idea. I won't wait until I am able to do a full, normal exercise routine. I'll just alter it for those times when I'm not as able. Thanks!

So nice when the first day of a diet is an S Day. :) It was actually a calm day for eating with me - not much appetite - GET THIS - I wake up this morning - first day of the "new me" - and can't walk without crutches!

I regularly see people refer to "starting over." For me that term is part of a diet mentality that I do not want to go back to.

I tend to remind myself of that as well......even if I have red days, I'm building on good habits and that is a success in itself. A year ago this month I started No S. My first try I went 21 green days straight.....lost 11 lbs....felt great . However, I was eating "diet" plates and as we all know t...

Good job on the S Day! I know what you mean about pie.....with me it's chocolate pie....gets embarrassing when no one else is eating the pie and it is still vanishing at an alarming rate. :oops: You're on your way - keep it up! :) Hope you're kids feel better soon. I remember when my little boy (I h...

FRIDAY - SUCCESS! Breakfast : Raisin Bran Lunch : Egg and cheese bagel (thin-sliced), veggies/dip (my goal is to someday be able to eat veggies without needing the dip), grapes, cheetos, and honey-roasted peanuts (an unusual mix, I know, but hey, that's what I was craving...) Dinner : Rotisseri lem...

Well, just as I figured, weigh-in didn't go too well this morning. I ended up gaining 2 lbs. back. I was kinda bummed at first, but then reminded myself if that's what needed to happen for me to finally get through two consecutive green weeks, I'll take it. I have a feeling I was having too much pea...

It sounds like you are off to a wonderful new start! I love how you have decided to get and do nice things for yourself and enjoy life the way it is now, even though you have goals to change it. I have desperately needed to shop for new clothes for the past year or so, but I keep waiting until that ...

You are inspiring. I have read Geneen Roth before, but I had never made the connection to this approach. It totally makes sense. I will be hungry at mealtimes and can now eat what sounds right, not what has this carb or that many calories. I'm going to dig that book out and reread it. It has been s...

Loved reading your posts about resisting treats. I hope to someday be able to do the same with ease. (Amazing how a little piece of chocolate can hold so much power over someone! :?) . Also, you're doing great with your exercise....gives me the itch to start doing that myself. You're a great inspira...

Re: 11/08/11
My danger hours are 4-6 pm. I kept busy and away. What do you all do during your danger hours? Those hours are tough for me, too. My kids always have a snack after school, around 4:00, so it would always make me crave a snack and I'd usually give into that craving. I've had ALOT of luck by switchin...

S Days Well, I have to say this has been one of the best weekends on No S that I've ever had. I didn't even have chocolate until noon on Saturday (usually it's the first thing I eat that day.) And I didn't have big portions of anything or snack much either. Sunday, I had more sweets and over-ate a ...
