Don't blame me, it was all Deb's idea...
So Deb suggested I post here after posting in my thread all by my lonesome... Long story short, after 7 months of no-S-ing I am still keeping the weight off. I'd managed to lose about 25 pounds in the first 5 months and since then I've dropped down another 5 (and then bouncing back up & down again) ...

Still here...
Wow, it's been awhile since I've posted. Well it's about 7 months since I started no-S-ing and I am still going strong. No major weight losses since my 25-pounds-down post earlier, but then again I haven't gained anything back, so that's a major plus. Depending on how generous my scale is feeling wi...

Thanks guys for your words of support! And Deb, your sig makes me think of a similar joke that I know: A yogi was walking through the park and came upon a hot dog stand. He told the vendor: "Make me one with everything." :D The followup, of course, is that the vendor makes him a hot dog, tells the y...

Holy S! 25 pounds!
So I'm finally checking back in after being AWOL for awhile. http://everydaysystems.com/bb/viewtopic.php?t=512 is where I was tracking my progress for the longest time, but I figured I'd start up a new one here for my latest progress checkin. I stepped on the scale these past mornings and took a thr...

It's been waaaay too long
Good news & bad news -- bad news first: I've really slacked off in my shovelgloving. I know I *should* be and I can't really use the excuse that I don't have time -- I'm just never good with exercise. I really do want to get back on it, though, I know I was losing weight at a better pace when s-glov...

Re: Back with her tail between her legs...
I have to say that No-S is the closest I have seen to this. I do have some questions though- 1. Must I always eat high quality during the week? 2. What if I find myself very hungry between meals- could I have an apple or something to get me to my next meal? 3. What about lattes? I love an occasiona...

Churning butter variation
So I've been Shovelgloving for about the past 2 weeks now (at least on this attempt to get into it -- it didn't work out so well in December... bygones.) and I think I'm really starting to get into it now. I had posted a question about Churning Butter here about a month ago but I don't think I made ...

It can be the easiest thing in the world to do , but there are times when it's almost frustratingly difficult. I can tell you it's worth it -- I've never before had anyone ask me if I...

Okay, so I had one of these posts on the Daily Check-In Forum for No- S and it really seemed to help, so I figured I'd try one here for Shovelglove.

I was still no- S -ing but I had quite a few days off from work that I counted as S -days, and while I didn't "binge", per se, I definitely overate. I managed to gain back about 3 or 4 pounds of...
