"No food, snack or dessert can make me feel as good as it will to lose weight"

Have a great day!!

It's really true.

I remember when I was in high school, a mere 150lbs (thought I was a cow back then at that weight :roll: ). I wish I could remember how it felt to be at a healthy weight like that. Right now I'm 234.5lbs and I feel like a blob.

Now here I am noSing since Dec. Things have really changed for me, I feel freed from food. My body is so much happier digesting 3 meals a day and my insulin resistance has improved. I betcha my pancreas is a whole lot happier not having to spill out insulin all day long, eh?

I don't feel bloated and nasty, I am much less fatigued throughout the day.

But now, with this awakening, I have these blobs of fat, belly rolls, chunky thighs, very large rear, and they feel foreign to me and I want them GONE and that has been a large motivation. I've also stopped weighing myself so much, typically on Friday's or Saturday morning if I remember. I do the mirror check every day and I don't beat myself up about it. ("Still chunky? Yep. Better keep on NoSing!!")

That was a great quote. :)

Amen Ozarka! But the great part about this program is that sweets aren't ever totally off limits - only for a few days! I really enjoyed my first two S days since beginning this program. And what I love about No S is the guilt is gone! Yay! I was so tired of beating myself up!

That's a good quote. Here is a similar one I read on someone's fridge. Nothing tastes as good as thin feels.
I hereby command you: Be strong and couragous; do not be frightened or dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go. -- Joshua 1:9
