I guess I can tell when I've eaten too much simply by the way I feel. At that point even the idea of food doesn't appeal to me. Of course, it fades away when I become hungry for next meal, but I learn from it. I'm looking forward to my trip this weekend. It should be fun, and I'll get to try some ne...

I noticed this morning that I've actually gained some weight recently, although I don't know if it's from all my indulgences while on vacation, the amount of food on my normal plates, or "feminine" issues. I also haven't been sleeping well, although I think that could be fixed with new pillows or a ...

Saturday was pretty calm, S-wise. Today was heavier and I'm feeling that tonight. Maybe it's part of my body getting used to less food and fewer sweets. I definitely could have saved the ice cream for later this week. I'm also wondering if Memorial Day should be an S-day for me. It's been a pretty q...

I just came back from spending a week with my family across the country and while I had good intentions on following No-S there were some failures.

I don't know that I can completely take all the credit for it. In 2007 I was diagnosed with PCOS and the doctor started me on Metformin.

I think I've been losing some weight recently. I ordered a shirt in a size L from a place where I normally get an XL and it fits pretty comfortably.

I may be one of the outliers here, but most days of the week I have a bowl of cereal (often Honey Nut Cheerios or Raisin Bran) with 1% milk and a banana for breakfast.

Thanks, Oolala. I do indeed try to be rational when something like this happens. There are going to be times when I end up with a habit "failure" and I'm still surprised at how far I've come in resisting the WTH effect.

Today is already a red day. We had a meeting at work, and when I first went in I resisted the bagels (since I had already had breakfast a few hours before that) and just picked up a glass of grape juice.

Two green days in a row after a heavy weekend. I'm noticing some good changes in my body again, and I plan to stay away from the scale for a few weeks.

Hi, Oolala. Yes, I do get hungry for my meals. It's almost 7 hours between breakfast and lunch and about 5 hours between lunch and dinner. The mid-morning snack habit was actually easier to break than I thought it would be last year. If I find that hunger at work is too much for even tea to help wit...

Green day, although I am feeling a little too full from dinner. I know I need to start paying more attention to the food on the plates! I did get my usual 30-40 minutes of walking in. I struggled mid-morning with hunger but tea helped me through until lunch.

Another red day. I brought some treats into work and ended up cutting up the rest of the cake and putting most of it into the freezer. Some of it also ended up in my stomach. Could have been worse. I didn't give in to WTH and stopped at the cake. So, I guess No-S has taught me some self control. Las...

If someone in my department brings treats in, I will go and have a look at them. Often I'll find a cookie or brownie to take and put it in a bag to save for the weekend.

After almost a year on No-S and reviewing my S-days over the past several months, I've come to the conclusion that I may need to implement a mod for the S-days.

Yes, it does indeed get better. Today is Sunday, though, right?
