Hi Kathleen. Looking at some of your notes, it seems like the most successful weightloss came from NoS. You were able to stick with it the longest, and have the best results. I imagine as your weight came down, some tweaking of it would be necessary as your body would simply need less calories. Sinc...

Hi Sienna. Thanks for the pep talk :) I've actually dropped another couple of pounds since so I'm pretty happy. And it's a good reminder about how well No S works in the long term. My friend has gone on Atkins and just lost 10 pounds in 10 days. I almost got sucked back into trying it with her becau...

Hi Bright Angel. Have you tried lowering your theromstat? Shivering burns more calories , I hear:) Just kidding !! It's a tough situation when you're being that disciplined and still face weight gain. It's seems rather unfair.

Hi Bright Angel. You said increasing exercise has not been effective. Did that include muscle building? I wonder if that might help since we lose muscle mass as we get older, and muscle does burn more calories than fat.

Thanks, for that article, Bright Angel. It's kind of funny, because I've always noticed that things that are good for you one day seem to be bad for you the next, and this helps explain why. Nothing like confusing the masses.

Very interesting discussion. Kathleen, you'll have to let us know how the fasting works for you. I tend to agree with Bright Angel that this might be setting you up for little or no weight loss, and perhaps weight gain. I'm also thinking this method is also another guise of binge/deprivation which t...

So I'm back NoS'ing, no BS'ing :) I got off to a rocky start at the beginning of the month with Easter and all, and while I could make the week all the way through okay, I seemed to crash and burn on the S days and undo all the progress from the previous week.
