I think that is what is so good about no s. We really get to come face to face with our own gluttony!

Sunday went well. I had desert after supper, and enjoyed it. Felt a lot better than Saturday!

I'm so sorry to hear about your friend. Any news yet?

That sounds absolutely lovely to me considering it was 107 today and humid to boot! And I have spent most of today huddled in front of a warm fire. I ran 10km this morning in driving sidewards freezing rain straight off the sea..... We need to blend this weather out! Saturday. S day ( and just as w...

Friday. Sadly...fail

Breakfast. Porridge
Lunch. Soup and a roll.
Supper. Mash potatoes, veg and gravy.


And after supper......birthday cake! Opps.

Exercise, hour on a stormy beach with dog.

Hi Jess, Just dropping in to say hi. I admire how you plan ahead when you see potential pitfalls. I had an extra s day yesterday, my daughters 21st birthday, and it was great to mark it as a special day, and enjoy myself with everyone else :) I just ate what we all ate and enjoyed myself with no gui...

Congratulations on the weight loss!

Tuesday. Breakfast: porridge Lunch: 2 slices homemade sourdough with hummus, tomatoes, and lettuce. Supper: homemade cottage pie Exercise: 7 km run, beach and estuary Minor victory over habit. I was really hungry going into supper, and wanted seconds. But I didn't have any and it was fine. In fact i...

I'm a porridge eater, I sweeten mine with fruit and dates. Yum! I think flavoured porridge sounds fine to me, but I'm another one who would rather make my own porridge and add the golden syrup myself.

Enjoy

Hi ginger, yes having maintained a significant weight loss for 3 years, living life and not let dieting or maintaining or whatever define you. Thus is why I am back to no s.....you don't even have to think about it normally, just get on with your life. Focusing 'on life in general' is what it should...

Hi Ginger, thanks for stopping by.

Monday.
Breakfast: porridge
Lunch: left over homemade curry and rice from last night
Supper: pasta with caramelised onions, sweet peppers, and mushrooms.

Exercise, hour on the beach with the dog

Plus lots of cups of tea......

Ok starting a daily diary to see if it helps :) Me: 53 years of age. KIT are my initials not my name. Mum of 3, mostly all grown...2 coeliacs and 1 anaphylactic! So food has been an issue for the last 24 years! Hubby and I looking forward to a child free home in the next few years! Live in New Zeala...

Congratulations!

One of my friends had a binge/purge thing going on, and during recovery she used to go to the supermarket and buy all her trigger foods....then put them in the food bank on the way out! I don't know why but it really helped her! (And helped the food bank too!)

Yeah, biscuits means cookies I think! Sweet with sometimes chocolate or icing on top. Oolala, We have been vegan (plant based) since 2012, when hubby and I finally joined our two daughters, one vegan, one vegetarian. I really like the food, and it fits our ethics. However I know lots of yummy vegan ...

First hurdle. Friday. A group of people most over 60 and some over 70 trying to sort stuff out of a container where it has been since our meeting house was demolished after the earthquakes and into our new building. I am in my 50's and one of only 2 people under 60. Shovel glove has nothing on me! I...

Hi, and welcome.

I'm both old and new! I havnt been here for 6 years or so.

There is only one thing better than starting no s on Friday....and that's starting on a Saturday!

I have not read the article yet, but I am a HUGE fan of John Bingham. I started 'run 1 minute, walk 1 minute' about 4 years ago. I was this huge fat woman lumbering red faced down the beach. I used to repeat to myself a mantra I took from John Bingham. He said “If you run, you are a runner. It doe...

Hi Tacodiscos and Gingerpie, good to meet you. Yes I'm sorry I had to come back too, but on the other hand, I've done it before, I can do it again. And it's better to catch it now rather than wait (weight!) until matters get really bad. And maybe I have something I can help others with as well. Taco...

Hello, I joined in 2009, I think and posted maybe 5 or 6 times. I read all the stuff through, and over the next 6 years I lost 40kg,( 80 pounds?)and took up endurance trail running. Now it has not been all NoS, I have been eating a plant based diet for much of that time, and a few other diets as wel...

Hello I am happy to be back. NoS'ing has worked in the past and I am sure as chips is chips (as long as they fit on my plate) that it will work again. I have 2 coeliac children and one anaphylatic, so food rules are the order of the day in our house. The no S diet is such a blessing as it does not m...

Hello, i was here very briefly, lost a few pounds and got sick! I had flu...with a vengeance. Walking to the loo was a major undertaking so exercise was out of the question. So was shopping and I felt so ill....I ate what was in the house on the occasions i could get to it. I also ate what my hubby ...

Are these s-days!? Its not so much the eating as the jog on the beach. I feel lousy, and all I want to do is go back to bed. I have to go to the bank (pay mortgage) but after that all I want to do is go back to bed. I'm just so proud of having no reds on my habit cal. Sore throat, headache, and that...

Hi, I live on the South island of NZ. As a youngster I was painfully skinny, I started to put on weight after my first kid...not a lot, I was just a little plump after having her. So I went on a diet. Big mistake, I lost the weight, but it all came back and brought lots of friends and relations to v...
