Isn't it amazing how much we can learn about ourselves and eating from something so "simple?" I love it! Great first month, I hope your second continues on this track :-). Thank you Merry - yes you are quite right, I am learning about myself! Without meaning to sound over the top, this has the pote...

My first month of No S
I have found this forum so helpful whilst doing my first month of No S so I thought I would write down a few thoughts as we near the end of October. - This is the most straightforward and easy to follow diet I have ever followed. In fact I don't really think of it as a diet, it certainly doesn't fee...

Hi I have been following No S since the beginning of October too. So far it is going very well, I have only had one red day. Can I ask if you have been on many diets before? I am in my 40s and have tried every diet going, have lost weight on all of them only to gain it back and more. I would say my ...

Thank you osoniye. I am so pleased this is working. Early days still for me I know, but I have a feeling that discovering NoS is going to be truly life changng! Halloween is not a huge deal in my town so probably just a normal day for me, and my birthday very conveniently falls on this coming Saturd...

I have just returned to this thread to remind myself of the many wise words written by all of you committed No S-ers. Coming to the end of a very - ahem shall we say - S weekend! - which has followed an equally very No S week - I was beginning to panic a little. And then I read through all your advi...

I'm just checking back to report a successful evening! I offered to drive, so couldn't drink, and no-one had a starter which helped me enormously, and when my friends had dessert I had a decaf coffee. I am actually amazed that I have achieved this. Also it was a later dinner than usual for me, I las...

Only 10 days left in October, Challenge Team! Still time left for some impressive streaks. Green Fridays, no matter how hard, make Saturday morning feel great. I shall bear that in mind when I am out having dinner with my friends tonight and trying to stick to one plateful of food with no dessert :D

Hi, I am new to this too, been following No S since the start of October. So far I am doing well, finding it easy to follow, its such a relief to not be counting, weighing or checking all of the time. In fact its taking me a while to realise that I can actually relax around food! I am so used to a l...

I'm glad you're getting on well, Bluebell. I'm finding it's working great as a system so feeling very happy about the possibility of sticking with this. How are you finding the S days? Hi ModBod S days are OK, I was worried I'd be frantic about eating but actually I'm not too bad. I definitely eat ...

Your slip-up was small - well done for stopping. If I feel really 'snacky' on a week-day, I head back to the kettle for another coffee or tea. Better to over-do that, than eat anything. The thing that you 'get' gradually is that it's the habit/rule of not 'eating' between meals that's important (no...

Hi Merry and thank you for your kind and thoughtful reply. This board is proving to be full of supportive and helpful folks! It is very reassuring to hear that you have been doing this for 11 months and have had to live through plateaus of weight loss. You have certainly shown stickability! This is ...

Bunsofaluminium thank you so much for your well considered and positive reply. I needed to hear that actually! Getting on the scales everyday, I had thought was a big no no. But the way you describe it could actually make it a positive thing. So rather than building myself up for a weekly weigh in a...

I'm in the UK too :D Hi! We are in Hampshire. Nice to know it works over here too! :lol: I had a small slip up today, a square of dark chocolate and a handful of unsalted nuts. This followed 4 perfect No S days so I am trying to just move on. I felt so hungry, tired and cranky and am so used to rea...

Re: Fellow Newbie!
Hi Bluebell... I'm new too! I started No S as of last Friday (31 Sept) and it's going pretty well. The no snacking has been wonderful - to not be crazy about food all day, and to then really enjoy proper meals has been a breath of fresh air. I find the 'no sweets' the challenge, and have ended up h...

Thank you so much for the replies, I really do appreciate it! And very reassuring to be told that my feelings are completely normal. Interesting what you say about the scales and also about calories. I take on board your comments. Maybe I am being too hard on myself. Thanks again, really helpful. I ...

Hi all I am new to this (I have a newbie thread with some lovely welcome messages) and I think I need a bit of a talking to from some more experienced No - Sers! Firstly, I am committed to this, I think it might just help me sort out my poor relationship with food once and for all. However I have so...

Thank you! Yes I am pretty good at preparing healthy meals, its the snacking that is hard! I never realised how many times I put food in my mouth until I tried not to! Wow I am a big snacker :shock: I am feeling very positive right now though, I think this is something I can do. LOL, I was shocked ...

Welcome! to a pretty cool way of living. Don't expect the pounds to melt off fast. In fact, I gained two pounds, but have now lost four, and I've been at it for almost five months. The weight is not coming off quick for me, BUT the change in my attitude towards food has come quickly and I learn som...

Welcome! Realize that it may take some of the same will to keep to the habits as it did to stick to a diet when old urges crop up, but at least you have great meals to look back on and forward to! That saved me SO many times. (I recommend staying away from the scale for several weeks at least.) Tha...

Thank you Rawcookie! I am actually feeling very positive, this feels like something I can do! No calorie counting! No cutting out anything! No swapping things I like for things I don't like! No cooking separate meals for me! Maybe, just maybe this will sort me out once and for all. I have the book, ...
