3 Meals: Done
No Sweets: Done
No Snacks: Done
No Seconds: Done
Struggling a little bit with temptations and stress but staying focused. Keep telling myself that eating out side of the plan will only add to my stress.
December 20 & 21, 2008 - S Days :D These past two S days I tried to be more conscious of what I was eating and try to evaluate whether or not I really wanted something. I tried to ask myself do I really want this or am I eating this sweet or snack just because it is an S day. It really helped me to ...

Thanks Blueskighs and Janie for your words of encouragment!! December 13 & 14, 2008 - S Days Looking back over the past weekend I realize I need to maybe make some adjustments to how I handle S Days. Allowing snacking on S days opens up for me issues I have with using food for comfort. I'm not sayin...
Loved reading your thoughts on your yellow day. I'm having the same issues with too much snacking on S Days that just makes me feel that I'm out of control which in turn brings on the negative talk. So I am also thinking of putting a little more structure to my S days. I think in the beginning I nee...

Husband suggested after dinner that we get something sweet - I immediately said it is a No S Day. So we didn't get anything sweet. I was pleased with myself.
Count me in too! I up for a 21-Day Vanilla No-S and I really like the extra emphasis on enjoyment! Planning is the one thing that will really help me. The hardest thing for me is to come home from work and try to decide then what's for dinner. This is one of my most vulnerable times of the day for s...

Hi Janie! Just wanted to say that I read your posts from Dec 4th and 5th and found them both so inspiraing. I think it is just great what you said about changes happening on the inside. I'm really wanting changes on the inside because I know that that is what will finally make a difference. Really i...

I feel exactly the way you do - I'm loving this! Love the freedom from food obsession and all the other things that go with that obsession. Little did I know that this way of doing things could make me feel so good about myself. I feel in control and normal. Glad to hear that it is working so well f...
I've been trying to do the No S Diet for several weeks now but have not been very consistent. I really feel that the No S Diet is just what I've been looking for to help me overcome my obsession with food. I'm tired of all the exhausted wasted time I've spent contemplating what I should or shouldn't...
I find what WOSNES said to be what really helps me with my hunger. Eating healthy high fiber foods (vegetables, whole grains, healthy proteins) sustain me much longer than processed foods. Also, I'm starting to drink tea with a little stevia during the morning or afternoon when I'm feeling a little ...
HelloKitty - your post has really encouraged me to try and present this program to my husband. He has never really had a weight problem until the past five years. Over the years I think he has picked up my bad habit of snacking at night. I know if he could just cut out the night snacking he would lo...
Great post EM! Just loved your ramblings. I can totally relate to what you said, I've wasted so much time thinking about what I should or shouldn't eat. This plan has given me such freedom from all that obsessing.
I love what Merry said about the No S Diet: I don't have to decide if I'm truly hungry, if I'm full...if it's mealtime I eat, if not, do something else, problem solved! This is something I didn't realize I was going to experience when I first started. That so much time and effort I put into what I w...
I can relate to everyone's comments. The reason that I'm so interested in the No S Diet is the additional things it brings to my life other than losing weight. What I'm looking for is peace and contentment with food. Yes I would like to lose some weight, but when I look back over my life what has re...
Hi Everyone! My name is Linda. I'm new to the No S Diet, Ive tried a couple of times this month and have had a little problem with sticking with it. But I think most of that is due to not being really committed. So I thought if I posted and introduced myself that this would help strengthen my commit...
