I am eating a half serving of Kashi cereal with 1/2 cup of blueberries before breakfast. Not only is it filling, but it also keeps me regular. I had a lot of gas when I first started eating Kashi breakfast cereal, but that's almost gone now. I made some fantastic chunky tomato soup and it tastes soo...

Yesterday was a SUCCESS. I am starting to feel bloated after I eat a meal. I wonder if that means I am eating too much? I will try smaller meals to see if this helps. This morning it was 1 1/4 oz of Cheerios with 1 cup of blueberries, 12 almonds, 2 T Wheat Germ and 1 cup of skim milk. Very filling. ...

Reneew, thanks for the tips about Leslie Sansone CDs. I like to download my cds onto my MP3 player, since it's easier to carry along. I'll check out her tapes on line and see what's available. I used to have all of her walking cds but I gave them away because I was walking in my kitchen and I got bo...

Sunday, May 31st. Went to grandson's birthday party and had birthday cake and ice cream - good thing it was an "S" day, had no guilt eating it. The dinner was hamburgers or bratwurst on big buns, cream cole slaw and creamy potato salad and lots of chips. How many carbs can you have on one table? I h...

Oh my, I can't believe it's been this long since I posted. I am doing fairly well with the No S Diet and am enjoying my S days with desserts. Some days I will eat more desserts and then I won't have any the next day, just depends on how I feel. Having just 1 day with desserts seems to "settle" my de...

Today we were invited out for lunch at the local restaurant for a birthday lunch. I ordered smart, grilled chicken, roasted vegetables and fresh strawberries. When I got to the strawberries, a large chocolate lava cake was brought out and everybody sang happy birthday to the birthday girl (not me). ...

This week has been a flow of SUCCESS. I weighed myself today and I am down in weight. Not what I had thought it would be, but I forgot I had a week off with the munchies. This week has been very good. The doctor told me I wouldn't have to wear a cpap machine at night if I lost some weight. I don't w...

LapBand and 6 months
Eva, I think it's a good idea to give yourself 6 momths before you decide on the lap band.
What is the chronic pain from?
I am struggling also with 3 meals a day, my body is soooo used to that snack every morning and every afternoon!!!

Eva, I think that's a good plan. Go for the 6 months of supervised weight loss and then decide. I have many friends that have gone the gastric bypass and lap band route and were sorry they didn't try it on their own first. By the way, they all have regained all the weight they lost after their surge...

Well, it's been a few days since I've been here and they weren't good days either. After pigging out and getting my body and eating back into it's regular mode, along came Mother's Day. My son brought a huge ice cream cake and there was leftovers. I spent Mother's Day eating the cake as well as my r...

I hope you are eating enough food so your body isn't starving for nutrtion. A half cup of 3 things doesn't sound like much. If you are exercising, you will need more calories as well as proteins. No point in beating ourselves up for our eating habits, they are something we have to live with and make...

Hooray, I lost 8 lbs. But it doesn't end there, tonite I slipped into an old habit and consumed more sweets than I can eat on days with S. I have no idea what set this eating off, but I really thought I "could eat just one". Nope, doesn't happen that way. I really love the No S Diet and feel bad tha...

I am feeling so good about my food. I am eating many of the foods that I have denied myself for years! No, it's not sugars or sweets, but good-old fashioned "meat & potatoes" type food. I am not overfilling my plates = although I admit the first few days I did that - and I am satisified. Tonite I ha...

I was sooo tired of journalling or counting points and when I found the No S Diet book, I was thrilled to find something that didn't take rationalizing to do. I've been on No S since last Friday and I am feeling so liberated, I may even throw away my journal books!! I just couldn't keep up with the ...

Arlene's daily check in
I picked up No S Diet book at library and started on the program on May 1st. The weekend was difficult because I was allowing myself to have dessert without guilt. That didn't happen, I still felt guilty eating sweets. By Sunday, eating sweets felt like I was commiting a sin. I hope this goes away. ...

I don't like working hard at creating a meal. I use the foil packages of tuna and chicken and a plateful of romaine lettuce and shredded carrots, quick and easy and doesn't need refrigeration. The crockpot is my friend as well. I toss in chicken breasts and throw in a jar of salsa and let it cook wh...
