Good idea, Reinhard. I think I'll call it a mini-meal.
ETA: Forgot to mention I'm also at three weeks of exercise at least 5 days a week! It's beginning to feel like a real routine at last.

Yesterday was Day 22 of fail-free, vanilla No S for me. Go me! I'm really loving the lack of food obsession. I am adding a tweak for my next 21-day cycle, allowing a certain type of afternoon snack on days in which I run in the evenings. I have mild gastroparesis, which means my stomach takes longer...

You'll get used to not having sweets during the week. I LOVE sweets and have a huge sweet tooth, and wasn't sure I could ever do without my 3 p.m. sugary snack, but I replaced it with a cup of coffee or herbal tea and after a few days I stopped craving the sweet snacks. I still wish I could have ice...

Tuesday - SUCCESS . Kind of a weird day. Had a turkey club and some carrots for lunch, and for some reason I wasn't ravenous when I got home like I usually am. I went for a two-mile run and felt fine. Afterwards had a glass of chocolate milk (I do not count this as an S if I'm hungry or am drinking ...

Friday was a SUCCESS , and after a weekend of moderate S-days, I had to take an NWS day yesterday... the Sick kind. I switched medications on Sunday and felt awful yesterday, so I figured whatever I could stomach would be fine to eat (I couldn't even manage black coffee). Therefore, Monday I was EXE...

Thursday - SUCCESS ! I had no trouble resisting the unexpected spread of bagels and fruit that appeared in our kitchenette. At lunch I discovered that the free samples of Yoplait Delights yogurt, which I had decided would be permissible with lunch because they are artifically sweetened, are WAY too ...

Wednesday - SUCCESS ! This was the first no-S day I can remember on which I didn't get hungry at all in the afternoon, although I was starving by the time I got home around 7. I had half a sandwich and two kinds of salad for lunch (one Greek and one with lots of fruit and poppyseed dressing). For di...

I was out of town for a couple of days visiting family, but I'm happy to report that Monday and Tuesday were both SUCCESSES . Also, my first weekend of S-days was quite nice. I enjoyed hot chocolate Saturday morning, a piece of coffee cake at Starbucks, ice cream with my boyfriend on Saturday night,...

Friday - SUCCESS ! Interestingly, I was ravenous when I got to the airport for my evening flight and ordered a combo meal at the Chinese place, but I only ended up eating maybe half of it. I missed having fruit at lunch and dinner. Guess I've gotten used to it. Today is an S-day, and I plan to enjoy...

Thursday - SUCCESS ! I surprised myself by not being hungry all afternoon after a smallish lunch. Had a delicious grilled cheese sandwich for dinner with a side of blueberries and yogurt. At my poker game, there were tons of snacks (almonds, stuffed grape leaves and cherries) that looked delicious, ...

Wednesday - SUCCESS ! Had the weirdest dinner last night. Leftover rainbow chard, Trader Joe's pork potstickers with teriyaki sauce, and leftover boiled potatoes with shavings of Spanish cheese. The chard and the potstickers went well together... the potatoes, not so much! I'm surprised by the huge ...

I did NoS for a while lots of years ago and thought it was great, although I can't remember how long I did it (at least several weeks) or whether I lost any weight. Now I'm giving it another go, prompted by a gain of a few pounds after a fabulous vacation, but generally seeking a middle ground betwe...
