Everyday Systems

Good idea. Diets are like children. Your own are far more interesting to you than they are to anyone else even if they feign polite interest. I've dropped about 10lbs and a few people have noticed. No one, however, has asked me how I did it. People really don't want to talk about dieting. You're so...

Hi There!

I have been on so many diets that I'm sure people think I'm a complete fool! This time I'm only telling my husband and no one else. If anyone asks me how I lost the weight, then i will tell them!

Hello, I've been swimming in a sea of diets off and on for a few years and I am drowning!!!! In the interest of not totally losing my mind I've decided to take some time off and just focus on maintaining my weight for a while even though I am overweight. If this plan can help me avoid getting fatte...

Good luck!

Hi There! Is anyone else starting on Monday October 24? I just had my big 60 birthday and am determined to get in shape. I also have fibromyalgia so this limits my exercise a little bit. I have been very inspired by people on this forum however. I'm starting week 1 with no snacks as this causes the ...

Hi Guys! Just starting over after getting sidetracked onto low carb. I like the three calendars idea! Also at this time of year you start getting free calendars from everyone so that could be a good thing now! Bye the way, I did lose weight on low carb but gained it all back and more. It's just not ...

Hi Everyone! I threw away my bathroom scale and stopped diets of any kind a couple of months ago. I've been feeling so good (mentally) until i went to my doctors' today for my annual physical. I've gained even more weight. I literally don't know where to start. Tomorrow is an S day of course and so...

Well Welcome Back! I find that low carb dieting works very well for me on a weight loss level. However I struggle in other areas with them: intestinal issues mainly, and I notice I get pain in my sternum area, possibly gall bladder? If a person can swing low carb I am happy for them. Because I know...

Yesterday (Wed) was my first day on No S and i did really well up until the evening when I gave in and ate two sugar free chocolate puddings, But i realise that at this stage it is all about setting up new habits so i will try again today. Maybe i will only eat 1 sugar free chocolate pudding tonight...

Try making a fat free latte with instant coffee and hot milk, no sugar, At least it's not eating. i think the diet allows sugar free drinks.

hi, there really isn't a "blog" section on this site, but you can always go and start a blog and link to it for people here to read, using blogger or live journal or whatever other sites are out for blogging. but if you want to start a daily check in thread, just go to that section from the home pa...

Is there some place i am missing? How do i start a blog?

I initially wrote my perception of "No-S" phases on another thread. I've been thinking about it further and would like to expand on it and offer it for more discussion. This is from my perception as a long-time No-Ser, who struggled with diets/weight control before coming here. (You can read my tes...

Hi Everyone! You probably don't remember me but I'm back after a visit to the Land of low carb dieting! At first I was very successful in this strange land where all the so called bad foods were suddenly good and all the so called good foods were suddenly bad! I actually lost 20 lbs living mostly on...

I would think that Thanksgiving itself is the ultimate S day. Look forward to it! So as long as you don't cheat before Thanksgiving and try to get rid of the left overs after Thanksgiving,,the day is yours!

Hi Everyone. It's been a while. For some reason No S didn't work for me although I really wanted it to and I loved the concept. Funnily enough I eventually found success with another program that was also invented by just an ordinary guy so to speak. Just in case anyone is struggling - the book and ...

Thanks. I like the general idea but it seems very complicated on the special page you have set up. I am thinking of using this system to cut back on my two glasses of wine per day.

I don't know if anyone is still trying this system, but i am going to give it a try and like the designations: Producer, Director and Actors.

I totally agree with you all! Although there is a quarter of a million dollars at stake for the eventual winnners )biggest losers) I don't know if any amount would pay the price opf the humiliation those people go through!

Ahhhh! That sounds good! Thank you!

Back on No S after Thanksgiving , the extra couple of pounds have disappeared, but today I was so exhausted after dealing with a bunch of energetic 4th graders all afternoon. I ended up at Starbucks on my way home where I sadly indulged my sweet tooth! Oh well, back to the drawing board! What do ot...

This morning I weighed an all time high for me of 189 pounds. I started No S the day before Thanksgiving. For Thanksgiving we traveled to Californiafor 5 days. It is hard when you are changing time zones, staying with sombody else and eating out all the time. Now we are back home and I am in control...

Hi!
This is my first day - I must be crazy starting the day before Thanksgiving but i was encouraged by reading the message boards on this topic.

Are there any other crazy newcomers out there?
