Everyday Systems

...here's what;s been working for me...Rhinehard mentioned that you can have 4 meals if you need it...with my blood sugar issues, i probably should, but i wanted to keep that "fence around the rules" and keep it to 3. So at night, I have a drink...a Sugar Free Hot Cocoa to be exact. I also load in a...

...and good for you. Don'y be too hard on yourself, greet Monday with a`smile and take it one day at a time.

Hi Folks, It is so much fun jumping on here and seeing your encouraging responses...this group is so warm, genuine, honest and intelligent. Reinhard, you really could publicize this and make a mint, but it is funbeing here on the ground floor with this. I have to tell you, I am still enjoying this s...

Thanks Daisy....yes, i find them most annoying and mentally vote them "most likely to be caught in the bakery" too! LOL

...I appreciate the good cheer! And, indeed, it is very god to know there are no lecturers, no person who raises their hand in a crowd and talks about how they freeze individual grapes and pretend it is a cheesecake...very empowering isn't it!

Hi Folks, I am continuing to love NoS...in a big way. It has been nearly 3 weeks now. I had the family hide the scale a few years ago and I only "weight in" at doctors offices. Went to the Dr. yesterday and I've lost between 12-15 lbs. on NoS! I am also feeling great! The other thing is that I picke...

...love it love it love it...and the Vodka sauce dish sounded most awesome too. I noticed something interesting. On N days I can be a bit more tired and I don't push it too too hard, but on S days (when i know I can eat a little more if I need to) I have gotten much more active. yesterday I walked f...

Glad to hear it Deb.

On the note, can you imagine how you will feel when you hit 199?

You will go to the doctor and say to the Nurse...nope, sorry, you have to move that bottom weight over to the 50 lb. notch on the left!!! LOVE THAT THOUGHT!

Deb,

Are things any better for you now? I am delighted to hear about your weight reduction on No S, but I am not happy to think about you not having grocery money at the moment...you are such a lovely person from what I can see...is this a temporary situation, is everything ok?

...for me, it is about the no snacking. It is so hard not to eat between meals and allowing it on S days made it hard to hit the N again...I didn't indulge much on the S's, but I enjoyed snacking...let's see how this week goes....

22 lbs...WOW!

Hi Deb, I just meant that I felt like I had just adjusted to the no snacking et al and than, I was allowed to again...for 2 days...so Monday felt like day one. No one said it would be easy, but it is good. I wondered if I should not do an S day for a while, but I do believe that causes rebound and o...

Hi Folks,

i know that the "no deprivation/enjoy a sane S day" is a key long term strategy, but I kind of feel like my stride of N's was brkon by the S's and it has been harder to be an N.

How have you dealt w/ habit formation vs. the rules of the game??

Dear NSers, Thank you for the wam welcome and Reinhart, thank you for the advice (website et al). I didn't think of having milk before bed...probably because we have been so well trained that milk is an evil calorie-carrying beverage and we should be chewing our calories. I just have so many good th...

...Funny enough, tonight was easier...it is 10:35 and I am not "nighttime starving." I know this is the Honeymoon period, but i do have high hopes for this and it has been fun reading everyone's posts. I am not from L.I., but my parents and my sister's family live there now...Oceanside and Woodmere....

Hello Everyone, My name is Robin and I am a married, 40 y.o. mother of three. I have to tell you, the No S Diet really grabed my attention. It just makes soooooo much sense. This is my 3rd day on the plan. It is so wonderful to go out for a meal, to put a little margarine on that cauliflower, and to...
