To answer the original question of the post : When I do NoS, I have 3 meals a day. When I don't do NoS (and put on weight) I have 3 meals + sweet snacks, and occasional binges. When committing to NoS, you get to choose the number of your meals, with a strong preference and recommendation for the cul...

7/12 : SUCCESS again. It's Friday today. Don't feel like going to my weekdaily walk during lunchbreak, but still, I have to. Today is the last day of the 3 first weeks on habit, and tomorrow is weekend, so I'll get rest then. Yesterday night, we got invited at a friend's place for dinner. Sticking t...

7/11 : Another SUCCESS on both fronts (nosdiet and exertion) I am beginning to feel tired from this repeated exertion. I was able to go for a 50min walk today, but when I got back to work, I thought of not going tomorrow. But weekend is almost there, and tomorrow is my last day to complete the first...

7/10 : Another SUCCESS on both fronts (nosdiet and exertion) Yesterday night, at the gym, we were riding our bikes on old disco songs. That was fun! (Although the moves the coach asked us to do were pretty disco, so we felt extremely ridiculous, but WTH) Full plate of tagilatelle and bolognes yester...

Good job! Every journey starts with a first step. You don't seem to be overweight, so probably you won't see any significant result to your change of habits. (If you do, I'd be happy if you shared) So don't get discouraged or try to do too much at once. It's not a lose-weight-before-summer race, it'...

TUK's sporadaily check-in
Hello guys ! I'm coming back to NoS after a year off. I have started on Monday 6/25, and up until now, I had two full-green weeks, plus yesterday. I simply decided to forge good habits again after my scales told me 91 (kg, that's precisely 200#) I'm 5'8" tall, male, 31 years old. I also, on the same...

Good job on resisting. I find that you're doing extremely well, so keep up! :) Don't want to be the details' advocate, but 4 meals a day is not a mod on the diet. The diet only recommends to stick to your cultural number of meals. If you like to have tea in the afternoon (and, according to your scre...
