Weekly Check In
4/8-Sat-Weekly weigh-in: 217#; down 1 lb. in last week. 1 year anniversary of being retired today. Good for an S-day. Not pleased with my walking this past week, my habitcal has 5 straight red days in a row, but 4/5 Green for NoS, so that balances it somewhat. On Wed, I was sure it was going to be m...

Glass ceiling
For me, my drink ceiling on NoS days is one. Two will always contribute to weight gain in my case if it occurs on five straight days. But I think Reinhard's ceiling is perfectly acceptable.

His team, Dufur Rangers won, they're rated #1 in state and were state champs last year. Team they beat was on...

This may sound very old-fashioned, but... why keep any snacks at all at home ? Just don't buy them ! Love your rational thinking. I'm a fruit lover, would rather just keep fruits available in case a snack is "needed". Better than a humongous bag of chips/popcorn or a whole pack of Oreo cookies(guil...

Re: Favorite yoga class video online offers
Edit: A word for the wise, before delving in - yoga suffers, I'd say, from a halo of spirituality and healing promises. I believe there's truth there, but it also blunts our critical sense. Like any physical exercise practice, yoga can lead to injury. Here's an excellent series of resources on the ...

Hi stoogeswoman, Okay you're got four shovelglove days in a row. That's a decent start. Don't try to lose all the weight in one bite, so to speak. Go for small victories or habit changes. Myself, I'm shooting for five No S days in a row. So far, I might have three, but's usually two. So don't beat y...

The Walmart Workout(or Diet)
Saw this a few weeks back and thought it was interesting. You could also call it The Walmart Diet. In a nutshell, a morbidly obese Dad walked one mile to Walmart to get healthy food for each meal, then walked home. Did it three times a day or six miles a day. http://twentytwowords.com/this-dad-lost-...

Hi! Welcome to No S! A mid-afternoon pause for something definite to drink helps - be that tea, coffee, herbal, hot chocolate - just stopping and focussing on the drink is a good one to try. Also, make sure you eat enough for lunch. Before No S I used to have a snack at mid-morning, mid-afternoon, ...
