I'm having a good week so far. Having my son do this with me is surprisingly great. He's such a wonderful little guy. I thought I'd be supporting him but he seems to be supporting me more. He's also walking with me, 3 mornings in a row. He is a morning person and chats with me the whole time, we wal...

Oolala - I made her do the meal planning and shopping with me this week. She does not seem to enjoy kitchen time the way my son does, he is already making meals for us. Yesterday was one of those easier days when meal times snuck up on me and I hadn't really gotten hungry yet. 1- healthy waffles wit...

Back to the N-days. It was a pretty wild weekend. I feel bloated and remorseful and a bit discouraged. I feel like my mood has bottomed out a bit too, nothing bad is happening, kids are good, husband seems good, starting a new project at work, which is always exciting. I even managed to see all my c...

I want to play too! My goal for the month is 90% compliance on N days, exercise of some kind at least three days a week and no weighing, just trusting the process, eating and moving my body in a healthy, loving way. June 1- 223.2 July 1- 1 S day 2 S day 3 success 4 success 5 success 6 success 7 Fail...

So, I deviated from my plan, and I'm noting it here. After grocery shopping for all these beautiful fruits and veggies, I didn't want to pulverize them in a smoothie. I made my daughter and I roast beef and muenster sandwiches with lettuce and heirloom tomatoes and horseradish mayo on a 9 grain brea...

They are pretty vile. My son brought home an oatmeal cream pie from school not too long ago and we split it. All I could taste was the chemicals, and I remember when other people would say they were disgusting and I though, what food snobs! I had a thing for the Swiss cake rolls too and the hydrogen...

Some days I am in the mood to eat really healthy and other days I really feel like I need a cheeseburger. I guess the beauty of NoS is that it contains the bad days in a moderate structure most of the time. So I might say on a Monday morning, salads for lunch all week! And then on Wednesday end up a...

I hope you're not too concerned with not having it all down after 6 weeks. A lot of people give up prematurely because of that and a lot come back a year or two later, sorry they quit when they did. You can start an exercise program no matter where you're at. Exercise might actually help. We're on ...

N-day fun abounds. I had a lazy, lazy weekend. I had a fabulous dinner at a new restauraunt. I baked potato chip cookies and cut up a whole watermelon and snacked all the live-long day. But now it's back to the 3 plate structure. I'm kind of relieved. So, I need to do meal planning and grocery shopp...

I'm back - I think I will start a June thread or maybe a non-month specific thread. Well I have been sort of playing with No S for 6 weeks now - Some weeks I'm all green and then I can't seem to have a single good day for a week - it's a bit baffling. I have noticed that the weeks that are easy, no ...

Thank you NoBS - I have been lurking in your journal, you are positively inspiring and a wonderful writer. KL- the good food/bad food regimented thinking is hard to get past. People who write about intuitive eating fascinate me. I have no faith in my food intuition at this point, making picking my t...

Thank you Sophia. I am wondering if maybe I should weigh on Fridays - give myself time to readjust from the weekend. Today has been hard. I am feeling run down and my plans for the day were completely turned around by a sick kid. I also feel like I disappointed someone and that makes me have big fee...

Scale subterfuge- So Monday is the day I weigh in. I have been 218-222 for a very very long time. This morning I am 225.4. My wedding ring is a bit tight, I feel bloated and unwell. My best guess is that this was my first non-low carb week in a few months and that the sodium in the chinese food on S...

So week one down. I really had no trouble this week, I think it might have just been hormonally a good week to start. I will weigh in tomorrow, but honestly my pants are tight. We ate out a LOT this week, I'm going to try to pare it back to one lunch out since we have another regatta and therefor 2 ...

So what have I learned this week? That the sweets I so desperately craved all week weren't all that fulfilling. That an extra glass of water can go a long way. That a fruit with my lunch feels like dessert. That I'm finding it difficult to decide on what I want to eat now that my options are close ...

I made it
through the wilderness... Well, I made it through the kid's regatta and the Thursday and Friday before. I think the only moment I wasn't sure if I was within the rules was when I had a coconut water on Thursday. It was 5:00, I was hungry and feeling depleted. I was shopping at Whole Foods and it was...

Day 4
Hi Eeyore and KL thank you for driving the welcome wagon by! I've been reading and lurking and this seems to be a very very smart BB. What interesting people seem to find their way here. So, Thursday, we leave for a regatta tomorrow right after school so I need to do a bit of grocery shopping and co...

Horker Stew spring/summer
Gosh, I'm nervous about writing this and starting a check-in, but I seem to do better with some sort of accountability etc. This is my first brush with No-S, I came across it in a Reddit comment. (immeasurable large online community/ time waster) Well, the more I read, the more I nodded my head alon...
