Everyday Systems

Ahh have been slacking off on monitoring. But sticking to principles so yay! I have decided on a modification: I will allow "snacking" or "tasting" of fruit and veggies while harvesting them. I've spent some time lately picking my grandmas figs, and harvesting stuff out of her garden and you can't j...

This past week went well. My Birthday was monday, but due to work and other activities that day my family planned on doing a birthday dinner and strawberry shortcake on Friday, so I was going to take an S day Friday instead of Monday. However, by the time Friday rolled around, I had caught a stomach...

Thanks Elyssa! Yes, I think plating lunch and actually taking a set time would both be beneficial. It gets hard with my job to do that but I'd likely be better situated if I did. Finished out last week and this week so far with Green Day's! Monday was my birthday but I'm having a birthday dinner thi...

Monday was a failure :-/. I think I figured out one reason. I didn't pick a lunch, and didn't take time to stop and get lunch, so I figured I'd just eat popcorn and count it as a lunch, but didn't take a set time. And it went downhill from there. I got home and was starving. Waited to eat till dinne...

Congratulations and wishing you the best on your treatment

Finished out the week with successes! Amazing how well medicine works :-). I felt a bit of pressure to eat a cookie last night (Friday), but avoided it and now it is a Saturday! And I found out the cookie I wanted Friday was a ginger snap, which I don't actually like, but had I not had the no s fram...

Thanks for the welcome, Merry!

Yesterday was a "sick" s day :-(. Was diagnosed with tonsillitis and have a horrible sore throat. I actually ate very little, cause it hurts to swallow, but cough drops all day and after going to the doctor and getting meds in the afternoon, I ate a "snack" of yogurt so I could immediately take some...

So this past Thursday was a failure day but the other days were successes. I was happy about Friday, I went to visit some friends in the evening and was worried about sticking to it in a social setting. It wasn't that bad. No desert was served at all, and it was pretty easy to not get any seconds. I...

I had a snack between lunch and dinner -- one of those cracker packs and a handful of peanuts. My mistake was not packing a big enough lunch, or breakfast, knowing I would have to stay a bit late at work and be late getting dinner. the plus is I didn't continue to fail. Was tempted to eat a cookie a...

So far so good. 2 of my 5 days were S days (weekend).

Happy Memorial Day!

this will be my 4th day of no S, only second N day because I started on a Friday. I can see some potential obstacles ahead but feel prepared. Go team go 😊
