Thank you, everyone, for your well-wishes. We've been travelling and I am now just checking in. For Joasia, here is a typical menu: B: Toast with bit of butter, 1 egg, some veggies (often sauteed), small glass of juice (like 4 oz). This combo is my favorite breakfast because I can easily mix it up w...

What changes are you planning to make to your review? I'm pretty sure I read it (once, long ago) and thought it on the money.... I probably should write my own review even though I don't think I have anything new to add... except maybe that fact that I still love it, six years down the road... Mmmm....

Re: Newcomer needs help with diet anxiety
From what I've read, I am under the impression that several active posters here have struggled with this and overcome it. Please, do you have any advice? With info overload, I've always found it helpful to go back, way back, to the basics. Namely, healthy people everywhere and throughout history ha...

Joyfully celebrating 6!!!! years of NoS Satisfaction
Greetings, Fellow NoS-ers! This past summer, I passed my 6th year mark of discovering and implementing NoS habits. I still love it and find its simple, livable "structure without too much structure" great through all the seasons of life. We flex between being just two of us at home (kids grown and ...

Re: Giant Plate
Good thinking! You've got your plan, now work it! We are rooting for you.Swuddly wrote: I don't want to try to rationalize excess, just because it fits on the ridiculous plate. I go to events with these plates several times per year, so I want to begin as I mean to go on.

I have learnt that, in the vast majority of my tempting moments, the more personally satisfying my meals are, the less I miss sweets at mealtimes :P :) _____ I've personally found this to be true as well. The better my meals (particularly in terms of enjoyment), the less seconds, snacks, and sweets...

Mods: My S days have always been Friday and Sunday because that lined up the best with our normal weekly schedule from the very beginning.

While I didn't have an ingrained snacking habit when I first started NoS, I took full advantage of Seconds, Sweets, and Snacks every weekend, eating whenever one of the family did, particularly joining my husband for a "little something" to go with our coffee all day long. But then it dawned on me t...

I agree with the others that getting down NoS habits ought to be your first and foremost goal. And Vanilla NoS nips eating too much without noticing when watching tv or reading while enjoying a meal. However, I have found, like Germanherman, many other benefits to eating slowly and mindfully and am ...
