Mostly back on track today. One fail was that I had two squares of dark chocolate between breakfast and lunch. Which of course means fail for the day....but I am not letting that mess up the rest of the day. I didn't sleep much at all last night (I often have insomnia) and I have sworn off coffee an...

I haven't been having as many headaches, but that's probably because I'm eating more often :( Headaches are from low-blood sugar and more unavoidable stress, I think. I just get headaches easily, too. Advil doesn't help. I'm going to try tomorrow to see how it goes. Purple cows between meals for now...

I've been having a lot of low blood sugar headaches, therefore I'm not doing so well lately. Hoping to do better this next week.

I'm back after being gone for awhile. We're about the same height and size I think. My weight is around 140 now.
We are back and we will do this and we will be OK!

I'm back. Having a decent weekend. Ate a swirl frozen yogurt at Costco. We brought home one of their tasty rotisserie chickens for dinner. Thinking I'll make a salad here in a few minutes.

I've been on again, off again all year so far. I'm disappointed with myself that I haven't stuck with this like I had planned. However, today has been good so far. I'll take this one day at a time.

I trailed off for the rest of January and did not do well at all.

For myself, I prefer to not use New Years Day as a holiday. I do count New Years Eve as a holiday, but the next day (January 1st) is a new, blank slate and I like to get the year off to a good start. That's just what feels right to me.

Finished this past week very well. I've been much busier than usual and that's a good thing. These next several months are going to stay quite busy too, so No S eating is perfect for a busy lifestyle I believe. My resolution is to stick with No S all year and just see where it takes me.

Well, Gingerpie, I did well during early December, and the end of the month I was pleased with. The rest of the month was quite the disaster. However, today brings a brand-new, blank canvas. Today is off to a good start! I like to see New Years Eve as a holiday (S Day); and I feel that, for me, Janu...

Finishing out the week as a success. I feel good about a sensible December. I don't know why it's clicking for me just now, but I'm glad about it. :) I'll be back soon.

Last week I did pretty well, but not perfect. Starting off this week with Monday and Tuesday being successes, plus today so far as well. I have started using a different scale to weigh myself. The old one needs a new battery--going back to an old scale that doesn't need batteries. Weighing 132-133 t...
