Hello all...

Post by Drgnfly423 » Fri Dec 14, 2007 4:42 am

I heard about the No S diet on another forum and had to check it out. I read the whole homepage yesterday and I'm a convert. Today is my first day. It was a success. Just say NO to snacking. That will be my biggest challenge. I work in an office and this month is the worst for food gifts from vendors.

Since today was so easy I'm looking forward to tomorrow!

Welcome and good luck!

I too work in an office full of Christmas treats. I treat them as meals. I eat one plate of treats for breakfast and one plate of treats for lunch. If they are appetizers, I still use one plate. I just stay away from the sweets and soda/punch.

Thanks for the welcome! I had great success this Th and Fr. It felt good! I love updating the calender with "Success!" This weekend was exempt for me. Today was my Sisters b-day and I made the cake! Tomorrow I'm attending a cookie exchange...that will be more challenging. I know I can do it!

Welcome - you're gonna love NoS! I work in a school and my students bring in all kinds of homemade goodies for me. Other teachers keep the teachers' lounges well stocked with goodies. It's just a difficult time of year no matter where you work (or don't!) Remember, the weekends and the special days make this doable!
