Hoeka in 2011
It's been a while ... I joined last year, and had a pretty good run No-S wise, some exercise hicccups, some bad glass ceiling days, then went home to spend Christmas with my family and well, life just happened, I guess. My starting weight last year was 80 kg, and at 1,58 m, that’s waaaaay too much...

I don't own a scale, but go to the pharmacy once a month to be weighed. I think that if I weighed myself every day, or even weekly, I'd focus on the short term results, and, as other posters have remarked, it's so easy then to then act impulsively based on what the scale said. Somebody here posted a...

Fresh-baked read .... you have my drooling all over the laptop. I'm pretty close to useless in the kitchen, but one thing I want to do next year is to bake sourdough bread I also still battle with meal sizes: I tend to overload my plate, and then discard some of the food. This is something that, wit...

New year traditions
No no, no not NY resolutions (I wouldn't inflict those on you). What do you do to ring in the new year? I love reading and the concept of having "too many books" is utterly alien to me. I try to make my first purchase of the new year a new book: it makes me feel that the coming year will be full of ...

Thurs 16/12/2010 Another bad breakfast day: I really really really don't like breakfast, and have to force myself to eat it. Just can't stomach food - even the thought of it - so early in the morning. I try to eat breakfast at 7, lunch at 1, supper at 7. Perhaps I should eat breakfast later: 10 feel...

Wed 15/12/2010 No S Exercise Glass ceiling Yay, an all-green day! Came veryveryvery close to cracking yesterday (Wed) afternoon. Decided that I would have an early supper. The hunger pains then seemed to disappear, and I actually had supper later than normal. One reason for this hunger is that I hav...

I saw it too, KCCC and was quite inpsired by the idea. Most New Year's resolutions are pretty generic, one-size-fits-all, but having to focus on only one word forces one to sit down and really think about the year ahead. Another approach I've seen is "word of the month", where the particular word is...

Callie, No S hasn't been much of a problem - in fact, Sat & Sun were more N-ish than S-ish. My real problem is the glass ceiling; also the main reason for the excess weight I'm carrying. Should maybe do a longer post about that, I'm sure there's lots of advice out there Tues 7/12 No S Planned our Ch...

I don't that that your Dec is really doomed: you are focussing on No S failures, but look at your other successes in the past. You have a lot to be proud of. Dec is difficult, and your idea of focussing on one S will help you to establish that habit; come Jan, you will have the no-sweets habit under...
