No Snacker, I'm glad you posted what you are eating on the S days. I think you are doing great!! If this were mine, I would be fine with it. You need to stop beating yourself up. Keep reading that verse you have posted! I repeat, YOU ARE DOING GREAT!! Thanks for being my No S cheerleader. Love you, ...

Have a great week!

Welcome to "No S" I'm pretty new too. I just made it to day 22 (with no failures). You are right, it is a breath of fresh air. I have such hope and confidence that this is the answer for me and my DH, and for you as well. You might want to start a daily check in, and check out the HabitCal, that's b...

Day 21, 22 Saturday and Sunday S days Saturday Funeral and wedding and work. Two desserts at the funeral. Wedding I couldn't make the reception because of work, so I sent DS to get ice cream just before work. Enjoyed it. Birthday party (DH) with ice cream cake yesterday. Nice to be able to enjoy it...

We are all definitely a work in progress! Yesterday was an over the top day, but a light seemed to turn on when I was in agony and not happy with the day. I have come to love feeling great during the week and am coming to hate how I feel when I go over the top on S days... Trying to pay more attent...

Woooo Hoooo Sweetness good for you doing this for 21 days! I agree 9" is probably best long term if I put fruits and veggies on it. Thankyou!! Today was a good day, enjoyed my desserts, but had 3 good meals as well. I'm going to stick with big plates for a while, starting to leave some food sometim...

So glad your book arrive...it really has made a huge difference..something about having the actual book in hand...I'm browsing thru it again.. Kind of like reading the Bible, you always, always say wow something new and exciting.. Hope your date night was fun! Here's to a great, busy weekend.... I ...

MY Dh told me I cant start using smaller plates for N days until 21 days is up. I am planning on going to 9" plates, and maybe eventually to 6 1/2" plates??? I am doing well on keeping my N days very strict, and I hope to be able to continue that, so I can keep my S days whatever! I was so ready fo...

Sweetness

I am so happy to say I am in the 21 day club. Today is day 21, I know its not over yet, but its an S day!! I lost 3 pounds the first week one pound the second, this week I gained a pound, but I'm working on habit not the scale. So I have lost 3 pounds and kept it off. I am really enjoying No S. Tell...

Sept 9 day 20 SUCCESS!! A good day! No S book finally arrived. I like it. Went for an extra walk to the grocery store, a little more than a mile away, so that's about 4 miles today. Date night with my DH, to a movie, smuggled in my healthy popcorn and a sandwich again so I could make it an N day. T...

Day 16 success so far 3 miles walked today. Im ready for the weekend! My goals this weekend are to have 3 meals and let the seconds, sweets, and snacks fall where they fall.

Day 18, Day 19 SUCCESS!! I am beginning to really like the color green! I had 3 delicious meals today. I walked 30 minutes. I did Flylady baby steps to start... today my kitchen sink is shiny, my dishes done and kitchen floor cleaned. I am a happy camper. God is good. We had a good team and prayed ...

Way to go!!

Awesome 17 days on track!! Sorry I bombed out on our commitment to 1 s each on our S days last weekend...I guess over time it will happen for me. I think we all are on a journey and will find what is working for us and over time fix what isn't. I do know that I'm finding not eating diet sized porti...

No Snacker, I think if you beat yourself up about things that's the worse thing about S days for you. You are doing well and succeeding! Hey, Buddy. Have a great week! Just wanted you to know that I did do one of each S on both S days! I just kind of blew it Monday and today, though..... Good for yo...

Day 17 SUCCESS!! I'm getting pretty good about resisting temptation to snack. Mostly I want to make it to 21 days, otherwise I would have given in!! I found that if I'll have some ice water with lime or a little OJ and stevia, it helps a lot. =D :P I have been getting out for a walk at least 30 min...

Oh wow this is a great idea..we use the coconut oil but have since run out and I never thought about making my popcorn with it...I'll give it a try I'm sure it gives a great flavor. Sounds like a well planned out date night... Sometimes I put a little butter in with the coconut oil and it gives it ...

Sweetness

One thing I remember Rienhard said/wrote in his podcast about S days gone wild, that we could go ahead and start with 3 square meals on S days for starters, at least for a place to start, because if I dont even have meals to start a structure for the day, even if I do have snacks, I think it goes w...

Day 13 SUCCESS!! I didn't take a walk today, but I did one of my housecleaning jobs, the house with 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, its a big house, and it takes me about 6 hours. But even after dropping only 4 pounds I have more energy. I'm looking forward to losing 20 more and see how much more energy I...

Sweetness

"only about half an hour"? Half an hour is excellent sweetness. I was going to say that I wish I had a lake to walk around then I remembered we have a beautiful glen not 5 minutes from the house and I almost never go to walk there any more. Must take advantage of it again, very, very soon. I had to...

Sweetness, If that works for you, then do it once a month! So far for me, I am wieghing daily but I may go down considerably later on here. I agree the scales can also be a painful experience when were doing it slowly, My wieght loss slows as I reach more of an ideal weight. Scince I have done this...

Sweetness

Yay! good for you! :D Thankyou, another green day for me. Day 12 SUCCESS! I'm going to start tracking exercise. I walked around the lake by my house today= more than 3 miles. I have done some exercise every day since I started, walking; but some days only about a half hour. I think I walked all the...

About making something special this weekend... I decided a long time ago it was best for me not to make desserts, its just too hard for me not to eat them all. Even if I put them in the freezer, they call my name. But I will probably go out for an ice cream some time on the weekend, and I love cooki...

Thanks NoSnacker! The book is pretty helpful! How do you feel about getting on the scales? I can see you have lost weight in your signature I got on the scales this morning and I am down to 195.8 lbs thats 3.4 I even ate a whole hamburger and a largish portion of tomatoes and onions with olive oil ...

I don't think that is in the book, but you have an awful crazy schedule. I know what you mean, when I go to my Bible study on Wednesday night we leave the house a little before 7:00pm so when I get home it is closer to 9:00 and I always feel, I should have something. Oh, you could have juice when y...

How about a having lunch (possibly even breakfast, too) later than usual? E. g. breakfast at 9 am, lunch at 3 pm and dinner whenever you get back from your meetings? Or you could plate your dinner at 5, eat half, and then eat the other half when you get back. Thanks, Anoulie, The first suggestion w...

DAY 10 SUCCESS!

I especially enjoyed dinner today. My DS wanted me to teach him how to cook. We had poached salmon with dill sauce, oven baked sweet potato "fries" and asparagus. Yum!
It was also a beautiful day today even though it was cloudy. Went for a walk by the lake, about 2.5 miles.

Sweetness

Hey...let's make a pact to have a totally sane weekend this week. I will do the one of each S. Is that both days or one of each S over the two days? ha. Not trying to make rules or anything. Just wondering if it truly will help a bit in the area of crazy S days for us! I was thinking of both days: ...

Day 9 SUCCESS Funny stuff I planned my lunch, but had to eat it in stages. I hope that's OK. I was out shopping, and brought a salad in a bag to eat on the way between stores, intending to buy a piece of chicken to go with it. But I got hungry before I got to the store with the chicken. I would hav...

I find it easiest to stick to the same basic strucure as weekdays, and then add in S treats as I want to. I keep exactly the same breakfast, 2 slices of toast, a yogurt and a banana and have a clearly defined lunch and dinner. This helps prevent S days turning into a snack-athon all day, although I...

Today, an S day for me I ate something I had not eaten for months -a burger and french fries. I ate half of a large 10 oz burger with cheese and most of the fries.

I'm new here, but I think its great that this is working for a self confessed former binge eater, that you can be maintaining your weight and not gaining. You actually lost a few pounds and are maintaining, right? So if you keep this up, losing a few pounds and maintaining, eventually you will find ...

Bride,

Thanks everyone for making me feel welcome! Day 5 success funny stuff: It happened again that after I took my supplements with a little yogurt, that I wanted to eat everything in the kitchen.
