Back from Intermittent Fasting Hell

Giving No S another (hopefully more persistent!) try, after trying the "Delay, Don't Deny" route for over a year, with no success whatsoever. I did learn that I can fast up to 22 hours a day and not die. I also learned that, when my window opens, I binge-eat like the old days before I fixed my disor...

Crustless quiche?

I’m planning to make soups on the weekend and package for my lunches at work. Also, this recipe for crustless quiche is wonderful and adaptable to whatever you like — I use Swiss cheese, onion and bacon for quiche Lorraine. Use heavy cream and it’s low-carb. You can reheat it gently in the mic...

It's really amazing what a transformation takes place when you apply discipline to any area of your life. We live in such an "anything goes" age, to our detriment, I think. Congratulations and blessings on your journey, Imogene!

Hello again -- I'm back!

Having another go at it. Weight is creeping back up from my 20 pound Weight Watchers loss, and I just can't do the WW thing again. I can't stand thinking about and obsessing over every single bite I put in my mouth -- so much psychic energy wasted! That's what I love about No S. The parameters are s...

Cyn's Daily

I'm back, after having lost 20 pounds on Weight Watchers over the summer. After that, I stalled out -- just couldn't take counting things any more! Or eating ersatz food just to save the points. While I haven't put back more than a few pounds in the three months I've been free-wheeling it, I have de...

Cynthya Starts Over!

Kinda peeved with myself that I didn't keep going when I started several weeks ago ... I'm back at my starting weight. That's okay -- I don't EVER intend to see those numbers on my scale again! I tried going back to counting calories -- let's face it, that's not sustainable over time (or, for me, lo...

Yesterday was my first day back to No S after a weekend of "S"-ing. Not so easy getting back on the wagon. Especially when the Christmas fudge and gingersnaps I'd make on Saturday kept whispering, "Eat me!" all day!

Day 3: Success!

I know I'm not supposed to weigh every day, but it's a habit ... I'm down nearly 4 pounds just from two days of doing this! It's amazing how much of a difference giving up random snacking and sweets is making. Unbelievable!

Actually bypassed movie theatre popcorn -- even though my husband was having some! I feel fantastic!

Cynthya's Daily Check-in

Finally getting around to doing No S seriously ... Today was a great day -- actually threw a stray HoHo in the trash rather than have it sit around and tempt me. I'm amazed at how wholesome this way of eating feels. +
