I keep thinking about No S in the back of my mind--the hardest part for me is no snacking. I have done no sweets in the past for months at a time, I know I can do that part. No seconds isn't a problem as long as I fill my plate adequately--it doesn't take all that much food to satisfy me at a meal r...

snacking
The hardest part (for me) of No S days is to not snack between meals. I tend to get headaches if my blood sugar gets low. Drinking milk, or even a purple cow, helps considerably. This is the plan for now, as I get back on track. (1% organic milk is rich enough for me.) 'No sweets' is the easiest to ...

Weighing in the 130s, not so bad really. But I'm short and have quite the muffin top. I really had been working on it until depression set in a couple weeks ago and threw me off. I will get back on track...No S-ing and Urban Ranger-ing, that's the plan. I'll be a Mall Ranger when the weather is not ...

Nearly Yearly Update
Clearly I wasn't ready to get back to No-S'ing when I posted last November. I believe that I am ready now. Today is Saturday so I have this weekend to re-read the book and get my mindset all ready for Monday morning.

Be Careful With That Sledgehammer
I got a sledgehammer (half-price!!) for my birthday a few months ago. I guess I overdid it and got a VERY sore back that just would not go away. Ended up at a chiropractor. Returned the sledgehammer for full refund. I am now getting my exercise in other ways. I think the shovelglove is a very intere...

Winnie, I also still follow the WW guidelines for balancing nutrition-- fiber, healthy oils, calcium, protein, fruits and vegetables, limit sugar & alcohol, vitamins, etc. That's the best thing about WW, but many who participate on the plan don't adhere to that part. I think it's the most important ...

Looking forward to Monday morning
It will be a relief to get back to No S eating tomorrow, Monday morning. I got the book last week and started on Thursday. I can say that I enjoyed Thursday and Friday, Saturday was OK, but went overboard today. Consequently tonight I don't feel so well. Will probably start logging in with a daily r...

Yes, caffeine withdrawal can cause me to have headaches, too. When I wean myself from it from time to time (and I have to do that very slowly) I always end up starting drinking tea again. I believe that I use it as a natural antidepressant. As long as I keep the 'dose' of caffeine consistent day-to-...

Thanks all for the replies. That is a good point about drinking plenty of water and flavoring it with a little fruit juice. I would go with grape juice--not a fan of OJ flavor. Actually I don't even care for straight juice and have always watered my juice down some anyway. I think that using sparkli...

Headaches and how to proceed
I attempted to start No S-ing on Monday and ended up with a terrible headache by evening, which had been building all day really. Ibuprofen was not even any help. Could have been withdrawal from sugar, which I had quite a bit of the week and weekend previously. I have been in the habit of eating OFT...
