Thanks Blue, I am feeling like I am slipping down one more slope of diet failure. I want instant results and feel I can't even stick to this great plan. I am eating without even thinking sometimes. It isn't a lot of food but not on habit. Then I tell myself I will do Michael Thurman again for awhile...

Jamiebf

I am here again, day 32, I did so good until day 23. Now I feel as if I have failed one more thing I was trying to do. I keep reading all the posts and hope it will make a difference but each day I fail on habit. I really am not sure if I can get myself back on track. I loved the feeling of freedom ...

Jamiebf

Well another failure, I am not sure what my problem is. Tomorrow is an s day and I don't know what will happen Monday.

Jamiebf

Still am not going to weigh in. I do not need the ups and downs for the scale. I need to work on staying on habit

Jamiebf

:? Yep, day 31 and another failure. Not bad, ate all my meals, made good food choices then I ate some chocolate. What is up with me. I will keep trying to get on track. What is strange is I am not angry, sad, frustrated but almost indifferent. That can't be good. I am in need of some rest, very, ver...

Jamiebf

Well it is day 30. I did great until I decided I just had to have a few tastes of ice cream I made today. It wasn't much but still a failure. So I put a red on my habitcal. However i will say I had a success because I didn't say oh well and start stuffing my face. Exercise is right on habit. So tomo...

Jamiebf

Welcome LindayGay, This is a great life plan. Read all the support on this site and remember this for the most part is a process. It is not fast but is one you can to for a lifetime. New habits is what we are changing. No more diet obsessing
Good luck to you

Jamiebf

Great job Buffalo Gal,
Mondays can be a struggle.

Jamiebf

Monday day 28
Success
All green on all three charts. I did great and made all healthy food choices today. One day at a time.
Goodnight moon

Jamiebf

Sorry that was Elmira NY not NH

Jamiebf

Thanks Bright Angel, It is great getting to know everyone. I am 48 years old and live in Elmria, NH. I was married to my first husband for 25 years and we had 3 sons together. We diorviced years ago and needless to say he is a much better X husband than he was a husband. He is a wonderful father to ...

Jamiebf

Great girls, I'm in. I asked my hubby to hide my scales when I first started. I have wasted way too many tears over the years because of my scales. I have no intention of weighting myself. Blue, you are right, we know when we gain weight. We can feel it. BrightAngel, if that works for you then that ...

Jamiebf

Amen to that Rehba!!

Jamiebf

Thanks for the advice Tiffiny. I think that is a great idea. We all need to learn to eat more healthy.

Jamiebf

Hi Susy, I am so happy to see you out here chatting. There are so many reasons one can gain, we all know that. I just have to say to myself, what else can I stick to, nothing. This really isn't like a diet. We can learn these new habits. We just have to fix our brains. The years of dieting have made...

Jamiebf

Congratulations Buffalo Gal, 21 days on habit, you're doing great!!

Jamie

Jamiebf

Thanks Buffalo Gal, It's good to hear from you. You are right it is so much eaisier to get back on track with the no S plan and I too believe that we expect to fail because that is the old diet way of thinking. I have done great today and feel like this will be the first week since I started April 1...

Jamiebf

Hey, I haven't seen nossuzy on :( I hope she will be back. The scales can do such damage when we put all our faith in just loosing pounds. It is about habit more than anything. Undoing all those years of the diet damage, not just to our bodies but our emotions. I really do believe if we can change o...

Jamiebf

Congratulations Jd4, You have the right attitude. Last week I blew it Wed night, then Thursday night oh then Friday night. This after 23 days for straight success. I did overeat on my S days but tomorrow I will be back on track. I refuse to give in to the old habits of failure, anger and quitting. N...

Jamiebf

Thanks Dawn, that is really helpful. I really don't think I have lost any weight. I will not weigh myself because the scale thing is another obsession for me. I know my pants have felt tighter. Tomorrow it day 28 for me and I am looking forward to the structure of the no S days. I am going to work o...

Jamiebf

Well said Blueskighs, I agree with all that!

Jamiebf

Hey Blueskighs,
Yummy, that cake on your blog looked soooo good. Loved the blog today. It is always so fun to read.

Take Care
Jamie

Jamiebf

Hang in there, it sounds like you are doing great. You have a lot going on and you are still making time to take care of yourself. Remember as my husband always tells me, if you don't take care of yourself you are not good to any one else. Lots of prayers for you.

Jamie

Jamiebf

Welcome Kim, I have been on this life's plan for 27 days. I have had four bad days but still feel great about this diet. I really do believe it can work. The first 3 weeks were so easy for me. I don't know if I lost weight but to be free of the dieting obsessing was so great. It is a journey to chan...

Jamiebf

Day 27, an S day. Thats it just another S day, ate too much at times but not the whole weekend. I did good with my workouts so success there. Tomorrow I begin another week of no S days and I am looking forward to a great week.
Good night moon

Jamiebf

Thank you so much everyone for your support. I have never recieved so much support on any of the many plans I have done in my life. All your posts are so helpful. Since this has been the weekend I haven't yet had to get back to the no S days just yet. I will take the advice and take this one day at ...

Jamiebf

Well I did great to day 21 then what happened to me. I believe my ugly old diet monster took over. I failed on habit Wed. night then again Thursday night both times I had to work late at the restaurant and I was all alone eating my homemade ice cream that I resisted on Monday when I made it. So Thur...

Jamiebf

Day 25 was very bad. The worst of it is not that I ate whatever, whenever I wanted but that I began to tell myself that this does not work for me as I stuffed my face all day. I came home from work angry at myself and depressed. Feeling that old feeling of failure. So after making it to 21 day on po...

Jamiebf

Fantastic Histroy Teacher
I feel like you if it takes 3 years to loose the 30 than that is okay with me. I too have had a few slip ups but you are right, we just move on to the next day. Congratulations on 21!!

Jamiebf

I made it to 21 with no problem and just had two failure days but I am ok. I don't feel angry like diets past because I agree this is a life time plan and I am not perfect. Thanks everyone for all the great advice it helps all of us.

Jamiebf

So today was better than yesterday but I still failed. I ate some ice cream again, just a bit but still a fail. So I am not giving up I need to get back on track. I am still working out and eating my 3 meals. It is this late night working that is killing me. All alone in this big restaurant with all...

Jamiebf

I agree with you all, I have been getting WW for years delivered to my door and yes it is for the diets. I did not renew my subscription last week because I am done I have found what works. Day 25 for me, I have had one bad day but did not quit like I ussally do. Thanks to Rienhard no more obsessing!!

Jamiebf

I too use to have a problem with the scale. I asked my husband to hid them, he did and I feel one more thing is gone that I use to obsess about. Better food choices are best for all of us. We just have to get to a place where we really want those good things to eat. I know I am working on it but we ...

Jamiebf

Hey thanks everyone, you have all been so helpful. I have been good about staying on habit that is until tonight. As Tiffany said, I will not let one red moment get me off track. I am still convinced this is the only way to eat so I will keep going.

Thanks so much

Jamiebf

Hey Blueskighs, congratulations on the 30 days on habit and the lost pounds. Fantastic job!! You are doing great. I had a failure today. Did good all day and tonght, 1:30am at work while working on my new menus I caved into a banana cream pie ice cream cone, one of my new flavors and to make it wors...

Jamiebf

Big Failure!! I am not sure why but I did great all day then at 1:30am while working late to finish new menus I just had to eat my new creation, Banana cream pie ice cream in a freshly made waffle cone, what the heck. So day 24 is a failure and I will recover. I did workout today but am not happy wi...

Jamiebf

Day 22 was good.

I made better food choices for my meals and I am happy with them. I will look forward to another successful day tomorrow.
Goodnight moon.

Jamiebf

Thanks Tiffani Your advice is very helpful. I know it will help my other noser friends that are struggling with some weight gain at this time. I just read Carla's forum and that too was very helpful. The kind support on this site is a blessing :D I am so happy I found Rienhards book and all the wond...

Jamiebf

Hey this question goes out to all the long time nosers that may be able to help the ones that are new. I am on day 22. I love this diet. The no obsessing, guilt, anger and failure. I like some have experenced weight gain. I personally do not know numbers because I refuse to weigh myself, scale obses...

Jamiebf

Hi there Hilary and Tiffani I read your forum often and had a question. You have both been doing this for a long time. I am on day 22 and have about 30 pounds to loose. I and some others have experenced tighter pants in the first 21 days. I know for me I have loaded my plates with whatever I wanted ...

Jamiebf

Thanks Jan, I am not to my healthy weight but intend to get there free of obssesing as I have done for years. I need to loose about 30 and like some on the site I may have gained. I refuse to step on a scale because that too is one of my crazy obbsessoing that can send me off in tears. So my hubby h...

Jamiebf

Hey Suzy, As I said in your PM, Remember this is about learning healthy habits, the numbers on the scale are secondary it will happen. The freedom on no diet obsessing is what is the most important. The rest will follow with some healthy food choices and exercise we will get where we need to be. It ...

Jamiebf

I have just completed 21 days on the nosdiet. It is the best diet I have ever done and on to my next 21 days free from obsesses.

Jamiebf

I did it, 21 successful days on habit. Although I do not feel thinner, I know I have been enjoying food and not beating myself up all the time for failing. I still have my moments of old feeling but with the support on this site I get through. So on to the next 21 days. Today I made much healthier f...

Jamiebf

This completes day 20. I felt my S weekend went well until late last night. I ate more that I should have but the worst part is I began obsessing again. So I will be happy to start day 21 tomorrow. To a fresh new week back in control. For now Goodnight moon.

Jamiebf

Today is day 19. for this day of sday I had a healthy breakfast, no lunch because I got busy spring cleaning outside, Beautiful day in NY and a yummy dinner of pork loin, potato, asparigus. I did have a few chips today and a cookie but I did feel in control. I am so happy with this diet that I feel ...

Jamiebf

Hi Jan,
I am impressed that you have been doing this for so long. I do believe it is something I can stick to. May I ask in the amount of time you have done this how much weight have you lost? I am on day 19 and love this way of eating.

Jamiebf

Welcome. I am on day 19 and love this plan. No more obsessing and failure. You will do great!!

Jamiebf

Hi Suzy, Remember, we are tring to undo years of bad habits. That is what this plan is all about. NO BEATING yourself up. Sdays are there for a reason. I too feel I could make better choices on my ndays and I may try that. However all my breakfasts on ndays have been healthy, my lunches sometimes ar...

Jamiebf

Thanks Debbie,
You will get to 21. I can't believe it is day 18 for me. I will enjoy my caujun fish tonight. It is a long time between lunch and dinner on Fridays because we are so busy at the restaurant that I never eat before 8 or 9. However I will do just fine. Enjoy your sday weedend

Jamiebf

Thanks Blueskighs,
I believe I will make 21 and then 21 again and again. Today is day 17 and I am doing great. Still loving this diet. Felt fat today, not sure why but I have to tell myself no obsessing is worth the wait to be the size I need to be.

Jamiebf

No popcorn is a snack, but sure would be great for dinner right!! Welcome, I am on day 17 and I can tell you this is the best diet I have ever been on. Remember, The weight loss is secondary to the freedom of no more diet obsessing. Good luck.

Jamiebf

Great job, your doing great. It is so good to not to have the love hate with food any longer, now I just love my meals and love the control even more.

Jamiebf

Hi Blueskigh
Loved your blog yesterday. I agree with the ns days being easier in a way because we do not have to worry. Three meals thats it. We need to control ourselves on the sdays.
Love the Blog! thanks

Jamiebf

This is day 16 and I am still right on track. Still love this diet. I am having no trouble following the rules. Soon I will be in the 21 club!!

Jamiebf

Hi all, I am more over weight than that. I would like to be 140 so I have about 30 35 to loose. I am on day 16 and loving the freedom from obsessing.

Hey Suzy don't worry about the three drinks, next time you'll do better.

Jamiebf

I am on day 16 and this is the only diet I will ever do again in my life. I have never felt such freedom from obsessing. Thanks to Reinhard sharing his experences with us on this website we can all experence really enjoying food again without obsessing. Buy the book, it is so worth it and it is also...

Jamiebf

Good luck to you all. I am on day 14 and I can tell it is great. Remember the weight loss is secondary to the freedom you will feel. No more obsessing, no more emotional eating, no more hating yourself for failing. It feels great and even I can stick with it.

Jamiebf

No more obsessing about food!! Whats not to love except yourself and food again. After 14 days I feel like a new person. The weight becomes secondary to the emotional freedom.

Jamiebf

Welcome Mel. I too did medifast 3years ago. Add that to all the other crazy diets in my life. I lost weight and gained it back in less than a year. I just tossed the rest of the old food away last month. I will start day 15 tomorrow and I have never felt better. No more food obsessing. I have 30 pou...

Jamiebf

Day 13 is done, and today 14 was another good day. I am still doing well and the eating is right on track. I am hoping to get all my exercise in this week. My sister had a hip replacement and that is my priority this week. I will stick to nosing and try to work out when I can.

Jamiebf

He there fatfarmlady, but not forever. I am on day 12 and have the same 20 books you probably have. This plan works!! I have never been on a plan that makes you free of food obsessing. Remember take it day to day and get rid of the scales. It doesn't matter how long it takes what really matters is y...

Jamiebf

My advice to you organic girl is get rid of the scale for the long term. What will it really do for you? As you mentioned on one of the other forums about the "diet hell wheel". I think it was you, describes it perfectly. The scales do the same thing to us. My husband hid mine and to be honest I don...

Jamiebf

I just completed day 11 and I am still amazed that I am not having a problem. sometimes I think I need to cut down to speed up weight loss but I have to tell myself I am diet obsessing again. I am eating reasonble meals and my plates are not over filled. I am very happy with my progress of forming n...

Jamiebf

Thank you for sharing all you memories from the past. I really enjoyed reading them all. It is so true. We have all fallen into the whole food obsession. Thank God I feel there is a way out.

Jamiebf

Hey stacy, Becareful with the sdays. From everything I have read the weekends are important as well as not concentrating on the scale. I know for me, I have about 30# to loose I will not be using a scale at all. I get too caught up in the ups and downs of what the scales say. The liberating thing ab...

Jamiebf

Congratulations haganeedle!
You can do this. I am on day 11 and love this life plan, I will never diet again!! No more obsesses.

Have a great day

Jamiebf

Hey welcome dory and Rondi, I am on day 11 today and don't feel bad Rondi I too cheated on my first day. Did great all day but at night stuffed my face in front of the tv. Congratulations on the weight loss. Remember the freeing thing about nosing is no more diet obsessing. For your health I think y...

Jamiebf

I too did the six meal thing. I handled it for about 4 months but could not keep it up. I really enjoy my meals now so much more. Hey everyone you should check out blueskigh's blog. I found it so encouraging with humor, love reading it everyday. I could really relate. Thanks again Blueskigh!! :)

Jamiebf

I just realized this has been day 10 for me. I started on the 1st. I did great all day on my first day but then cheated late at night. However that was still my first day. So I have completed 10 days with the first being a failure sort of. So tomorrow is day 11 and I am feeling great about this whol...

Jamiebf

I have found after 9 days that I am not hungry between meals anymore. I do enjoy my meals and the evenings are getting easier. I am a night eater. Love to eat before bed but then I always felt sick and full. It is nice to wake up hungry and know I can eat what I enjoy in the morning.

Jamiebf

I just sent a copy to my struggling cousin, she is always angry at herself because of her extra 30 pounds and not being able to stay on a diet. I sent it overnight and emailed her the website. After nine days I am so happy to have found this plan and I loved reading the book. Thanks again Reinhard.

Jamiebf

Today is day nine, I am still sick with this cold. Thought I was getting better but I still don't feel great. I will stick to my plan today and if I feel better as the day wears on I will try to exercise tonight after work. If not I will call this a yellow day for exercise since I have been ahead of...

Jamiebf

I so agree with you, I have only been 8 days and can not believe the freedom I feel on this program. I do not feel as if I am dieting. I do not obsess about food any longer. My husband hid my scales for me so I won't obsess about that. I run our family restaurant and make all the homemade ice cream ...

Jamiebf

Thanks everyone is great on this site.

Jamiebf

I agree with all the above. I have had the 8 days of not obsessing about food, that is a great feeling. I does work.

Jamiebf

I agree, I drink hot tea and go to bed. However I have to pee way too much

Jamiebf

ok, call me stupid but I still don't get it. So I am on the east coast, what time is it for me??

Thanks

Jamiebf

Welcome. The great thing about this site is the endless support. Good luck this is a life plan for healthy eating habits. I am only 8 days in but love it.

Jamiebf

It is so great to see so many people excited about this new way of thinking. I just completed day 8 with no problems. I like all of you have obsessed about food and the scale for years. Been on every diet out there. I told my husband tonight. I will never diet again. This to me is not a diet it is a...

Jamiebf

I just completed day 8 and I am happy to say all is well. I had my first s day last weekend and found that I really didn't eat too much. I don't have snacks in the house that I love so I did well. I think you'll do great. Enjoy the weekend that is what is so great about this program. Good luck

Jamiebf

Well I have completed day 8 and I am ready for bed. I did great today and feel so free. I had total control and was not thinking about food all day just at meal times. I didn't overfill my plate and ate enough to be satisfied. I am on track with my exercise and feel good about that. I am looking for...

Jamiebf

Thanks guys, I appriciate all the responce. I agree this site is a support buddy in its self. Thanks!!

Jamiebf

Here I am starting day 8! I am excited that I have had no bad days. I will check in after work.

Jamiebf

Hey out there, I have had 97 people read this and no one wants to be my support buddy? I guess everyone on the site is a support buddy, so that is a blessing. I thought it would be great to check in with some one each day. Today is day 8 for me and I am looking forward to another great day. Have a g...

Jamiebf

I have only been doing this for a week but I love the simple concept. For me it is about ending the yoyo dieting I have been doing for years. I admire all of you who have done this for a long time and share your ups and downs with all of us new people. Thanks again

Jamiebf

Your story was very helpful, thanks for sharing.

Jamiebf

You'll love the book. It was fun to read and so very helpful. I am new as well just completed my first week and I have never felt so free from the way food controled me.

I can enjoy my meals now and not feel guilty anymore. Good luck to you

Jamiebf

Hi there, I have just completed my first week so I am no expert however I am an expert at yoyo dieting. Food controling my emotions and moods. I have been able to stick to this without a problem. I would suggest you get the book it is an easy read and you will enjoy reading it. From all I have read ...

Jamiebf

Well this is day 7. I have done well so far. The first few days my meals were not as healthy as they should have been but I have followed the rules. I didn't go too crazy over the weekend and I asked my husband to hide the scales. I obsess way too much. I just would like to stop the diet obsessing a...

Jamiebf

Could someone explain what GMT time means. I am so confused with the times posted. Day 7 is going well except I am home sick with a nasty cold. Eating is going well but exercise is off for today unless I feel better this afternoon. Thanks all!

Jamiebf

Love this site, It will be on day 7 tomorrow. I am 48 and need to loose 30 pounds. I asked my husband to hide the scales from me because I become obsessed with them. I have been on every diet out there and want to make this a way of life. I have done great so far. I work out at least 4 days a week w...

Jamiebf

I am sorry to hear of your loss. I am new here but feel so much love and support. Take it easy on yourself and lots of prayers go out to you and your family.

Jamiebf

I too am a WW reader and found this plan and love it. I am starting week two. Did great first week but struggle with the evil scale. I need to loose 30 and I am tring to believe I am not in a hurry but old habits die hard. This site is a great help. Good luck to you, you can do it!!

Jamiebf

Thanks Reinhard, I agree after reading your book the success is well deserved. You have helped so many and after only a week I am happy to have found this life plan. God bless you and your family.

Jamiebf

I started on April 1st. Saw the womens world and went to Barns and Noble to get the book. I loved the concept. I no longer want to obsess about food. Thanks

Jamiebf

I too am putting away my scale. NO more will I be a slave to the scale. Why do we let this stupid little thing control our mood and emotions. I feel like the nos plan is going to free me from all the crazy diets I have been on in my life over and over again. Thanks everyone!!

Jamiebf

I do think the book really helped me. I found it very helpful. I would encourage everyone to take the time and read the entire book. Thanks guys!!

Jamiebf

Hi Everyone, I am one week in and find all the posts really encouraging. I am not very good at getting around the site but I am learning. The first week was not as hard as I thought it would be. I run a very busy restaurant for my parents in upstate NY and I am a picker. I love a fry here and there ...

Jamiebf

I agree with you all . I hope this is the last diet I do in my lifetime. I am sick the food consuming my every thought and mood. I feel a freedom in only one week. I too found that the weekend was great. I enjoyed a great dinner celabration with my son and his wife, he got his masters!! I found I di...
