Right, new intelligent dietary default: YOGURT! You can eat a fairly big pot of it for relatively few calories, lots of protein and will help on the calcium front. Plus I'm being motivated by how bad my finances are due to how much food I've been buying and yogurt is cheap! I can have breakfast and ...

Jesus I can't keep up with the days! So I've been red all this week I believe, although I haven't really been recording it actively. While I could use travel, stress and no work-life balance as excuses, it's really just because I haven't been putting in the effort. I got derailed over the weekend wh...

Hang in there, keep going and keep trying. Each day is a new day! I'm still going, although on a red streak it seems. However, I'm away at the weekend and being around my boyfriend does tend to moderate what I eat. I need to pretend that everyone can see what I'm eating and how much! I've also been...

Another busy week and weekend! I really should make more time to reflect each day. Wednesday and Friday were red N days. Stress and feeling overwhelmed with work got to me on Wednesday and Friday was a hangover driven binge fest. Thursday was a black tie dinner event, which I was going to keep as a ...

Ooh busy few days! So Sunday 10th was a good S day, boyfriend and I made a pie and a chocolate torte, had fun baking and making most of the day. Unfortunately Monday was then a red day. Leftover chocolate torte and a weird lack of motivation for my day job is a bad combination. I did however, get a ...

Hmmm Going to call today a red day. While I stuck to three eating occasions, I had a lot of chocolate as my lunch, I think again because I was tired and a little stressed out re thesis writing work. I've also noticed that a lot of the time in the evening I'm not interested in cooking anything, I'm n...

Just popping in to say hi, and welcome. Don’t let one red day derail you. Mark it and move on. In fact for me, that is the essence of no s. After so many diet when ‘I’ve blown it so what’s the point’ was the name of the game, no s is quite a relief. It’s impossible to blow it. You just ...

Re: 4 days: travel, a wedding, my birthday, a holiday. Eek.
It was a tough few days, healthy eating wise. We went away to travel to a family wedding. Did some sightseeing. Ate out every meal. Then a rehearsal dinner. Then a wedding with an amazing amount of food. Then Memorial Day and my birthday (a big one, year ending in zero.) Eek. I tried not to “be a...

Confessions of an Eatosaurus
1st of June, first green N day. Starting weight 71.7kg, height 5'4" I'm planning on using this not only as a daily check in, but also a blog type arrangement to note my thoughts. I've decided to start on a mostly vanilla No S plan but with a few intelligent dietary defaults already set in. In the in...

Welcome back! Begin cultivating the idea that holidays are not about going overboard on food or drink. Why would they need to be if you are eating delicious food in reasonable amounts regularly anyway? Holidays are about not having to be at work, and being able to enjoy the sights and sounds of a d...

And we start again...oy vey
With a holiday in 5 weeks I convinced myself I needed to calorie count and get on top of my binge eating tendencies in order to shift some excess weight (I'm currently 72kg at 5'4" making my BMI about 27 or 28 ish by last check). Can you guess what I've managed to get through calorie wise since I st...

Honestly, starvation mode is something that occurs when you literally starve. An average human can go about three weeks without food before the cannibalism of your own tissues kills you. Some hours without food isn't going to put you into starvation mode or ruin your metabolism or any other fatlogic...

I have to say, while I haven't been successful at avoiding the chocolate and biscuits every day so far, I have noticed when I'm jonesing for a sweet snack but I can't actually pinpoint what I want to eat. This is making me think that I'm only wanting it for the habit rather than for the content. I d...

Hard to hear the talk also when their weight is dropping so fast and mine is climbing! I wonder if the diet talk makes me anxious and actually eat more! Is it possible that you're eating much quicker just to get through the meal and avoid the diet talk? When I eat fast I barely register the food an...

Welcome lady brachiosaur! Love the name. I think you answered the question for me. I am terrified of giving sweets, especially soda. Plus the mentality of " well I'm on a diet so I have to eat only kale and quinoa. " But like Merrie said, I don't want to head down a path of bad health simply becaus...

I'm interested to know what stopped you from just getting on with it and how you overcame this. For me, I think it's a combination of wanting results now, not really wanting to give up the chocolate binges and when I do give it a shot, I put too much pressure on myself to eat wholesome, healthy mea...

What stopped you from starting?
Hi all! I was reading the thread about why people had left and returned and it got me thinking about my own (many, many) failed starts. I'm interested to know what stopped you from just getting on with it and how you overcame this. For me, I think it's a combination of wanting results now, not reall...
