Very boring! I've focused on diets since 2000 and I'm bored AND still fat!

Play with your kids, clean out a closet, look at clothes you used to love that don't fit right now, do your nails, call a friend, brush your teeth, clean house, etc. Whatever it takes to focus on something besides food/dieting.

Does Diet to Go have higher carb plan options? I'm not familiar with it but sounds wonderful to have food delivered!

I'm a believer (for me) in weighing daily or at least twice a week. I tend to gain if I don't because I let things slide. On a side note....I was thinking... No offense to the No-S program because it really is a catchy way to remember some very basic habits of naturally thin people but I don't want ...

Starting to lose weight!

I'm just coming off of low-carb. Do you need quick results from low carb for an event or something?

Another Success day

Find it interesting that without in between meal snacking, I'm averaging 1500-1700 calories a day quite easily. I love that I'm creating a near 1000 calorie a day deficit without having to overthink it (or actually count those calories unless I feel like it).

Personally, I feel less stress eating this way. Instead of trying to eat healthy all day, now I just have to focus on that three times a day.

Sounds like good choices.

What LA Loser says makes sense. Your body may need time to adjust. I'm finding that since the birth of my second child late last year, my weight will not budge and it is very scary.

What are your food choices like? If they aren't healthy choices, that may be the first place to start.

Scale is still up the same 1/2 pound

S day

If you feel guilty eating it....that's probably your answer.

Had a total N Day without really trying yesterday.

Was up 1/2 pound today.

Finished up strong today.

Wow....you really do well with No-S! Medicinal bananas.....love it!

Thanks Marleah!

Hanging tough here!

So I'm assuming that non-calorie drinks like coffee, water, tea are all good in between meals?

I pretty much just drink water all day but I sip two cups of coffee (black)throughout the first part of the morning. However, in the summer I love herbal iced teas.

I go in spurts. I weigh daily sometimes, weekly sometimes, etc. I like weighing daily when I'm committed to losing weight. If the scale is down or up, it gives me ideas on what I need to adjust. If I gain 2lbs in a day but know I ate high salt the day before, I don't freak out. I weighed this mornin...

Starting No-S today.

Thanks Everyone! I need to set up the habitcal deal and a daily check in sometime today.

I am going for a GREEN day today for sure!!

Hi Everyone, I'm looking to lose 105lbs....yikes. I had lost 60lbs on Atkins and maintained it for three years before getting pregnant, still maintained the loss after delivery. Last February, I got pregnant with baby #2 and gained 45lbs which I have not been able to budge since giving birth due to ...
