Noel,
Too funny! I'm so ready to put an end to this very long chapter in my life. I can't remember a time when I was not on a diet. How sad.

No S=No Scale
Having weighed myself for 40+ years, daily, & on some days multiple times..... Having subjected myself to weigh-ins at Weight Watchers, TOPS, etc.... Having decided that this piece of equipment RULES my state of mind..... I've added a new line to my HabitCal: NoScale. Today being Day 1, I'm taking t...

It's funny how things work out. I was worried about NOT having pie with my friends and then NO one had pie-so, no issue there. I was worried about going to the beach and having today be an S day after the weekend. Well, I messed up my back putting in the veggie garden so we will just call my mother-...

Hey OrganicGal, I noticed that I've been getting hungrier lately and have added a bit of bulk to my meals. What is funny is that the first week I was so loading my plates that I couldn't even finish! One wonderful thing about NoS is leaving behind awful non-foods like fat-free half and half and usin...

Welcome Cathis4Him, I can't imagine owning a bakery! Talk about temptation. My first S weekend was pretty much a gluttonous rant and I gained 4 pounds. My second was more by the book. I ate my 3 meals and then had an incredible dessert from a French bakery. On Sunday I did go a little snack-happy bu...

Ate stuff I would never dream of eating before because it would be too hard to count the points. Tonight out with dear frie...

I guess we have just conditioned ourselves to want that little bit of extra-at least I have. Congrats on the h...

Now I'm a complete week on habit on my habitcal. I guess I'm an obsessive weigher. There is a scale to hop on first thing in the morning. My weight has gone up and down but is actually about the same since I started. But, no fear, I'm thrilled with NoS. I've eaten stuff in the last 3 weeks that I've...

Godiva Victory
Well, I had a real victory yesterday. Went with dh to the coast overnight and stayed in a lovely bed and breakfast. There beside the bed was a Godiva chocolate. All I could think of was that I wasn't going to let that little square of chocolate keep me from getting a green day on my HabitCal. What a...

I could have written your post. My biggest thrill was this morning when I was down 3 pounds from last Monday-but that equates to only 1/2 pound over all. I think we are all young in the area of experiencing freedom to eat without counting portions or choices or points or forbidden foods, etc. (excep...

Hey Becky, I did more mindless-or should I say purposeful overeating yesterday than Saturday. Still I'm down 3 pounds from last Monday. But to put that in perspective I was UP 2-1/2 pounds last Monday from my starting weight. I was just thrilled to get on the scales today and NOT have gained at all ...

Still looking at a much calmer and less stuffed weekend compared to last weekend. Yesterday after work I went to an incredible French pastry shop with one of my daughters. We picked out 4 amazing desserts and made fresh coffee. I enjoyed bites of each which still totaled less than one dessert. What ...

Would love to take Reinhard up on that suggestion of adding a weight tracker to HabitCal. That way we could weigh or not and have a place to post it that only we can see. I would love that! When ever I think I want to write my weights down somewhere, then I get paranoid that someone-like my dear hus...

Hey All, Hey Becky, Hey Diane, I know in the book it says not to trade S days for N days because then you have given yourself permission to take that option. He says it is better to keep the days as a failure, learn from your mistakes, and move on. I like that. I think the same way about exercise. I...

I really liked the comment: "One could easily say; "I'm so stuffed but, I just need to try that cake. Would you mind if I took a piece home with me?"

deealison and Becky, That sounds like a great idea. I wonder if I could MAKE myself not weigh until Saturday morning. By the way, although this was a daughter's birthday, and I'd planned to make it an S day, she ended up going out with friends and I ended up heading downtown with her cake and strawb...

Now have to recover from my S days. Actually looking forward to having the fence around me. After doing Weight Watchers for so long, this first weekend was more freedom than I chose to use in a healthy way. I ate so much that I didn't even enjoy it. Will do more strategy for my next S days. Actually...

okay okay okay. Now I need to read more about S days. Was up a couple of pounds this morning after "enjoying" my first Saturday. I've read enough to know I'm not supposed to weigh all the time, but realistically it is hard not to. Maybe No S should stand for No Scale! Still didn't eat nearly as much...
