Congratulations !

So, just sending good wishes now as the cast-wearing wears on... KCCC, thank you very much for your kindness. I, too, now realize how important it is to have the use of both hands and arms. Even now I am amazed at the number of simple tasks that I cannot do with a cast, and I've been told that afte...

Mistake or bad decision? There is a difference, and many people seem to confuse the two. Personally, I don't think mistakes and bad decisions are that distinguishable. Normally, a bad decision involves a mistake or is a mistake. As an example, recently when I broke my arm, it occurred because of a ...

I also read tons of other books about this diet, that diet, another diet, which is best and I end up overwhelmed and confused.

I don't think there's a thing wrong with modifications. In fact, I think the secret to being able to maintain a way of eating is that it works for you for life.

Congratulations, Kittymom on feeling better.
I've long noticed that many people beginning No S enter a similar state of mind.
The concept does feel quite freeing for most people in the initial stages.

Officially out of the overweight range and now at the tip top of the healthy range. ..that is assuming you take stock in BMI numbers. I am going to consider this as another success marker. Best of all, I feel great, and the trend is downward. Congratulations TexArk !!! http://smilies.sofrayt.com/^/...

So, do you eat just three meals a day? Hi oolala, during the past three years, I've written a lot about this issue here in my personal thread. My No S struggle is well documented here.

BrightAngel

There are no magic foods. That's good- it means there are no evil magic foods, so there is no food that absolutely can't be part of your eating plan, in suitable portions. But it's also bad- it means there are no "free" foods that you can eat as much as you want, whenever you want. Well-said !!!
