Moxie's Check-in #3
I have been doing NoS since May 12th. I have definitely noticed some big changes such as - feeling more comfortable with smaller meals and a HUGE decrease in the craving for sweets. This is the most unbelievable thing for me because I've always thought of myself as someone with an insatiable sweet t...

Congratulations Jamie! Thank you so much for posting. You and I are the same height so it's great to see that it's working for us shorties as well. :D I have about 10 pounds to go to my goal and it's also a nice reminder that it doesn't happen overnight- not even in a few months. I love to hear when...

Day 15: Success! B: coffee & 1/2 L: salad with cheese, garbanzos & bc dressing D: 2 pieces of Ezekial with almond butter. Feeling yuck and bloated tonight. Puffy. This may be because although I've been doing my Callanetics I haven't been doing cardio. I'm going to need to add that back in and see if...

Hi Blue! :D Thank you for checking in! The agent search is chugging along. It's going to be a much longer process than I thought so now I'm just sort of in a groove, working it in between my job search stuff. In some ways, knowing I can't possibly get it done within my original time frame has freed ...

Hi Gail, I also found in the beginning to really focus on the HABIT itself- rather than what I was eating and how much. I ate 3 big plates a day of whatever I wanted so I would have no feelings of deprivation whatsoever. As time went by I naturally began to make healthier choices and the weight bega...

Thank you Blue! :D I really am excited. I am feeling a lot more relaxed around food and finally making some healthier choices. I haven't weighed myself because I don't want to be emotionally affected if the number isn't what I hoped- but I know I've lost weight. I can see it in the mirror. I have be...

I found when I first started NoS that my meals were rather large and unhealthy. However, over time, as the "thrill" of eating former forbidden food wore off, and also as I learned to deal with my emotions better (as opposed to bingeing because that just wasn't an option on N-Days) food fell into it'...
