Just because you can eat whatever you want on No S doesn't mean you should. No So gives us the freedom to stop obsessing about nutrition, not to ignore it entirely*. If you want to have even a modicum of balanced meals, then meal planning is a necessity. Having said that, I do know that real life cr...

Another Reason as to Why You Shouldn't Give Up on No S
An article published in yesterday's NEJM purported to show why weight loss was so hard to maintain. Personally, I think the findings should have been refined to why weight loss from a crash diet is so hard to maintain. My main quibble with this study is how they had participants lose weight. Partici...

Yesterday I got pretty hungry at dinner time probably because I didn't eat much at the noon meal. I ate the cereal and banana I had designated for breakfast the next day's breakfast in addition to the dahl burrito and salad I had. Plus a protein drink. Exercise was marching/jogging in front of the T...

I find the Hutterites so fascinating! Why does your job take you there? Are you in education? Yes informal eductation. Informal education are those institutions such as museums, zoos, science centers, that work with K-12 education as well the general population. The Hutterite schools are run by the...

I had dinner (or the noon meal) at the Hutterite colony again today. They serve the oddest food sometimes. Today's oddity was a pastry wrapped stuffing that you cut up and poured broth on. It was pretty good. I am wondering about the appropriateness of asking for recipes. I had a bit o' chicken, a b...

Two hour Zumba class on Sat. Wow. Pie for dinner on Sunday. May I just say that peach pie is greatly improved by the following: 1. Fresh peaches 2. A sprinkle of cinnamon in the flour/sugar fruit coating. 3. 1/4th teaspoon vanilla extract over peaches. 4. A crumb top pie. I'm not a huge peach pie fa...

I think this is one of those issues where the result is a synergistic combination of different factors, each of which is weighted differently depending on the individuals. Different peer group, better grocery stores, neighborhoods with better resources: I don't think there's ONE silver bullet to fix...

Weight wise, I'm back to the low I hit in Aug. I think it's a sign of just how taxing these programs I do in the schools are. I've got three more next week PLUS meetings. Yig. Breakfast was yogurt, cereal AND a banana. Lunch was salad, bread and an apple with a wee sprinkle of cinnamon sugar. I don'...

No S is unique in that many people start the diet in the maintenance phase. Once they get the habits down, then they tweak till they start seeing weight loss. I was on the three year plan, apparently, in that I did No S on and off for about three years. I didn't gain weight but didn't lose either (d...

Thanks to Flylady, I've been trying to do a Before Bed Routine which includes assembling as much of dinner the night before as I can. Knowing I had another 10 hour day today, I prepped the ingredients for beef stew last night, popped it into the crockpot this morning before setting out for another l...

Re: What do you do about "real hunger"?
I re-read the post and for the record, these aren't MY high satiety foods. Are you sure they are yours or do you just think they should be based on something you read?osoniye wrote: I try to eat high satiety foods like fruit/veg/oats/dairy.

Breakfast was yogurt and Cheerios. Lunch was at the Hutterite colony. It was rice & milk soup, cottage cheese dumplings, a roasted carrot chunk, half a potato, onion slice and slice of bread. Usually Tuesdays are turkey cutlets and split pea soup or so I was told. I have to admit, I'm disappointed I...
