Everyday Systems

L: 2 oz pulled pork on 1/2 sandwich bun w/pickles & 1Tbsp BBQ sauce D: Cold Cut sandwich: 2 slice wheat bread, 1 tbsp mayo, 1 slice fat-free cheese, pickles, 2 oz lean ...

MIA for the past few days. Busy with exercise and preparing for my son's B'Day coming up. Been doing a lot of exercising too. I did not write down my menu for Thursday and Friday because I mostly ate on the run. Sat & Sun were S-Days. Today's menu: B: Homemade protein shake L: 4oz pulled pork, 1 tbs...

L: 1 1/2 cups Salad greens, 4oz boneless chicken, Feta, grape tomatoes, vinaigrette. D: 1/2 cup rice, 1/2 cup red beans w/smoked saus...

Okay! Today started off really well! I decreased my portions on my meals. I was so hungry in between! I'm sorry, but today was the most difficult. Mostly because of the a new stresser at work, that developed today. Fell off the wagon so to speak after 3:00 p.m. Had a piece of chicken after dinner (l...

Thanks!

By-product from years of doing every diet known to man!

Thursday- B: Open face sandwich w/1 Slice wheat bread, light mayo,lettuce & Tomato, water. L: 2 pc Roasted chicken, 1/2 cup rice with red beans, diet soda. D: Ch...

B: 1 slice wheat bread, 4oz lean ham, light mayo pickles, water L: 4oz pulled pork w/2 Tsp BBQ sauce, green salad w/vinaig...

MIA for a couple of days after returning from vacation. Picked up a nasty stomach virus while in Texas. :( The long drive home did not help at all. I seem to be on the mend now. Will start gradually with the No S rules again. I will divide my breakfast and lunch into two meals because I'm having to ...

Looking at my EOB from my doctor's visits last month, a thought came to me.

"If snacks and sweets were a necessity, it would be covered by my medical insurance!"

I absolutely agree with you there!

However, I have always eaten fruit as a part of a meal or with protein. For some reason, fruit on its own always gave me gas or diarrhea, or it made me hungrier in between meals.

Now with No S, even sweets tend to upset my stomach.

Another successful day. :) Boring though, because I didn't exercise, and with work being closed these last 5 days, I've been somewhat complacent. I need routine. I work so much and have to deal with the kids during the school year until Summers, and more than one day off from work at home is somewha...

I had a really excessive weekend -- it was pretty much the first time since I've started where I felt like I was just eating compulsively, for the sake of cramming food in my mouth. I don't know WHAT that was about! Except that I was really tired? I haven't had excessiveness like this, but I have h...

Thanks mimi! You are so right. I decided to Mark it and Move on. I'm gonna change my signature also. It turns out that chocolate is NOT a woman's best friend! LOL! :lol: Check my HabitCal 6/26 & 27 are already marked as S days because I will be out of town those days at a Family Reunion. The day of ...

It's been a week and the stress wondering what to eat is gone, however the temptation has returned. I stayed at the doctor's office way too long, got stuck in traffic and had to miss my Monday evening work out scheduled for 5:30 p.m. Stopped at a gas station and caved in to the temptation of chocola...

Welcome Cin! I don't have any advice only implementing the No S way for a week. I will say that mentally I feel free! Adding exercise to my lifestyle way before doing the No S way has made improving my diet much easier. My condolences on the passing of your mother. My mother-in-law passed away here ...

Welcome 'fightisleavin'! I've only followed the No S for just a week, and I must say It is the most stress free way to eat. I haven't lost any weight yet but after the countless number of diets I've tried, this is the first thing that took away all the stress. I don't constantly worry about what I'm...

Today was an S day. Father's Day dinner. Had dessert without guilt. Cooked the dinner myself, so I could remain in control. B: 2 strips bacon, 1/2 belgian waffle w/2 tbsp syrup, coffee without sugar. Half & Half only. L: No lunch. Breakfast was late. D: Hmde meatloaf, sauteed green beans w/mushrooms...

Today, I had to tell myself that this was an S day! I still didn't go for the bag of cookies. Instead I had a piece of fruit with my granola cereal for breakfast. That was all the sweet I needed for the day. No snacks either! Food today as follows: B: Granola cereal & milk, Gala apple water L: Hmde ...

Hi emd! Like what you're doing and thanks for welcoming me. If I'm not being to forward, might add a piece of advice? Take the word "failure" out of your vocabulary. Use the words Reinhard uses "Slip ups". Failure indicates YOU are a failure or YOU have failed. That is not true! Look at this as a wa...

Thanks for the welcome emd1212! Yes! No S is very refreshing! I don't really look at it as a diet, but a little lifestyle change that reap BIG rewards! I have trouble exercising and dieting together. But, with No S, it's Nooooo problem! LOL! To complete my initial post: Day 5 D: Favorite salad - Rom...

Right after reading the No S Diet, I heard a voice inside my head say

"Food can save your life or kill you. It's your choice!

Just enough will keep you alive, too much will kill you (sickness, disease, etc).

Enough said.

New to the site. Printed the No S Diet from an online site I found almost a year ago. Never read it. Just tucked it into a binder with countless of things printed and forgot about it. Stumbled on it 6 days ago, and it was like "Eureka!" Suddenly everything made sense, and all the diets, calorie coun...
