Well I have to say the "cravings" issue is much better. I'm wondering if teh heavey period issue is the deal. I made a nice beef roast and I feel a lot better. I'm going in the end of the month to talk about an ablation or possible hysterectomy, it's getting that bad! And more frequent and loooonger...

Fqwan, give yourself some time to work into the new habits. And also, sometimes you just have to be little strict with that inner tummy toddler. Sometimes I find myself pacing the circle in my house that connects the kitchen/dining/living rooms. Around around, talking myself out of grabbing a snack ...

Welcome! I'm sorry to say, the way I had to get around snacking was to be tough with myself and just get through the first week. It does get easier the longer you noS. BUT, it's nice to know that the stuff that I liked to snack on, like crackersI could have at lunch, so it wasn't like I was missing ...

Wow! That was really nice of her. I bet the tree is beautiful! I have been looking into getting some houseplants for once.

Mavilu, it's interesting to hear that cravings are cultural... I think you are right! We have so many sweets and treats here that I think now a days you are expected to snack and have a dessert after every meal practically! I haven't commited this well to noS in a while, and I had a lot of slip ups,...

These periods are gettng so that day 2 and 3 I hardly leave the house because I overflow. And the overnights of these days (last night!) I leak all over and it's like a massacre. Thinking about getting endometrial ablation, maybe. Done having kids so no real reason to bleed (one of the major reasons...

Do you have diabetes? Or are you starting to get insulin resistance (which I have under control on noS)? Hang in there. I believe you can break this bad habit by gradually cutting back on the amount of sweets each day, gradually, until eventually you keep your sweet treats for teh weekend. I loved s...

Do you get the Monday Hungries?
It seems to me, that every Monday, (following some very tasty S days, of which I am learning to not go overboard, generally a bit of snacking and a sweet) I am just growly and annoyingly hungry for most of the day. Yesterday I was all hungry and grumbly, which I ignored, but it was really ANNOYING! ...

I totally get what you're saying. Now I think "what's the big deal with being a little hungry sometimes?" Why don't diet guru's and doctors tell us this instead of "have a healthy snack to 'ward off' hunger" ?? The longer I noS, the easier it is for me to ignore any hunger pangs or other such tummy ...

Jesseco, I've been nosing for the last 15 months (or is it 16 now?). Anyway, my first several weeks of S days turned otu to be a near bingefest, with me baking a whole cake and eating half of it in 2 days. Plus snacking on anything and everything. I have a huge issue (30 years or so!) of overeating,...
