Hi Debra, Sounds like we have similar stories re other diets and actually putting weight on over the last ten years. I hope you find your groove with No S and that you see a consistent weight loss together with gaining sanity around food and have found a way that you can sustain in the long term. Go...

Thanks for the replies. Going to not have chocolate kiddies cereal on N days. However the stop smoking is a huge deal in terms of definately quitting and staying quit so I will keep the mints on me at the end of the programme and get real old fashioned Altoids or something similar in a tin, and the ...

Mustloseweight

Hope everyone is well. My first question refers to stop smoking products. I did smoke but then vaped on electronic cigarettes which became an even worse problem. Through the health service I am on a stop smoking programme for twelve weeks and they have given me lozenges. I am taking this as OK becau...

Thanks guys

Jams, curds, and marmalades are S foods?

Love lemon curd, lime curd, blackcurrant jam and Seville orange marmalade.

Mustloseweight

Don't right off the day yet. Someone on here suggested taking each meal at a time. Draw a line and continue as if it didn't happen. You will get there. Everyone struggles to a degree.

Mustloseweight

I totally sympathise as I am the same as you in many ways.

Give it another go and GOOD LUCK.

Look forward to hearing how you get on.

Mustloseweight

One plate
Three times a day

No sweets
No seconds
No snacking

Except SOMETIMES on days that begin with an S

14 mins of activity on N days.

Come on me, it's not so hard!

Self pep talk over.

Mustloseweight

I haven't been on for ages! Just been catching up. I strayed over the kids huge summer holidays from school, but am back on it. Managed to maintain my stone loss though so not too unhappy. Really need to get some exercise into my daily routine, have some kettlebells gathering dust that will be my ve...

Mustloseweight

Thanks for the reply Sonya, I will look up the hacker site.

I hope you are having a good weekend and continue to have a good week ahead.

I certainly find that the more rigorous and regular my housework, the more I see the weight shift.

Thanks for your comments, much appreciated.

:? Signed in and had a good read of the boards tonight to TRY and motivate myself and get back into the groove. I have been flagging reds for so long now that there must be hundreds of bulls queueing up to get me outside my house! One of the things that sticks in my memory vividly about my last sust...

Mustloseweight

Wow! Reading this to inspire me to get back on the wagon so to speak. Well done Oulala!

Mustloseweight

Just wondered how you are getting on?

Good luck with your No S journey, I personally believe it is the journey of a lifetime and doesn't end just because the scales show us what we want to see

Mustloseweight

I'm probably jinxing myself because this hasn't happened for a while, but I occasionally have days when no matter what or how much I eat, I'm still hungry. I have no idea why this happens. I think it is called being a woman. I don't think I know anyone that doesn't have days like this, although I f...

Mustloseweight

Self-sabotage. Well what a topic! Does part of me not believe I deserve to lose the weight? Why do we do this to ourselves? Since stepping on the scales and discovering I had lost my first stone, I have gone totally off the rails. So cross with myself. It is like for days feeling an amazing sense of...

Mustloseweight

Just wanted to come on, as I don't feel the need to log on each day so much to report on progress.

It has been four months in total on No S with lots of red days! However I am over the moon to say that on weighing in yesterday morning, I have lost a stone exactly. So happy!

Mustloseweight

Sounds very do-able. At the risk of sounding like a No S traitor, I like the one treat a day and no S days. I could now probably forego the treat a day and have it Sat and Sun and restrict S days to one treat per S day with a meal, or occasionally if I am on a family outing or something rare and buy...

Mustloseweight

Good luck.

Mustloseweight

Haven't heard about it here in the UK but will search it out for sure, sounds interesting.

Mustloseweight

I was just wondering if anyone else found that as they did No S more and more they intuitively reached for water when wanting a drink as opposed to not particularly liking plain water before? I was a huge English tea girl, and found water bearable just about if I added no added sugar squash or cordi...

Mustloseweight

Great stuff! Thanks for sharing!

Mustloseweight

I suppose I must be! Every red day does centre around the three plates three times a day and even red days now are less consumption than regular eating was before. With the housework thing, I always used to do the bare minimum with my husband doing things like mowing grass and mopping floors. At the...

Mustloseweight

Lost another two pounds. Don't know how, as I have lost count of how many red days I have had. Maybe it's my housework as exercise initiative, it certainly makes me sweat all day!

Mustloseweight

I am going through a period of non-compliance right now. However, I have decided to go easier on myself. Added far superior shampoo and conditioner than I would normally buy, hair serum and new hairspray plus a posh shower gel/foam to this weeks shopping to start enjoying the small and simple pleasu...

Just bumping up this awesome testimony for those of us with a bit more to lose.

Mustloseweight

Has anyone gone from over two hundred pounds down to a healthy bmi on No S. Please identify yourself if you have, I need something or someone to look towards when my failures and impatience for a quick fix rear their ugly heads.

Thanks

Mustloseweight

Thanks for the replies. I could not make sweets, chocolate, cakes etc into a moral issue, nor by cutting them out completely do I wish in any shape or form wish to have a holier than thou attitude. I just have no self control whatsoever and two days with them makes it really hard if not impossible t...

Very inspiring post. Good luck!

Mustloseweight

Great article, thanks for sharing the link. I read it with much interest.

Mustloseweight

Aaaaaaaaarrrgh! I have officially lost the plot. My S days for my 40th and my wedding anniversary derailed me. Just as I thought, because I got a taste for some stuff not allowed on N days, I have not been on track for a couple of weeks now. I am getting to the 'looking at the Weightwatchers site an...

Mustloseweight

Oh dear, I tried swapping my muesli breakfast for a fruit smoothie, had two red days in succession. Think the muesli sets me up for the day. I probably have too much muesli but when I do, I stick to my three meals no problem. Need to seriously re evaluate as I feel I have lost the plot.

One S day a week on Sundays for June.

Mustloseweight

Hi everyone, With regards to fruit, I don't eat enough, period. On No S, at mealtimes, if it were a choice between another cheese sandwich and a banana I will be honest, the cheese sandwich wins every time. Well, two weeks ago I went down with tonsillitis even though I had my tonsils out as a child....

Mustloseweight

Isn't that No S, though? Three meals a day, no snacking, in the beginning you probably have some pretty big plates, but that's ok just no vertical stacking? It is in the book.

Thursday, Friday, all good.

Easter Saturday, looked like an N day. Now this wasn't planned to be an N day just no treats, sweets or snacks were good enough to tempt me.

Mustloseweight

You will get there eventually. I played with No S for ages then a lightbulb lit and it just happened all by itself. The weight is now dropping off each week. It does work, good luck.

Dear daughter is understanding why no sugar, brushing with a brush that flashes for the time she must brush for and using family friendly but grown up suitable antibacterial mouthwash. I also changed the toothpaste to one that hardens enamel called pronamel. Snacks for her are raw veg and I won't go...

Another two and a half pounds off this week. This means 8.5 pounds off in three weeks. Unbelievable. I am sticking to the rules religiously. Can't believe it, so very happy!

Mustloseweight

Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday all to plan!

Don't feel I need to do a daily check in any more but will post weekly weight loss on the other thread.

Wednesday and Thursday

Two successes! Yippee!

Even used my kettlebell for first time, but not for 14 mins, was dead after about five. Will see if I can do longer today and slowly build it up.

Just wanted some advice really. My daughter is saying she doesn't have any friends at school. She is an only child and refuses to do any after school clubs despite me suggesting it over and over again. It breaks my heart. I don't know what I can do. I have suggested that each day she approach a diff...

Hi all! I have been playing with No S for a while. However, over the past seven days, we have had to take my little girl to the dentist. My daughter is nine, and her teeth are really bad and she had to have four fillings. I felt a complete failure as a mother. The dentist said something that trigger...

Brilliant article, thanks for sharing.

You are very good at explaining things clearly and concisely! Your stats are a real inspiration. Thanks for reading and responding.

Is it no sweets as in sweet means dessert or the English word pudding? Or is it sweets as in England sweets are the American 'candy'. Or is it foods that taste predominantly sweet in taste? Confused.

Mustloseweight

Really frustrated with myself. I was spot on with eating yesterday, but today got assaulted by my daughters chocolate snack biscuits. I don't get why because it is genuinely the simplest plan out there. Fed up.

Think my name is really Paddington, better treat it as an S! Lol

Made from oranges and sugar. Tart and quite sour to the taste.

Is marmalade a sweet? Like sour orange jam.

Meal compliance will definitely be the initial aim. Just a secure yet sustainable and liveable structure I am sure will do wonders. Just need to get there!

Hi my name is Charity and I'm new to the No S diet. I've been doing it for about a month now and I really like it a lot.

Hi, I am a self-confessed all or nothing person! I don't think moderation is in my genetic makeup.
