I started losing weight the first week. For most meals, half of my plate is fruit or veggie, or beans/lentils, relatively plain (seasoned but not creamed or buttered). However, I have included some indulgent meals like you describe, too. I think part of No S that works for me is being able to eyebal...

Good advice jenji, if I'm offered a snack or a sweet during the week I try not to go into long complicated discussions about NoS and dieting, I just say 'no thanks I don't snack between meals' or 'I only eat dessert on the weekends'. It helps reinforce to myself what kind of habits I have for eatin...

One piece of advice I read somewhere that has stuck with me is to incorporate changes into your identity. You are not depriving yourself, you are just not that kind of person . "I'm someone who likes to eat at mealtimes." " As I get older, I don't drink soda anymore. It taste sickly sweet." "As a bu...

Stressful day, but green. I love when I can prove to myself that scary and hectic work events do not have to change my eating in any substantive way. I did not get lunch until 2:45, but I had a little juice at 1:00 to tide my over. Sushi for lunch and dinner: supermarket sushi roll for lunch and rea...

Green day today. Full plates, but still green. I just had steak and black bean tacos for dinner. I ate my lunch in two sittings, because I got interrupted, but it was only one plate. No exercise yet, but I am hoping to finish a grant request tonight and then do 15 minutes of SG or weights. JANUARY :...

I am also trying to come up with a compliant treat for Friday. Some Fridays I've have one small glass of white wine to relax before bed and enjoyed it. However, I've found that if I have that wine while out and about, such as at a party, I am more likely to eat again later. It only works as my final...

Good news and bad news... the good news is that even on failure days, my lapses are small. I keep the habits most of the time. Also, I have worked several Shovelglove sessions into my routine this week, on top of walks and real snow shoveling. Bad news is that yesterday was another fail. Baking c**k...

I'm intending to do No-S all year. Is that what this challenge is? If so, I'm in. I've been on the system since late September, and I'm still working on getting 5 greens a week on my calendar. I do feel that some of the habits are getting to be automatic, such as not eating sweets during the week. T...

I served myself a small dinner, because it was rich (included fondue). But I impulsively ate seconds of the rice and beans when clearing up. Then I stayed up late listening to an audiobook and working, and before I went to bed, I ate some yogurt and cereal. I am not too worried because it was a day ...

My compliance in December wasn't all that great -45%- or so. It helped to participate in the December challenge and, more importantly, to make brief notes regarding the failures. It revealed some hard truths about my efforts. Specifically, that pretty often I don't really try all that hard. I'll ke...

I've thought of visiting family in Lynn and asking Reinhard to lunch, though not for oatmeal. I figured he might do it because I would then be gone and not start stalking him. I've always admired that he didn't try to turn this into an empire, though honestly, I sometime wish he would. Funny! There...

I haven't been weighing myself - thought I would give it a few days so as not to freak myself out with holiday ups and downs. I will this weekend. I did a little Shovelglove yesterday and today. Trying to add in listening to an audiobook to make it more enticing. I'm listening to Tiffany Haddish's b...
