Everyday Systems

That sounds like a reasonable "mod" to me. I'm 5 months in, and while I love No S because I feel it's adjusted my relationship to food, I haven't lost enough weight to even mention. Most of this is due to a lack of restriction on S-days. I'm going to try your glass ceiling approach this weekend, and...

I like to drink a glass of buttermilk. For starters, you can't drink that much. It's also really filling, and because it's savoury and yet still has milk sugar, it seems to hit all the right tastebuds for me. Good luck! Maybe it's a hint to go to bed earlier
