Everyday Systems

Tomorrow I'm going to start my second attempt at no S. The first attempt a couple of years ago was not very successful because I ate far too much at mealtimes and I didn't track my habits. Last year I lost 21 pounds with ww - over the last 6 months I've gained back about 14 of those. I'm not prepare...

I know exactly what you mean! I can start snacking easily (I have done the last 2 days!). The thing that has put me back on track today is all the support I've received on the daily check in when I've been doing well - I didn't want to admit failure to the people who've been supporting and encouragi...

Success today!! Hurrah!! I've had two failure days so it was really important to make today a success and prove I can do this. Going for another success tomorrow

Well done! Keep up the good work, Mimi! And thanks for all your support

oh dear - I'm having a failure day. I managed to resist all snacks offered to me during the day, but got home and was v hungry. Tried coffee and apple juice, but still hungry so snacked. Never mind - will start again tomorrow. I'm definitely not giving up after 13 days.

The weekend was better than last weekend, but I could still reduce the amount of sweet things I eat. Had success today though and I've lost another pound! I'm not doing so well with exercise, but have decided to concentrate on the diet habits first and then introduce the exercise habits next month. ...

Another good 2 days. Went out for a meal tonight, but only had the main course and didn't touch even one marshmallow from the kids desserts! This diet really does make you think about what you eat - I didn't realise I picked at food so much - during cooking, making lunches, picking at what the kids ...

Hi Mimi,

I wanted to say a direct thank you for the support you've been giving me and thank you for giving me the time when you have other, more serious, things on your mind. I hope things go well with your brother-in-law and I'll be thinking of you.

Thanks Mimi - I am trying to use the habit cal, but think I need something more immediately visible. I'll try using the year calendar in my diary. I am doing well with the no S days this week - it's one week since I found this diet and I've lost 2 pounds! And that includes 2 S days where I did prett...

too much food this weekend. I just slipped back into my old habits too easily. I need to make sure that I remember the 'sometimes' on S days. Next weekend I'm going to plan in a treat on each day, but otherwise stick to the rules. Looking forward to tomorrow (even though it involves a painful visit ...

Oh dear. Didn't quite make it through my second day. Had to eat my lunch early so starving by 4.30 and had to snack to keep going. Need to make sure I eat enough at lunch to keep me going, and try to eat later - not so easy some days!

Made it through my first day!

thanks everyone - that really helps

I've been hating my eating habits for the last few months and have become more and more despairing about my ability to lose the extra pounds I've put on over the last few years. I feel as though finding this site today was a sign and I'm looking forward to tomorrow when I will begin to eat positivel...
