Sue- Your post was very helpful to me. I like the image of an "open book test" or "taking off the training wheels." So far, I'm not doing too well on the test, but I am learning a lot about myself and my body. Your insights helped clarify some of the benefits of S days (other than that we can eat sw...

Like many others, I ate everything that wasn't nailed down on S days at first. I was relieved on Mondays to put it behind me... and I still slowly lost pounds. Now I am more restrained, not because I want to lose faster, but because after almost a year, I don't feel as if I am losing out if I don't ...

I plan like Noel. I usually look through recipes and pick for the week and then go shopping. I like recipes I can freeze too so that I don't have to cook all the time. Planning the night before saves me a lot of time and relieves me of the "What should we have for dinner?" dilemma when I'm tired and...

I'm 5'1". I'm also 54 years old. Combine those two together and you have a recipe for difficult weight loss/maintenance. On NoS I lost about 10 pounds that I gained when my husband was in Iraq last year. That was mostly because he doesn't snack, so I toned it way down too. Now NoS is helping me stay...

I find that if I ignore it and/or drink a bunch of water, that I will forget about it fairly quickly. When I first started NoS, I was in the habit of snacking in the morning and late afternoon (OK, after dinner too!) I was super-hungry, with grinding stomach noises, at my habitual snacking times. Af...

I'm pretty close to my goal weight, and I think that it goes slower and slower as you get closer to the goal. I lose about a pound a month now. That's fine with me since it's way better than gaining! I figure I'm on NoS for life, so I'll keep eating the way I'm eating and pretty soon I'll be at a ba...

Hi Carrie. Welcome. I'm impressed that it only took you a couple months to lose the baby weight. It took me longer than that, but it was worth it. I hear you on the sugar. Eating sugary things seems to turn a mental (maybe physical) switch in me and my self-restraint goes out the window. I feel like...

Operababe- I love the one you posted, "Life by the mile is a trial, Life by the inch is a cinch." That's one of my main motivators in life - I can get almost anything done bit by bit. That's how I finally got my doggone master's thesis done. That's how I look at weight loss and maintenance too. -Mon...

Good post...thank you. I've been doing really well on NoS until this last week. My sister had a house fire and her legs from the knees to the toes were badly burned (2nd degree...it's pretty ugly). She and my nephew moved in with my husband and me (into the living room) with clothing, medical suppli...

Hi- I have a similar timing issue with meals during the school year. (I teach middle school.) My husband and I get up at 4:30 AM and he's out the door at 4:50. My school lunchtime isn't until 12:45. What I decided to do is eat a bigger breakfast with my husband, but wrap up part of it to eat about 8...

No, you didn't scare me away; I love this NoS habit. I'm not real big, but I don't think there is much difference between the mental issues if you need to lose 200 pounds or 20 pounds. It's an attitude toward food and it's using food to self-medicate (kind of what you just said.) I'm going to try to...

Operababe- That was really interesting. I never thought about analyzing the type of food to determine what kind of hunger (head or heart.) Last night I was sitting there fighting the urge to go buy M&Ms or ice cream. After reading your post, I can see that I was a bit bored and sorry for myself beca...

Hi Ginjer- I weigh about 5 pounds more than you (I'm 5'1"), so I want to throw my two cents into the discussion. Since you probably have very little to lose, it may take a while. I'm lucky to lose one or two pounds a month. What I like about the NoS is that it makes me aware of what I'm really eatin...

Hi Hiker Mom, I've also been lurking for a few weeks and just signed up a couple weeks ago. My biggest challenge was to increase the size of my three meals so that I wouldn't need to snack. I still get pretty hungry for my next meal, but I find that I'm enjoying the meals a lot more because of it. M...

OK. My husband did some searching and came up with a 12 pound and an 8 pound sledgehammer in the depths of the garage. They're pretty cobwebby, but I can clean them up. I really needed to start with a 6 pound but I'll just have to make do with the 8 pounder. How should I modify when using a hammer t...

How about a crowbar?
Hi to everyone. I've been reading your posts for quite a while and finally signed up officially. I'm intrigued with the shovelglove idea, but all our sledgehammers are really heavy. I'm a very short woman, so my husband brought in a crowbar and weighed it...5 pounds. I know it's not weighted like a ...
