Everyday Systems

My yearly check-in is in the form of a re-dedication to No.S. I did quite well on No-S for a long time. Then I moved across country and my habits were in total upheaval. Plus, I've been unemployed or underemployed for a long time, so it's a little difficult to be consistent with something like this when your life seems to be in a seemingly endless unknown. LOL. While I realize that that is rationalization to a large extent, I see it as an explanation rather than an excuse.

My ex-mother-in-law has been living with me temporarily. (Long story.) Once she leaves on Nov. 1st, I will have a much easier time adhering to No-S. Until then, my goal is to have more successful No-S events than failures and go for No-S events rather than successful No-S days. My biggest food issue tends to be portion size and going for seconds. So I will try to have more meals without seconds than ones with seconds. After Nov. 1st, I will go for Vanilla No-S.

The good news, though, is that I didn't re-gain very much weight during my No-S hiatus.

Well done jules!

Thanks very much for popping in with your update/story.

All the very best for your continuing No S journey !

Good job! Changes can certainly cause problems at times.

Hi Jules,

Thanks for checking in and best of luck on your "re-dedication!"

If it's any comfort, seconds are the hardest S for me as well.

Well I hope such things work for me too. I am trying it since a few days and waiting for good results.

"The good news, though, is that I didn't re-gain very much weight during my No-S hiatus."

This is good news! Maintenance is more important than losing the same weight over and over again!

Belated congrats and best wishes making this be your "known," no matter what goes on around you. And with getting the employment you want.
