Plus, maybe Reinhard will do another article or book some day and we can be his big losers.

The same for me.LauraAnn wrote:I've also noticed that when I'm on track I seem to get all my fruits and veggies in even without trying. What I have found by trial and error that, at least for me, a balance of food, carb, protein, fruit, veggie, dairy.... all represented... holds me longer and I feel much better.
Yes, YES, YES! I have not been able to put it into words myself, but this is IT! This is a big reason of why No S works for me. There is no reason to cheat, to rebel against the diet. We are in charge!LauraAnn wrote: I mentioned in another post that because I'm not rebelling against a diet that was telling me what I could and couldn't eat, that I am actually working and struggling with things that are inside of me. I'm examining why I chose to do the things I did. The triggers. The emotions. The fears. And I think that's a good thing. For the first time in my life I feel like it is ME who has the power. Or at least I'm getting there. I always believed myself to be weak, but that's not true.
I believe 100% that I will take this weight off. It might take me 2-3 years but I'll get there. But I want to celebrate along the way. Learn things about myself. So when I feel like I've arrived I'll realize I've been there all along.
Hope you feel better soon. God Bless.Airen08 wrote:Hello All!
I am sick too - sore throat, stopped up nose, ear ache, and head feels like it might explode. I'm actually quite the opposite of you, I don't have any appetite when I am sick. Today is no exception. Guess I can't post a menu today since I'm not sure I'll be eating much of anything. Yesterday was a great day...stuck to plan and wasn't hungry in the least for a night time snack. Have a great day everyone!
I love that!I have a string of paperclips hanging over my desk at work, and I DON'T want any red ones!

I like to recall something I heard a long time ago,So back again I come to the only sane thing that works for me. Hope you guys don't throw stones for me being such a dummy.
Excellent points! I had googled No S the other day at work and went on some web sites that did not have any kind or positive words for Reinhard or his diet, wonder what they and all the experts will say when we are all at out goal weights and healthy, we may just put the so called experts out of a jobblueskighs wrote:The other thing I just wanted to add is that I am realizing that NO S is an "experiential" rather than a "rules based" diet.
We are given, by Reinhard, some generic guidelines. But through our own personal experience we reconnect with our hunger, our appetites, our drives our own bodies.
No one is giving us a recipe, piece of paper, or instructions .. 2 oz of this 1 cup of that .... we get the chance to LEARN AND GROW out of our own DIRECT EXPERIENCE in NO S ... of course sometimes we fall down but what we learn cannot be taken away because it is each of our own individual DIRECT EXPERIENCE with our own body!
I think that is why it is so cool, S days then become a more "advanced" DIRECT EXPERIENCE ... through all of this we get to the point where we don't need someone to tell us that is too much OR that is not enough ... we learn deep inside of ourselves through our own experience ....![]()

Peachy,I've lost 21 lbs in 2.5 months but I have a long way to go....
Good for you to learn and then move on, sometimes, we tend to fail and then keep beating ourselves up for it, what is done is done and it cannot be undone, but with God's grace we can learn and move on! God Bless and have a blessed new start again today day!CrazyCatLady wrote:I blew it tonight. With the darned Amish bread...it was so good that I had one slice with dinner, then two after dinner. I feel overstuffed, and sad that I didn't just have a little, then wait until Satuday.
My first red mark for No S habitcal in May!
I'll take it as a learning experience, and start again tomorrow.

Congratulations! That is such a wonderful feeling..CrazyCatLady wrote:I'm skinny, I'm skinny! I have had a problem in the past with busting out zippers of pants from weight gain. I have not worn a belt in years...nothing was ever loose on me, because no matter what size I bought, I grew larger!
But today, I needed to wear a belt or my pants would have slid down! AND...I tucked my shirt in! I did not need to have it hanging out, flowing, to cover me!
Now no one laugh...cause I am still pretty chubby....but in comparison I am skinny!
I'm down to 220 pounds! No S WORKS!
